THE WITCH 

“Good morning students”, said Miss Naina in a melodious voice. She was
Library teacher. “Good morning miss”, said the students of class VIII 
excitedly. 

They chose their books and sat quietly to read. Parnella and Pansy sat
down with a book titled ‘The Witch'. They started discussing. 

“Pansy, do witches really exist”, Parnella asked. “Ummm.... I am not
very sure but they might not”, said Pansy. “Anyways lets finish this 
book”, said Parnella. 

At the end of the book there was a note on witches. It said it was true,
that witches exist. And do you know who was the author of the book the 
famous Roald Dalph. 

Now this made Parnella confirmed about the existence of a witch. The
book said that a real witch had many characteristic some of them being 
boldness, blue tongue, a smiling face, a kind looking remember a women 
and not a man for the book said that a witch is always a women and many 
other things. 

These are left such a mark on Parnella and Pansy's mind that they began
matching all these characteristics with their teachers for the book 
said ‘it might be your teacher'. Unfortunately they found one. She was 
Mrs. Sahay, their chemistry teacher. On seeing her hair they began to 
feel as if she wore a wig. They began finding her kind face mysterious 
and her tongue and teeth blue. They decided to spy her. So the very 
next day in the evening they went to the Mrs. Sahay's house and peeped 
through her window they her doing something with her chair. Actually 
she was going to comb her hair and was oiling her hair to make it 
smooth and shining. “Look! Now she will remove her hair ...I mean the 
wig... (Giggles) just imagine how she will look without hair”. To their 
great surprise she just combed and tied her hair. 

“Never mind!”, said Parnella. “I am sure we are going to find some
clue... I am sure she is a witch”. Next they saw her taking out an 
old-fashioned fountain pen. (Remember an old-fashioned fountain pen 
means a pen that is dipped into an inkpot and then used). “See, she is 
using an old fashioned fountain pen. Remember the book said that all 
the witches use an old fashioned fountain pen. I am sure she is going 
to use her split...I mean her blue split as ink.” Said Pancy excitedly. 
But to their great surprise Mrs. Sahay took out an inkpot and dipped 
her pen and started writing. “O god! She is too clever. She knows 
someone is watching her.” Said Parnella worrying. Just then an 
unfortunate thing happened. Mrs. Sahay stood up, turned around and saw 
the girls who were busy spying her. The girls turned pale. Mrs. Sahay 
called them inside her house. “So, what were you both doing outside my 
house, spying, I think”, said Mrs. Sahay angrily.” “Now not at all... 
Madam... why... should we spy on you?” answered Pansy trying to be calm 
and quiet. “So, what were you doing then?” “Nothing madam...no... 
thing” answered Pansy firmly. When Pansy was busy satisfying her 
teacher Parnella was thinking something else. At last when Mrs. Sahay 
asked the reason from her. She answered...rather asked” mam do you were 
a wig” 

“What?!?” asked Mrs. Sahay angrily and surprised. 

“Mam, why do you use an old fashioned fountain pen instead of all new
pens available in the market” 

“What do you mean by this. Now this proves that you were spying and that
you are telling lies pansy” Mrs. Sahay looked crossed. 

“Mam please answer me,” Parnella asked as if under spell. 

“I don't know why you were spying but I will surely satisfy you
Parnella. I don't wear a wig and I use an old fashioned fountain pen 
because it was gifted by my old fashioned father whom I love and so by 
using this pen I remember all golden moments that I spent with him. I 
think this is enough to satisfy you. And now for your punishment you 
have to write 100 times your chemistry equations and submit it on 
Monday.” 

“But mam” pansy tried to argue. 

“200 times” Mrs. Sahay angrily replied. 

“Thank you mam...” said pansy and dragged Parnella out. 

“ ...And thank you too my friend. Because of you we are going to spend
our weekend completing my chemistry equations” pansy said to Parnella 
angrily 

“But Pan don't you think she acted really ‘witchish' by giving such
harsh punishment. I still believe Mrs. Sahay to be a witch. In fact I 
am sure of it.” Parnella said. 

“Oh please! Have mercy on me my dear friend. She did what a human should
do and I really believe she is a woman .now I am going home. I have to 
write 200 chemistry equation. So goodbye and best of luck”. Pansy said 
and ran back to her house. 

MEANWHILE IN MRS.SAHAY'S HOUSE MRS. SAHAY went before the mirror,
removed her wig with a cruel smile and said “children are getting 
smarter now. I have to find out how those two came to know about me. 
Perhaps chemistry equations will act as a brain washer for them.
