Am a student of Grade 9.

We just had our departure and were eagerly waiting for our school bus to arrive to the campus 2 of our school, which is situated in Chanmari, Naryanganj. The bus would take us to the campus 1, which is situated in Chashara, Narayanganj, from where everyone could proceed for their respective homes.

Students loitered in the open school field, where something caught our attention. By “our” I mean Emily, Rochelle and me. The boys of our class, Aaron, Roger and Neil were absorbed into some boyish talks, among which, Aaron’s voice was so loud that it was being heard from another corner of the field.

মামা/Mama*! My Nokia 1200* is the best mobile phone ever! You know what? The phone has survived the drop test! Even after being thrown from a 5 storied building, the phone operates without any disturbance! Not a single scratch is to be found on the phone! In one line, সেই একটা ফোন!” (An amazing phone)

On my mind: Oh really Aaron? Let’s see if you’re bragging for sure or your claims are true.

“Hey Rochelle! Could you ask Aaron to give away his mobile phone for a bit?” I said in a devilish tone, with a grin on my lips.

Emily eyed me; did she get a hint?

“Oh okay,” Rochelle agreed immediately, unknown to my intentions.

As soon as I secured the phone in my grip, I went literally mad, and threw the phone aimlessly, where it flew in the air and landed straight in between the feet of a junior girl!

The add on:It didn’t land in one piece; however, landed in three pieces.

The three pieces being as :

1)The back cover of the phone
2)The battery of the phone
3)The main body of the phone

Aaron shot me with a look of anxiety. Yeah me: whose relentless laughter was not to be stopped by the Almighty Himself. All of our friends ran to the scene in excitement, where all were still laughing and panting. Aaron reached to his phone and immediately provided it with the necessary first aid and voila! It functioned as usually! 😱😱😱

Guess Aaron’s words turned out to be true!
