Minutes passed.
No one came along to give me the grand prize,and then someone distracted me,and I probably never would have thought about that poster again.
I was still sitting at my desk,thinking,What poster?when the teacher gave me an envelope with a ten-dollar bill in it and everyone in the class applauded for me.
