The Test Paper

 

Nandini Bohra, Class X E

Woody handed over his test paper to his mother, anxiously waiting for her to react. It was a class test of English, in which the students were required to write a story on a topic given to them.
Woody was never great at story writing but this time he had done a tremendous job. He scored a perfect ten-on-ten!
After his mother finished reading his story, she hugged Woody. Woody could see tears rolling down his mother’s cheeks. He consoled her and said, “Don’t cry, mumma. Everything is alright now.” His mother calmed herself and smiled.
What happened was that, the topic for the story Woody had to write was ‘An Accident’. Woody had sat staring at the paper for a long while. He had then mustered up courage to write about when he was just two years old and news had arrived that his father had met with a fatal accident. What had his mother not done to never let him feel the absence of his father!
When Woody’s teacher read the story, she was touched. That day, Woody and his mother did not speak to each other. They were lost in the past somewhere.
