1 Our group discussions...

We are a friend circle of five, although there are many more friends of each one of us, but there is something that is different about us. Actually, we are each other's best buddies to such an extent that many a times it isn't even necessary for us to complete a statement, it is just a word or an expression and all of us would easily get what the person is saying or what she meant to say. One can say that we have been with each other for such a long time that we are actually able to read each other's mind. One more thing is there that is common with all of us that is; we are of the type of people who love to discuss about our dreams that we saw while asleep.

By the way, this is Susan, a teenage girl who likes to read, write, have fun with friends, play piano and flute and enjoy her life to fullest. My friend circle consisted of Manjula, Pinky, Sweety and Sam (all of them girls). Actually, Sam is having a name too tough to pronounce that we all agreed that we will call her Sam, and eventually even the teachers started calling her Sam.

One day, we all were seated altogether in the library whispering to each other and were about to begin our discussions about our dreams that suddenly our library teacher came. He was a person of about 30, always giving everyone long speeches of success or one can say, how to get success and to be honest, he was always right in all the teachings he gave because it was his dream(a real one) to see his students succeed and get the maximum that they can get from his library. He said to us with a big smile that it seems like we five were the biological sisters who were lost in a fair and that we ended up together as classmates (we were always sticked together, ya know). After having a small conversation with us, he left to continue his work (well, the conversation wasn't that small actually).

Finally, our conversation started... First, it was Sweety 's turn to tell her dream. She started with a long smile and we all understood that it was going to be something good. Her dream was actually like this : In her dream, we all were together, sitting in a hall and planning to go to some tourist place to have some fun. After some discussion we all decided to go to a hill station on the next Sunday to be. She was given the responsibility of booking the tickets of hill station, hotel and car. Then, came the Sunday, and we all were united at her house to wait for the car and then suddenly the scene changed, the next moment we all were in the car and she herself was driving and suddenly somebody came in front of the car and we all shouted at her to stop but the other moment we saw that the person was none other than our common greatest enemy Sakhi, we all stopped shouting and she without hesitating ran the car into our beloved enemy. The car hit that (narcissist)girl and she started flying and finally dropped on an island, far away from everyone. We all were very happy, we laughed a lot and the dream ended.

We all ended up laughing in reality too, but we became quiet after a furious glance of our library teacher. Don't know why, but we all wanted this dream to become true, even though we knew that hurting someone isn't good, still we wanted this to be true and when we were thinking that suddenly Manjula starting to shout that, "For everyone's happiness this must become true, or else the world's goodness will vanish", but we all helped her in becoming quite, as Sir was still looking at us and we even told her that the way she was saying it looked like she was a leader and she was speaking about an important international issue.

Then came my turn. Although my dream was truly like a dream, but it was something different also. Thus, I put on a simple face and started my story : It was a school day and we all were in the school but there was something different as very few students were present in the school and everyone was assembled in lines for the morning assembly and coincidentally on that day our school was going to celebrate cleanliness day and our principal ordered strictly that no one is going to eat their tiffin boxes while assembly is going on and the student council was ordered to check and I being the school captain was the leader of supervision (actually, I am truly the school captain in reality). I suddenly saw my favorite teacher Miss. Manisha (she never taught me, she was a primary teacher but she accompanied me to an exhibition in which I was the representative of my school). I went to her, and talked about random things and then I asked her what was in her hands and she told me that her mother packed two tiffin boxes for her and she was finding someone to give her second tiffin to, and then suddenly she asked me that if I want it, coincidentally I was hungry and took it and even started eating, even though the morning assembly was still going on. After sometime when the tiffin was about to finish, I heard that principal sir is coming, so I helped myself in eating my tiffin faster and ran to staff room, avoiding principal sir and reached their safely. I was just going to place the tiffin on Madam's table that I thought I must wash it, as I am the one who ate it. I thought that principal sir would have reached the stage by now, so the school building will be safe to wander around and I started moving towards the taps. I suddenly saw my friend(not from us five, someone junior) running towards me and she said something while brushing past me but I wasn't able to understand it, so I kept on moving. The next moment, I saw principal sir standing in front of me and I ran behind thinking that he hadn't seen me. Not before reaching far away from him, I heard him shouting my name, I thought that I will surely be punished if he saw the tiffin in my hand, then suddenly I saw my junior friend from before not far away, so I handed over the tiffin to her and asked her to keep it for a while. Then I went to ask the principal sir that why he was calling my name, while praying in my heart that he didn't see me with the tiffin. When I reached to him, he asked me what I was doing there, I told him that I was just checking whether all the students have went to the assembly ground or if someone was still hiding in the school building. He said nothing and kept on moving. Then, I said to him that there is a lot of darkness in the school building so why do not he orders for more tube lights and bulbs, and then he replied to me that there weren't any funds. But I asked him that as far as I know, government gives a lot of fund to our school, so where does it goes and he replied calmly that obviously it goes in the pockets of people. I just jokingly asked him that whether it goes in his pocket also and to my surprise he replied yes. I was truly shocked. But the other moment, he said leave all the things and go to Mrs. Veena to ask for the cards that we were supposed to wear while cleaning. After this, he headed for stage and I went to Veena ma'am to ask for cards. When I went to her and was about to ask her about the cards, I saw that she was already having some colorful cards in her hands. After I reached to her, she shouted a lot at me and told me that she was searching for me since a long time but I was nowhere to be seen (well, it's natural, after all I was hiding and eating in some corner of the school). After finishing her long lecture, she handed over all the cards to me, and explained me that there are different cards for principal sir, vice principal sir, teachers, student council and students. She also told me that the card of principal sir has already been given to Mr. Verma, who will give this to principal sir himself, as principal sir were supposed to receive the card in front of everyone on stage with legacy. So, I looked at stage to see that legacy and to my surprise the time when verma sir was about to put the card in principal sir 's neck, the scene changed and....

The scene became the scene of marriage, while principal sir became the bride and verma sir became the groom and verma sir were about to tie the thread of marriage in principal sir 's neck that my dream ended.

This left all of us spellbound and this time it was impossible for us to stop our laughing. After trying hard, we all stopped laughing and continued our discussion. Sweety was spellbound with the fact of eating tiffin in the assembly (like who eats tiffin in the morning assembly), Pinky was mentioning about the funds going in senior teacher's pockets, Sam was still like: "Hey, our school isn't dark" and Manjula wasn't able to stop her imagination of what would have happened next in my dream. After discussing about all this and about the dreams of all other friends (except Pinky as she wasn't able to remember what she saw in her dream), no one of us was able to stop smiling and thinking what would have happened next and what will happen next?

Then the bell rang, and we headed to our class, smiling and laughing all the way...
