Duplicate Custodians

Chapter 5

PUZZLED, SCRAMBLED, BEWILDERED, ANTICIPATED...WHATTT???

That was so dazzling and instead mind-boggling that I almost slept and drooled during geography lessons. "So, winds and pressure are also factors which bring rain and thus there are some of these sources of rain listed on page 117 of your skills book everyone, like in Asia rains are sometimes brought by monsoon winds or western depression or relief. Due to the temperature inversion layer in the southern part of Asia or near the Equator, rains are expected at least a bit because of the temperature inversion layer. Got it, Maya? I hope this point is clear to you and everyone now. If you still have questions you may ask and these 10 minutes are for your note-making. Pin-drop silence everyone. I would check everybody's notes and submit the notebooks back in snack times. Don't forget to check the class cupboard. I'll take this test tomorrow for the whole climate chapter and hope you will score good marks.......Jasper Jem..." she was saying, "JASPER JEMM!!" she roared. I realized she was speaking to me. "Umm, yeah present", I raised my hand steadily and the class started to burst into laughter. The ugly embarrassed appetite started dwelling on my insights. "Jasper, come out. I want to talk". She ordered.

We escorted out into the main hall."Jasper, you are a responsible kid and a very genuine little human. I would have never expected any sort of laziness...and, er... Irresponsibility from you. Your notebook is incomplete, you don't take part in everyday class discussions. I heard your team is trying hard to accomplish scores in basketball, principal complained about you bunking physics class yesterday... Is everything alright? you sound disturbed. you haven't been taking breaks the past few days. your health is not really healthy to say. what's gotten in that head of yours? so strong that it is changing you. huh?" She sounded so eager to ask and so caring I almost felt a lack of mum Love, but instead, I said, "Ma'am, everything is super great. I guess I was just into trying to complete the Lego set along with basketball training sessions last week. you know we've got a competition to face. Also, we had our exams so it was all keeping my head pretty messed up. I am sorry and I'll take care next time. I will make sure you don't have e to be worried about me." I said. 

I wanted to smile that broad smile of mine, but deep under I couldn't find one. Miss Sara smiled back but did not look convinced. She shrugged and nodded, " If that's what you say, then I believe it. make sure you are eating well." and led herself to the second floor.

Aftermath class, I started walking towards the canteen. Those pictures and thoughts from the storeroom were still so confusing and tense they soaked me deep into the dark ocean. _______________________________________________________________________"Dearest Ava William, I love you. I always have. Times are hard here. Father and mother had started to suspect. I am trying my best to keep everything on pace but it is tiring me. I can't promise to bring everything back to its original and peaceful form, but yes Ava I promise to be on the right side with you. I don't know if the world would divide into two parts- bloves are really strong especially your dad and my dad are both really powerful and amongst that our children, need protection. My mother can take any decision which pleases her will and satisfaction, be it against the family benefit or not, she tends to move things. I suspect the move though. But, One thing I want to make sure of is that keep the children safe and hidden. if she comes to know about them, she'll hurry for them. might kill you and me in the process. those children are our only weapon, our only key to peace. don't let anything happen to them, AVa. take care of yourself. I'll meet you in the old grandpa village. until then, stay safe. YoursJeremy Oliver._______________________________________________________________________

"Beloved Jeremy Oliver,I am okay, so are the children. Jasper is a little sick these days and Elvina stays quiet. As if something has stolen her voice. Last night a woman visited the house. she looked strange. Father said I wasn't home, though I think she sensed my presence. she was in torn old clothes but I know she was the queen disguised in a beggar's clothes. I think she knows about me, and I wanted to tell you that I might go somewhere safe to bring up the children until the war gets over. IT suffocating, how this village is under someone's watch. You have to find a way out. get your mother's interest in something else. or else, safety is surely not meant for us. Ava William."________________________________________________________________________
