Forced

Chapter 1

Little Buds Kindergarten.

Lisa was silently observing the little kids playing around in the school playground, plastering a bright smile on her face when she suddenly heard a loud wailing from her back. Anxious, she went and approach the little girl who was crying her lungs out.

"Liya dear, what's wrong? Why are you crying, my dear?" asked Lisa kneeling on the same level as the little girl.

"Uuuu.Miss Lisa..uuh.Leo hit me." The little girl sniffled between words while pointing her chubby little hands towards a grumpy little boy on her side.

"Leo, why did you hit Liya? Didn't I tell you that one should never hit their friends?" Lisa asked facing the little boy.

"But Miss, Liya no play with me so I angry" Reasoned the little boy with a sad pout.

"But Leo hitting is a bad thing. Only bad people hit others. Are you a good boy or a bad boy?"

"Good boy, Leo is good boy, Miss," Leo replied.

"Then was it a good thing to hit Liya?"

"...., sorry Miss, I no do it again. " Leo said grabbing his two tiny ears.

"Whom do you have to say sorry to again? "

"Sorry Liya, I no do it again " Leo apologized facing the little girl.

Liya did not respond but just continued to stare at Leo with a sad pout.

"Liya, what do you have to say when someone says sorry to you?" Lisa couldn't help but remind the little girl.

"It's okay, it happens. " Liya replied after much hesitation, to the little boy who was still holding his ears, waiting for her to forgive him.

"Now both of you hug each other and make peace" Exclaimed Lisa with a smile.

The two quickly hugged each other and giggled. Seeing this even Lisa couldn't help but giggle along with them.

"Miss Lisa, Miss Lisa. Look what I got for you." A chubby little boy could be seen running towards them with a small flower in his right hand.

Since his eyes were only on Lisa and the small flower in his hand, his inattentiveness toward his surroundings made him stumble upon a small rock and fall flat on the ground. Luckily he was wearing thick clothes so he didn't get any injuries or scratches.

The fallen boy looked ahead with tears welling in his eyes, almost on the verge of streaming down his cheeks but as soon as he saw his teacher shaking her head side by side as if telling him not to cry, the boy quickly stop his tears from falling and got up by himself and ran towards his teacher.

"See Miss, Samy did not cry. Samy is a good boy. " Exclaimed, the little chubby boy, proudly.

"Yes, my Samy is not only good but he's also very strong. " Lisa praised. "Now quickly show me your muscles."

The said boy quickly showed his muscles to his teacher happily.

"Wah! Such a big muscle. My Samy is so strong, Miss is so proud of you. " chirped Lisa, making the grin on the boy's face even larger.

"But Miss the flower is already spoilt" Samy complained, once he took notice of the already withered flower in his hand.

"Aww, it's okay my dear. You are miss' most precious flower. " coaxed Lisa kissing his chubby cheeks which immediately lightened the boy's mood again.

"And what about us Miss Lisa, are we also your precious flowers? " Asked Liya expectantly while holding Leo's hand.

Lisa looked at them both and smiled.

"Yes, you all are my precious little flowers. Miss loves you all so much and so Miss will work hard and help you all bloom as the most beautiful flowers. Will you listen to your Miss and let me help you bloom? " Asked Lisa.

"Yes, Miss. " The three shouted excitedly.

"Aww, come here all of you, and give Miss a big huggie. " The three quickly embraced Lisa in a tight hug.

Seeing them hugging and laughing the other kids too came running and hugged them.

"Tring Tring..." The bell rang disturbing their little moment.

They all broke the hug. Lisa stood up and clap her hands to grab the kids' attention.
"Okay now, everyone makes the discipline train we'll go to our class now "
The students soon made a long line according to their heights (shortest to tallest) and put their hands on their friend's shoulders.

"Okay, children, now walk slowly and make sure you don't break the train"

"Hands on the shoulder, hands-on shoulder walking in the line, walking in the line. We are not in a hurry, we are not in a hurry. Slowly slowly." The children sang while walking.

"Hey! Don't push. Miss Lisa Lolo is pushing me. " One student complained.

"No pushing your friends, go slowly. " Lisa sighed and shake her head.
It's surely going to be another hectic day for her but anyhow, she loves this job. No matter how exhausted she might get one smile from her students is enough to make all her fatigues vanish in an instant.

"You can do it, Lisa! " She motivated herself and went inside the class.
