I don't know about my classmates,but to me, Godhuli Ma'am was the best classteacher we had in our primary school years.I respect and love all my teachers but Godhuli Ma'am has always been a mother-figure to me.Maybe because she called me 'darling' at times....or maybe because I never messed up with transitive,intransitive and incomplete verbs in front of her.
This chapter is going to be on our nine year old protagonist and her friends(who are as mad as a hatter).
Remember the girl with those amber eyes?Yeah,I forgot to tell you....she used to have chubby cheeks as well.And class 3A being the not-so-kind class used to pull her cheeks quite 'mercilessly' at times.So one fine day,Debankana goes up to Godhuli Ma'am and complains in these exact words,"Miss,miss,they do my cheeks like this this,"and saying so,enacts the way we pull her cheeks.Nevertheless,despite all her hilarious endeavours,we continued to pull her cheeks.
Soon it was Children's Day....picnic time!!!I still remember how all of us planned for that trip to Millennium Park.Anwesha,Peurima and I-the 'Three Musketeers' as we called ourselves back then,sat together in the bus,singing and chatting.Blimey,we didn't enjoy any ride.....we just arranged sheets of paper to seat ourselves,ate and ate until we couldn't eat anymore(we had brought the tiffin from home) and came back home.
Everyone in the class had become unusually talkative that year.People fought over petty things,and petty issues among children were made into something big by the parents.Occasionally,we would make groups and talk about the latest episodes of CID or the Adambheriya(werewolf) which was hunting down children back then....ahem,we were nine year old kids back then.
Everything was so good back then....we fought,we cried but we never really took anything to heart...probably the innocence in our hearts was the reason....the only complicated thing was verbs and fractions.Now,when I look back,all I feel is-yesterday was far better.We should never have grown up.
