The Life Of Normal-Taro

"Huh? Why? We're so ready to go to school! We have schedules and stuff, you know? Furthermore, we can't just randomly take a leave of absence without saying nothing to the faculty. So, give us a day or two to at least give our explanations." Thankappan desperately tried to make Lonappan think differently.

"Ah, you don't have to worry about the leave of absence stuff. I've discussed it with the school. You're granted permission to take the leave. You lot are English teachers. No one gives a damn about English teachers. Rather, your fellow teachers rejoice when you take a leave because they just got an extra slot to just push through the syllabus. So, yea… Today's a leave for you guys." Lonappan replied, much to the dismay of the four. They quite enjoyed their time in school, so missing even one was kinda sad for them.

"I never would've thought that you got such an amount of power that the faculty almost immediately agreed with us taking a leave even though we didn't actually come up to them and requested it." Kunjan spoke, slightly curious about his relationship with the school.contemporary romance

"Well, my wife works there, and I'm a prominent WPP member. I'm pretty influential." Lonappan replied, almost flexing his influence on them.

"Hmm… Speaking of your wife, we haven't met her in the school yet. What's up with that?" Kunjan asked.

"You didn't? That's weird. She should be in the high school block teaching social studies." He replied.

"Hmm, makes sense then. These guys aren't in that block and I don't care about people around me. So… What's the occasion? You didn't mention it yet." Taro spoke.

"Damn, I nearly forgot about that! Thanks for reminding me, by the way. So, do you remember me talking about certain consequences that you might have to face for the shit you did?" He asked.

"Not really." Taro replied, after which Lonappan glanced at the other three who didn't seem to remember it as well.

Lonappan sighed. "Well, that's a bummer. Had you known that, I would've let you go scot-free! However, since you don't remember, just work through it and try to remember the conversation we had. Ah, anyway. I hope you got what I'm talking about by now. You're gonna be facing the consequences for your actions that day." He gave out a bright smile as he spoke.

"Hey! How is that fare? We don't even remember why you're reprimanding us! Don't you think we have the right to know as well?" Thankappan protested.

"Hmm, why would that be a problem, huh? I'm just following up on a thing that I said that I will do. It's not my fault that you've been fucking it up every single time that you don't even remember a single thing by now." Lonappan nonchalantly replied, to which none of them could argue against. They really did screw up a lot that they're having a hard time remembering them. It's kinda totally their fault to begin with.

"I'm sorry, but what the hell is happening right now?" John, who was surprised initially and confused currently, asked.

"Well, I guess you can call it an old grudge. Don't worry about it; you won't be involved in this. Instead, Ponnappan will be accompanying you today. That's good, isn't it?" Lonappan smiled. However, John was more or less disappointed. It seemed like rather than putting him aside for the consequence event, he wanted to actively take part in contributing any sorta stuff to it. But, as of then, he could do nothing other than nodding his head in agreement. Although that was the current situation, he promised that some day, he'd actively take part in such events since it is an important friendship bonding moment.

Just as he made that decision, the doorbell to room #306 was rung. When John went to open the door, he saw that it was Ponnappan who came to pick him up. Without further ado, he headed out with the MIB: Snehatheeram's commanding officer, leaving the other four before the terrifying presence of Lonappan.

"So, shall we get going as well?" Lonappan asked as he walked towards the door.

"Wait a minute! How long have you been planning for this day?" Thankappan asked.

Lonappan thought for a while. "Hmm. To be blatantly honest, I forgot about it as well until recently. However, I'd like to believe that me forgetting it is deliberate unlike you douchebags who forgot it by doing a shitload of douchebaggery! So, most of my plans are recently thought out, so there's meant to be flaws in my execution of stuff." He replied as they headed out the door.

The three aliens and Thankappan had their mouths open as they saw the stuff before them. They were in a bingo hall where old people were filled to the brim. "Why are we even here? Hell, is bingo even relevant in this country? I've never heard of a bingo hall in this place… Weird." Thankappan spoke.

"Well, bingo exists here, although that's like a small population's hobby. And the reason you're here… well, it's the punishment that you've gotta endure." Lonappan replied.

"So… What is it gonna be?" He asked. Upon this, Lonappan handed each a bingo card.

"You're gonna be playing bingo with the crowd." Lonappan replied.

"Hmm, how is that a punishment?" Thankappan was confused. He has faint memories of playing bingo with friends back in the day, so he knew that the game was pretty fun. So, he didn't understand why his senior would consider it as a punishment.

"It is not." He replied.

"Then?"

"You know how old people are, right? They might look meek, however they are the ones with the most vigor. And you know, bingo is hella competitive in their circles, so what if someone ruins it for them by calling bingo now and then. Now, imagine it with four people; imagine the people's displeasure. Ah, I'm getting chills!" Lonappan laughed like a maniac upon explaining it.

"Ah, don't you have any original ideas? Sniping ideas isn't good, you know?" Thankappan asked.

"I told you, I had little time. So, I had to take inspiration from certain places." He replied.

"So, what if we reject doing this?" Kunjan got to the main point.

"At least one month in the detention center without any interpersonal communication." Lonappan didn't even flinch as he replied.

"Wait, we won't even get the phone?" Taro asked, caressing the phone that has become the love of his life.

"What do you think?" Lonappan stared towards Taro for quite some time.

"Let's go, boys! We don't have time to lurk around idly…" Taro spoke as he headed towards one bingo table. Since Taro went head first, the others decided to follow suit as well.

That day, the four of them experienced hell. Lonappan intentionally picked a mentally tiring stuff rather than physically tiring one since he knew that the guys were literal stamina monsters. However, their mental strength doesn't seem to be that high. And it worked just the way he wanted it to work! They felt shitty. Not only they had to constantly disrupt the game, they had to face the intense glare that the old people gave out every time they called for a bingo. Initially, the old people around were surprised by the quick bingo call, however the hype subsided when the officials realized that it was a mistake and everything went back to normal for a brief while. However, that's when the madness began. In between every number, one of the four called bingo and disrupted the flow of the game. This action ticked off many, but they were willing to think of it as immature brats trying to play bingo for the first time. Although they were pretty lenient initially, things went absolutely ballistic when they did it continuously for at least fifteen minutes, upon which they had the opportunity to hear some incredibly colorful profanities and death threats. It lasted until the bingo officials forcefully threw them out, which basically was a big relief for them. They were finally free from the clutches of old people and the so-called consequences. They were tired though. Taro recollected that he felt almost the same as the past day when he had to hear Abhirami's tale. The stamina monsters were destroyed internally.

The results of this punishment made Lonappan pretty happy. He never expected this to be such a huge success. He had been thinking of a mental punishment, however was afraid whether it would actually work against them or not. Furthermore, he was reassured when he heard about Taro's tale about him talking to some girl and getting exhausted and learned that it was effective. Now, not only he had a perfect punishment, he also had a contingency plan if Taro's ever gonna go berserk on Planet Earth. With that, he was satisfied with the results, and he took them back home, upon which the lads jumped around thanking the one above for saving them from total destruction. Little did they know that they were yet to fully deal with the consequences.
