Joe's alarm went off. He dragged himself out of bed. He looked in the mirror and sighed. He opened the curtain to see snow. It was beautiful. He smiled. He felt cold just looking at it.
"Looks like I'm walking today" he mumbled sleepily. He got ready and set off. As soon as he left the house he felt the icy wind sharply hit his face. He began to ruin the snow which was settled on the floor on the front with his footsteps.
6:30 am
He walked into the police office.
It was a usual morning.
"hello" Alf greeted.
"hi" Joe smiled.
"have you
seen Don on your travels?" Alf asked
"erm..no"
"oh" Alf chuckled.
12:30
Joe and Alf were having a general chat.
"Mason!" Sargent Miller shouted
"yes sarg" Joe stood up.
"where's pc Wetherby
"i don't know sarg" Joe answered.
"he is extremely late" Sargent Miller was angry.
"well his ex wife came down this morning"
"didn't she say anything?"
"no, they had a divorce"
The door flew open and slammed.
"I'm
sorry sarg, I was snowed in" Don said. He was out of breath.
"don't let it happen again!" He stormed back into his office.
Joe laughed.
"oh my god, I was snowed in" Don told.
"well Sargent Miller is in a really bad mood" Geoff said.
"Ha, Don, your ex dropped by this morning" Ventress smiled
"oh yeah" He said as he noticed Geoff giggle at the corner of his eye
"she brought your snap" Ventress joked and held up the plastic lunch box. This made Geoff and Joe laugh
"It's Billy's" He snached it off him "he left it at home, I need to go and give it to him at dinner"
"um Don" Joe cleared this throat.
"what now?" He asked. Joe looked up to the clock "I think you'll find it is half 12 and school dinner starts at 12:00"
Don looked at the clock "Oh I'm late I have to go" He rushed out the door. This made them all laugh.
