Finally, as the days flew around without much of an excitement and details, my life sucked and I had to look gloomily at the gray doom standing with pride of about a fifty or more years of success/ history. Gah, that has never helped me swell with pride. In fact, I have done everything in my power to never like this doom. Today, I planned to go low pro, a safe day, a safe weekend and at the end of the day... go home!

Certainly, life has planned much more excitement than what we always plan and so I was met with the biggest blunder today. I was trying my best to keep a low pro and walk out when my head struck into the biggest and most popular soccer player Adam, he stood there like nothing happened and when he turned around to see me, he acted as if he was about to fall. Hurt beyond the limit, I smiled my signature style and he flinched staring at me with an expression I have seen in Alex, so, I walked out after flipping my favorite finger. 

I looked back to see him tracing my big silhouette. I assure you I heard him whistle. I kept my head held high with a poker face saying: 'Like I care'. 'So much for keeping a low pro', I mentally scolded myself while reaching the safety of my locker which was situated at the far end, a safe place. Taking out necessary things, I closed the door to see a much excited Ann.

"Hi there, how was your weekend?" I chirruped to which she dismissed it eagerly to talk about something else.

"Did you know, that Lena...has come back to pay revenge?"

I couldn't help myself but gasp at the revelation and I was scared. I couldn't afford to do anything as in medical terms if she does things to me like I did to her.

"And, did you know? Her parents told her that they won't sue you because according to them, they scolded Lena for being a bitch and applauded you for standing out. God, I was shocked to hear this and came instantly to find you." She was laughing so loud that I held an amused grin to myself. I felt bad and good at the same time, but it was cut short by a piercing bell that resonated through the hall and then our principal's voice boomed through the speakers.

"Attention everyone, there is a notice from the principal's desk. Good morning everyone, there has been a fire attack in the library and school's records room which have spread to the computer section and offices. The fire was intentionally put and the CCTV has given us a vague idea of three boys and two girls running away from the library just before 6 today. Very soon, we will catch them red-handed and until then, you all will be under close watch. 

The school will be closed for two weeks for a quick maintenance and after that period, if the school remains in bad condition, we will let you know about the classes until then I request all of you including teachers, janitors, and all other staff members to not leave town. Thank you."

The place was unhealthily silent and the minute we heard the click, the hall was buzzing with frantic voices and fervent thrills. It is not every day we get to have something like this happen; most importantly making the school shut down. We were happy, so very happy for this unexpected vacation, but the thrill and fear were soon flushed to worry as the smell of fire spread through the hallway. Students and teacher alike shrieked and ran out and many fell in the stampede.

Ann ran clutching me and I was eager to get out alive. But unfortunately I saw Mrs. Celine in the music room screaming through the door but no one saw her. I broke from Ann and ran to the door which was hot and that was when I realized the fire is near. I didn't know how I opened the door but I did and she ran out coughing and gasping for air. It was then the smoke slowly crept and the crackling sound sounded so near, that I ran with Celine.
