The youngsters, finally pacified,
stared back and forth at the adult and the board. Each of the youngster’s face
began to shift responsively. Some with amazement, some with a sarcastic look,
and others with the ‘I don’t care look.’ The teacher smirked, cleared her
throat, and enunciated the extremely difficult equation which filled the whole
board. Sighs, eyes rolling, and taps on various objects are made by the dozen
of pupils that sat on the black plastic table-chair being immured by white
cement walls. They are helplessly waiting for their time to be liberated from
this room.

Then a sweet loving sound at the
teacher’s rear echoed “You look tired honey,” “let’s go.” She perked her head up;
eyes sparkled like never before and rubbed her eyes. She saw vague image of a
man with a formal neck-tie and a smart looking suit with a tag that read “Principal”
on it. She was astonished. The man offered her a hand and she gladly accepts it. Her energy is being rejuvenated. Then, for the first time in her life,
she proceeded to walk out of the class happily and unexhausted ready to begin the exciting
adventures of her weekend.
