joining at Girls high school

At last I passed my fifth standard. Now I had to join sixth standard. My second sister was studying in girls high school which was very near to our house.By the time I was joined in that school , she came to SSLC.Our building was oppsite to their building. Head mistress room, teachers room also were there only. In our building ,only sixth and seveth standard classes were conducted. First day I joined there were many students. Some of them were failed students. But they were not guilty that they did not go to higher class. They were arrogant and felt as if they were seniors and we juniors. I took new scalewhich was twelve inches to the class along with my books. With in one hour it was missing. I wept and asked every one. No one saw it. There was one such long scale but on it the name of one of the girls was written. On my scale I had not written my name. So Icould not claim it. I came home weeping but my parents did not scold me for losing it. One of our classmates gave it back to me after few my months after I became her friend. She admitted she had taken it and immediately wrote her name. But now she felt guilty for having stolen friends scale. So she returned it voluntarily.

To admit our faults we should have strength of character and she had it. She knew the value of friendship.
