The School Day Season 1

On a warm sunny morning I woke up, got Ready for school and walked down the dusty road, got to the school bus station and waited... Chatting with the old grandpa who escorted his grand daughter daily, was my mother. They laughed, discussed the old bus drivers grumpy attitude and ridiculous amount of time, that the bus took to reach our society 

Suddenly all of our ears were alerted by the so familiar noise of the bus, we took a peek and our doubts were no longer.... 

I got on the bus and the so familiar bus smell was there...The old clothes covering the comfy bus seats, just like the ideal bus....

Through out the bus route kids got on, They laughed, played truth and dare, did pranks and to be frank they also sang some lewd songs and cussed a lot.... 

While I kept looking out the bus window looking at the beautiful scenery outside, which I loved the most... 

The bus pulled up in front of the school gate,

The old guards opened up the gate....

The bus came in and parked itself,

The bus door swung open and the cold air came inside.... 

The children along with me stepped out of the bus, I used to be and still am, a boring person, introvert unlike the rest of my classmates, Dosent like sports, likes playing chess, learning history, science, literature, and maths....Yep I am a complete nerd and boring person.... 

Most of the girls even didn't talk to me and who that did only did to ask for assistance in homework or to get some work done.....

But... there was one notable exception... Jiya, a girl in a lower grade than me....we became friends on our school bus, when there were no other seats to sit, me and she were forced to sit on the same seat. During those 20 minutes of me and her being seated there we came to know each other well...

During the lunch break / recess we played and chatted together.....

I went inside my classroom, sat next to my bench mate, Tanishq who I knew from a Nanital trip.....

The first class started, it was science, my fav subject at the time. I was and still am, one of the teacher's fav, I still remember my first encounter with her, I was talking to Tanishq, in the eyes of the teacher I wasn't paying attention but unknown to her when I seem half asleep, I am wide awake and when it seems I ain't paying attention and talking to someone else, half of my brain and one of my ear is still paying attention.

After the end of the topic she was teaching, she called all the students who weren't paying attention and were misbehaving, told them to stand in front of the whole class and mocked them for misbehaving and not knowing what she taught... but wait.... I know what she taught I can answer the question.... maybe this will save me from the punishment, and rebuilt my lost reputation.... I decided to give it a try... 

As my mother used to say " It's not important to win, but it's important to try and participate. "

I gathered all my courage and said " Kuljeet ma'am I know the answer to your question"

She told me " if u do know it, then come and answer it... "

I stepped forward and spoke the answer quickly yet, with all the details..

The teacher was shaken.. 

she said in a guilty voice " I didn't expect to get such a good answer from you, very well you may sit down at your seat" she also patted my shoulder as a sign of respect and admiration.... 

I sat down, the class got over, the bell rung and it was time to give and exam, guess which subject, IT'S SCIENCE.

as I walked down the school hallway to reach the examination room, I encountered her, miss Kuljeet, both of us exchanged glances and she nodded I was very confident that I am gonna top this exam,

later I didn't get disappointed....

After the exam, it was lunch break, and I met.... Jiya we chatted, played and then went to, an isolated corner of the playground there, we held hands, and I did it, I said to Jiya " I love you " we both hugged and shared a tender kiss. then the bell rang, both of us parted ways for the time being, went back to our classes, it was English class, one of my fav class and subject, but wait...

this is... Harmeet Ma'am, the most grumpy 

devil like teacher, her anger through the roof and filled with feury and dark eye liner.... 

She came in the classroom, the sound of her heels, almost made us pee.. 

She asked "ₐᵣₑ ₐₗₗ ₒf ₘy ₛₜᵤdₑₙₜₛ bₑₕₐᵥᵢₙg?"

in a satanic voice..

She proceeded towards the monitor, kavneet at the time, Ma'am asked her "ₜₑₗₗ ₘₑ ₜₕₑ ₙₐₘₑₛ ₒf ₜₕₑ ₘᵢₛbₑₕₐᵥᵢₙg cₕᵢₗdᵣₑₙ"

kavneet said "Harihar, Harshita, Naman and Krish were the most rebellious students in your absence "

She looked at all of them with a cruel eye and yelled at them " Gₑₜ ᵤₚ!!"

They all got up, shaking so much that they might fall apart....

Ma'am said " ᴰᵒ ʸᵒᵘ ᵈᵒⁿ'ᵗ ᶠᵉᵃʳ ᵗʰᵉ ᶜᵒⁿˢᵉqᵘᵉⁿᶜᵉˢ ? "

All of them sweated a bucket, after a few minutes of yelling and screaming, the temper of our teacher calmed down.... 

She then opened up the smart board, opened the folder, with questions and answer's....

And then 1 2 3 GO!! 

ALL OF US STARTED WRITING DOWN THE QUESTION AND ANSWERS, AS IF OUR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT!!!

BECAUSE WE ONLY GOT 30 MINUTES TO WRITE THE ANSWERS OF ALL 20 LONG QUESTIONS 

IT WAS A RACE A HORSE RACE, ONE WE SHOULD MUST WIN!!!

We all wrote like litteraly like machines....

At the end of the class, our hands were sore and our copies full....

Then the satanic teacher send one of her demons to collect our copies, now we had to give up our hard written work, she was some kind of evil landlord who collects revenue forcefully from the poor peasants... 

When she departured, she did only after delivering a heavy blow... 

We were given the impossible homework, 

learn 3 chapter's, write essays on 5 important people, each should at least be 200 words....

My mind was in so much agony, that I literally wanted to scream and run out of the class....

After she left..., it was chess class, I decided to play chess and clear my mind a bit.... 

My Opponent this time was Tani, a person with a ego, jealousy, intellect, cunning, and yet my friend, or a antagonist behind the trustworthy relationship of a friend.... 

But.. as I sat down on the chair opposite to Tani suddenly-

I was on desert land, wearing a robe, a crown on my head, I looked around myself, a queen was right beside me, many infantry units, rooks, knights and camel units, it took me some moments to realize I was a king leading a army, I looked forward there was the enemy army, I was supposed to lead my army to victory, I thought " it's an easy victory " or is it...? 

It was clear, I had to lead the army. I was black, so Tani made the first move moving the infantry in front of the king one block.

I did the same, As the game proceeded Our cavalry clashed, only in a few moves all of the cavalry of both of us were dead from the fierce fighting. The camel units were unleashed, Tried to maneuver around the enemy lines using the camels, ending in failure.

I tried to play a risky gamble, sending both rooks which might die, to distract the enemy, while the queen and the remaining of the infantry flanks the enemy and goes to checkmate the king. The rooks were intercepted by the Enemy infantry and the queen was send to reinforce the front.

Everything was going according to the plan, then I rushed my the queen and infantry forces towards the enemy lines blitzing, my forces quickly cut through the enemy lines, which soon melted. 

I rushed towards the king who was unprotected, the enemy tried to stall my advance by diverting some infantry units and the queen, but my valiant rooks blocked their movement, in the clashing one of the rook fell dead, but only after killing the queen, The Opposite king was becoming helpless.
