My family and I went to my mother's hometown to celebrate"ldul
fitri". We went by aeroplane. At
the airport, my family and I had to walk
through the metal detector. When I got the
turn to walk through it, suddenly the
alarm beeped. The woman who worked as
the airport security said, "Come here,
you need to get your belt off"
l took my belt off, but the alarm
still beeped. The security asked me to take my wallet from my pocket. I did what she ordered. Still,
the alarm beeped.
After that the security asked me to turn back and she
checked my body. She touched my left
pocket. Then she told me, "There
was something in it. It might be the
thing that made the alarm beeped"I took out something from the left
pocket. The woman laughed and said,
"That has made the alarm beep".
It was a silver pen. I felt
embarrassed because everybody stared at me with curiosity.
