Puddle of water case

The case of the puddle of water

What happened?

I did not know the exact detail of the incident so I will just describe what I feel and see.

During recess, I stayed back for a while to complete my homework. After that I went to the canteen to have my break. When I was going out through the door of the class room, I noticed a puddle of water and a water bottle nearby. Apparently the water had spilled out of the water bottle. Thinking that the person who had spilled the water might have gone to get a cloth to clean up the mess, I simply brushed this incident off my mind. After recess, I came back to class late for a little bit and Miss Soh was already in the class. I was shocked to see the puddle of water still there but I went back to my seat as quickly as possible, carefully not to step on the puddle of water. Miss Soh was standing in front of the class on silence when she finally spoke,"Why is there a puddle of water on the floor with clothes over it. Why isn't there any one cleaning up the mess? Will the clothes be able to soak up all the water if you leave them there?" At this moment, the students sitting near the puddle of water immediately started to clean up the mess. As I was sitting at the back and I cannot see whether the students have cleaned up the mess therefore I didn't go forward and offer my assistance. However, I feel that this is not an excuse. I should go forward and see if they need any help rather than just standing at the back watching a 'free show'. There is reasons why Miss Soh asked us to clean up the mess. Firstly, if people did not see the puddle of water and accidentally slipped and fell, it will be disastrous. Secondly, if people accidentally stepped on the puddle of water but did not slip and continue walking, he will leave black foot prints on the floor, causing the floor to be very dirty. In the future, when I see such incident happen again I will render my help willingly and not let what happened on that day happen again.
