After reading the story, please answer this question.
Why was the writer’s aunt surprised?
Breakfast or lunch?
It was Sunday. I never get up early on Sundays. I sometimes stay in bed until lunchtime. Last Sunday I got up very late. I looked out of the window. It was dark outside. What a day! I thought. It’s raining again. Just then, the telephone rang. It was my aunt Lucy. I’ve just arrived by train, she said. I‘m coming to see you.
But I’m still having breakfast, I said. What are you doing? she asked.
I’m having breakfast, I repeated.
Dear me, she said. Do you always get up so late? It‘s one oclock!
