CHAPTER: TWO

          

            Behind her Smile 

Hello baby. Said the stepfather. I too said, "Yes apa anything to say?"He just nodded his head and said nothing. He was a young guy with kind hearted.

He did everything for us. He was younger than my mom but he loves and cares my mom like my father.

"Though my father expired but this young guy is more than my father", Sonam thought.

Again after her mother's remarriage, they had a happy life.

She went to school as usual and did her work like before. She studied day and night to fulfill her desire. 

"Mom, l am so sorry to tell you about the stepfather, he was not what l expected" Sonam said.

"Yes, he is same like your father and he promised me to take care of you as his own daughter" Mom replied.

Sonam still had a happy life. She was a girl of duty not a girl of beauty.

It was almost three years and she did class x exam. 

Sonam had grown up and became a beautiful girl. She always stayed home

and do household chores.

Where as her mom and stepfather went to work. They two work together as a caretaker and a night guard. 

All of a sudden there was some behavior changes, Aku what's wrong with you?,Sonam said.

"Nothing," Aku nodded.

Slowly the love and happiness vanished.

Aku started drinking alcohol. Everytime he quarrelled with mom without any reason.

I could see my mom suffering alot. I couldn't bear her pain, so l asked, what happened mom?

She looked straight to my eyes and tear rolled down her cheek.

I too cried and told mom to be brave.

"I could see my mom with great pain but she never shared with me", Sonam whispered.

Sonam was a strong girl, she could handle any challenges. She was worried about her mom.

One night, l couldn't see my mom, l asked Aku, "Where is my mom?"

Aku happily said,"Today she went to village". Sonam replied, " will she come today?. "No, she will stay there for a week" Aku said.

She had a mixed thought, "what shall l do?. Shall l sleep here or go to neighbour's house? Or shall l bolt the door and sleep?

Suddenly he whispered, "You should not go to neighbour's house. You sleep here only.trust me"

Aku said, " l am also going for night duty, please closed the door and sleep".

I took a deep breath and chanted "OM MANI PADMA HONG".

"I couldn't sleep, l wondered why mom went to village without informing me" These thoughts lingered in my mind.

It was 12 midnight, l still couldnt sleep. 

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

I was shivering and couldn't go to open the door.

The door was still knocking and l was in deliema, weather to open or not.

He knocked for nearly an hour and started shouting," Sonam open the door".

I made myself bold, took a deep breath and went to open the door.

BEHIND HER SMILE

CHAPTER: ONE

Pain Behind her  Smile

"Sonam... you must go to school now". Said mom. "Ok mom, l am ready to go to school," said the daughter. As they had  conversation  about  the school, they started to make ready for school. Sonam was a brilliant, intelligent, humble and active  person. She was the topper in every activities in the school.

She does everything  in the school  as well as  at home. All the teachers  in the school  love and admire  her personality.Not only in the school but in her village too.

Every parents insisted their  children  to  follow   example  of Sonam.

Sonam had a big dream  to  become  a fruitful citizen  of Bhutan. 

She is  always  open and kind  enough to help everyone . 

The days passed and she graduated  from her primary  school.

It was in the year 1995,her graduation  from  the  primary school. 

Her life went as expected  but suddenly  due to ill luck, her father expired.

"What a bad luck and bad  situation " Sonam said.  She thought and made herself  stronger to face the challenges.

That time she was in seventh grade, her father expired  and only mother was there  to handle all the challenges.

"OM MANI PADMA HONG" every time she chanted. She works harder and her Studies went as before, always  topper.

Her mom really had a tough time.

Her mom works as a caretaker and she is the only daughter. 

The days, months and years passed, her mom had an affairs with a young guy.

"Mom, why you are doing like this?"Sonam said to  her mom. "Everything  depends  upon  faith,nothing is possible  without  faith", mom replied. 

She couldnt do anything  to  mom.

Instead  she Studies  day and night  to fulfill her desire.

Day by day, mom got more attachment with the young guy and finally  she married  with the young  guy.

My mom and the young guy love and care each other like anything.

I thought wow he is a goodman. But said nothing. 

He too cares me like his  own daughter.

The only new is tracing  more on sounds  rather than on  letter names.
Continuous  formative  assessment  means the task to assess  students  progress through  taking children  to meet atleast  at meeting level.
CFA is very much align with 21st century  skills. Through this CFA, the child   will be motivated.
