CHAPTER

8

Bossy Betty Tommy Greenwood walked quickly from his school to the bus stop. A thick fog had fallen over the city of Liverpool. It was cold and damp.

There was a long queue at the bus stop. Tommy wondered how they would all get on the bus. He wished he had a moped.

At last he saw the headlights of the bus coming along the street.

It stopped and the people started to get on.

“Hurry along there!” the loud voice of the conductress almost made Tommy jump. It was Bossy Betty. Everyone knew her.

“Hurry along there!” shouted Betty. “It’s full upstairs.” Tommy quickly got on downstairs and stood behind four other people in the aisle. All the seats were taken. After him came a big woman with a heavy shopping bag in one hand, and a large brown parcel in the other.

“Five standing only downstairs. There are six of you. Will the last one to get on, get off?” This was Betty’s bus. She was the boss. Tommy knew that he wasn’t the last person to get on. It was the big woman with the brown parcel and the shopping bag.

Tommy felt sorry for her. “Oh, ring the bell,” he said. “There’s only one extra.”

“Five standing only,” said Betty. She looked at the big woman.

“You were the last to get on. Do you mind getting off?”

The big woman’s face got very red. She was tired, and she was hungry. “Drop dead!”

For a moment Betty looked surprised. Then she stuck out her chin. “This bus won’t go until you get off.” The big woman stood like the Rock of Gibraltar. “Listen you,” she said. “I’m dead on my feet and I’m not going to move. Now, press that bell and let’s get home.” Betty stuck her chin out even more. “I’m not pressing the bell until one of you gets off.”

Suddenly the driver opened his window and looked in.

“What’s happening? We’re late enough already.” Betty pushed

past the big woman and Tommy, and went to the front of the bus. “There are too many standing and they won’t get off!”

A little man in a dark suit and a bowler hat got on the bus. Everyone started talking at once. “Come on!” shouted the driver. “Let’s get going!”

“Right,” screamed Betty, “the last person to get on can get off right now or I’ll call the police!”

“Dear me,” said the little man in the bowler hat. “There’s no need to speak like that. No need at all.”

And he hopped off the bus and disappeared into the fog.

“Thank goodness for that,” said the driver, and drove off. Betty stood there with her mouth open. Tommy and the big woman couldn’t stop laughing.
