Fun Corner

Read and find out what makes Krish an interesting lad.

The ninth grade Krish was famous among teachers and students. It is be-
cause of two reasons. Firstly, he had good sense of humor which was liked
by everyone. Next, he was known because he seldom submitted his as-
signments on time. Here is one of the accounts of Krish.

The day before, Ms Manandhar asked him to bring the list of new words
that begin with letter ‘K’. Next day, Ms Manandhar reached near him and
asked gently, “Do you have something to show?”
Krish stood up. “Yes, I do.” The class gasped in a surprise.

Ms Manandhar told him, “Come on then.”

He walked to the front of the room, empty handed. He stood there, holes
in his pants, twisting a strand of black hair around his index finger. His
classmates began to whisper amongst themselves.

“I bet he hasn’t brought anything.”

“I’m sure he hasn’t done.”
“He must have something to excuse, I guess.”

Krish kept standing bowing down. A sort of half-smile was on his face.
