With a newfound goal, Zara called Veronica excitedly and told her about her mother's permission. They were seated in their class as usual and Zara couldn't concentrate on the teacher who was droning in the biology class.
The teacher, Mr. Harper, was a thin and slender man with a balding head. He wore his usual pin-striped shirt and trousers. "Ok, so class, who here can tell me what is the maximum speed of a blizzard?"
Nobody bothered answering and as usual, Zara's hand was the only one to shoot up, "Yes Zara"
Zara chirped as a parrot, "Blizzards are known to have crossed the speeds of 30, even 35 miles/hour"
Mr Harper smiled and then eyed Veronica who was doodling on her notebook, "Can you tell me what is the difference between a blizzard and a snowstorm?"
Zara began, "Well-"
Mr Harper interrupted her, "I was talking to your friend who is busy drawing circles on the empty pages."
