Warisha's POV
"Assalamualaikum." Arham bhai came as we entered at the school.
"Walaikumassalam." I and Liya replied as Jamya was searching for something in her bag.
"Jamya,Arham bhai gave you salam." Liya smirked stretching her name.
"Oh,Walaikumassalam." Jamya replied trying to smile.
"You ladies ready to control a bunch of naughty children's?" He smiled.
"Obviously, I just hope they don't start pranking me." Liya said.
"That's because you yourself did this to teachers,right?" I said and she smiled cheekily at me.
"So,what subject?" I asked him.
"As much as I checked the routine,today's math for class 2. You two can take this." He said looking at Jamya and Liya.
"And bhabi,can you take science?"
"Science for class 2?"
"No,class 3. Just basic things. Today's Monday so we have class for 1-3. Thrice in a week. 4 and 5 are for the other three days."
"And what topic?" At last Jamya opened her mouth.
"Umm,I don't know actually. You can ask them."
"Ok then,show us the classes."
"Follow me." He said and we walked behind him.
"This is your home for next one hour." He said showing me a classroom.
"But,won't you introduce me? They don't know me." I said.
"Oh they already know that that have a new teacher so no worry." He said and I nodded my head.
"All the best." Liya whispered.
Am I going on a war or what?
I entered there and looked around. There are approximately 15-20 kids,all laughing and talking. Suddenly, one girls eyes fell on me and she whispered something to everyone. They looked at me.
"Assalamualaikum." I said,trying to keep my voice calm.
"Walaikumassalam." They replied after a moment of silence.
"How are you all?"
"Fine." Few students muttered.
"Good. So as you guys know, I'm your new teacher. My name is Warisha. I'll take your science classes from now on,In Shaa Allah." I said.
And silence. I wonder why they are like this.
"Any question?" I looked around at their nervous faces.
Shouldn't I be the one to be nervous?
"Will you mind if I ask you something?" One of the boys said looking at me with great effort.
"Sure."
"Will you scold or beat us if we don't do our homework?" He asked.
Scold or beat him? Do I look like a sumo wrestler to him?
"No,why would I do that?" I asked standing beside him.
"Two years ago,I used to go in another school. There was a teacher who used to give homework everyday. But few days,I had to go to work with ammi so I couldn't do my homework. Because of this,she scolded me even slapped me one day." He said lowering his head,tears in his eyes.
"No,I won't do it ever. If I do this,you all will be afraid of me,then how will I teach you things? And we are here to learn things,not too fight with each other." I said and heard few giggles.
"Didn't I say she doesn't look like khadoos?" A boy whispered in his ear.
"What is your name?" I asked him.
"Rahim." He said.
"Beautiful name. So now I know your name and eventually, I'll get to know all of your names." I smiled as I went towards the small board.
"So,what are we going to know about today?" I asked looking around. A girl advanced a book towards me and I took it.
I checked the book and it's quite good. Full with colorful pictures,good for kids. I wonder how they afford these books?
"Ok,so what about we know about water today?" I said and they nodded.
The rest of the class went without any problem, with some occasional questions and laughters. I must admit they are very enthusiastic.
It broke my heart to know that nearly all of them have to work everyday. And some of them are even dangerous,like brick breaking or construction work. These lovely souls are being crushed by the harsh reality. I just hope they come our of this and live the life they deserve.
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"Allah Hafiz." I waved to last of them as they went back after class.
"So,did you get any chewing gum in your hair?" Liya came.
"No,why?"
"I surely got hit by a paper plane." She said rubbing her cheeks, making us laugh.
"That's what you deserve." Jamya said.
"Look who's talking." Liya snarled.
"Now let's go,or else we'll be late. I have to take a nap." I said as we went towards the stairs.
As we came down,we saw Alyan rushing here.
"Oh,hello." He said,panting.
"What are you doing here? Don't you have duty today?" I asked.
"I had,but after that I rushed here as Arham called me about some emergency. What happened?" He asked,looking around.
We looked at each other questioningly.
"We don't know. What emergency?" Jamya said as Liya shrugged.
"Oh,you're here?" Arham bhai came,grinning sheepishly.
"What happened?" Alyan asked.
"Umm,I'll tell you but you just don't hit me." He said stepping back.
"Arham,tell me."
"Actually,I wanted to show them an experiment for fun. For that,I mixed some chemicals and it caused a small blast with black fluffy waste which splattered in the whole class. Now it's stinking and every inch of it is covered with black dirt." He said.
"You..you didn't do that,right?" Alyan asked with those round eyes.
"Look there." Arham bhai said and we looked towards the gate. Kids were coming out,all black with some sticky thing,laughing at each other.
"It's unbelievable. You stupid.." Alyan glared at Arham bhai.
"What did I do?"
"Didn't I tell you to not do this at school? Do you want to kill them?"
"Relax bro,they had fun."
"But how are you full clean?" I asked looking at him. He was totally clean,no trace of any dirt.
"Actually,I cleaned myself after this. And I was quite away,so I'm free." He said grinning.
