    A Journey to Unicorn Island
                Once upon a time, there was a girl named, Naina, who loved to read books. Her hobby was to solve mysteries. As I said, she loved to read and all she wanted was to be left alone in her room with her friends i.e., books. She gave her books certain names. Her favourite person was her grandfather. She was the star in his eyes. She loved him dearly. Half of the book on her bookshelf were a gift from him. He gifted a books to her which was about mysteries and they all were actually weird. She could not understand them, but she finally read it. Even though the book mentioned they were different, they were all actually linked together. There was a map probably, a key to a treasure ? the treasure of the Unicorn Island. A place on earth where everything was made of cotton candy, chocolate cake, strawberries and everything sweet. Naina followed the directions. It was actually a journey full of suspense. She trembled while crossing the paths. ?X? was marked on the spot but there was a huge door with a ?unicorn? on it. She entered with excitement. It was a surprise birthday party, all was planned by her grandfather for her 16th birthday. It was all she dreamt of, she did not anticipate for all that to happen. She was overwhelmed. From that day, her expectations for the mysteries were increased.

    Truth Always Pays
                It is true ? truth always pays. Manav always believed this but an incident made him question his belief. The summer vacation was over and the new session in the school had just started. Being a new boy, Manav had not made many friends, except Rishi. Though Rishi was average in his studies, he was everything that Manav wished in a friend ? helping, caring, accessible, funny and popular. One day, during the games period, everyone was playing outside. Manav was a part of the school debate team and had gone to the curriculum cell for some work. Since the games period was getting over, he decided to return directly to the classroom. On entering the classroom, he saw Rishi bent over the teacher?s table. On seeing Manav, Rishi quickly moved from there. Manav decided to talk to Rishi later, when the teacher sat down, there was a loud chirping sound. The teacher jumped up and looked around. No one knew what had happened. When the teacher sat again, the same thing happened. Manav understood that it was Rishi?s mischief. He went up to the teacher and told her the whole thing. The teacher however did not believe Manav and started accusing him of being a part of it. She took him to the Principal?s office. The Principal got angry and warned him that such behaviour would not be tolerated in the school and that he would be suspended if he did anything like again. That day Manav felt upset. He had fallen in trouble for speaking the truth. After two days, the Principal called him. He told him how Rishi had come to his office and owned up to his mistake. Manav was happy and realised that in the long run, it is always better to speak the truth.
