Little bodyguard....

It was pouring heavily already, when suddenly the school bus jerked a little hard on a puddle, full of rain water. While other kids easily managed to retain there balance, Jack who was fast asleep was about to hit his head on the metallic seat ahead. The boy's slumber broke as he tried to retain his balance, when suddenly two pale hands held him tightly from his waist, making him sit back upright.

The boy heaved a sigh of relief and turned to thank to the person, who had help him. He turned his neck and saw a cute young girl of about six years of age, was smiling looking at him. "Are you alright? Did you hurt your head?" The girl spoke looking at her the boy with her two big eyes. As she spoke her two ponytails, danced in the air, and her nose curled up a bit. 

"No. I am alright. Thank you." Jack pursed his lips, not smiling at the girl, but yet looking at her in much gratitude.
