It was another boring day at school ‘Tom!’ shouted my history teacher ‘Tom!’
‘Tom? That’s me, I said But I said it in an American accent The class laughed They think m funny, but the teachers don’t They think I’m stupid
‘I suppose you think you’re very clever, Tom,’ said the history teacher ‘But you’re not clever’
‘No, sir, I said
Neesha smiled at me She’s my best friend She understands me She knows that I don’t like history But I really like science It’s
because of Mr Roberts, our science teacher He’s great
Our next lesson was science, but at 11 o’clock Miss Kay, the head teacher, came into our classroom
‘Good morning, class, she said ‘Can you all go to the library, please?”
‘But we've got science,’ I said ‘I know, Tom, said Miss Kay ‘But there isn’t any science today
‘Where’s Mr Roberts?’ asked Neesha
‘Mr Roberts is at home,’ said the head
‘Why?’ I asked ‘Is he ill?” ‘No, Tom, said the head ‘Mr Roberts isn’t ill He doesn’t work here any more."

Don’t ask questions!
Neesha and I knew where Mr Roberts lived, and so we went to see him after school He didn’t say much and he looked very unhappy
‘I didn’t take the paper, he told us ‘I told the head, but she didn’t believe me.’
‘We believe you,’ I told him
‘Thanks,’ he said, ‘but there’s nothing
you can do Go home.’
So I went home, but I did something
I wrote a question on a big piece of paper
The next day I put it on the notice board:
DID YOU SEE ANYONE GO INTO THE SCIENCE ROOM ON WEDNESDAY BEFORE 9 AM?
That evening someone sent me a text message It read: ‘Do you want to see your
cat again? Then don’t ask questions.’
I took it to Mum ‘It’s a joke, she said
‘It’s from one of your friends.’
‘But where is Maggie?’ I asked Maggie is our cat ‘Maggie’s out, she said ‘Cats often go out for hours.’
I went outside and shouted for Maggie Then
I put some food in her bowl But she didn’t come
home
I rang Neesha ‘I know the text message wasn’t from a friend, I said
‘How?’ she asked
‘Because we don’t use whole words when we
text And someone has got our cat.’
‘Who?’ she asked
‘I don’t know,’ I said ‘But I’m going to find out.’ Questions

2 What did Tom put on the notice board? Why?
3 How did Tom know that the text message wasn’t from a friend? 4 Why was Tom worried about Maggie?
