The story of the watches and me

My family was relatively poor when I was very young, and I had no idea what the watch is. I ever read the book "Newton's Story” when I was in primary school, when I was told that Newton mistook the watch for the egg to have it fried when doing experiments. I was very puzzled but to ask my father: "What is the watch? Do you have a watch?" He said to me expressively: "my dear, watch is a piece of glass which can show the time, Look !" he picked up a small alarm clock which had been covered with rust ,"This is the alarm clock, watches are like small alarm clocks, only smaller than the alarm clocks."

    So,
the watch was a piece of glass in my memory. Until I won the first name in the first Chinese examination in my class, I gained a Breguet replica my sister bought for me who had dropped out of school to work in the city. Besides it was also the most valuable gift I had in that period. However, my classmates were rushing for it when I took the watch to school, and instantly there was a sharp voice from a naughty boy, he said: “It is nothing extra, it is just only a plastic watch, I have a metal Cartier replica in my home, let me bring it to give you a show tomorrow!”Then he looked at the watch scornfully, and I thought there was a great blow to my self-esteem, I walked back to my seat without any words. After that incident, I no longer had worn the watch.
   

After working as an ordinary teacher, I had my own independent economic capability. I often thought of the past of the others’ contempt for my father and In order to let him hold his head high in front of others, I nodded devoutly when the schoolmaster said to me: " You teach the students in first grade this year, the teaching work will start on July 15, and firstly you should teach the students letters.” More than a month later, when I got the things called wages for the first time, I firmly held the sweat soaked several hundred Yuan and I rushed to the watch store directly. I gave the owner more than 200 Yuan without any hesitation after choosing a piece of flashing golden surface Longines replica, and then I ran home. I saw the blinking tears in my father’s eyes when I wore the priceless watch in his wrist, finally He said excitedly: "it is not real at all that “the son is better than the daughter”, I have a good daughter, and I will be happy.” hearing this, I cried. 
   
   Now, I also returned to the former school, besides our school had experienced the promotion from the district level to the municipal level, and this time it is faced with a promotion to the provincial level. Perhaps I am a man not caring about gains and losses ,Thus the school master appointed me as a person in charge leading an important topic of scientific research class .and I suddenly was at a loss when I heard that I had to  teach the class I was not familiar with at all. However, I could not shrink back but to do my best prepare for it for the promotion of our school. And Events were to be in practice because of class type, so I had to spend the vacation with more than a dozen students around every corner in the streets to obtain a public class materials needed.

    Finally, everything was ready, and I thought maybe a miracle would appear on my body, I did not have to coach in the class of the provincial level. Unfortunately, God does not have mercy on me, and I could not escape as a school-based curriculum. On that day, when the children were sitting in the classroom in neat manners I then realized that my watch had not moved but to be sleepy. I had to rid off the watch of a little boy besides me in a hurry.
  

 When all had passed, I took a deep breath for grievance I had suffered these days. Back to the school the next day, a little gentle and quiet girl among the students came to me with hands on the back, she stretched out the palm of the hand, a beautiful Omega replica which is her favorite appeared, then she said to me gently: "My dear teacher, this is my favorite watch, I give it to you and you need not ask someone else for the watch from now on.” At that moment, suddenly a warm stream poured in my heart, and I was so excited that I embraced her tightly without any words for a long time. "Thank you, my dear, I thank you for your warm heart ,however ,this is your favorite watch, and the teacher can not rub you of your favorite, please keep it well and I will buy a watch myself in the future .”But she said:" Now you take it with you since you don't have one. “At that moment I knew there were rolling tears in my eyes and I can not do anything but to accept the delicate watch with a smile. (Of course, I did not wear it but I thought I received a heavy love.)

    There were many stories about watch in my life, although the father had passed away, however, the watch I bought for him was still in his wrist while he was dead. I think he was very reluctant to leave us in the world! Later on I returned the watch back to the little girl as I also bought a piece of new Patek Philippe replica but her deep love to me was rooted in my heart for ever and I can never forget it.
