Hobo's advent calendar 2008
December 6
Helle straightened my tie when we reached the entrance of the school. Then she kissed me and walked off through the school playground. Helle was a popular teacher and a lot of pupils said "Hi" as she went. A couple of boys even fought to hold the door open for her but they ended up falling over each other in their struggle. I watched as Helle opened the door herself and finally disappeared from view.
