"The Math Test"
by
Em

 The bell rang loudly at the end of another extremely boring science lesson. Crowds of children flooded out of the clasroom. The hall was full with depressed children waiting for the results of their maths test they took last week. There was one person that was not depressed at all.

Sarah Langley was leaning against the wall which was decorated with posters advertising the school dance this Friday. Sarah took no notice of these posters as she was studying this Friday and was not doing anything that night. Her blonde pigtails were slung back over her shoulders as she heard the call to the assembly hall to announce the results of the test. Sarah knew she was going to win as she did every year. She sat down on her usual chair and listened.

"The highest marks on this test were......." There was a long silence.

" Mark Cramberry, Well done Mark. "

Sarah sat there in amazement. It was her first time she had been beaten.
