The Magical Pencil

Little Atharv was walking down the street wearing his murky clothes. He loved to eat and was still eating, scrunch­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­-scrunch-scrunch crunch-crunch-crunch. He hurt his leg so he inched along the street. He was ravenous and was feeling undefeated.

It was the fall season in the United States of America. It was a cold evening when Atharv was coming home from school. There were rough trees all around with leaves of different colors. There was an aromatic smell of roses from a nearby yard.

Atharv was a smart boy who was good at everything. The only thing he disliked was doing his homework. The sight of homework frightened him. He had always wished to be able to complete his homework magically. As night approached, Atharv had his favorite dumplings for supper and soon fell asleep. He soon had a dream that he had a magical pencil that could complete all his homework magically. There was no end to his happiness. His life smoothened only until this day when his magical pencil had stopped working.

Soon he began thinking of the ways by which he could get the power of his magical pencil back. His happiness had no bounds when he found a solution to his problem. Atharv thought of making a model of the pencil and putting supernatural powers into it as he had always seen in movies. Soon the model was ready. Feeling very pleased with himself he tried to put magical power which was impossible for a normal human being. As he was trying out different ways to make it work, a vase on his bedside broke along with his dream. That was the end of his happiness.

Atharv sat at his bedside thinking if he could put in so much labor and hard work into making a magical pencil then he could also put that labor into doing his homework. He soon realized he needed no magical pencil to complete his work. He was capable of doing everything on his own.

Winter Memories

It was the first month of the year in Switzerland. The weather was below freezing. The whole range of mountains was snowy.  The temperature was -4 degrees. Everybody was in their houses covered up in the blankets but the blankets were not giving enough warmth. Pine tree branches were covered with frost and all the coniferous trees were covered with snow.

Rohit got up in the morning for his routine exercise. This kept him healthy and strong full of energy throughout the day. He always helped his mother and cared for his little brother. He was always accommodating and caring. He loved to listen to stories from his grandparents. He was excited because his cousins were coming to visit them. It was their first time to visit this place of icy weather. He wished that the weather would be supportive during their trip.

They were all preparing for their welcome since morning. His mother cooked a delicious lunch and he prepared the checklist of activities that he would wish to do with his cousins. Suddenly, they saw on television that there was a warning of a cold storm for the next 24 hours. Flights could be diverted and roads could also get blocked.

Rohit and his father decided to leave early for airport pickup. Rohit gave an idea to carry Sodium Chloride chemical which could help to melt snow quickly from roads. He also asked his father to take a big insulated hot water bottle. Fortunately, they reached the airport safely and their cousin’s flight arrived early. His relatives collected their baggage and completed all formalities. While going back home, the roads were blocked with snow in some places. They managed to cross those hurdles with the help of chemicals and hot water which they got along. They were elated to reach home safely and on time.

The weather was harsh for the next 18 to 20 hours. After this Rohit enjoyed a lot with his cousin in all indoor and outdoor playtime. They ate sweet potatoes and fruit cake. They also went for skiing and ice skating. They had the most fun playing snowball fights and made wonderful memories.
