Thursday School

(after RoaWDahl)

The next day was Thursday. Something terrible happened on that Thursday morning after my father had left me at the school gate. We were having our first lesson with a teacher called Captain Lancaster. He had carrot-colored hair and a fiery temper. He had been a captain in the army during the war against Hitler and that was why he still called himself Captain Lancaster instead of just plain Mister. We were all terrified of him. He used lo sit at his desk watching us, searching for trouble. He gave us a lot of multiplication sums to work out in our exercise books. My friend Sidney Morgan, silting next to me, covered his mouth with his hand and whispered softly to me: "What arc eight nines?" "Seventy two", I whispered back.

Captain Lancaster looked up and shouted: "You. stand up!" "Me, sir?", I said. "Yes, you, you little idiot! You were talking! What were you saying?" I kept silent. "Please, sir", Sidney said. "It was my fault. I asked him a question". "And what exactly did you ask him?" the teacher said, speaking more quietly now and more dangerously. "I asked him what arc eight nines", Sidney said. "And I suppose you answered him?" "Yes, sir", I said. "So you were cheating!" he said, "both of you come up here!" As I walked towards the desk I knew exactly what was going to happen. I had seen it happen to others many times but up until now, it had never happened to me. Captain Lancaster look a long and very thin cane from the top of the shelf. "You first", lie said, "hold out your left hand". It was almost impossible to believe that this man was about to injure me physically. The long white cane went up high in the air and came down on my hand with a crack and about two seconds later I felt the burning pain. I managed not to cry out loud but I couldn't keep the tears from pouring down my checks. Then I heard another crack and I knew that poor Sidney had just got it as well.

When I got home from school that afternoon, my father immediately saw my swollen hand. "What's happened to your hand?" "It's nothing!" I answered. "Was it Captain Lancaster?" he cried. I told him everything. His face became whiter and whiter. "I'll kill him", he promised taking his Jacket from the peg on the wall and putting it on. "No, Dad. forget it, it won't do any good!" "I've got to" he said. "I'll bet they did it to you when you were at school", I said. "Of course they did". "And I bet your Dad didn't go risking to kill the teacher who did it". "No, Danny, he didn't", lie said softly. I helped him off with his jacket and hung it back on the peg. We never mentioned the subject again but just talked and talked and talked.
