Chapter 4 - CATHERINE

During the break, Lucy and Isabel went to the loo while boys went to canteen .

Lucy : I have a happy news Isabel .

Isabel: what news ? I am so excited . hurry up .

Lucy : I am going to stay with you in hostel.

Isabel : Really ?

She hugged her .

Isabel: I am really happy. You know how it feels to be alone ?

Lucy : well , you are not alone anymore .

Isabel: you are right.

Lucy : let me use toilet first. My tank was filled when second period began itself .

Isabel laughed hearing that .

Lucy : why are you laughing ? . The most toughest thing is to control the nature.

Isabel: You drank too much of water during class .

Lucy : Everyone says that drinking water can help to keep mind active and avoid slumbering. I felt really sleepy and I had only this way .

Isabel laughed.

When they entered, the washrooms were already occupied.

Lucy : my god, I have to control some more minutes.

Isabel : I know you can do it, Lucy .

Lucy : you are not cheering me , Isabel.

Isabel : ok fine . I zipped my mouth.

Finally a door opened . Clara came out of it .Lucy and Isabel thought to just steer clear of her ( to avoid someone to avoid conflict ).

But Clara didn't feel the same way .

She murmured " some street pooches ( dogs ) always comes in my way. "

But Lucy, Isabel and other girls in the floor bathroom heared her clearly . But the other students paid no mind because they knew that , the comment was not intended for them . Lucy just thought to shout but Isabel held her hand as if telling her to stay composed. Isabella whispered in her ear " just do the work you want to do .Then let's move out from here . Got it ? "

Lucy shook her head in acceptance and went into a free bathroom.

As soon as she went inside , Clara began her work .

Clara: They are Just running from me . But the sad truth is they don't even have any place to hide other than the toilet .

Some laughed and some turned a blind eye. But one girl came in front and asked " Clara , what's your problem? Can't you even stay silent in the bathroom ? "

Her name is Catherine . Everyone was shocked especially Isabel .

Clara : Hello cat . Don't you think it's none of your business ? , since you are from another department .

Lucy entered from bathroom .

Lucy : Your problem is with us . It has nothing to do with her , Clara .

Clara : shut up , you imbecile ( stupid ). Then she shouldn't have stood against me .

Catherine : Actually, you were right . I am not from your department to interfere but this place is NOT your private property miss Clara .

Clara : I think you forget that this school belongs to my father which means I am the next owner of this school.

Lucy : so , why don't you ask your father to build a school only for you to study .

Catherine : Let's see if she can atleast learn discipline then .

The girls around them were controlling their laugh very hard . Girls inside the bathroom just opened the tap so that they can laugh freely . Girls who were waiting for the bathroom to be opened bit the tongue and teeth .

But then the bell rang and everyone started to move around, some stood there to use the washroom. Catherine, Lucy and Isabella moved out from there , as quick as possible.

While walking through the veranda , Isabella said thanks to Catherine .

Catherine : No , it's fine . I was having a head ache since the morning and listening to her was really became an unfeasible (impossible) task for me .

Catherine went into her class while Much and Isabel were still walking.

" thank you god , for helping us ." Sighed Isabel .

Lucy : surely , he did . But It would have been much better if he hadn't given us the problem.

Isabella : Life is 10 percent what happens to you and 90 percent how you react to it .

Lucy : Thanks for your philosophy.

Soon they reached the class .

* just let me *

Let me fall down , so I can soar like an eagle .

Let me face my problem all alone ,

So I can help others in their problems .

Let me face the reality,

So I enjoy my happiness in reality .

Let me face the THORNS in my life ,

So I can feel the softness of petals in my life .

Let me taste the bitterness , so I can taste the sweetness .
