DON- The Beginning!!!

Sunday 25 December 2011

Out there atop the mountain ranges in Alabama lies the city. The beauty of the place was not only bounded with its name, but also in every persons too. There was a school in there, in fact the only school situated over a distance of 200 sq km. A small little place for the little little angels to get ready for the real world to find the depth  of becoming a human being, and they all jumps curiously into that depth, for no reasons.
 There were a lot of children studying in that school. The teachers were trained from the oxicity university of excellence to guide the children of heaven to perfection. The happiness was present in every faces seen there. Some dreamt for college while some dreamt of following the legacy of Shahrukh khan & Sachin Tendulkar. But things were different with a young boy from 2nd standard. He dreamt of holding a lighted cigarette in his left hand and a loaded pistol in his right one. The teachers compelled him to study multiplication table and he created a multiplication table on his own. He always wanted to smell the smoke coming from the cuban cigar iced between his father's fingers. But the father's happiness was in never letting him do that. While his mother found happiness in clapping her hands after gifting him a cuban cigar on his 4th birthday.
His teachers believed one day they could throw him out of the school, and they all dreamt for that day, anxiously. That day they decided to catch him for not doing the homework. He was asked to take out his book along with others. But he never really had one. The teacher was already scratching her nails to pierce on his ears. The boy smiled and said, my book is missing. The teacher's happiness for those words were present in her eyes. But unfortunately, all of the students books were also missing. The teacher was left with no evidence but still she entered his name on the 'most notorious' list of the school. The only name appeared on it, don!
The second standard exams were on its way and everyone were so sure of showing the way out of the school after it. Except the fact that, Don already knew that the battle was on.
The exams were placed one after the other. And every students started studying according to it. But not the don, he never wanted to study for he was so sure of his destiny. One day, he was sitting in the lovely shades of a huge tree, which was busy all the time wresting with the wind. A girl was walking towards the tree and she too started enjoying the shades. She opened her text books and threw her warm eyes on Don, sitting next to her. He was busy watching the birds crying, but there was some innocence in his eyes. And the girl fell for it. She walked to him and offered to help him with the studies. He wanted to kick on her stomach. But then he would definitely be thrown out of the school very soon. So he smiled at her. He chased her eyes and entered her heart to teach her about the unhappiness, which was ruining her childhood. She wanted to close her text books and sit next to him. But the exams worried her much than the love spreading from her heart. And don went on fishing, with being the only fisher in the pond.
The school started and the freshness of the day was loosing slowly in the first period itself. And then the second was dropping eyes to a world of boredom. And then the break came. They met again on the lap of the tree. This time don noticed the head of the barbie doll jumped outside from her bag. Whenever he saw a barbie doll, a smile used to come in his face, which was so sure of what he is going to do next. Next moment, the girl witnessed her barbie doll fell on ground raped and organs teared into pieces. Her face changed and she ran to the teachers, crying. She explained for what happened with her barbie doll in the presence of Don. When she said don, the teachers went happy and excused from their work to prepare for the incident. This time don was really caught. He was taken to the staff room immediately and they fired hard at him. He stood there, like in a picture, not moving, and sometimes smiling at them.
The principal was in busy next room, and the teachers had to wait for her to take the appropriate actions. Every teacher proposed their own idea for punishing him heavily and throwing him out. The bell rang for the third period, and unhappily the teachers left to take classes leaving the rest to the principal. But the principal was busy at that moment.
After some time, the principal arrived and questioned him for what he had done. She showed him the papers shes gonna sign for throwing him out of the school. This time don talked, Are you gonna throw me out of the school for tearing a barbie doll?? A barbie doll brought in school. Wasn't i just obeying the rules of the wisdom of this school? My color pencils aren't wet yet and a barbie doll is gonna kill my 2nd standard life?
The principal was shocked and still couldn't feel the depth of the smile coming out of his face. She left him doing nothing, but promising him those papers after the exams. Before leaving, he asked her, pointing to a heap of books, Does that goes to my class?? Can i go with it?? I'm kind of lost here not knowing my own class. She refused to look at his face again. Don walked out, like a free man, out of the jail, with a heap of books on his hand and he was in no mood to sit in a boring class and walked towards that tree. The tree was still wresting with the wind. They have been fighting since they have known each other. The longest war ever happened in this earth. "Still happening", that really came out in don's voice. He heard the bell ranging and he felt somebody is walking towards him. It was that barbie girl. She stopped when she saw him. The don was smiling. She was surprised seeing him there. But was that surprise for real.? She was smiling back at him. She walked close to him. After throwing the last stone into the woods, don looked at her and pointed his finger towards the heap of books placed there, and said, 'Now you can start teaching me!'
He took out the question papers hidden in the books and showed it to her. She took them and went through the questions of exam. She hugged him from his front and said, my name is Ayesha! She walked back and asked, the plan was to write the questions into a paper right? But this seems to be a printed one!
My hand is allergic to the dirt coming out of the pencils! What do you think, if I'm good enough to write all these questions in papers, would i be standing here with you? This is why our principal has brought that photocopier machine there. To take photo copy of papers.
You don't mind sharing the first rank with me, do you? Although you can take the credit for teaching me for the first rank among others. She smiled and said, only if you are getting me a new barbie doll.
"Ab mujhe koi nahi rok sakta...."
