Ashley’s mum said:
Come home straight after school!
It happened that Ashely paid no attention to what her mum said. After school she played with Amelie, she wondered home looking at all the shops’ windows and got home almost an hour late.
Ashley, I told you to come straight home from school. I had a surprise for you. Julie and her parents were here, but they could not stay long.
Julie was their neighbor and she moved with her parents to another town, a year ago. Ashley never saw Julie since then. They were best friends. Now, Ashely was very sad and felt bad for not doing what her mother told her to.
She would have loved to see Julie.
