Conversation: Anne Frank and Mr. Keesing ☝️👇

(Mr. Keesing calls Anne after class. He smiles kindly, holding her essay in his hand.)

Mr. Keesing: Anne, I must say, your last essay “Quack, Quack, Quack, Said Mistress Chatterbox” was quite amusing!

Anne: (smiling) I hoped you’d like it, sir. I just wanted to show that even chatterboxes can be creative.

Mr. Keesing: (laughing) You certainly did! I read your poem to the class, and everyone enjoyed it. I never thought a punishment could turn into such fun.

Anne: Maybe talking isn’t always bad, sir. Sometimes, it helps us share ideas and joy.

Mr. Keesing: You’re right, Anne. I’ve realized that too much silence can make a class dull. Keep your cheerful spirit—but perhaps talk a little less during lessons!

Anne: (grinning) I’ll try, sir. Thank you for understanding.

Mr. Keesing: And thank you for reminding me to laugh!

(They both smile as the bell rings.)

Dear Kitty,

Tonight, as I sit by the window, I keep thinking about my life. How quickly everything has changed! I used to go to school, laugh with my friends, and dream about becoming a writer. Now, the world outside is full of fear and silence. Sometimes I wonder why people hate each other so much.

Still, I am thankful for my family. Father is kind and strong, and Mother tries her best to keep us together. Margot is quiet but caring. I often feel scared, but I try to stay hopeful. One day, this terrible war will end, and peace will return.

I want to live, not just survive. I want to write stories that make people believe in goodness again. Even in the darkest times, I still believe that people are 

truly good at heart.

Yours,

Anne 

A Question of Trust Description 

The story “A Question of Trust” by Victor Canning is about Horace Danby, a man who looked honest but secretly stole once every year. He loved rare and expensive books and robbed only to buy them. He planned carefully and thought he was clever. At Shotover Grange, he entered the house to open the safe. But he was tricked by a young woman dressed in red, who pretended to be the owner’s wife. Horace trusted her and opened the safe without gloves, leaving his fingerprints. Later, the real owner denied his story, and Horace was caught and sent to prison. The story shows that crime never pays. It also shows the irony that even a thief can be cheated by another thief.

Time:

Dear Diary,

Today I met the Buddha, and my heart feels both heavy and enlightened. I told him about my dead child and begged for medicine to bring him back. The Buddha asked me to bring mustard seeds from a house where no one had ever lost a loved one. I thought it would be easy, but as I went from house to house, I realized that every family had suffered loss. For the first time, I understood that death is a part of life, and no one can escape it. My grief is still deep, but now I feel a strange calmness in my heart. I am learning that sorrow is universal, and perhaps by accepting this truth, I can find peace.

Kisa Gautamy.
