An Interesting Exercise
by LisaMay
Jill had spent the morning at the Zoo and was about to catch the bus home. It was parked at the stop as she approached.
Goodness me… she thought. A gorilla has escaped!
Jill could see a primate’s silhouette inside the bus, swinging hand-over-hand along the bus’s commuter straps.
When he saw Jill hesitating he stopped, then quickly sat behind the steering wheel, put his driver’s hat on, and said cheerfully: “That’s today's exercise done.”
