A Day Back To School....

On the bench in 21 park i found a wallet..Surely belonged to a student as it had a 100 rupees note that suffered severe folds and lack of outside atmosphere..Following some registeration slips i identify the owner a studnt of a school adjoining the park. ..i decided to deposit it to the school..

The gateman guided me to the principal's room..

oh wow!! after so many years i was entering a school..years since i saw uniforms all around..On the way to the principal's office i was reminded mre of my own school..In the first corridor,few DRESS DEFAULTERS were made to stand outside their classes ..Standing outside the class was always fun and never punishment fr me..and  the same was fr the students here.nothing had changed..Schools even today have their own boring  routine..teachers thrashing students,cleaning of   floors after evry 5 mins,.,etc.

i entered the office and found a furious face threatning someone on phone of not allowing his ward to appear in exams..same old principal's punch//"aap kal hi aake mjhse miliye apne bache k sath else i wont allow him to sit in exams.".nothing had changed..our's was no less..
i gave her the wallet and she made a call to SHUBAM CLASS 11 COMMERCE..

minutes later two slim medium height boys reported..both were shubams..before anythng else could proceed she points  one of them

"ye sar pe kya h? chidiya ka ghonsla h?hmm..you think you are a hero or what? just get lost you morons..comb your hair and then enter my office..''

they renter 5 min later with a champoo side hairline.lol..

PRINCI--dono apna wallet nikalo..

{and yes throughout the process i was in pride of doing such a responsible deed}

one of 'em--ma'am m to lekar nahi ata

PRINCI--and you  ghosla hair boy? 

STUDENT--maam neither do i..

PRINCI--then to whom this one belongs?

BOTH IN CHORUS(VOICE SHIVERING)--ma'm there is another shubham..he hasnt come today

PRINCI--hmm!did he come yesterday?

STUDENT1--no ma'am..

STUDENT2 yes ma'am

pata nahi..

the matter was.

the required shubam was in deadly danger..and all because of me

the guy was on a bunk and was doing somethng in the park the day before.

PRINCI--let the bastard come tomorrow..

(now to me)thank you for your help beta..so nice of you anybody else would have preferred  purchasing two more cigg packets from this money..

now this was the time for me to be heroic..

ma'am i have somethng to say

many times i have seen students of your school smoking ,consuming drugs in the adjoining park..

arnt u doing smething?

PRINCI--beta see..what can i do?

i have written to the police so many times but they dont support..

my respponsibility begins when the students enter the gate..outside what they do i can't hold of it..

parents are becoming careless..its their duty.."

 really nothing has changed..

that shubam might be cursing me by now..:P
