Part 13

The next day like the previous day was a holiday and Ravi again went to the library early in the morning and started reading the final book which was lying on the table its title was-" Everything You Need To Know-Adult Edition ." This book was a lot different from the other two books not only in its size but also its contents. It had information on topics ranging from dining etiquette to the recession. Ravi had read about only half of the book by evening and he was not interested in reading further. It was strange for him - to feel bored when he had a task in his hands. But he decided he had learnt enough of humans and the way they think and emote. As Ravi was lost in all the memories of the things he learnt the last 2 days the funky teen librarian came upto him and said,"Dude a Lil piece of advice- the book looks interesting but its boring man, so close it and I will give you some better books to read." Ravi just stared at him for a while and said,"Look Mis...

Part 12

The next morning Ravi woke up very early and went to the "Library" He went to the library early but it was already open and soon he was sitting on his table again and the next book was " Everything You Need to Know-Teen Edition ." He started reading the book he found the book interesting because in the book he found information about many things he never heard about, the book had information about everything from Pythagoras' Theorem to the scientific name of Blue Whale. Ravi spent hours reading and trying to remember anything and everything he could. Then after reading the book almost till the end he reached a chapter in the book which was called-" Love " and as any other chapter he continued reading the book but this was not a normal chapter, it was very different from the other chapters because it had no formulas, no scientific terms, no nothing but just assumptions and guesses. Ravi did not understand half of what he was reading and he wondered h...

Part 11

That night near the place Ravi was living, we find the " Shady Man " waiting for Ravi and when Ravi came. The shady man asked,"Hey Scar, how was the first day of your school." To this Ravi just says,"Humans talk a lot." "Thats the problem with you Scar, you don't know how to live among humans and for this assignment you need to learn a lot, this one is not like your regular Assassination Missions . Anyway we have our people working in the school and they will see that you don't fail in any subject and get the minimum required marks and I have arranged a membership in the library for you, I also chose some books for you to read, as you have 3 days holidays." said the shady man. Ravi was briefed about his "new" assignment once again and after sometime they both went their separate directions. The next day Ravi woke up early in the morning and left for the library. He went upto the librarian and said,"My name is Ravi and I...

Part 10

After the English period it was the second language hour and those who opted for Hindi went to the other room where their teacher was waiting and those who opted for Telugu stayed back in the class. The teacher who taught Telugu was Mr.Shastri a man in his sixties who was a very experienced teacher and had been teaching the G-section since 3 years, So he knew all of them very well. As soon as Mr.Shastri entered the class everyone stood up and greeted him with a "GOOD MORNING." and he too said Good Morning and asked them to sit down. He scanned the entire class in a jiffy with his eagle like vision and spotted the new boy sitting in the last bench. He knew who the boy was as the Head Mistress had told him about Ravi and everything else but still he wanted to hear the boy speak. So he politely asked the boy to stand up, Ravi was not interested in standing up but respecting his teacher's age, he stood up. Mr.Shastri wanted to hear how he would speak in Telugu and as he expe...

Part 9

Just as she was about to give them some more advice they all heard the sound of someone coming on the steps and they all froze as they thought it was their In-Charge Madam but when the door opened a skinny boy with messy hair came in. He came in and said,"I am the new foreign exchange student and my name is Ravi Teja.". Pooja was surprised on seeing her " Beggar Prince " in her school and that too in her very own section. Ms.Savita was a little taken aback by the sudden introduction and asked him to come inside and asked him why he was so late. He went to the last bench of the class where no one sat and gave a lazy reply of him talking with the Head Mistress and thats why he was late. The teacher did not want to create any scene in the very first day itself about discipline and just said him to be on time from the next day and told him his roll no. which was "18". She had only ten minutes of her class left and then just told everybody to get their Engli...

Part 8

After sometime their new teacher entered the class she looked younger than most of their older class teachers, she was pretty too and as soon as she entered the class she heard the giggling of some boys who were sitting at the back benches but she ignored them and introduced herself as-Ms.Savita their new class teacher and English Language teacher. She then continued," Students you know how every year our school sends some students on foreign trips in the Student Exchange Program and enrolls some foreign students so I am proud to announce that this year the foreign exchange student is from our section and that the new student is going to be in our section for this year." Most of the students were surprised they all had been classmates since kindergarten and they never got a new student till now, so they did not know how they would accept someone whom they did not know at all into their friends circle. So the teacher continued some more about dos and don't s in her class ...

Part 7

On her way back home Pooja always had the habit of talking to her father about the day's incidents at Verma Coaching Center and she told about how Mr.Ramesh started the new chapter in a new way and about the weird boy in the class.Then in their talk their house came and she quickly got ready and was really excited to go to the first day of Tenth grade. She secured the second position in her class last year and this time she was hell bent on reaching the "Numero Uno position" As she entered her school-"St. Joseph's Public School." she saw a scene which she saw almost every year- little children hung their faces sadly and went to school which was Lower Kindergarten and the older children were quite happy to go and meet old friends or to make new ones. She saw the notice which showed her room number and as she neared her class which was now Tenth G she could hear a din of voices all talking at once and they made no sense. As soon as she entered the room a girl...

Part 6

Then Mr.Ramesh continued the lesson and gave them a lot of math problems as homework before leaving. His period was the last and after that everyone went downstairs waiting for their respective means of transport. So Pooja was waiting for her dad and Teju was telling something about "Indefinite Integrations" to which Pooja was listening with utmost interest. Then after their little discussion, Pooja spotted the new boy in her class who had brushed past her shoulder. She told about it to Teju and Teju said, “Look at that boy with his hair messed up and ruffled clothes I bet he did it on purpose." "Don't be so loud Teju he might listen and feel bad.” said Pooja. "If you ask me that guy looks like a beggar.” said Teju...... Just as Teju was completing her sentence a brand new black colored Mercedes Benz E-Class came and stopped near their entrance gate. Everyone were a little surprised on seeing such an expensive car near their little coaching center. Just th...
