I was in tenth standard then. It was a day before our dashera vacation would begin. All the students in hostel had left for their homes and many day scholars were absent too.. I never missed school. When i reached school i was too surprised to see just two other friends in our class. Just three students was too boring.. We were asked to sit with Class IX and were given some maths problems to be solved.
We solved the problems (Same problems were given to both classes as SLC syllabus covered both IX and X standard).. and it was boring again.. somehow we managed to pass our the first four classes doing literally nothing... Then we three decided to bunk after the lunch break...I used to go home for my lunch.. It would have been easy for me not to come back but i had my bag with me.. There were two exit routes which i could opt.. It was very important that I make it as quickly as possible otherwise anyteacher could see me... The bell rang and i went off... As fast as i could and heart was beating real fast...I slept off after having lunch...
After I got up, i sat at the shop. The school got over soon and a friend of mine , Chyandru (IX) was returning.. I asked him whether any teacher enquired... He told me that VP, Ajit sir, had taken down the name of students who did not turn up after the class and they would be punished when the school reopens.
Both dashera and diwali were rocking.. Now the school was set to reopen.. It was the first day.. I was very scared... I was never called in the assembly or to the principal's office for doing anything wrong... I was really scared... The bell rang and we assembled... Ajit sir went to the dias with a piece of paper in his hand... I was terrified... That chit must contain our names is what i thought... National anthem and prayer.... I was too scared...
But...........It had some other announcement.... I thanked god and was relaxed.....
Moral : 99% of our worries remain as worries!!!!!
