Oh no!! My brother was lost and found!!

The sun was shining brightly. I was listening to my music player. My mom was getting ready to go to some office party of hers. She told me to take my 5 year old brother to the baby play ground next to my flat. Soon after, my mom said bye and she was gone At the playground, I saw my friend Sallyman. We shared a Hi and shook hands. We sat down in a nearby bench and started talking about school issues, chats, girls and school fights.I love chats, it is like gossip. Just so realistic. I heard the loud cries of joy from the kids in the playground. They were happy, overjoyed and jumping in joy. It made me think of my childhood life.  While I was talking to Sallyman, 5 years Tom did not want to play with the baby kids. He wanted to explore the neighbourhood. When it was time to go home, I called on Tom. He did not respond. I said "Banana Split". It is his favorite word and food. Still he did not run to me or jump and laugh. I was anxious for a moment. Hot blood started running t...

Snatch thief!

It was a problem that I am still facing. The Police are still alive, energetic to find my boss's lair. These fat men kept on trailing us. So many people to steal from and more cops to run away from. What a mess?!! It is the 21st Century and I am a great robber. After stealing an iPhone from an old lady, I was back to the lair. That was the greatest mistake. My boss is really a mad person. He creates stuff and new inventions. A secret agent comes out of nowhere and destroys the invention and my boss curses the agent. It goes on like this. Booshin Mart, the mad scientist, has this dream to control Britain. Sadly, that never could happen. This maniac has a crooked nose, today called me. He told in a menacing way, "I'd love to take the hand bag of this fair queen. Wouldn't I? Would you go on a mission to steal it?" I gasped. My jaws dropped. "Me..?" My voice croaked in terror. I blinked as I thought of the crocodiles drooling at the sight of me. Odd!! A ...

From foes to friends

He was crying again, not because of his injury but his bully Lakshita. An notorious girl she was, but only Primary 2. I sighed! Vaishnav was complaining again about her and I could not do anything to stop a P2 girl even though I am a P5!! Hearing his moarning, I got disturbed a lot and could not watch TV anymore. I switched it off and tried to console him. I offered to play soccer, or skater boy, or a pillow fighting game. After a game, Vaishnav became calm and we started to concentrate on our school work. Mom and Dad came back from work and Vaishnav complained about Lakshita and the bully incident. "I will tell Mr.Bala, like I did before when I was bullied", I suggested". "No! you won't! so you go and do your school work before its deadline", stern instruction came over. I argued for a while, and then my family came to an fruitful agreement. The next day, when Vaishnav came back home, he was happily singing his favorite tune. I was not sure what was happ...

The fight

"Mmmmmm!!!!" I was thinking loud, the "mee goreng" in the food center is very tasty! Me and my friend were at the biggest food center in Singapore proudly presented by Hak Yo Shop, Chop Shop and Mee Go Rup. The taste of my food was so good that I was going on exaggerating about it to my friend. He got bored I guess. While we were eating, we heard two men fighting over each other. Many people were looking at the two people. "They were attracting a crowd! How irresponsible?!!" I thought in disgust! I went in front to get a closer look. My friend followed suit. Two young ladies were terrified, clutching each other. A strong, burly looking man with a scar on his hand was looking sharply at another man. If looks could kill, the man could have been dead by now! The scar man's pony tail was dangling dangerously. The other guy was smiling, menacingly holding four chopsticks two at each hand. This man having a torn shirt and ragged shorts was looking like a c...

Chinese New Year Holiday

I went to Sentosa during my holiday. Inside Sentosa, it felt like heaven. I went to the 'the biggest aquarium'. there were tiny fishes, medium sized fishes, big fishes, puffer fish, tube fishes, sea horse, mantle rays, giant sharks etc., If you ask me, I would say I felt that I was in the sea itself.  I started this journey in the longest queue I saw. I went to Mount Faber to go to the "Jewel Box". The trip in the cable car was 10 minutes if I am not wrong. I did get to see the Virgo cruise when I went in the cable car as the cable car was covered with glass. The lunar new year decorations were awesome!!!. Snakes here, Snakes there, Snakes everywhere.! First we went to the cable car museum. Then we went to the tiger lookout or whatever its name was. Then we went to one more museum. They showed a lot of ship merchants and goods from Thailand, India, Srilanka and many others. At last we saw a show about a man from China who brought goods to interact with the other cou...

The frog

It was late night. I could not sleep as the unusual frog noise kept bugging my ears. I kept tossing and turning in my bed. Finally I slept. "Rrring!" My clock rang for the twentieth time. I sighed. I rolled in the bed before falling on the ground,I sighed again. I groggily looked at the clock. "Oh my gosh!! It is 7:35am. I will be late for bus". I ran down the stairs in my house right before falling and rolling down the the ground with a sickening thud. I ran to the toilet just before tripping over my brother's toy. I stood up and got in the toilet, brushed and bathed. I put on my dress (in the wrong way) and went to school. "Ding Dong!!" The school bell bellowed like two bulls. Even after covering my ears, I could hear them. I groaned when i ran to the class, on the way I fell. Where? Right in 'mud poop'. The teens call it 'mud poop' as it looked like the mud has pooped. Those teens in my school are crazy. I cleaned myself before an...

Life Saver

I looked around. "Help!!!" The words echoed in my brain. I found some one splashing in the water. I swam faster to find who was it in curiosity.  It was an young plump boy. The swelling around his waist line was outrageous. He wore a speedo undergarment with blue trunks. His face showed signs of frustration, perspiration and anxiety. His white hands swayed in the air trying to find for help and support. I jumped out of the pool and grabbed the life buoy which was hung on the wall by a hook. I flung it to him and luckily he got hold of it and came out. His mother who was coming running for him, thanked me and some one who were trying to help him profusely before they went back home.It turned out that he had been playing near the pool and fell into the pool.  I, the captain of a swimming team, was too tired and after doing such a great deed. Finally found an excuse for me and my team from exercising.

Stage fright

I knew it. I knew that the speech would be bad. I knew stage fright would occur. I knew the mayor’s wife would not be as brave as her husband. I knew it all along. But what happened after that I never expected!              I was putting my best outfit for the speech. The mayor’s wife was giving the answers to all our problems. Our small city is suffering millions and millions of problems including the mayor’s illness. “Here comes Miss Elegenda!”. The audience gave a standing ovation upon hearing the name. Out came the “Princess”. The face was so beautiful, the skin was so smooth and the hair was so long and the eyes were flustering with shyness. She had a vivid personality. My eyes were glued to her beauty, I was agape with disbelief.              “Nice?” I heard a boy’s voice. My head turned in curiosity. It was the Colin Creevy. My school mate. “Ya!” I repli...

Fear of being alone

I always hated it. The dark feeling that I always hate kept on coming when I am alone.  It all started when I heard a story…..            Rain pattered on the window sill as I looked wearily at my brother, Pranav, as he listened to his I-pod. I went to him and asked him to tell me a story. He sneered at me in an evil kind of way. He started this very scary story. Once upon a time, there was a man eating Cannibal. He looks for small boys and chops them to pieces and eats them with deserts made by blood. He said he might appear anywhere and cut even me into small pieces. I shuddered at the thought of being chopped. I kept thinking about this story the whole day.             I could not sleep well that night. The Cannibal man kept on coming in my dreams, chopping my head, my hands, my legs and happily laughing while doing so. He even laughed out loud that the whole world can hear.            ...
