The Wrong Bus by Truong Vinh Son

Last week, I went to Dong Ha City with some friends. We went by bus and we wanted to go to the supermarket. But it was already lunchtime, and we had been feeling very hungry. So Bach, my friend, said, “ After getting off the bus, we can eat near the supermarket”. We agreed with his opinion.

At first, we were very upset because we were hungry and the weather was very hot. We had been waiting for the bus for 30 minutes before it came. The bus we needed was number 19. Then we boarded bus number 29. Ten minutes later, we knew we got on the wrong bus.

We were very alarmed about this. We asked the driver for the destination of this bus. He told that its destination was a hospital. We had to get off the bus and we waited for another one. The weather became rainy and it was windy. We took shelter from the rain under the bus stop.

Luckily, bus number 20 approached. Its driver said he was going to the supermarket. We were very happy. I thought It was an interesting trip.
