Children
rushed for the school. It was eight 'o clock in the morning. There was no sun
or promise of sun, and there was not a single cloud in the sky. It was a clear
day. Like another ordinary day, the school bell rang. Preeti ran and put her
hand on the shoulder of Prateek. He turned around and looked at her. She was
blooming like a flower.
"You
got Idli-vada for lunch today", and he extended his arm towards the
left of her shoulder. She looked at him disappointingly and said to him in a
subdued voice: "You forgot". Then, shaking off her torpor, she added:
"Today is our Intraclass drawing competition.
Prateek was
astounded. He banged his head and said to her: "I completely forgot".
He pleaded with her to share her stationary with him. She nodded with a pleasing
smile.
The competition started at twelve 'o clock sharp. Preeti had butterflies in her
stomach. The class teacher entered and wrote down this one word with the chalk
- "Earth". Preeti and Prateek looked at each other and smiled.
The bell
rang at one o'clock straight. Teachers collected the drawing sheet from each
child. Preeti handed down her sheet with an alluring smile. Both eagerly waited
for the result.
