Peter joined the school fun run; his desire is to win so he didn't mind if he was stepping on water wherein his
foot was soaked. Even if this feels uncomfortable because his feet were very itchy, he only removed his socks
that evening that’s why it was very smelly. He hanged it at the back of the refrigerator to dry and immediately
went to sleep because he was so tired. Early that morning, his brother John saw that sock hanged at the back of
the refrigerator and used it thinking that it was clean.
