nothing. It was a cold rainy day when I found out that we are out of milk which

my daughter extremely likes. Although I didn’t have a driving license, I decided to

take my husband’s car to buy milk and some grocery for us. I escorted my daughter

to the car and drove it across the large wooded streets in the quiet city I live.

While I was wandering around, I saw a police patrol car across from me. The strong

flashing lights of his car made me trembled and feel so horrifying feeling. “Where

is your license?”, he asked “I don’t have a license,” I replied, “how could you do

that, you’ll be arrested,” he said.

and smelling the fresh air , I learned that some things aren’t so bad.
