Day of slaps

That day I could never forget in my life. I was studying 10th and that hour belongs to social studies. Lets see the recap of what happened in the preceding weeks. All our term exams ended and we were eagerly waiting for our marks since we are going to get from a new teacher. The exhilaration prevailed due to the fact that we don’t know how she is going to evaluate the paper. Most of my friends got below 60 including the girls and only one boy got above 75. The tension started to creep on me much higher than before because I didn’t receive my paper and I could see the last paper on the table. It was definitely the paper wrote by me and I moved towards the table at a snail’s pace. That was a gift indeed and I could hear a voice screaming, “hey you got the first mark”. Few classes passed and one day I was listening to the class with my hands on the cheeks. My teacher doesn’t like anyone doing that. Still I kept the same posture since I got the first mark and I had a thought that she would not scold me. I got slapped consecutively for doing that. That showed her nature of being impartial to anyone and this is the true nature of the teacher, which should prevail in every one and this was the character that attracted me. From that time my cheeks never rested on my hands.
