55 words or less : The Sisters

In 55 words or less on October 18, 2009 at 18:47

She was a terror in school. And now he was in her house.

Why on earth would his dad choose Sister Alfonsa to take care of him?

He hated when the Sisters at the dining table pulled his cheeks.

Something made him smile.

“Almond cookies” read the label on the jar in front of him.

P.S: This is with love to all the Sisters of St Joseph school Rihand Nagar. Thank you for the lovely cookies 🙂

  1. That’s sweet!
    But did any of them actually baby sit you??? 🙂

  4. Cute and touching. We might curse our teachers while we’re still in school but ’tis only when we’re out in the big, bad world that their teachings come back to us and we realise what major roles they’ve played in shaping us what we’re now.

    You might not remember anything else but you do remember that one act of love and kindness- the cookies. 🙂

    When I was playschool, about 2 and a half years old and younger than all other kids, my teacher would always give me an extra orange cream biscuit if I beat the rest of them in completing my work on time. Needless to say, I always DID beat em! 😀

    Sigh!

    If only someone would start giving out exra biscuits for submitting the assignments on time… Lol! 😛

  12. hello buddy,

    I guess you contacted my friend Mithila…here’s my 55 words story, thought u might like it…i liked your Deep Love story very much…cheers!

    The Sky-diver

    Krishnanshu, the renowned skydiver was attempting a remarkable fifteen thousand square feet high jump in memory of his late wife and daughter whom he loved so much. An unfortunate car accident took them away from his life forever. As the plane reached the altitude he came onboard and jumped, but this time without a parachute.
