Suzzy had just returned from school, right when she heard the loud horning of the school bus. The bus driver was said to not have been available to pick up any kid up at morning, and rumours were that the driver got himself hooked up in something strange; a story that no one had shared its details yet.
While some parents asked some caregivers and neighbours to assist them in taking their kids to schools, some were furious enough to cancel other planned activities for the day even if it meant checking in late at work. These parents stomped the school yard, straight to the admin block and to a halt, they all began to demand an explanation from the school authorities regarding the situation.
The kids who always had to take hurried walks to school every morning felt indifferent about the incident because they could never relate to being picked up from a certain bus stop and driven to school each morning. There was no way such kids would have understood the disappointment.
For Suzzy, the incident needed a proper explanation served, she felt the school authorities would send a more appropriate apology in after they send some mail feedback regarding their academic results which had some errors. While she thought to herself of the possibilities that the driver could have gotten into trouble, she left room for strange occurrence as the rumours had it.
Suzzy dropped her back pack on the couch and walked out of the house to see for herself why the driver had come late. She met a few curious parents and their wards who were heading to the waiting spot in a bid to hear the driver's story. On their arrival, there came more disappointment as they only got an unapologetic driver asking why they were all looking unprepared to get to school and why they were late to the bus stop because to him, it still felt like morning; he wasn't late to any party.
Tough thinking but maybe, the driver really did get caught up in something strange and that sure messed with his head...
