SCENE 1
In one peaceful classroom, 2 boys sit next to each other. One is quite small, the other one is big, probably 3 times bigger than the small boy. Despite their differences in size, they are pretty much alike. And boy, they are very close, always helping each other; just like brothers.
One day, during Additional Mathematics class (saje je wat subject add. math… my fav subject! Hua3~), the teacher gives her students their test papers, taken 2 weeks before, and of course, the marks.
The little boy gets a B for that particular paper. Well~ not bad! But he promises himself he will try harder, struggle to get an A for the upcoming tests.
However, the big boy gets a D. He is not satisfied with what he gets because he was very determined to get an A, or at least a B, when he sat for that paper. He is mad! Now, knowing that the little boy next to him gets a B, makes him even madder! He is now a raging bull, ready to knock the little boy down whenever he gets the chance.
Driven by his furious mind, he asked the teacher to recheck the little boy’s paper. He thinks the teacher must have wrongly ticked the little boy’s paper. “The little boy must have done more mistakes then that, teacher. The little boy is the one who should get a D, not me! I am such a high spirited person! I am the one who should get a B, or even an A.”
Why?? Why is this happening?? Why can’t the big boy just be happy for his friend who gets the higher marks?? Why can’t the big boy study harder, struggle more, like the little boy, to get a better mark?? Why can't the big boy be more like the little boy?? Or maybe even better than the little boy?? Don’t you think the big boy is such a big bully?? Does he deserve to be called friend??
"Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of the Daybreak; From the evil of that which He created; From the evil of the darkness when it is intense; And from the evil of malignant witchcraft; And from the evil of the envier when he envieth."
