Sample
Saturday evening, I was hit by an eighty-year-old neighbour with his walking stick!
Do you know what happened
I am a keen gardener and also a fish collector. I live above the McKays. At first I didn’t realise that the water I sent over my balcony every day ended up on McKay’s balcony and caused so much trouble. What’s more, when I cleaned my tanks, I directly poured the water out of my balcony, and the McKays would be as wet as if they had showered with their clothes on. They could hardly get rid of the smell of fish.
READ AND EXPLORE
Sample
This time, I poured water as usual. Then James McKay knocked on my door and hit me with his walking stick.
To tell the truth, the hit wasn’t serious, but I realized later that Saturday was the old man’s birthday, and I ruined it by making both the McKays and the cake wet through.
As a matter of fact, I feel very sorry about what I did. Therefore, I am not going to take things further with the police. I have also promised to change my ways from now on.
