Have you ever done something stupid that made you feel so embarrassed that you wished you could just disappear? Well, that’s exactly how I felt, one cold Saturday morning last autumn.

I had gone to town to do some shopping, and as I was walking through the park on my way home to the stop, it suddenly began to rain. I ran into a nearby phone box as quickly as I could since I didn’t have an umbrella. It was raining heavily, but it was one of those short autumn showers that don’t last long, so I decided to stay in the phone box until it stopped.

A few moments later. I saw a young man walk up to the phone box, wearing a yellow raincoat and holding a tool box. I didn’t want to go out into the rain. so I picked up the phone and pretended I was talking to someone. I thought the man would go away, but he didn’t. He just waited patiently in the rain, watching me wave my hands about and act as if I was deep in conversation.

Luckily, the rain began to stop after about ten minutes. “OK, Mum,” I said loudly into the phone. “I’ll see you later. Bye!” I put the phone down. Picked up my shopping bag and stepped out of the phone box. “I’m sorry I took so long, ” I said to the man.

“Oh, I don’t want to use the phone, ” he replied with a smile. “I’ve just come to repair it. It’s out of order, you see. ” I felt myself go bright red in the face and I hurried away with my head down, feeling a complete fool. That was certainly one of the most embarrassing moments of my life!
