One Sunday morning I snuck out of the house with some friends. We knew we would get into trouble so we all said we were going to each others house! So we headed off to the shops. We bough ice-cream, donuts and clothes. I nearly slipped over because I didn’t see the sign saying ‘Caution Wet Floor’. I was luck my friends were there. After the shops we went over to the public pool except you have to go with a parent and it doesn’t open on Sundays. We thought it would be so much fun so… we went in! I didn’t want to go in because my secret is ‘I can’t swim’. I still put my feet in and splashed with my feet. All of a sudden my friend came out and pushed me in! I almost drowned! I was shocked!

Luckily one lifeguard came in to clean up from the day before. He saw me and dived in and saved me. He yelled at me because we were in there when we weren’t supposed to be but I was happy because I was alive. When we got home we all got into loads of trouble. I mean, grounded for life sort of trouble! I guess I deserved it because I snuck out out and nearly got badly hurt.

My mum was very worried but happy at the same time because I was alright rather than being in the hospital!
