"Where is the bus?" I asked myself. I was going to be
late 1 the manager wasn't going to
be 2 . "Thank God, here it
is!" The bus 3 round the corner and I got on. Ten
minutes later I was walking into
the 4 where I work."Twenty-five past
nine. I 5 the manager doesn't notice. "
But no 6 luck!
"Smith!" shouted the manager. "Late again. What's
your 7 this time?" "I'm afraid the
bus was late, Mr Brown. " " 8 up earlier tomorrow! Anyway, go to
your 9 at the counter. We'll be opening
in a few minutes."
My
first customer was a pretty gril wearing a red dress. 10 her was a young man of about 25.
He seemed very 11 , and every few seconds he looked 12 the main entrance. The girl 13 about opening a bank account. I
gave her the necessary 14 and she walked out. 15 , I noticed a tall man by the
door, carrying something 16 with brown paper. Turning to my next
customer, I was terrified to see a gun
17 out of his coat. The next
moment a lound noise 18 my ears. Everything went black. I
was falling …After 19 seemed a very long time, I opened
my eyes and found myself in bed! 20 shaking from the memory of
this terrible dream, I got dressed and ran out of the house. As 21 , the
bus wasn't on time, and I got to the bank
at 9:25.
"Smith!" the manager cried out in a voice like
thunder." 22 of your excuses! Go start work at
once!" To my 23 , the first customer was a girl 24 a red
dress and behind her stood a man carrying something wrapped in brown paper.
The 25 ! Wasn't that surprise of my life!
