going to school on a holiday

Going to school in a holiday is an adventure , isn't it?

The corridors which filled with children's laughter were  totally empty. It was exciting for a moment as there no one and no rules and i could do whatever my heart said. 
After a few minutes it hit me! "How would I go home??" 
I went  downstairs and found someone and asked for their phone. In the 7 minutes of the call i could do nothing but stand their embarrassed about being scolded

After the seven minutes my father started sympathising me as there was absolutely no one neither  in the school nor in the convent as all the teachers were on a holiday and all the sisters had went out.  My father said that he couldn't come in less than 30 minutes and i realised what  was i going to do for  the next 30 minutes.

For the next 5 minutes i started doing my homework and being totally an obedient student but then I  wasn't going to get a day like this. And i decided to discover my school more as we don't hve time to roam around it because of the busy schedule.

As i roamed outside  the convent garden i heard something bark.I followed the sounds and found them! No one has  any idea about our school having 3 dogs!!! One was labrador and rest of two were fully grown, beautiful and shiny German shepherd. At that moment I fell in love with Lucy one of the German shepherd who was calm and composed, expressive eyes which told me to  watch my steps, and had features of a sheer lady. 

I then found that we had 4 aquariums in the whole convent and in the school. The fishes were all shiny and beautiful. As i was playing with them by putting my one thumb on the glass frame,There! Someone again started shouting." Put your hand away kid" " what are u thinking ?"
And there came sister malvis. One of the oldest sisters in the convent and who had been my mother's principal. Once she came closer to me and my face was visible she immediately softened and kindly told me to put my hand away. She asked me about what was I doing on a. Holiday in the school.. and i recited the entire tale. She laughed it off and only said " Ahh silly girl" " have u eaten anything?" 
"No sister" 
"I forgot my lunch as i was in a hurry" 
She invited me to the convent and i was hesitant at first 
But went along.She served me a plate and just 4 minutes into the delicious aloo and Paratha. The watchman bhaiya came running to call me that my father had arrived.

I regretted calling him so soon. I could hve spent so much time with sister who was so alone and could have discovered my school more but as said " there's always a next time" 
That day i came home thinking to visit sister Malvis often and come see the flora and the fauna and especially Lucy more often.

my dream school

On a hot sunny MAY morning, Alex sat lazily on the bed thinking to do something interesting as he couldn't hang out with his frnds Because of the lockdown, his mother called for him-" ALEX, ALEX COME HERE! I GOT SOMETHING U COULD HELP ME WITH..." Alex sighed nd grunted nd made faces with disgust as it was the 8th time his mom had called for him , but his mother had raised a gentleman, he had to go to his motherAs soon as he went to her , he was asked to keep few boxes in the attic nd being the gentleman he is.. he did so After keeping the heavy boxes, he sat down on the dusty floor of the attic to catch his breath, as he cooled down, his eyes landed upon a box, really a coated in dust, around 25-30 years old.He wanted to ignore it but his curiousity took over him, he hurried over to it nd grabbed it.. wanting to open it but... Unable to. There was a fragile lock.. which immediately opened with a slight Tap of a hammerAs he opened the box , a note laid there.. with the words-"TO WHOEVER WHO HVE FOUND IT, KEEP IT SAFE, IT'S PRECIOUS..As he read those... His eyes counted the number of letters nd there were a total of 360 letters...As he read the 1st letter, his brain was jumbled ! The person seemed to be anonymous, but the person writting this letter kept referring the other person as 'MI AMOR' 'CARINÕ' 'TE AMO'He couldn't understand, what were these words? He was so perplexed. He couldn't think of anyone to ask but his mother. He went to his mother and asked her she said-" Oh these letters!? , It seems like these belonged to ur grandmother. As being a modern teenager, we went up to none other than goggle and started translating the words and decoding them. As he read themHe could think so one possibility, but he needed confirmation he went up to the internet and searched where Granda was, after a few bufferings oh! There it was, it was in Spain?? And soon he realised that these letters were written by his grandfather to his grandmother. OH! Such a gentleman he was! His grandfather.... Alex had always thought of such lowly of him, because he was told that his grandfather had ran away with all their money and property papers but in reality it was a lie, he was being lied to by his mother nd father, the truth was his grandmother had given the money because he needed money because he was building a house, for them... The next thing was him storming up to his mother confronting her and looking the amount of hate her son had for them she knelt and apologized but he couldn't forgive her.
