Excuse me mam , may we come in ? Asked Lucy.

Prof : you are five minutes late ladies. Mind to say the reason .

Isabel : Actually mam , at washroom...

Lucy interfered " Actually the washroom was crowded mam . So it took some time , you see ."

Prof: Punctuality is the habit that reflects respect and discipline .

Isabel : This won't happen next time mam . Please Pardon us this time alone .

Prof: This is your first and last warning . Hope this doesn't happen in my class ever again .

they both nodded and got inside .

They went to sit on their places . Peter stood to give them space .

Sebastian: what is the purpose for lying , madam ?

Lucy: who said that we lied ?

Sebastian : well that means half truth and half lie .

Lacy : How did you find ?

Johnson: you didn't let Isabel to speak . Because she won't speak lies and may reveal something . Right?.

Lucy: you are right.

Peter : Okay, tell us what happened ?

Isabel: Not now Peter . After the class ends , I will explain everything .

Peter : okay , fine then , I will just wait .

Then five of them were listening the class .

But then an old lady came and said " Headmaster is calling Peter, Sebastian Isabel , Johnson and Lucy . "

Johnson : we are done for today .

Sebastian : surely , we are son .

Peter : what have you done guys ?

Isabel : we didn't do any mistake.

Professor : stop muttering yourself . Go to office. I hope you all submit your homework by tomorrow morning.

They all said " yes mam " in unison.

They all went to the office and stood before the door .

Sebastian: ladies first .

Lucy : everyone is equal .

Peter : let our faithful girl go first .

Isabel: Fine . I am up for it . We're in a same boat anyway .

She opened the door and they all went inside one by one .

HM : welcome ladies and gentlemen.

He invited. Suddenly he was called by someone from outside his office.

HM : excuse me guys . I will be back in a moment.

He left out .

Sebastian: i thought to say " greetings , old man ."

Isabel stamped on his foot .

Sebastian: ouch ! It's hurting Isabel.

Isabel : i am protecting you from your evil action.

Sebastian : this is how you protect. ?

Protecting someone by stamping feet on them. ?

Peter : you could have protected Clara in the same way .

Lucy : she's not our cup of tea .

Peter: you are right . Drinking tea makes us relax . She can't do that .

Johnson and sebastian laughed .

Johnson : if we get caught cracking up ,

we are toast today !

HM : did I heard anyone saying toast ?

Peter and sebastian said at the same time .

Sebastian : one day , I'll be the toast of the town sir .

Peter : today morning the sandwich was toasted well sir .

Other three in their minds : Tripped over air molecules . ( Extremely clumsy).

HM : seems like your plan didn't work . Try better next time .

Peter : we are sorry sir .

HM : I have been in your age men . I can understand.

Isabel : Sir , can you say the reason for calling us ?

HM : Just before you came , Clara said about your fight .

Lucy : Then you might have known that , we didn't do any mistake.

HM : look that's why I called you .I want you to share what happened .

Lucy explained everything.

HM : Actually Clara said somewhat differently.

Then he called out for Clara.

HM : since , you had a fight .You all are getting punished .

Clara : But sir ..

HM : no excuses Clara.

Johnson : we just rebutted sir .

HM : how about this John? ,Peter no excuses, Sebastian no excuses, Lucy no excuses. I'll just say like this . That would be better right?.

" no sir " everyone said together.

HM : now dismiss and go to pluck grass on the ground .
