82. EXAMS AND A DISASTER

Today is my fourth paper which is Maths. I have prepared so I don't think anything can go wrong.

I am already sitting in the exam hall as always some people are praying while others trying to arrange things for cheating properly. As always they don't know how to shut up if they could just keep it down I will be able to concentrate on my paper.

AFTER A WHILE:

The exam has started now let us begin to complete the paper. Oh my God, what is with this question? I just can't solve it. It doesn't look difficult but the answer that I am getting is absurdly infinity. How can infinity be an answer? There is something wrong with this or not. Maybe the examiner has deliberately given this question now let us leave it and do another question.

" Ma'am I think question 10 is wrong", a student.

He is talking about the same question which I also found wrong.

" Yes, ma'am I think it is wrong. ", another one.

" Wait for a minute I will call the exam coordinator to see what is going on. ", the examiner says, and then calls someone.

" Nothing is wrong with the question proceed to do your paper. ", examiner.

Ok, I will just leave it as it is.

----+++++------++-+-------

I am done with my Maths paper let us go home for now.

" Myra wait for me. ", Sam.

What is he doing here?

" Let us go together. ", Sam.

" What do you mean? What happened to your cycle? ", I say.

" Nothing I just thought it will be good to go to school by bus for a change. ", he says.

" As always you are weird. ", I say.

To which he doesn't say anything.

" Where is your phone? ", I ask.

" In my pocket. ", Sam.

" Why did you keep it in your pocket? Aren't you missing the love of your life?", I say sarcastically.

Again he doesn't say anything but just looks and smiles. Whatever I will just ignore him and keep walking.

It is already autumn. In our region, Summer lasts for only two months. Since it's noon. It is not that chilly but evidence of autumn is still here. There are dried and fallen leaves on the road. Migratory birds have also started to fly away to their next destination.

" Myra, Myra ....Are you even listening ?", Sam.

" What? ", I ask Sam.

" I said the bus has arrived.", Sam says.

Oh, we are already at the bus stop. Both of us get on the bus. This reminds me of all those strange incidents which I experienced while traveling with him. Now that I think about it we have a very unusual relationship. Sometimes we fight, sometimes we ignore each other and other times we just talk normally. Yeah, I think it's probably because both of us are weird.

While looking at him I realized something unusual. He has grown much tall. I hate this I also want to be tall but I don't think I am going to be any tall now. As a girl, I am very short than the average standard and now that Sam has grown tall I have become more conscious of it. I should start skipping. I have heard that once you skip you can grow tall. But I am going to be eighteen. Can I grow more than before I don't think so.

" Myra, M ...", Sam.

Did he just call me by my nickname?

" Don't call me that! ", I spat.

" I was just saying bye my stop is here. ", Sam with a smile.

Wow, he is bipolar. He is acting out of character. Is he writing another book on my life? Gosh, I guess I have a knack for being the character of a book.

AFTER SOME DAYS:

Finally, today is the last paper. After today I will be free. I have also completed my car model now I just have to submit it to see whether this method is only applicable to toy cars or if actual cars can also be built on this pattern.

Today is my Chemistry paper. I don't like Chemistry that much hopefully I will be able to do well.

" Ok, now sit down and be quiet; we are going to distribute papers. Write your details in the answer book and write your roll no. on your question paper as well. Your time begins now. ", examiner.

The question paper is not so difficult but I have my doubts on one question. I forgot about the chemical structure of naphthalene. I know that it has two rings but ...Never mind let us just do the rest of the paper I am sure I will be able to remember it soon.

" Ok, now only four minutes left. Check your details and prepare to hand over your paper.", Examiner.

Damn, I still don't remember it. Let us just write what I remember and complete our paper.

Oh no. Someone's phone is ringing.

" Whose phone is this? ", the examiner.

" Now whoever it is will suffer the consequences. I am checking all students. ", examiner.

Wait a minute something hit my foot. What is this? It is the phone.

What should I do? Should I just tell the examiner that if he doesn't believe me?

" Sir, someone's phone is under my table. ", I say.

He looks under my desk and asks me to follow him to the principal's office.

AFTER SOMETIME:

"You are saying that you didn't know it was under your table. " Principal.

" Yes sir. It was not there before but I am sure someone placed it under my table. ", I say.

" I think she is spouting nonsense, sir. It is not some kind of crime thriller. ", the examiner.

" Did you check the phone?", Principal.

" No, but I have informed security to check the cameras. ", the examiner.

" Miss Myra you will have to wait until we can confirm what happened if you want we can also inform your parents. ", Principal.

" No, sir. There is no need. I haven't done anything wrong so I don't think I need anyone's support. ", I say confidently.

" Alright then wait for the news outside the hall. ", he says.

I wait outside anxiously. I wonder what will happen to me. What if they don't find anything? Are they going to blame me for it? For now, I can just wait.

AFTER AN HOUR :

" Miss Myra principal is calling you inside. ", the registrar.

" Ok. ", I say.

" Miss Myra we checked the cameras. We can't find anything there. We don't know whose phone is it either because there is no sim or personal information on this phone. I think you need to call your parents. ", principal.

Damn, I don't know what to say.
