The Wimp, The Roach Stars and a MURDER.

It was yet another boring day in college, with nothing much happening around us except for the usual chattering, clackclacking and bakbaking. For some reason I was extremely quiet that day till my friend came rushing into my class telling me she'd spotted a roach and wanted me to catch it. Something is better than nothing, so I went and caught the roach. Now it was my friend the roach and me. Then we saw our real prey walking towards us. Lets call him The Wimp. The wimp always has a happy smile on his face, and a nice guy in general but definitely lives up to his name. He's scared of looking at cockroaches! This was our fun time and I showed him my prisoner and he started running. He pretty much understood that I intended to set the roach on him and so began the chase my friend and I in pursuit of The Wimp. Finally I decided to just wait outside his class, the guy had to enter it at some point of time. By this time the roach was in my friends hand and when I saw the wimp approach the class I decided to hide and in he walked, right on cue into the trap. BOO! said I,the guy was so startled he just lost his balance and fell back hard on a bench. CRACK! It was an astonishingly loud noise. Everybody turned to look at me and I knew it was time I retreated to my own class. Yelling my apologies to the wimp I turned to escape, when came The Wimp's friend and said, "Hey, Show me the cockroach." By this time I'd turned into a meek mouse and was just about to show The Wimp's friend the roach when he took my hand and clasped it real hard. Crack!( This time a mild one, like an egg shell cracking) The next thing I know my hand is all damp I opened my palm and on it lay the slain roach. For no fault of its, it had been murdered by The Wimp's friend. The wimp was happy that yet another roach had been wiped away from the surface of this earth. Sadists! A sad day for the roach community:(
