     When I finally got back to the office， I had a headache. There on my desk was a bright orange sticky nole, “Urgent message! Please take  action 16    , ” it said.

   “Thai Sara! I wonder what it is this time. Probably a message from the dry-cleaner's. ” I threw it into  my 17 and finished up some work that was urgent.

     “Sara  did，but she doesn't   19   who she  gave the message to . And what's  worse，the child didn't show up for school today! ”

    I   20  . Could they be talking about my “urgent message ”? I  did in my wastebasket until I found the orange note: “School Nurse at Lee Middle.

Reporting possible child se call before school closes. ”

    Through the half-open door,I could hear Jean talking to Sare. “The child is fine this time,but that does not  21  your mistake. ”I shut my eyes tightly to think.

   “Sara  doesn't remember putting this message in my box.I could  22
