"John! You're up, huh?" Taro gave out a really nervous chuckle.
"Why wouldn't I be?" John asked, with a bizarre look on his face. "So, why were you talking about ?" He asked.
"We were not talking about you! There's a student nad John in the second grade. We were talking about how playful he is." Taro spouted out lies as if it was nothing.
"I see. I thought you were talking about . Continue talking then." John said as he walked away.
Once John was at a considerable distance from them, they could finally heave a breath of relief.
"For a person who spoke about how this place is too small, you sure talked loud enough for John to hear." Kunjan spoke.
"Hey! He did not hear it all, did he now? So, don't put the bla on !" Taro cried.
"Whatever, dude! Just don't speak of him when he's ho like this." Kunjan warned.
"I know. I'll keep that in mind." Taro replied.

The school that day was really boring for Taro. He was already engrossed in the magical world of equipnt building that normie stuff like teaching didn't excite anymore.
"You look so bored, you know that?" Abhirami pouted upon seeing Taro's listless expression.
"I know. I'm bored. Yup. Too bored. Ha How are you doing?" He asked.
"I was doing fine in the morning, but your listlessness affected and now I'm bored as well." She replied.
"Is there sothing you wanna do?" Taro asked.
"What do you an?" Abhirami looked kinda confused.
"I an, is there sothing you really wanna do. Like, for real?" Taro asked. However, it was too vague for Abhirami.
"Are you talking about my goals?" Abhirami asked.
"Hmm I guess you can say it that way." Taro nodded his head along.
"Well, well What made you curious about my goals?" She asked.
"Nothing much. I just felt like asking sothing to you and so I did." Taro replied.
"Ha.. I'm gonna talk about my goals before you change the aning of your sentence to anything else." Abhirami sighed. "I'd like to beco an astrologer." She replied.
"The one with the hand signs and stuff?" He asked.
"Shoot! I ant astronor! Or at least, an astrophysicist. I wanna see so stars and shit." Abhirami replied.
"Oh, really? That's a nice wish to have." Taro smiled.
Seeing Taro smile, Abhirami continued speaking about her dreams. "If possible, I'd like to be a rapper, a beatboxer and a professional wrestler." She spoke.
"Hmm, the first two one seem like they might go hand in hand, but the third one seems too random. How co you choose it?" Taro asked.
"Well, I don't know. Wrestling seems cool. And I can't resist cool stuff. It's just that. I don't think I'll be able to be one, but I can dream, right?" Abhirami laughed.
"One day" Taro spoke before stopping himself.
"Huh?"
"One day, if I invite you to see the stars up close, will you co with ?" He asked.
"Oh, my! Are you asking out on a date right now?" Abhirami chuckled.
"Not really. Okay, don't think of in that scenario. What if so random person invites you to see the stars up close?" He asked.
"I'll politely decline." She answered.
"Why?"
"Do you think I'm crazy or what? Going with so random man just because he promised to show the stars I'm an adult with a fully functional brain, you see? Ain't gonna go with so random man." She scoffed.
"Then what about ?" He asked.
"Hmm?"
"What if that random person was ?" He asked again.
"I wouldn't waste a heart to be with you on that journey." She replied with a bright smile on her face.
"Easy there, tiger. I'm still an unknown person. You don't know a lot of these secrets that I've been hiding. Don't trust so easily." Taro spoke.
"Well, if I can't trust in you, I can't trust in most of the people near . Like, you saved my life multiple tis, dude! I trust you with all my heart." Abhirami continued on with her smile.
"Is that so? But sothing about you still worries ." Taro sighed like an old man.
"Well, we can work it ALL out in due ti." She tried winking, but ultimately failed. So a weird closing of eyes is all that he saw.
"Ha, what a weird girl!" Taro sighed as he saw her move away, while even more teachers glared darts at him.

The day ended up as another 'way too normal' day. It should've been a fun day, but it wasn't. Every ti Taro got to enjoy a 'way too normal' day, he always ended up in an imnse problem the very next day. And hence, rather than enjoying it, he was worried about the next day's shenanigans.
"How was your day?" Thankappan asked once they got in the Holy Land.
"... Way too normal." Taro replied.
"Oh, no!" It wasn't just Thankappan who exclaid, the rest did so as well.
Initially, when such a thing happened, the aliens and Thankappan were quite keen on calling it a re coincidence.
However, as ti went by, the coincidences were too much and the superstition action turned into sothing that the Holy Land inmates fear as the calm before the storm.
And hence, the gang ca into the living room to discuss it.
"So, what do you think it'll be? Any ideas?" Thankappan asked.
"Guys! Maybe this one is a false alarm. It might not happen." Taro replied.
"Nah, man! It'll happen. I guarantee it. The events directly preceding it might even start today who knows?" Thankappan sounded extrely worried.
"Calm down, people! It might not-" Before Taro could say anything more, he was interrupted.
"This is not a discussion about whether it will happen. It's just a simple preparation. Even though nothing happens, we'll feel a bit more secure then." Thankappan explained his side. "So, what are our-" Soone rang the doorbell in the midst.
At first, the lads paid little attention for obvious reasons. But it seed like they had no choice.
"It seems like we have no ti to even build up a decent plan." Thankappan spoke as sweat beads rolled down his forehead.
