On a warm summer day, the park which is located near our school was filled with children playing various games. The playground where many children gathered was bustling with activity. I met my friend Sarah, who was excited to tell me about her new puppy. She explained that her parents had surprised her with the puppy on her birthday which made it the best birthday ever. We decided to sit on a bench so that we could watch the children while we talked.
While we were talking, Sarah mentioned that she was nervous about the upcoming exams. She hoped that she would do well because she had studied very hard. If she passes all her exams, her parents will take her on a trip to the mountains. I reassured her that she would do great, as she is one of the smartest students in our class. As we continued our conversation, we noticed that the sky was getting darker, and we realized that it might rain soon.
We decided to head home before the rain started. As we walked, we talked about our plans for the weekend. Sarah said she would visit her grandparents who live in the countryside. She was excited because her grandparents always have interesting stories to tell. When we reached the main road, we saw a small shop that sold delicious ice cream, so we decided to stop and get some. While we were eating our ice cream, I thought about how much fun we always have together.
