The Treacherous Tutor

It was 15th of June and all of my cousins just got


free from their hectic schedule of studying. Of
them only few cousins were emotionally attached
to me. Those cousins were Jin, Jim and James.
They visited us every year. Along with their visit
there also came the opportunities to adventure
the mysterious and mystifying places. Whenever
we were stumped by any mystifying thing, we
could hardly sleep in curiosity. At night, our
dreams were haunted by petrifying creatures that
we get to glare at in our adventures. John, who is
me, had a father who was scientist. He was a
strict, disciplined, young man who loathed us
when we are kicking around in house. All of my
close cousins were supposed to have arrived in
the evening that day. Their absence was missed
by me the whole year. I could barely wait as I was
very zealous to meet them. And finally the time
had ticked by. I could espy the white speedy train
rushing towards the direction where I had been
waiting along with my mom. With my excitement
going to other level, the train halted. Out came
the cousins for whom I had been desperately
waiting throughout the whole year. We cheerfully
went towards home. During our excursion
towards home, we started gossiping and started
making one another laugh by telling side-splitting
and hilarious jokes. At last we reached home. We
did not even realize how our 30 minutes journey
had ticked away rapidly. As we approached
home, we burst in the house. We all sat on mat
and unpacked the bags. Not only had they
brought useful gadgets but they also had brought
the sweets for all of us. I felt very effervescent for
the upcoming adventures. This excitement did
not last long as they told me that they had come
to live for 10 days. With a snap of fingers, my joy
turned into sadness. Not just that, there was
something else on the line too which was to mess
the holidays. It was that my father was working
on a project which required concentration and no
one to vex him. That’s why he had already hired a
tutor to engage us in studying. Now our holidays
had been a disaster. At first, I was very aggrieved
but my cousins somehow persuaded to be
deferential. From the next day the tutor had
started coming. Every-one liked the tutor except
James who sensed some type of danger
whenever the tutor was around us. The tutor was
quite affectionate toward us. But James did not
want him to show kindness towards them. The
tutor kept on teaching without being harsh
towards James who had been impolite for few
days. After several days, there were some loud
noises from room of John’s father. We scuttled
towards that room to figure out why he was
screaming. As we popped in the room, we
ascertained that the john’s father had lost the
pages of the project which he had been working
on a long time. The pages, he lost, contained the
heart of the project. They were too important to
carry out the project. They had either been stolen
or lost. James suspected the tutor to have stolen
the pages. But no one paid any heed towards
what she said because it was known to everyone
that James loathed the tutor and sensed him to
be dangerous for the family and family members.
Besides that, John’s father was very perturbed
about the papers which he lost. Without having
his hands on the papers, he was impuissant to
persevere the project
