Sahir! Sahir! Wake up now. It's already 7.
You promised to help me get water from the well this morning.
I had to do it myself.
Oh no! I overslept! I'm sorry, Fatima didi.
I was awake till late last night.
Why? What were you doing?
Kanasu asked me to help her with making some drawings for her science project.
It took much longer than I thought.
Can I help you fetch the water tomorrow?
You better! Now, go and get ready for school.
You're already late!
Oh no! I am very late!
Sahir! Why didn't you come to school, yesterday?
I couldn't come, Kanasu.
But you were supposed to give me the drawings yesterday.
I'm sorry. I've got them right here.
I wish you had told me you couldn't do it.
I still have to work on this.
Now I can only submit this tomorrow to Fela Sir.
I'll be late by a day and it is your fault!
I said I'm sorry, Kanasu. I should have told you.
I didn't know I would miss school...
That doesn't solve the problem!
I'm not sure if Fela Sir will accept my submission.
All my effort will go down the drain.
I tried to come yesterday, Kanasu!
But you didn't, and that's what matters!
Kanasu? What?
I'm really sorry, Kanasu.
I'll come with you to Fela Sir. We'll convince him.
Alright, Sahir.
But tell me, why didn't you come to school yesterday?
My mother wasn't feeling well.
So my father made me go with him to the fields.
Oh! I wanted to come.
I knew you would be angry.
You know, I haven't submitted my project either.
Sahir! I feel awful.
Please don't apologise!
This wasn't your fault.
I'm sorry for yelling at you.
That's okay. No harm done.
How is your mother today?
She's much better Okay. That's good.
Thank you for helping me out. It was thoughtless of me to blame you.
Don't worry about it. Let's go to Fela Sir?
May we come in Sir? Yes, ready to submit your projects?
Erm... Sir... that's what we wanted to talk about.
What is it? Sir, we need a day more.
A day more? But, today is the deadline.
I wish to apologise, Sir.
It's all my fault.
My mother was unwell and I had to go help my father in the fields
so I didn't get the time to finish my project.
I made a mistake in my planning and now I need a day more, Sir.
I assure you I will submit it tomorrow.
Hmm. Okay. I can understand. These things happen.
Take a day more. And tell the rest of the class they can, too.
Thank you, Sir!
That's kind of you!
