One day I got up with the feeling that the day was going to be unlucky day for me. I found that it was already 6.50.

I rush into the bathroom. In a hurry I did not see a piece of soap lying on the floor. I stepped on it and slipped.

Then I went into dining room for my breakfast. I gulped down the tea without realizing that it was very hot, so it burnt my tongue. I got dressed and rushed to the bus stop. Unfortunately, I just missed the bus.

My heart sank and knew that I would be late for school and my teacher would be angry at me again.

It was early in the morning when five staff of the charity International Animal Rescue (IAR) arrived at the forest. The forest was hazy with smoke. They breathed through cloth masks as they searched for a dehydrated and possibly dying orangutan and her infant seen the previous night. A farmer reported seeing the mother and daughter orangutans near a palm oil farm which was on fire.

After several hours searching through the haze, they finally found the pair.
