One day I got very tired at school. I didn't want to go home. I ran down
the stairs and went out of the school. I didn't know where to go. So I went across the street and went to the river. I came to the bridge and went
over it to the other side of the river. I walked a little along the
river and saw a nice café. I walked into the café and sat at the table. People
went past the café and didn't come in. I was alone there. I finished my ice-
cream and went home. On my way home I walked through the large park. When I came home, I was tired more than after school.
