Innocence

Chapter 3: Once I was seven years old

"Zayn get up" my mother screamed to wake me up as it was 7 in the morning and my bad it was my school time. "First wake Mustafa up, (my younger brother) then I am going to get up from the bed", I replied in a whining tone. I was very happy as it was my first day at my so called senior school at least I could call my school senior as I was promoted from primary level finally to grade one and having this in my mind I entered in my school with proud and pretending myself as a grown up individual. First two classes were too boring but our third class was of maths and I was looking forward to it so when the teacher entered, our whole class did that cheesy "Good morning teacher" and I am so embarrassed to tell that I also did that too. The first day passed and gradually the year also passed within a glimpse and as a famous poet, Henry Austin once said, "Time goes, you say? Ah, no! alas, time stays, we go". I got very good grades and some certificates that I even was perplexed to see how I got. I also made some new friends their but most of my friends were girls but literally I don't know why I was that much attracted to girls at that age but maybe I have an answer probably it is because my female friends could be fooled easily unlike my male friends and in addition to it girls can not differentiate between lame joke and a joke so it became easier for me to entertain them even without knowing a great deal of funny jokes. I used to have a very creepy habit of laughing even on serious stuff and I was badly penalized of my cheeky behavior by my teachers. Even I used to laugh during my punishments and sometimes even I was punished for assisting my friends with the stationary like once in the maths lesson one of my weird friend asked for an eraser as you know kids have a unique love with an eraser and luckily at that time my friend Momina was sitting aside me and I wanted to earn my numbers by passing my rubber to that bald fatty friend as he was sitting behind me so I swing my chair and with a flying hand moving backward I passed the rubber to him and my bad just on an another instant my teacher pulled my chair to the ground and made me stand and I was damn embarrassed because Momina was mocking me and then I realized that seriously being a kid sucks.
