Usually, every afternoon, Mrs. Berry would be waiting for the children at the cross street.

Nevertheless, on that particular day, when the children got off the school bus, Mrs. Berry was nowhere to be seen.

“Robinson, Jamison, and Elisa, is your guardian not here yet?” Lexie, the teacher from the kindergarten, asked. “Do you need me to make a call to your parent?”

“No need,” Robbie answered in a rather mature manner. “Mrs. Berry has been arriving a few minutes later than usual these days. It’s okay. We’ll just have to wait for a while here.”

“Then you have to be good and wait here, okay? Don’t wander about.” Lexie continued, “Robinson, you’re the big brother, so you have to take good care of your siblings, alright?”“Yes, I know. Don’t worry, Ms. Cheney.” Robinson patted his little chest and added confidently, “I’ll look after them properly.”

“Good boy.” Lexie didn’t think much and let the school bus leave.

For the past few days, Mrs. Berry had been late for a few minutes, and the school bus had waited on the spot until Mrs. Berry came to pick up the children.

However, because of that, other parents started complaining as they had to wait longer to pick up their children. Therefore, Lexie didn’t dare to delay anymore.

Thinking that Mrs. Berry would be there to pick them up soon and that it was very close to their home, Lexie didn’t have any misgivings.
