Midday Break
Midday Break
“Finally, the just ten minutes more till recess!” I thought as my stomach growled loudly. I was looking forward to recess time! I had eaten a pretty light breakfast this morning, and I have an empty stomach which I wanted to fill so badly! As my classroom was on the second floor, I could easily smell the dense aroma of the canteen food. That made me hungrier than I am now!

Almost immediately, I could feel the hot crisp of the prata in my mouth. “The pleasure of having food in your mouth, unbelievable!” I thought to myself. It tasted great.

After eating, my friends and I decided to have a stroll around the school as there was still time to spare. As we walked past the Science lab, I started laughing all of a sudden. I remembered a time, during recess when we walked long the Science lab. On that day, one of our friends, Joseph, out of mischief, decided to play a prank on Lina. As Lina and
