Part 11
That night near the place Ravi was living, we find the "Shady Man" waiting for Ravi and when Ravi came.
The shady man asked,"Hey Scar, how was the first day of your school."
To this Ravi just says,"Humans talk a lot."
"Thats the problem with you Scar, you don't know how to live among humans and for this assignment you need to learn a lot, this one is not like your regular Assassination Missions. Anyway we have our people working in the school and they will see that you don't fail in any subject and get the minimum required marks and I have arranged a membership in the library for you, I also chose some books for you to read, as you have 3 days holidays." said the shady man.
Ravi was briefed about his "new" assignment once again and after sometime they both went their separate directions.
The next day Ravi woke up early in the morning and left for the library. He went upto the librarian and said,"My name is Ravi and I have a membership here."
"Ohh Ravi that name sounds familiar.",said the librarian who was a funky teenager and spoke with a strange accent.
"Look, just tell me where are those books OK."Ravi snapped.
"Hey hey what are you getting excited about.",said the funky teen librarian and he checked the library's database and after a few seconds said,"Dude you do have a membership and you have issued 3 books which are kept on table no.5 you can sit there and read them and remember mate no tearing and no writing on the library's books."
Even as teen was completing his sentence Ravi walked away from him and searched for table no.5 and found 3 books one larger than the other lying on top of the table. Ravi picked up the first book which was the thinnest of them all and it's name read-"Everything You Need To Know-Child's Edition.
Ravi started reading the book and in that book he found information on everything from alphabets, poems to good manners etc. he did not see the time and by the time he finished it, it was almost closing time for the library.
The funky teenager came and said,"Hey man everyone left and now its closing time come back tomorrow if you want to still continue reading it." Ravi wanted to just get up and go but he read in the "good manners section" of the book that if someone talks politely with you reply politely, so instead of doing what he was urged to do he smiled back at librarian and said,"I have finished reading it you can put it back where it belongs." and left the place.
The librarian was shocked at the behavior of Ravi because on the same morning Ravi behaved strangely and now he was behaving very "Normally". So he put the book where it belongs and left the library.
