Title: 1 Sentence Summary:

John doesn't like to go school. Especially when it was on Mondays.  It was not because of having 

Monday  blues like most people had but rather, he did not want to have face the detestable Mr. 

Chew  whose lesson was on with him class was early every Monday morning. Unfortunately , John 

was not one of the favoured few. That morning, he was in an unusually cranky mood as he had 

woken up late and missed his breakfast. By the time he got to school, the class had already

 gone for their physical education lesson at opposite our school Jurong Lake Park.  After putting his 

school bag under his desk, He changed into his sports attire quickly and rushed out to join the rest of 

the class.

 The exhausting workout passed without a hitch and everyone trooped back to class for Mr. Chew’s 

lesson. As all of them were all getting fishing their books out of their bags ,when a loud scream 

shocked everyone. A girl in the class call Mary was crying in despair over not being able to find her 

wallet. She was frantically turning out all the pockets of her bag to try to find it in her frenzied 

attempts to locate her wallet. After fruitlessly searching for a few minutes of fruitless searching, she 

finally sank down on into her chair, visibly exhausted and  buried her face in her hands. The next 

moment, Mr. Chew came in. Seeing his her favourite student in tears, Mr. Chew walked over to her 

and asked her what the matter was. After hearing  Mary’s predicament, finding out the situation, 

Miss Tan began to conduct hisser investigation. Initially, she first asked if anyone had left the 

physical education lesson to come back to class. when the answer was negative and there was none. 

Thereafter, she told the class to think of anyone who was not with them throughout all the time 

lesson. Suddenly, Mary stood up and pointed at John, saying that he had gone to the PE class late. 

John was speechless. Mr. Chew insisted then that he was the prime suspect. Mr. Chew told him to 

stand up and interrogated questioned him relentlessly. Upon Mary insistence that John was the 

culprit. Mr. Chew was convinced that she had found the thief. She wanted John to surrender the 

wallet, which she was not able to do since she had did not taken it. Taking her non-compliance  to be 

evident attitude of a rebellious nature, Mr. Chew  made John stand outside the classroom in full 

view of anyone passing by. He told him that until he had returned the wallet, John would not 

able to go back to the classroom. 

Finally, half an hour later,  Mr. Chew came out of the classroom to call him in. He told him that Mary 

had found her wallet, which was actually inside her bag. Yet no apology was made. John was 

appalled. Even Mary looked sagely innocent, not bothering to even show signs of being sorry 

remorse. John felt that she must be punished for this. Ever since the from that incident,  onward he 

have nothing but hatred for this horrible and absolutely shameless pet of Mr Chew.
