At
the bus stop the passengers huddled
into the shelter. It seemed ages before
the bus drew up. Then, just as Emily
and her mum were about to board, the
driver shouted, “Sorry, luv, we’ve
full up!” The doors squeaked shut,
leaving Emily and her mum on the pavement.
“Oh no!” complained Emily.
“That’s terrible”
and they set out for a long miserable
walk home.
Just along the road a huge yellow “M”
shone invitingly in the dark sky. Mum
suggested that a special treat of a
hot chocolate and a Big Mac might have
things better. But the queue reached
to the door and there wasn’t a
spare table to be seen.
