    Lizzy, a cheerful schoolgirl, was caught doodling in her notebook during a math class. As a consequence, she was sent to the Headmistress.

    The Headmistress, known for her strict discipline, was feared by all students. She had a cane that she used to punish the misbehaving students.

    Lizzy stepped into the office, her heart pounding. She glanced at the cane resting on the Headmistress's table, the fear growing.

    'Why were you doodling in class, Lizzy?' the Headmistress asked sternly. Lizzy stuttered, 'I... I was just...'

    'I was just trying to understand the problem better, ma'am,' Lizzy managed to say. 'I learn better when I visualize things.'

    The Headmistress looked at her for a moment, then said, 'Show me.' Lizzy quickly sketched how she visualized the math problem.

    The Headmistress looked at Lizzy's notebook, her stern expression softening. 'I see. You have a unique way of learning.'

    'I didn't mean to disrupt the class, ma'am,' Lizzy said, feeling a bit more confident. 'I promise to keep my doodling at a minimum.'

    'I appreciate your honesty, Lizzy,' the Headmistress said, putting the cane back in its place. 'Just try not to distract others.'

    Lizzy nodded, feeling relieved. 'I will, ma'am,' she replied, her heart rate finally slowing down.

    As Lizzy walked out of the office, she felt a sense of relief wash over her. She had stood up for herself and it felt good.

    From that day forward, Lizzy continued to learn in her unique way, but without causing any disruptions. She had learnt a valuable lesson that day.
