Personal Recount

"Ding! Ding", the bell rang.
It was history lesson now. The whole class went up to the history room and I started to talk to Wei Xiang.
"Eh bro, want to slack in the girls toilet?" I whispered.
He replied softly, "Okay sure. I go and ask Brian to join in also, wait."
So the three of us went inside the girls toilet, located near to the history room. We went in one of the cubicles and chatted with each other. Out of the blue, we heard footsteps at the entrance. We all kept our mouths shut, not letting a sound come out from our mouth. I peeped my head out and my eyes fixed on the person boots.
I told Wei Xiang and Brian, "It is just the cleaner only, don't need to be scared."
She started to knock on the cubicle's door. And shouted, " Who is inside? Come out quickly!"
I choked out a girl voice but failed. In the end, we opened the door and received scoldings from the cleaner. Her words were like a thunderbolt out of a clear blue sky. We stared at her dumbfounded. An eerie silence now permeated the toilet. Not wanting to get scolded anymore, we ran as far as our legs could carry us. A siren rang through the whole school. It was time for recess. We went to buy food and saw the cleaner, went about telling what had happened just now. One of her friends, confronted me when i was eating. She nagged and everyone beside me heard it. I felt naked and vulnerable. I went off and Weixiang and Brian followed. We decided to turn ourselves in. We talked to Mdm Tay about everything that happened and she was counselling us. We shuffled our feets as we listened. We were grateful that she gave us a second chance and it doesn't come easily.
Now, i have learnt my lesson and know what is right and wrong. I will never do anything foolish again.
