21、Kristina’s family was going to visit her grandparents. Kristina was so excited! It had been months since their last visit. They called a taxi to take them to the airport. “This will save us lots of time,” Dad said. “We won’t have to worry about parking.”

However, the streets were crowded with cars, and the taxi slowly made its way to the airport through the traffic. They arrived at the airport very late, got stuck at a checkpoint for a while, and had to run all the way to the gate to catch their plane. Out of breath, they finally reached the gate. The clerk saw them dash up and shook her head sadly. “You checked in too late,” the clerk said, “so we had to give your seats to other people. Now the plane is completely full.” The clerk booked them on another flight, which would leave two hours later. The family was upset, but all they could do was to wait. Mum and Dad were worried now because they were going to be late, and Grandma and Grandpa would have to wait too.

After two long hours, the family finally got on a plane. When they got off the plane after the quick flight, Grandma and Grandpa greeted them with huge smiles. Mum, Dad and Kristina were very glad to see them at last, and they couldn’t wait to get to their house.

Grandpa took Kristina's hand, and they happily chatted and laughed as they went together to pick up the luggage. They waited and waited, but their luggage was nowhere to be seen! Dad asked an airport worker for help, and she looked on her computer for a minute or two. “I’m sorry, but it seems that your luggage didn’t get on your plane,” she said. “It won’t be here for another hour.”
