The Latest Fashion
One day, I had to teach a new English class. I read the list
of new students’ name. It was Kiddies’ group since they were
about 9 and 10 years old.
That was the first day of the Spanish carnival, so I wanted
to wear the most appropriate suit for the children’s class. Most
kids usually dress up at carnival, I thought. It would be more
interesting if their teacher was also in carnival spirit. That was
why I decided to wear my teddy bear suit and bring cuddly
toys in my box.
And that was what I did. I walked through the door happily.
The director watched me completely astonished. I smiled and
looked straight at her. With a man beside her, he said, ”Good
Afternoon. I’d like to introduce you to Mr. Mendez, the director
of Delta Company. He is one of the participants of the English
course that you will teach today.”
Oh my god! I nearly died! The secretary apologized to me
for the wrong details of my new class.

I really hate flying. Once, something happened to me. When I
was on board, the plane started taking on. It seemed that
everything was all right. But suddenly I saw smoke coming from
the engine of the plane. The engine was on fire and the plane
started to rattle. Suddenly the captain said to us in very calm
voice. “Ladies and gentlemen, we are having a little problem with
one of the engines. There is no need to panic. Keep your seat
belts fastened. We are going to return to the airport.”
You can imagine how frightened I was, but the crew was
fantastic. The flight attendants were really calm and told us not
to worry. One of them told me to relax and said that everything
would be all right.
A few minutes later, we were coming in to land. The pilot
made a smooth landing on the runway. It was over, and we were
saved.
I took a taxi and went home. From that day on, I decided not
to fly anymore.
