‘Ma’am, please give me one last chance. I promise I will be careful with my

                    books.’

                    Mrs Jaya said, ‘Go home and check your bookshelf. I am sure your notebook
                    would have come back there. Take today’s test in your rough notebook.

                    Remember, don’t ever tear pages from your books or keep them dirty.’ Harish
                    had learnt his lesson.

                    Harish was surprised when he reached home. The English notebook was
                    right there on the shelf. How did he miss it in the morning? Had Mrs Jaya’s

                    dream come true?
