She’d been kicking a football around the yard. She was a pretty good kicker, well, she thought so. She’d been dribbling a bit, then she would kick the football as hard as she could by the tall wall.

But this time, she kicked the ball too high, and it sailed over the wall.
She would have to go next door. And that place was very grand.

She should just walk over there and look confident, and not get her knickers in a twist.

She rapped the door knocker loudly.
But nothing.
However, the football bounced back to her.
Lucky, eh?
