- I just... - she began but didn't finish. Her mom shouldn't know about this.
- You just what? - she asked impatiently.
- I just quarrelled with a friend and I went jogging. And don't even know when I've collapsed. - She lied to hide the truth.
- Which friend?
- you don't know her. She's from other school.
Jenna wanted to check her phone but it wasn't in her pocket
- Where is my phone? - She asked.
- The phone with broken screen?
- Yeah...
- What have you done with it?
- It... It just dropped on the ground. - Jenna lied again. - But look: it was old anyway. You've told you'd buy me a new one more than a month ago.
Doctor said that Jenna was supposed to stay in hospital until next day, just in case. The next day, on Saturday her mother came into her hospital room and gave her a package. It was a new phone.
- Oh gosh, thanks! - Jenna said when she's unpacked it.
- It's early birthday gift. - Jenna's mom smiled.
- It's just like I wanted. Thank you.
- You're welcome. But you know, if you destroy it, I won't buy you another one for at least two years. Now I'll leave you alone, because I have some work to do. I'll take you home at four or five. Okay?
- Yes, it's okay. Anyway I have nothing to do at home today. Bye.
- Bye.
When her mom left Jenna started learning her new phone. She had time.
