Lucky or Unlucky??
Time: One of the English lesson that in the June
Place: Classroom
Characters: Storyteller, Chairperson, Susan, Cherry, Cyrus, Narrator Student A, Recreation Officer A & B

Storyteller: The time passed very quickly. The beginning of June meant nearly the end of the academic year.

Narrator: [Scene opens with Cherry sits with Susan, Cyrus sits behind Cherry, and there is other 9 students sits in the classroom. The Class Chairperson, Class Recreation Officers A&B sand in front oh the blackboard.]

Storyteller: When Ms.Poon said she would use the English Lesson to hold the Oral Exam, the class officers asked her to let them had a statistic. Ms.Poon agreed and she said that we must be quiet. And she added that she would be in the opposite room of my classroom to hold the Oral Exam.

Narrator: [Then she goes to the opposite room and sits near the door of the room.]

Chairperson: Our class want to organize the first and also the last activity. We asked you before and then we make up our mind that to go to the Hong Kong Central Public Library and the Hong Kong Film Archive.

Recreation Officer A: Let's start the statistic now! First, you can nominate the teachers that who will go with us.

Narrator: [Student A is raising his hand.]

Recreation Officer B: (says to student A) Which teacher you want to nominate?

Student A: Our History teacher, Ms. Kwan.

Narrator: [Recreation Officer A writes down 'Ms. Kwan' on the blackboard.]

Narrator: [Then, Cyrus suddenly shouts in the classroom.]

Cyrus: We can go with our D&T teacher, Mr. Yeung.

Narrator: [Recreation Officer A writes down 'Mr. Yeung' on the blackboard.]

Storyteller: After a few moments, five teacher's names were written on the blackboard.

Chairperson: You can rise up your hand to show your decision. Remind you, we only can invite one teacher to go with us.

Recreation Officer B: Our History teacher, Ms Kwan?

Narrator: [Three students rise up their hands.]

Recreation Officer A: Two only? Oh, then who want to Mr. Yueng go with us?

Narrator: [Cyrus and other six students rise up their hands.]

Chairperson: There is over half of our classmates want to Mr. Yeung go with us.

Recreation Officer B: But he only teaches the boys' D&T. We know nothing about him.

Recreation Officer A: Yea, I agree. So, I think we can invite Ms. Kwan at the recesses today.

Cyrus: No! There are seven classmates want Mr. Yeung go with us. Why don't you invite him?

Recreation Officer B: It is not fair or the girls!

Cyrus: You can add your Home Economics teacher's on the blackboard if you like.

Recreation Officer A: But it is not fair to the boys!

Cyrus: (says to the boys) We don't mind it, do we?

Storyteller: As all boys wanted the chairperson to invite Mr. Yeung, no one disagreed Cyrus's thought.

Recreation Officer B: But we mind that. No one wants to invite our Home Economics teacher to come with us.

Recreation Officer A & B: (say together) We don't think we invite Mr. Yeung is a good idea!

Cyrus: You are all astute! It is not FAIR!

Storyteller: Then, Cyrus bent over to the desk and cried.

Cherry: Why you can cry easily? Just a class activity, don't be so obstinate!

Storyteller: Cyrus was just crying and said nothing.

Susan: (quietly) Cyrus, be brave!

Storyteller: As the classroom became noisier, he couldn't listen what I said.

Cherry: You ought to follow the result of the statistic. If you don't respect the class decision, this shows that you don't respect yourself too!

Storyteller: My heart had broken since he cried. But I could do nothing for him! I wanted to cry, but I had no reason to let me cried.

Narrator: [Student A asks to the whole class.]

Student A: Who want to go to the opposite to have the Oral Exam?

Storyteller: I wanted to control my tear not slide down, so I answered.

Susan: I want.

Narrator: [Then Susan leaves the classroom and goes to the opposite room.]

Storyteller: When I was sitting in the opposite room, I also heard that there were noises in the classroom.

Susan: I must pay attention to this Oral Exam. Those affairs can't disturb my mood.

Storyteller: I felt happy that the Oral Exam was not so difficult. But I felt worried about Cyrus.

Narrator: [Susan comes back to the classroom and then goes back to her seat.]

Storyteller: I found that he didn't cry but he also was dissatisfied about the result of the statistic.

Cherry: Let he clam himself down!

Susan: May be you are right, because I can do nothing for him.
