One day, we had a guest teacher. His name was Dan. He was helping us learn about job interviews.

The teacher fainted!

Suddenly, Dan stopped talking. He did not look well.

Dan said, "I don't feel well."

Note from the Editor:

I met with Kabir and Ali at their school. They showed me what happened. I took photos. The male teacher in the photos is not the teacher who fainted.