"Now let's go and see what wreckage you created." Alyan said with a sigh and Arham bhai nodded.
And as he turned around,we went silent for a second before bursting out laughing.
"What happened? Why are you all laughing like this?" He asked raising his brows.
"You...you have...." Liya was trying to say but failed miserably due to laughter.
"I have what?" He asked.
"Your...your whole back became black." Alyan said,leaning on the wall for support.
"What do you mean?"
"He means you're looking like ghost from the backside. Your shirt..." Jamya said.
He pinched the corner of his shirt pulling it at the front to see and his eyes became wide seeing this.
"Oh Allah." He said and tried to clean this,but failed miserably.
"You all stop laughing." He said glaring but who cares.
"I said stop." He yelled again.
"There's something on your face too." Jamya said and he being a fool,touched on his cheek smearing all the dirt of his hand on his face,inviting another round of crazy laughter for us.
"What did you do?" Jamya said,laughing.
"It's because of you,crazy woman." He glared at he.
"How is it my fault?" Jamya returned the glare.
"Ahhh,forget it. Now how do I clean this mess again?" He whined.
"And it's been a while so it won't get away so easily." Alyan grinned.
"That means you have to roam around with this clown face." Jamya mocked.
"Let me show you what clown face is." Arham bhai said and took some of the ew thing in his hand,trying to splatter it on Jamya.
"Stop it..." She said trying to cover her face but a little amount of this fell on her nose,making it black.
"Huh,now I'm satisfied." He said smirking.
"Evil man." She mumbled taking out few tissues from her bag,sharing with Arham bhai.
Liya nudged me,smirking.
"Take a photo." I whispered in her ear,and she nodded taking out her phone slyly. As she was taking picture,I looked away and saw Alyan watching everything. He gave a thumbs up and I grinned.
Now I have the ultimate weapon to take revenge. Mua ha ha.
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"Warisha,open the door." Jamya slammed her legs on the door.
"We are busy." Liya yelled as we giggled.
"I'll kill you both and make your future husbands members of ever unmarried group, just open it." She screamed from out of the door but we didn't budge. We just continued munching chips.
"How dare you send this pictures to Maya? I'll peel your skins."
"Bla bla bla." I mocked.
"Look Liya,this girl is a witch,she will make you one too. Open the door."
"Hawww....you said that? Now I think I should send this pictures to Arham bhai too. Should I?" I yelled.
"Just dare to do that and I'll cut you both into pieces and distribute among cockroaches. OPEN THE DOOR."
Teasing her,I took my phone and started a nursery rhyme in full voice,irritating her more.
"Stop that." Again Jamya yelled.
"Did you hear anything Liya? I didn't." I teased her more.
"Uggh,I'll see you both." I heard Jamya say and then silence.
"Did she go back?" Liya whispered and I shook my head.
"I'm sure she's our there,waiting for us to come out."
After few minutes,we cautiously opened the door of the room and peeked outside. There's no sign of Jamya.
We silently went towards the kitchen, thinking she's in the other room. We were whispering and looking for something to eat for few minutes. Looks like khala didn't make any snack today. So we decided to make some pakoras,
"Oh hello dears." We halted on our steps hearing her voice. We looked behind and saw her standing with my phone in her hand.
When did she take this?
"What are you doing?" I asked her suspiciously.
"Nothing much,I heard you both coming out and grabbed your phone for a work." She said nonchalantly.
"What work?" I asked her.
"You'll see it in few minutes." She smirked and kept my phone on the table before sitting there with a smug look.
I checked my phone, but nothing was there. Glaring at her,I stepped towards the kitchen to go but halted as my phone rang.
I picked it up from the table and saw it's Maya,
"Hello." I said.
"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?" She yelled making me flinch.
"I'm preparing snacks,what happened?" I asked her,confused by her sudden yelling.
"Why did you send me that weird stupid video?"
"What video?"
"What video? Seriously Warisha,you could've kill me." She said and I looked at Jamya,who was smirking at me.
"I'll call you later." I cut the call and checked my messages.
"Oh my Allah." I muttered as I saw the video Jamya sent her from my phone. It's a video where a chair is moving with light sound and suddenly,a clown appears in front of the screen with loud scream. I had downloaded it to prank Amaya.
"Warisha,what happened?" Jamya asked me with an innocent face.
"You idiot." I threw an onion at her.
"Ask her how fun it was. Revenge for laughing at me." She said and both of them started to laugh like idiots.
I called her again and she received.
"Why did you prank me like this?" She asked me.
"I didn't do this,that's Jamyas work."
"What? But how?"
I narrated her the whole story and she was laughing.
"Yeah,laugh as much as you can. She sent these messages to few others too. I should get ready for scoldings." I face palmed as she chuckled.
"That was creepy though. I literally fell from the sofa."
"Hmm,now I'll go and try to remove these messages. Allah Hafiz." I cut the call and started deleting those, with occasional explanations.
"How was my surprise?" Jamya said putting her arms around my shoulder.
"Just like Arham bhai is for you." I glared at her as she grinned.
Friends can be more than witch sometimes.
