~ A Lesson Learned ~

Michael, a shy but very smart student, told Thomas his classmate he would give him his History homework to copy sense he hadn't done his. He had did this just being kind. Although, he knew if they were caught they would both be punished. Thomas for cheating and him for allowing him to. They attended John Marshall high school. The plan was for Thomas to finish as soon as possible and return Michael's homework before lunch. He needed it before lunch because the homework was do in his History class afterwards. Lunch time came a Michael hadn't seen Thomas sense he gave him the homework. Two O' clock came therefore it was time for class. Michael stood nervously waiting for Thomas at the end of the hall. Asking every person that pasted him have they seen him and unsurprisingly they all said no. Ten minutes went by and he was still nowhere to be found. He stood thinking about what lie he was going to tell Ms. Brown, because he knew they would both be in trouble if she found out the truth. However, he didn't want to go to class with no homework because Ms. Brown would call his mother and she wouldn't be very pleased. Finally, five minutes later Thomas shows up, but get caught by an teacher. Sense he had been caught he knew he was headed straight to the principles office he ask could he go to the bathroom before they meet with the principle. The teacher agreed. Micheal then followed, he gave him the homework although it was wrinkled sense he had had it balled up in his jean pocket. Michael already very late and therefore they had no time to discuss where Thomas had been. When Michael entered the class there was an classroom full of students and no Ms. Brown. He asked his classmate where she was and they said another teacher had come in and told them she had had an emergency an will return soon, but until then they were to sit and remain quiet. Michael had made an mistake and somehow gotten lucky. Everyone makes mistakes, but everyone doesn't learn from them.
