Speaking exercise

After checking her temperature, the woman almost died of a heart attack after seeing MB in the window. The window cleaner started climbing and then he saw something, something incredible, the holy bucket of water. Excited, he jumped off the ladder at once and tried to move the ladder to the bucket which contained water for cleaning. However MB clung onto the ladder, not wanting to let go, he didn’t want the window cleaner to get the holy water. So he clung onto it, hoping for the right moment to climb down. The man stopped abruptly, putting down the ladder, landing right next to the holy tennis ball. He didn’t see MB clinging to the ladder like it was his last hope of living. Finally the man craned his neck after carrying such a heavy load so MB had an opportunity to climb down the ladder.
