Boom! I woke up as light was shining into my window. My books were on the ground because they fell, which woke me up. It was a bright day. Strangely, brighter than normal. I squinted as I looked into my alarm clock. 7:42. I got up, still squinting, and entered my sister's room. She was sleeping. I shook her bed as my eyes adjusted to the light. She woke up, looking at me, confused.
"It's 7:40!!"
I rushed into my room and picked up my clothes. I unplugged the charger off my laptop, wore my clothes and packed my homework, all at the same time. I heard my sister packing her stuff, I knew she looked at the alarm clock. I didn't want to be late for school because we were having the NWEA tests today.
We got out the door and entered the elevator. The elevator felt like it was going really slow.
We exited the elevator and walked out the door to find out that the bus wasn't there.
How is the bus later than us? I thought.
The receptionist dashed out the front door. "Kids, I think your bus left a second ago," she said.
"Oh no ..." My sister said.
"Should I call your parents about what's going on?"
"Sure, yeah," my sister said, "we'll go upstairs."
We dashed into the elevator, pressed "18" and waited. We got out of the elevator and open the door to our house. Mom came out of her room, ready to go.
"Let's go," she said.
Instead of going to the first floor, we went to B2. We entered the car and my mom turned on the engine. Suddenly, the car flew off.
We were turning into the last corner when my watch said 8:00, and the school bell rang. Me and my sister ran into the building, and I ran to my 4th grade classroom.
