Read a
short story by me.. ;]
It was about
11.30, on a cold winter evening. A strong wind was blowing. Mary
Larson
was coming
back home from the cinema. When she was outside her block of
flats, she saw
glass on the
pavement. She looked up and saw her kitchen window broken! It was
late and
all her
neighbours were sleeping. She panicked but she called the police
on her mobile right
away. Two
policemen arrived within five minutes.
Together,
they unlocked the door and got into the flat. It was in a
terrible mess! Some
furniture
was upside down! Mary's clothes were lying on the floor and
her money and
jewellery
were missing! The policemen searched the flat, asked Mary some
questions and
wrote a
report. Mary spent that night at a friend's house and the
next day she got someone
to repair
the window and fit a new lock.
Three days
later, she went to the police station and found one of the
policemen, John
Edwards.
Unfortunately, he didn't have any news about the burglars but
he asked Mary out
for a cup of
coffee. Mary said ‘yes’ because she liked John. You
can guess the rest. Very
soon, they
fell in love with each other and decided to get married! Mary
never got her
jewellery
back but she found a lovely husband. And all this thanks to that
broken window!
