282 The Last Day before Vacations

It was the last day of school before winter vacations were going to start. I remember it was 23rd December, and the weather was dry outside but cold winds were blowing frequently.

My eyes shifted towards the clock, waiting for the last period to get over so that we could get dismissed. And eventually, the bell rang as it was 4 pm and everyone let out a clamour of relief and the sound of benches being pushed aside and people standing up filled the classroom.

Everyone in the class was pretty excited since vacations were starting, and Christmas Eve was the next day. The noise of everyone chattering among themselves was enough to depict how lively the classroom was than usual.

My friends were discussing their plans for Christmas and it appeared like I was missing out on a lot of things. I wanted to go with them but at the same time; I didn't. My own mind was in a pinch of dilemma, which was making me rather indecisive than usual.
