Ali: May I come in, sir?

Teacher: Yes, stand here. Why do you always come late?

Ali: Sir, it is the bus which makes me late.

Teacher: What time do you leave home and how far is your home from here?

Ali: I always leave home at a quarter to eight and my home is about three kilometers from here. And then I have to take a bus from the stop to reach school.

Teacher: That is why you get late. You leave your home very late.

Ali: Sir, I take my breakfast at 7:30 a.m.

Teacher: What time do you get up?

Ali: I get up at about 7:00 a.m.

Teacher: Don't you offer your prayer?

Ali: Not regularly.

Teacher: My dear. It is a bad habit. Change your routine. Always get up early in the morning. Offer your prayers and go for a morning walk. Then you will never get late for school.

Ali: You are right, sir. From tomorrow, I shall never be late.

Teacher: Good. I hope you will be on time tomorrow. Come and take your seat.

Ali: Thank you very much for your good advice.

Teacher: Oh Yes, of course.
