Walking to School

This morning I had to go into town to meet a friend,
and I left early because you never know how long it will take to catch the bus.
I saw two of the girls up ahead on the road, but I also knew that they were running kind of late for school so I didn't call to them.
However, about 5 minutes later, they saw me.
They stopped, waited, and took my hands.
I was walking to Kothanur, and they were walking to Kothanur,
and we did so hand-in-hand.
Soon we came upon the rest of the 6th and 7th standard girls,
and I walked with them all the way to school.
I had a great day shopping, but this short walk
was probably the highlight of my day
and is something I will remember forever.
