Ia berbelok di tikungan dan melihat bus itu melaju pergi. Katrin berhenti dan memandangi bus itu menghilang di ujung jalan.

"Not again," she says, out of breath. She checks her phone for the next bus time.

"Aduh, jangan lagi," katanya terengah-engah. Ia memeriksa ponselnya untuk melihat jam bus berikutnya.

The next bus comes in twenty-five minutes. That is too late for her first class. She has an important test today.
