Breakfast or Lunch?
Why was the writer’s aunt surprised?
It was Sunday. I never get up early on Sundays. I sometimes stay in bed until lunchtime. Last Sunday I got up late. I looked out of the window. It was dark outside. “What a day!” I thought. It’s raining again. Just then, the telephone rang. It was my aunt Lucy. “I’ve just arrived by train,”she said. “I’m coming to see you.”
“But I’m still having breakfast,” I said.
“What are you doing?” she asked.
“I’m having breakfast,” I repeated.
“Dear me!” she said. “Do you always get up so late? It’s one o’clock!”
