Ksyusha didn’t want to go to school, she didn’t understand why the other children were happy about the approaching September. After all, you have to walk in a terrible prickly dress, sit at your desk for half a day …

No, she didn't really understand the joy of her peers.

But it's one thing not to agree and not understand this among friends, it's another to show your true desires to adults. Ksyusha, to her regret, saw that her unwillingness to go to school, and even more so, open rejection, deeply upset her grandmother.

She loved her grandmother and did not want to upset her, so she quickly learned in a cheerful voice, to the stupid question of adults: "Do you want to go to school?" And then, it is joyful to add that the form is already there and the notebooks are ready …

At the same time, each time, she looked sideways at her grandmother and sighed with relief, seeing how her grandmother proudly straightened her shoulders, saying with all her appearance, they say, you see what a conscientious granddaughter I have.

In the evening, August 31, after the "joyful" gathering, grandmother, putting Ksyusha to bed, said in the voice of a conspirator: "Tomorrow you will become a schoolgirl" …

This phrase contained everything - love, pride and joy for her granddaughter and Ksyusha hugged her grandmother in a fit, quietly rejoicing in herself that the grandmother did not know the truth.

Silence fell long ago in the apartment, and Ksyusha kept looking at the lantern that shone in her window and thought about her childish thoughts about her life, about her grandmother, about what was and what will be, and then she sighed sharply, throwing everything out of her head, and made a decision for myself - I will learn to love this school, because I learned to play with adults in their games …

And now to sleep…. Sleep…
