How So Many People Have Been Surviving Because Of The Word "Appreciation" by Pepuscutie270(f): 11:43pm On Jul 27, 2016
The only thing that gets mum so riled up where dad is, is usually his inability to appreciate her overwhelming efforts to run the family.

As I was still trying to decipher why I was rushed that way, they took my books and bag. Tried to stop them but couldn't. I relented. They took those stuffs to the staff room, as they were coming out, I decided to surprise them. I gave them little money for their recess . They were so happy I became infected with their smiles. I felt so good for having appreciated their kind gesture. 2hours later, four girls came to the staff room again...
