The class started to turn very boring and with time it was one of the most boring class of all times, it was English class going on. The reason behind class being bored was that the teacher was teaching “Importance OF Reading”. And whole class was yawning just because they never had read or wanted to read a book. They only came to college for getting a certificate in their hand once they complete the degree that too of the subject that they never wanted to take up but they were left with no option. I knew what must be going on in rest of the class as I was able to hear the yawning sounds. I had a smile on my face while I was looking at the teacher and she was looking at me because I was the only student who was interested in the topic she had chosen to teach because as per her it’s very importance to know importance of reading for people like us. I wanted her to take away eyes off from me for few minutes so that I can look back and see what is happening. I was so eager to look at their faces because I knew how funny they would be. Well it seemed as if that she has decided to keep her eyes glued on me and David. She stops for a while to look at her book, while she was looking at her book me and David looked at each other as if we had never seen and passed on a wide smile to each other. While we kept looking at each other with a smile, the teacher started to speak against and we looked at her with the same Seriousness as before and she continued speaking while again keeping her eyes glued on us. I and David wanted to look back just once to look at the funny faces but couldn’t. While she was teaching us, her phone rang she walked up to it, received it and walked out of the class. As soon she left I and David looked back and then at each other and bursted out laughing. We couldn’t stop ourselves from laughing seeing the whole class making different expressions and all were funny. Some had eyes half closed and some were sleeping, some confused faces and some faces were waiting for class to end. A boy stood up and walked upto the door, took a look outside and got on the place where the teachers deliver lectures. As he climbed up to the podium, I looked at David and told him, something funny is going to happen and whole class will enjoy. David looked at me and said “The well known naughty boy of our class”. I said a “Hmm” and we both laughed and waited for him to speak. On podium he got busy with his phone while we eagerly waiting for him to speak.
In the meantime my phone buzzed and it was a message from Haider and it brought a smile on my face. I took my phone from my back and opened the WhatsApp. In the message he was asking me about how my day is going. In the reply of the message I explained Haider how the discipline committee is waiting for me and how funny the class is going. Haider read the message and asked me to call while I reach home. I said a okay and kept my phone back in my bag. And soon the boy on the stage started to speak. And in his speech he said that it’s time to get some fun and whole the class said yesssss and I looked at David and we both laughed. He continued to speak and the whole class listened to him as if he was teaching something from within the subject. I looked from the window and the teacher was so busy in phone. The guy asked class to be fully supportive and in no case name anyone. The whole class again with full energy said yesss. The guy came down from the podium and walked to his bag , opened it up and covered something with a towel and walked to podium again and then removed the towel and everyone in the class screamed especially the girls. It was a big spider in the box. I again looked at David and said “This guy will do something really stupid, teacher is seriously afraid of Spiders “. David blinked his eye and we both looked at the guy again while he started to speak about his plan. Before he spoke he walked upto door and looked at the teacher and when he found teacher busy with the phone, he walked up again and spoke saying listen guys we have to make sure that this class turns funny and we don’t have to get bored again .The guy asked them to be confident and not to disclose who this plan was of. Well I know even if a single student gets caught the student would name his guy. But this time everyone stand yes yes yes yes . I deep down knew that this guy is going for sure. He explained his plan and went back to his seat and after some time teacher came and again started to teach. The guy let out the spider and it started walking towards the stage while she was busy writing something on board the spider reached to the stage as the teacher finished writing on the board she turned to students the first thing she saw the spider and as she saw the spider she fainted and fell on the podium and whole class had red face and everyone was looking at each other. I looked at the guy who’s this plan was and he was about to faint , then I looked at David he was worried like anything and he said “Raqif we all are gone especially this guy” . David this is going to be seriously stupid thing to deal with. The Director of the college is already annoyed with this guy. All the Students in the class were frozen in their seats and everyone had mouth wide open and face red. I and David walked up to the teacher and checked her pluses and her pluses were very low . David took out his phone and asked his driver to come to college and so did I. We asked boys to help us to so that we could take her to first aid room. We took her to the room and her Blood pressure was checked which was very high and the lady there said that she has to be taken to hospital as soon as possible. As we were talking what to do the Disciplinary committee secretary came in and spoke with anger who did it he was very anger and was shouting like anything. He looked at me and said “Raqif you are the class CR how did this happen ” . I was frozen standing and so was Daivd. The Secretary asked me to go and inform the Director. As soon as the Secretary said Director I felt what’s coming for everyone of us especially for me and David as we unfortunately are the class representatives. The way to Director’s Office is from our class so before I went to his office, I entered into my class and asked them to be ready as Director is going to get involved, I left and walked to the office , opened the door of his office, after knocking on the door and asked for his permission to get in. He allowed me to come in and asked me to sit. I took the chair and thanked him for allowing me to sit. The Director asked me why I am there. As soon as I told him the whole story his face turned face and he stood up , so did I and he asked me who did it . I had nothing to say so I just stood rolling my head down. He walked out of the office, I followed him, the first thing he did was to enter our class. As soon as he entered the class he got on the podium, he in firm voice he ask class to name who was the guy who did it. Everyone was numb in his seat. He walked up to the guy who planned it and held is collar , pulled him up and him that is he the one who’s behind all this . He said a “NO” in a frightened tone; he left his collar and walked out of the class. I was frozen standing at my place. The Director shouted as he didn’t see me behind him . I was shaken with the shout and so was the class. I started to run while saying sorry. I followed him to the room . He entered the room and everyone stood up, I gave a worried look to David and he gave back a look asking me not to worry. The Director turned to me and David and said in the high voice “What were you guys doing in the class , how did this happen , tell me me” the Director said looking at us with face red with anger. We both had nothing to say just to keep our heads rolled down. The Director took out his phone and called the president of Discipline committee. He came within a minute and as soon as he entered the room the Director asked him to file a complaint against the class and start the investigation. I will personally be monitoring this case the Director firmly told the committee president. And yes suspend the whole class till the investigation isn’t completed and impose a huge fine on whole class and the one who fails to pay terminate the student. Director was very anger with what had happened in the class. As the president of Discipline committee started to leave he stopped him and asked him to exclude me and David from all the investigation, suspension and Fine. This was a really sign of relief for us. When he left the room the Director turned to us and asked us to come to college daily to assist in the investigation. While we were talking about all this the Secretary of director came and informed us that the ambulance has come. We lifted the teacher on the stretcher and got her in the ambulance. The Director got in the ambulance and closed the door saying “Go to your class and tell them to be ready to pay”. The Director said it and the ambulance started to leave the college and we watched it till it was out of seen. And as it was completely out I and David started to walk towards the class to tell them what is coming for them.
