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 have a membership here."

"Ohh Ravi that name sounds familiar.",said the librarian who was a funky teenager and spoke with a strange accent.

"Look, just tell me where are those books OK."Ravi snapped.

"Hey hey what are you getting excited about.",said the funky teen librarian and he checked the library's database and after a few seconds said,"Dude you do have a membership and you have issued 3 books which are kept on table no.5 you can sit there and read them and remember mate no tearing and no writing on the library's books."

Even as teen was completing his sentence Ravi walked away from him and searched for table no.5 and found 3 books one larger than the other lying on top of the table. Ravi picked up the first book which was the thinnest of them all and it's name read-"Everything You Need To Know-Child's Edition.

Ravi started reading the book and in that book he found information on everything from alphabets, poems to good manners etc. he did not see the time and by the time he finished it, it was almost closing time for the library.

The funky teenager came and said,"Hey man everyone left and now its closing time come back tomorrow if you want to still continue reading it." Ravi wanted to just get up and go but he read in the "good manners section" of the book that if someone talks politely with you reply politely, so instead of doing what he was urged to do he smiled back at librarian and said,"I have finished reading it you can put it back where it belongs." and left the place.

The librarian was shocked at the behavior of Ravi because on the same morning Ravi behaved strangely and now he was behaving very "Normally". So he put the book where it belongs and left the library.

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...

“Pooja wake up, time to go to classes”, said a voice trying to wake up the half asleep girl to which the girl replied, “Mom today's the first day of school I don't want to go to Verma coaching institute at least once“ The girl's mother was now annoyed and sternly replied, “I don’t care if it’s your first day of school or not you are not going to miss even one day of coaching classes Pandu” That was it ”Mom don’t call me Pandu I am not 7 year old, I used to like it when I was little but now it’s strange so stop it and ok ok I will get ready soon” She quickly got ready and as usual her father dropped at the Coaching Center. He then said that he would come and pick her up after the classes and went away. Pooja was already late and she was walking fast towards the steps she stopped when she heard the footsteps of someone coming quickly towards her.

As the weeks passed, the park whose plan was laid by many engineers was taking shape by the help of students and anyone who was interested in helping. Saturday evenings and Sunday afternoons were spent in gardening, digging dirt, planting saplings etc. but Pooja had to make up a lot of stories to come out of her house every week which included everything from " Special Classes At School to Visiting a Sick Friend ". One such Saturday evening while she was working on the Flower Beds near the Entrance Gate, she was working without a care in the world, Ravi came and joined her and they were working so hard that they got mud spots in many places on their faces and then Ravi asked Pooja,"Hey Pooja, how is it that you manage to come twice every week while others want to skip their share of work by giving some reasons." To this Pooja smiled shyly and replied,"Well Ravi the thing is that, I have a lot of childhood memories of playing in this green lot and I didn'...
