Punished in School

One day I was highly shocked when the teacher threw my exercise book at my face. She stood there glowering at me with her huge eyes.

One by one the teacher repeated her nasty actions on a total of five boys. The whole class was dumbfounded by her sudden outburst of anger. We were merely kids and were terrified of her.

Then we were sent to the headmaster’s office. The five of us did not know what we had done wrong, but it must be something terrible. Still, we walked bravely into the office.

“You all are troublemakers, aren’t you?” the headmaster began. We looked at each other. What trouble did we make?

“I hear you never do what the teacher tells you.” We protested but were told to shut up. Gaurav, my classmate, had his hands in his pockets and the headmaster said, “Manners make a man. You’ve got no manners, boy.”

Then the headmaster went on to accuse us of not doing our work properly, being ill-mannered and noisy, among other things. I admit that our work was not top-class material, but the accusations were grossly exaggerated and totally unfounded.

Anyhow, each one of us received a cut of the headmaster’s cane. We were punished for flimsy reasons but what could we do? We could do nothing but walk slowly back to class.
