Funny Face

Last year, my mother and I left the house to go to the shopping mall. We took the elevator and when we were going to the garage, my mother remembered that she had forgotten the car key in the apartment. I offered to go there and get the key, but she refused my help.
I was waiting for my mother in the hall but she was taking a long time to get there. So, I decided to give her a fright. I went to the elevator door to wait for my mother.
Some people came, others left, but my mother… Where was she? But I am a good daughter and kept on waiting for my mum.
Past 10 minutes, I saw that the elevator was on my floor. So I made a funny face, a really funny face! When the door opened, oh… I wish the ground would open up and swallow me! It wasn’t my mother! It was my neighbour... and, I have to say, he is really boring! When he saw me, he said that I had to take part in a circus and make sure to be the clown! Oh, I went bright red!
Seconds later, my mother came by the stairs. She didn’t know what had happened but I wanted to die!
