Kapitel 6: Smile

People passing by were gossiping,

"Why is this lady creating a drama in school?"

"Does she have no self respect?"

"I think something bad has happened to her, poor lady."

"Something is happening over there, let's go and see."

"No, it is not our business, the staff will clear it."

Nancy engulfed in her crying was unaware of these gossips. She was in her own world, recollecting memories as if a reel of pictures was going in her mind, which resulted in making her cry even more. As she cried she tightened the small fluffy ball in her arms even more.

Kaira was continuosly asking "What happened mom? Why are you crying? Are you in pain?"

Nancy slightly nodded. Then she spoke for the first time since the breakdown "Yes baby, Mom's heart is paining very much."

Still holding onto Kaira.

Kaira then removed Nancy's hands from her shoulder and pulled her forward to face her. She then kept her hand on Nancy's heart.

Kaira: "Is it paining here? Don't worry Kaira will cure mom."

She then start making circles with her hand over Nancy's heart, as if casting a spell.

"Abracadabra, pain pain go away." said Kaira. "See now your pain is gone.". During this time the only thing Kaira didn't notice was Nancy's gaze.

She was looking at Kaira with a lovely gaze as if she was seeing her long lost daughter.

'Get a hold of yourself' thought Nancy 'It is a school'.

"Mommy is fine, now let's go.". As she stood up to go.

Kaira: "But.."

Nancy: "What?"

Kaira : "Registration form"

Nancy : "Oh right!". She then quickly filled the form and submitted the money and completed all processes.

Nancy : "Now let's go."

As they held hands and walked out of school.

Nancy: "Let's wait for Adam. The school is going to be over soon."

Kaira: "Okay, by the way, from when can I start attending school ?"

Nancy : "One week from now."

Kaira was very excited for a new experience.

"Hi" said Adam while coming towards them. He was delighted as Nancy didn't often came to pick him up, but his delighted expression soon changed ugly as he saw Kaira holding his mother's hand.

He was still not over from yesterday's activities.

Nancy took Adam's hand in her other hand.

Nancy : "Today whatever you both want I will cook that."

Adam's mood lit up.

Adam: "I want to eat hamburger."

Nancy: "Okay"

Adam : "Why so generous? Did something good happen?"

Nancy: "Yes, Kaira is admitted in your school."

Adam : "What?". He who wished for it, now even hated the thought of it.

Nancy : "Why? Previously you said that you want her to be in same school as you."

Adam could not help, he just admitted it. Suddenly, he had a idea that he could group up and bully her so that she will leave the school. The thought of it made him smile.
