(STORIES FROM THE SCHOOL – II)
Girl 1
She couldn’t answer –
Today too!
Meet me later.
What is the problem, dear?
I’m sc..a..r..ed..
Hmm… no more questions.
Let me know when you are ready.
Girl 2
She was late again-
Third day in a row.
Why?
No reply – as usual.
Her shabby uniform,
Skinny frame,
Terrified looks
Were no good signs.
Time to poke my nose.
I Think So 
Such empathy emanates from the teacher (I see you there 🙂 )
Children have such stories to tell us. And we cannot understand them.
Yes, all kinds of stories – only if we have the time and interest to look into and do something about them. Still many go undetected. God save them.
