was talking to Karishma at the time. Sonali was

talking about the assignment at the bus stop
yesterday morning. That is when I found out about
it. It was too late to do the assignment myself and
I really wanted to submit my homework on time. So I
copied Tanisha's. She protested but I pleaded with
her and she gave in. This is not her fault at all."

"I see", said Miss Gupta. "Tanisha why don't you go
back to your break? I need to talk to Tania."
Tanisha heaved a sigh of relief and sprinted away.

Miss Gupta continued "Tania the whole point of the
homework was to get you to think creatively.
Turning it in on time is good but worthless if you

just copied it. I would have been disappointed that
you did not get it done on time, but when you mess
up you should be brave enough to face the
consequences. That is what makes you a strong and
good person."
