A story

Our lucky day

(by Jéssica, Belén and Magalí)

 

 

Last weekend, we went to the cinema. When we were buying the ticket, the cashier said: 'They are a special offer, you pay two and get three'. We saw a premiere.

 

Then, we went out of the cinema and found a voucher for a free meal. We were very happy at the end of the day!
