He was just in time for breakfast. “Do I really need to use a spoon?” said Ron. “Stop with these jokes!” shouted mom! “You cannot just put your face straight into the bowl! Now resume getting ready or we are going to be late!” Ron made his way out the door and to his bus stop. He realized none of his friends were there yet. “That’s odd,” he thought.
