Life Of Friends #Sometimes Sweet, Sometimes Sour

Part 5

It was the vacation time before school reopening and Emily was off to meet her grandparents and cousins while her friends were off too somewhere on this land.

The mid of April had arrived again, with the same new excitement about the class- shuffle. Emily looked towards the boards carrying the name of students with wide open eyes. She was eager to find her class. Little Miss. Emily Spencer was now in Std.7th.

Again the suspense started as everyone was praying to have their friends in their respective classes. Em was lucky in this case but was unaware. Emily, Stacie, Gracie, & Flora - four of them were in the same class, each, unaware, when suddenly Stacie found Emily in between the crowded heads and waved and yelled "Helloooo!!!"

"At least someone" Em gave a sigh of relief.

"Good Morning Pupils" their new teacher shouted in order to gather each and every pupil's attention which followed a long introduction as well as a speech about acting mature now.

The new teacher wanted the students to act smart. Emily was immensely touched by the teacher's speech and started making her life goals when something unusual interrupted her thoughts. She heard the teacher yell "....your bags please."

"What?" Emily inquired Stacie.

"She is shuffling our places so that we make new friends." Stacie told with a voice filled with sorrow. Both Em and Stacie, with a heavy heart, lifted their school bags when Emily gave Stacie a confident smile and bid her bye with a giggle.

All the boys and girls were asked to arrange themselves in two lines respectively, standing according to their heights - from the shortest child, to the tallest one.
