     "Riiiiing!!!" the school bell rang shrilly, Kate, a cute but naughty plump girl was skipping home merrily as her parents promised to bring her to watch "Kung Fu Panda 2" at NEX. When she reached home, she greeted her father and asked where was mother.

    

       

               Apparently, her mother was going to be late but not to late for the movie. When she was watching a cartoon her father suddenly snored so loud that she nearly jumped out of her skin. "Now daddy is asleep. No one can play with me. Its so boring.... Ahhhh..." she yawned, "Wonder if theres anything to play with?" She walked to the laundry room to find things to play. She opened the cardboard and saw a box of matches. Lots of mischievous thoughts was floating in her head.

                She took the box of matches and started rubbing it against the match box as she seen what her relatives had done before. " Ck ck ck." she failed to lit the matches at first then finally she succeeded in lit ting one of the matches. But she carelessly discarded the match at the laundry basket the  discarded match turned the laundry basket into a miniature inferno.

                 She did not notice the fire behind her until she smelled some unpleasant smell and she turned. To her horror, the laundry basket was engulfed by smoke and flames. Gathering her wits, Kate crouched low and moved toward the living room. Her eyes were smarting and she felt as though her lungs would burst she hastily called her father. Her father hurled buckets of water at the fire. Within a short time, she had managed to douse the fire.

               After dousing the fire, he pulled Kate to the living room in a towering rage. Kate's father was indignant." What did you think you were doing?!!!" he demanded.

               "I...I...I was just curious. Please forgive me for my foolishness, Daddy. I promise that I will think twice before I do things." Kate hanged her head low and stammered.

              Even though Kate had did a foolish thing but she did turn a new leaf. Her father saw that she had proved her repentance through actions to atone for the wrongs he had done. Her Father was touched by her deeds and forgave her.

               Kate  always thought twice before she does things. It was definitely a valuable lesson for her.
