True face

After our dance performance was over we went to backstage.

Our dance teacher was very happy because we delivered everything he taught us in the past days.

Sakshi and the warden hugged me then our principal came and he was also very happy with our performance.

Then we waited for the winners announcement.

But my eyes were looking elsewhere.

I was stealing a glance of him when he was looking elsewhere.

Other performers are also very capable , their performance was also very good.

we knew that the competition was going to be very tough .

We were praying when the time came.

Host announced that everyone should come to the stage for the announcement .

I took my teachers , warden blessings and Sakshi wished me good luck and I went to the stage with Arjun.

We went to the stage .

I was very nervous ,I was practically shivering .

The host first announced who the runner-up was and then the time came for announcing the winner.

I was shivering , Arjun saw me and grabbed my hand to steady me. I looked at him but I didn't draw my hand away .

the host started countdown -" 5-4-3-2-1 the winner is SST school of Dehradun . we won I couldn't believe it but we won.

The host told us to come to the center of the stage so everyone can see us .

Now the prize was given to us by our principal . our principal was so happy he hugged us both and blessed us.

Because our school won that trophy after 15 years so he was very happy.

when we were celebrating something hit me . when I looked down I saw a rotten egg hit me then lots of eggs and tomato started to hit me only me. like someone was aiming for me only. within 5 minutes I was fully covered in eggs and tomatoes.

I saw two of the people who was aiming for me . it was Shama and Sagar Arjun's friends. I was shaken to my core.

I couldn't move I just stood there then someone dragged me out of there.

when I looked at the person who was rescuing me ,it was Arjun.

I remembered all the things he said to me before.

I was a fool to believe that he cares about me. everything that happened to me today was because of him.

without his consent his friends can't do this .

So I took him to a corner and slapped him .

I told him -'' I never thought you will go this low to break me . I am ashamed of myself that I ever thought that you care about me. you can never care for a person because you have a heart of monster. do you know what you are , you are a lonely and cowered person that's why you always help your friends so they don't leave you ever. you can never be someone's well wisher.but the only thing I can't understand why are you pretending to have concerns for me. you should've just left me there to be more humiliated.you should've shown everyone your true face. you would've been more happy".

I wanted to say more but Sakshi took me away.

My head was spinning. Sakshi took me to the hostel and sat me down and our warden turned over a bucket of water on my head .

I felt like my tensions are flowing away with the water.
