Something That Took Place In School

     My friend Marcus is a very bright child, even though he acts stupid in school. But, he is extremely clumsy.

     Today we had mother tongue lessons. Some people in my class were in express Chinese instead of higher Chinese so we had to go up to the classroom in the fifth floor.Marcus, Royston, some others and me were in express Chinese so we had to walk up the stairs.

     "Hey Marcus, is there any homework?" I asked Marcus.

     "No, obviously no homework. If there was, I bet most of us will be in trouble." Royston interrupted.

     "Actually there is but the teacher said not to pass it up today."Marcus replied. We were looking at the time and it seems we are already late, so we had to rush up the stairs and quickly enter the classroom. We ran up the stairs as fast as we could, telling those around us to make haste too. We reached the fifth floor very fast as it was only two stories away.

     As we walked towards the door, Marcus just suddenly fell down! I looked at his feet, there was literally nothing around him but a flat ground. My classmates gathered around to see if he is okay, although most of them just laughed at him for tripping over a flat ground. Royston helped him get up and check if he had any injuries. Luckily there were none. When asked how did he trip over flat ground, Marcus just answered "I don't know!"  Hopefully he will be more careful next time, and not fall down for no reason at all.
