Ravi was now devising various plans on how to make her fall for him and for this he was taking the help of various sources which ranged from Movies to the Internet. So one day he came to the school early and found something lying on his place which was the last bench. Curiously he went and saw that it was an envelope. In his career as An Assassin he had seen many different kinds of envelopes some of which were bombs others which spread diseases but keeping all those thoughts aside. He opened the envelope and instead of any biological or chemical weapons he smelt sweet perfume from it and it contained a card inside - A Pink colored one with the picture of a girl and when he opened the card the words "Missing you a lot Lately." were inscribed on it and below them in a handwriting of a girl were the words-To you Ravi From "Me" any boy of his age if he had received such cards they would have treasured it but he had no reason to save such items so he took one good look at it once again and just tore the entire thing and threw it in the dust bin.
He felt the presence of a person from outside watching him but before he could see the person they went away.Later that day their class teacher Ms.Savita came and announced that they would be having Assignment tests from the next day and the portion would be one lesson in each subject.
5 days later........
5 tests had finished and Agent Scar knew he had done them extremely well, who wouldn't if they got to know the question paper the previous day itself thanks to King's Men and all he had to do was learn by heart a bunch of questions and reproduce them exactly. Even during these tests he kept getting greeting cards from his mysterious admirer - "Me". As the days passed by Agent Scar felt that the cards were getting more idiotic and Ravi more Romantic. On the sixth day of the week when they had the last test he came and found another card waiting for him on his place and in the card was a little hand written message,"It's easy to have someone in your heart and very difficult to be in someone's so respect the heart that cares for you. And Please Don't ignore "Me"."
Ravi kept that card in his bag instead of throwing it into the dust bin. During the test he finished the answering the paper a good 30 minutes before the stipulated time and was idling his time thinking about various plans to make the girl sitting in front(-Pooja) fall for him. Then he heard a whisper calling his name from behind.
Ravi slowly leaned back and asked,"What is it?" Shreya asked him slowly if he had got the answer for the 9th question.
Ravi said,"Yes" and then she asked him if he could tell her the answer.
Agent Scar read in Everything You Need to Know Books that -"Cheating is Bad" and he said the same thing to her and she said ,"Oh Knock it off Ravi it's not bad if you have a solid reason."
Then Ravi asked her one more question,"How Can I tell you an entire answer?"
Shreya thought how ancient Ravi is and said,"Just put your answer script to one side and I will write."
So as he was asked Ravi did and after sometime Ravi asked her if she had written it and she said,"Ravi I can't understand a thing you have written, your handwriting is so shabby, ask Pooja to give her paper."
Then Ravi tapped Pooja's back with his pen and when she leaned back said,"Shreya wants your paper."
Then Pooja turned back glaring at Shreya and in reply Shreya made requesting gestures. Then again Pooja turned front and checked if any invigilator was watching them. Once the Coast was Clear she quickly gave the paper on which the 9th answer was written to Ravi and he passed it back.
After the exam was over Pooja gave an earful to Shreya about how she was wasting her time and that she should concentrate more on studies. Shreya simply smiled and said,"I don't need to worry about my studies as long as you are there for me."
Pooja said,"Ask me next time and the only thing you are going to get from me is a punch."
It was the last period for the day and it was English so Ms.Savita entered the class along with the corrected answer scripts. They were not sorted according to Roll No.s and students were being called out randomly to collect their papers.
Pavan Kumar had got the highest in English 24 marks out of 25 which was not a surprise to anyone because he was highly talented in the field of English and Math having written several novels in English all of them waiting to be published.
Pooja was next with 22 out of 25. Then the last person to receive the paper was Ravi and when his marks were announced all were a little surprised as he had scored 23 out of 25.
Then their teacher called him out of his place and spoke to him personally,"Ravi I am a little surprised at seeing your Answer Script. All the answers are written just as they are in the text book without missing even the punctuation marks."
Ravi replied,"Is it wrong to write like that."
Savita said,"No Ravi, I don't mean that but we here at St.Joseph's don't want students to read only for marks but for knowledge of the subject."
"Madam,what are you trying to say.",asked Ravi.
"Read Pavan's paper Ravi, look how well he has written the answers on his own without deviating from the Subject, I want you to write like him.",said Ms.Savita.
"How am I supposed to do that?",asked Ravi and after thinking for a short while Ms.Savita said,"Ravi first of all read voraciously all kinds of books you find in the library, then start writing a diary about your day to day activities. That way slowly but surely your English will improve."
Ravi asked for the final time,"Anything else Madam?"
Ms.Savita smiled and said,"Ravi you have to improve your handwriting, it took me a lot of time to correct your paper and I don't think all the teachers have that kind of patience."
Ravi just walked away. The bell rang and the students were getting ready to leave. Pooja came to Ravi and said,"Congrats I saw your paper,you have a good memory Ravi really."
Ravi smiled and said,"Thanks Pooja, Anyone can have memory but only a few like you have talent to write on their own and I think that's what is really great."
Those words made Pooja blush a little. Shreya came towards them and told Ravi,"Today is my birthday and the Party starts at 6 PM."
Ravi wished her a Happy Birthday. Ravi saw that most of the Students who secured less marks than they expected were trying to dispose of the papers in various methods and Shreya asked Ravi what he was going to do with his paper.
Ravi simply said,"I have no one to show my paper to." So he tore it made it into a plane and flew it.
The design was a little different and because of that the Plane went really far and high. Shreya was amazed by the flight of that little plane and asked Ravi if he could teach her how to make the plane in that method and Ravi said,"I will teach when I come to your house for your Birthday Party."
Then after Ravi left Pooja came to Shreya and said,"Hey why did you ask him to come an hour before the party begins. What are you planning to do ."
Shreya smiled shyly and said,"Something Personal."
Nodding her head in dismay Pooja went away and Shreya was waiting eagerly for the clock to strike 6 PM.
He felt the presence of a person from outside watching him but before he could see the person they went away.Later that day their class teacher Ms.Savita came and announced that they would be having Assignment tests from the next day and the portion would be one lesson in each subject.
