Not Again! Chapter 3: Inspiration.
After Mr. Ratburn finished taking attendance, Binky storms into the room. Binky chest tightens up because the glare Mr. Ratburn giving him reminds him of his frightening nightmare.
"Leave you Civil War paper on my desk." Mr. Ratburn commands.
Binky snap out of the trance the glare put him into. He removes the half-writen Civil War paper from his backpack. Then he quickly takes his seat.
The rest of the day felt like eternity because Binky couldn't clear his mind of the horrible nightmare he had. At last school came to an end for the day. Everyone but Binky was celebrating because it was Friday.
Binky frowns at the thought of not having any fun since he grounded. Binky walks over to the family car and made a sigh when he sat down.
"Rough day, Sweetie?" Mrs. Barnes asks
"It's not the day that bad." Binky explains, "It's that my weekend will be long and boring."
Mrs Barnes says in a comforting tone, "I'm sure you will have a blast being tutor by Ms. Ratika."
"Yeah, right." Binky softly mumbles.
The doorbell rang at the Ratika residence. The door opens and Ms. Ratika greets Binky and his mother. Binky is surprise by all the questions Ms. Ratika is asking him about school.
Binky doubtfully says, "How is that information even going to help me?"
"I guess you will have to see" Ms. Ratika vaguely states.
Binky experience from the next few days made him understand what Ms. Ratika was referring to. All the questions were relating to his learning- style.
Before Binky knew it, he was no longer grounded. But to more of a surprise his grades on tests improved drastically and he no longer had the horrible feeling of failing third grade.
All the students at Lakewood Elementary are excited because there was only one week left of school before summer vacation.
"This summer is going to be the greatest!" Muffy says.
"Yeah" Buster happily says, "I'm going to visit my Dad again."
Arthur sadly sighs
"Ah! Cheer up. Arthur." Francine sarcastically says, "I'm sure you will find something interesting to do."
"Settle down" Mr. Ratburns says.
Silence fills the classroom then Mr. Ratburn continued to lecture until the final bell rang.
"Remember you have a spelling test tomorrow!" Mr. Ratburn says as he dismisses the class. Then he pulls Binky aside and says, "There a matter I wish to address with you in Mr. Haney office."
To Be Continued.
