The Blue Umbrella

This afternoon, it rained a lot.
After school finished, I went to get my blue umbrella.
But my umbrella was not there, so I was worried.
The teacher said, “I think someone took it.”
At that time, my friend said “I’m sorry” and brought my umbrella.
His umbrella was also the same blue.
