The lost watch

Aadi returned to his home. He was extremely tired and just wanted to sleep but he can't miss his school as his dad has warned him that his studies should not suffer due to his training. He took a bath, got ready, and did his breakfast. As he was extremely tired, he requested his dad to drop him to school.

He reached to his school. He was about to go to his class when he saw Sam looking for something on the ground and he seems to be very worried. He went to him and called his name. Sam looked back and hugged him tightly. Aadi was confused as he has never seen him this sad. He rubbed his back, trying to make him relax. Then he took him to a bench and make him sit. By that time Isha had also arrived.
Aadi asked him the reason behind his being this much sad. Sam didn't say something for a few seconds and then started speaking," My dad bought home a watch yesterday. It was really beautiful and also very expensive, like really expensive. It has diamonds. I wanted to show it to you people so I kind of stole it from my dad's room. I thought I would keep it back after returning home. But now ,I can't find it. It is not in my bag. My dad would be really angry and kill me. And the most important thing is it was not ours. Sone friend of my dad has given it to him for few days as he was going out of town. "

"Sam, are you mad? Why don't you use your brain? We could have met at your home and see the watch." said Isha angrily and scared.

"Hey, now is not a time to think about the problem but instead we should find the solution. Sam, first of all, relax and try to think of all the things you have done and places you have gone to in a really detailed way." Told Aadi.

Sam took a deep breath. Isha gave him her bottle to drink water.

Then Sam closed his replaying all the activities in his mind. He said," I had my watch in the front pocket of my bag. I had some cash in the same pocket. I left the house early today due to the excitement. First I went to the cafe to have a cup of cold coffee. Then while I was walking, I saw a little, poor kid with his sister and both of them looked really hungry so I brought them a sandwich each from the nearby street food shop. Then I went to the temple as I do every morning. After coming to school, I went to the washroom where I kept my bag outside. Then I went to class where I found out that the watch is missing. I have looked in the washroom and in the ground but it's not there. I am doomed." Then he put his head in his hands.

Isha replied," We can only have a look at the school campus as we can't go outside till the school is over. I think you should call your father so that he can report it to police"
Sam rapidly shook his head and said," No! No! Not at all. I can't do this. You are not understanding it. My father's a really strict person. He would beat me with a cane."
Aadi said," Hey relax. We will try our best to find your dad's watch. There has not been so much time yet. We still have a chance to find it. We just have to find a way to go out of school."
Isha looked horrified and said," What! This is against the rules and we can't really cross the school boundary."
But Aadi said," I know it's wrong but both of you have done so much for me. So I don't care about the punishment or detention, I will do anything to help him."
Sam looked up and got really emotional and thanked both of them.
