First Day in School

Last night my mom told me about a place, where I would make friends and I would meet new people. She told me that I'll be alone there and she won't be around me. I didn't really understand what she said and I didn't really care.

Next day, my mom woke me up at 7am. She dressed me up in a new dress, blue in color. She made my hair and I even wore a white hairband. I felt different and even felt excited. I wanted to go to that new place which mom told me the other night. I was curious and nervous. It was a mixed emotion.

I got into our car, and I reached that new place, it was a huge building, in blue and pink color. It had many lotus plants and it was very green. It was my school as I was told later. When I reached to the corridor, I saw a woman calling out some strange names and was talking to other parents. I felt like I was lost.

Later, when our turn came she told my mom to go, I felt heartbroken and I started crying. I didn't want to leave her, I wanted her to stay with me. I thought what my mom said to me the last night was all a lie but she actually said the truth, I had to leave her. It felt like living a nightmare.

Later that day, our teacher, as I was told, was calling out our names, then she suddenly said 'Twinkle Rana?' and there was no answer. I thought a bit and from nowhere other teacher came and said "OH SORRY! Mrs Basu, I think there's a confusion, we have two Twinkle in our classes and I think there's Twinkle Jain in your class whereas she should be in mine."

Mrs Renu took me to her class and told me to come there everyday. I didn't really talk to anyone the first day but when the final bell rang, we all ran to the school door to look for our parents. I felt very happy when I reached home, I felt safe. When I saw mom, it made my day.

I won't ever forget this day, how I cried for mom and my house.
