"Hey All! I've found a mouse in the class!" exclaimed Jingting," it seems to be half-dead."
"Well... We can try feeding it with some cheese," suggested Shitieng,"or maybe we should try to give it some water."
We are in our class, Perseverance 4, in Chong Boon Secondary School. Jingting found a live animal at the corner of our classroom. We were thinking of keeping it in a cage and try to save the poor animal. I was quite upset when i saw the mouse in such a poor state, because i like animal very much.
Since that day, when we tried to give it some food and drinking water, it did not move a single bit. We tried to keep it a secret from our parents that we had reared a small maybe disease carried mouse. I hope that the small mouse get better the following day.
The following day, when we reached class at 8am, we smelt a unpleasant odour from the place where we kept our small pet. Shitieng went to check the cage, and returned us with a flustered and fearful looked.
"Our pet is dead," she choked out.
Her words were like a thunderbolt out of a clear blue sky. Both me and Jingting stared at her dumbfounded. I was frightened of looking at the body therefore; I looked away and tried to pick up the small matter with newspaper.
