The Chemistry practical exam arrived and all weren't that confident enough. I stalled from the notes before. But after Sir had explained one more time I was able to understand. It was just a short ten mark exam. I took my seat. Sky sat next to me although he was free to sit anywhere. Sir called Lacy in front.
The test began. The exam wasn't difficult. It was comparatively easy.Especially the memory of the last sum which I would remember.
Sir asked me the answer. I said and he snatched my copy saying exactly the correct answer. Others were looking at me. Sir ordered me to leave the Hall.
Sky whispered, "What's the answer? "
"506"
"I'm doomed to check where I went wrong. "
My mind was in the ashes... How can he ask me in this situation? Sir on the other hand was towards the end with his back facing us minding the back bench and we were in front. I just glanced and immediately saw his mistake. As I was about to tell him Sir shouted, "HEY You, Get out!!! "
The scream...trust me could make anyone's senses go dumb and I felt a chill down my spine. The spooky feeling... as if I stepped my foot into a time bomb or worse than that.
But Thank God for my witty thinking at the peak moment. I pointed and spoke out in a murmur, "5 and 10 swap. "
That was more than enough hint I could give him and finally I left the Hall. Gray followed me and we both went to the class. I was thinking whether he would get my hint.
It's not that he isn't intelligent enough to understand hints but still I was worried.
Gray was chatting with me regarding term papers and other questions. I was replying to him. He attends Gym now. It's really cool. I was willing to apply for it but my schedule wouldn't permit that. Moreover, the rail tracks are getting repaired so the travel problem persists.
Sky came back. I asked him, "Could you solve the last problem? "
"Yeah.Answer was 506ppm right? "
"Yep! "
I couldn't hold in the fear I said promptly, "You know how much I got scared? I thought we would get caught... "
"But I'm not that naive, you know! And I won't let you get caught so stop worrying"
I was murmuring ...how many times did I almost get caught because of you! You don't have a single idea.
"What are you trying to say, Sunny? "
"Nothing.You again started calling me by that! "
"Sunny, Sunny what class do we have now. "
"You again... Maths class. "
Lacy from behind exclaimed, "Oh No! "
Sky exclaimed, "Oh Yes! ".
I started to laugh. Sky joined too. His sweet laughter made me feel the warmth. And because of that the recently received cold fear slowly began to drift away. I came to my normal senses and was relieved at last. Finally…
