God of Science

And on the wall behind the sleeping child there was a white screen, which was square in shape with the size of around one meter length. On that white screen the janitor saw a beautiful pattern of colors that was constantly moving in a very interesting manner.

It was daytime, so the colors were not that clearly visible but there was a small bulb that was still giving off light and a few lenses, a glass half filled with water and a prism arranged between the light bulb and the white screen.

Later when everyone found out about the incident, teachers of physics department in the senior wing were very interested in his work. They asked him how he made a heater and the optical colorful pattern, his reply was actually pretty simple but still amazing to hear.

June said that he was a bit scared at first, so to distract himself he started to look around. While looking around the physics lab he saw a few pictures and diagrams of the experiments that were hung all around the four walls all over the physics lab and below each one of the illustrated diagram there was a cabinet.

It was winter season so in an empty big room the temperature was pretty low. After some time when he started feeling cold, he looked towards one of the drawings on the wall. Below this drawing he saw something written in two big words, those words were 'RESISTANCE HEATER'.

After Reading that word 'HEATER', he couldn't help but open that cabinet and see the devices, of which most of them looked similar to the drawing on the wall just above that cabinet.

So, after spending a few hours on experimenting with hit and trail he completed an ugly looking but efficiently working 'heater' just before the evening. After completing the heater, he waited for some time for someone to unlock the doors of the physics lab but no one came and it was starting to get dark.

To keep himself occupied he took a look at another drawing on which he saw a light bulb. It was a 'PRISM DISPERSION EXPERIMENT' in which a white ray of light is separated into seven colors using a triangular piece of glass known as 'prism'. The bulb that he saw was the one from which the white light was coming. So, he opened that cabinet and in the next few hours he occupied himself with the experiment of hit and trial.

When he completed the 'prism dispersion experiment' he saw a beautiful rainbow colored pattern on the white screen.

While looking at the stars in the silence of night he noticed that the stars were twinkling and not constantly glowing like the bulb.

A question came to his mind that 'why does this light bulb not twinkle?'. If the bulb can twinkle, will someone notice it and open the doors of this locked room?

He looked around the lab to find something that can do this job but it couldn't be helped. One again feeling bored he took a transparent drinking glass from one of the cabinets that he found while looking around and filled some drinking water in it.

After drinking a little bit of water from it he kept the glass on the floor. Coincidently, he had kept the half filled glass of water right in between the light bulb and the prism. While the water in the glass still had a few ripples in it, the seven colors on the wall started moving accordingly with the rhythm of the ripples in the glass.

It made an image so beautiful that was hard to forget for June. It looked like the floating curtains of seven colored aurora that one can see in the northern part of the planet.

When June saw this disturbance of lights on the white screen, he suddenly stopped moving. His eyes were stuck on those colors that were rhythmically moving on that white screen, his mind went in a complete trance.

For a small child, this simple piece of beauty in desperate situations can become much more satisfying than any food or other delicacies of the world.

He forgot all his fears, anxiety, hunger, emotions, cold and everything.

Nothing could stop him from feeling amazed. He kept looking at it until he felt calm and comfortable and slowly his tired eyes closed slowly while looking at those colorful patterns, without any realization of the world. Then he fell asleep in the never ending silence of night.

When those teachers of the senior wing heard this story from the mouth of a simple twelve year old, they were too shocked to realize the simplicity in his words that was hidden behind his amazing actions.
