6. THE. SHOWDOWN

You know what they call me . They call me Myra THE PRANKSTER of 101 pranks . Sam has messed with wrong girl . I am going to make him pay every second of his life .

Before I could sneak out of the house . My dear mother caught me .

"Myra we need to talk " ... mom said sternly .

Well ,currently I am sitting on the chair .Mom and dad are also sitting on chairs . Of course ,its not like they can sit on the dinning table placed in the corridor . That would be very funny . But now is not the time to make jokes .

" A garage ! You seriously want to work in

garage ..." mom exclaimed .

" Mom , its a nice place to work . You know how much I love machines ..." I explained .

" So you want to be a mechanic ..." old man asked while folding newspaper or should I say Mr Rishaan .

" What ? No , I mean its not bad if someone wants to be a mechanic . But I want to be an engineer . " I claimed .

" Then you have to study a lot for getting into good college ....Myra ..." Mom said

" Mom ,don't worry my part-time job won't affect my studies ....I promise ... Besides you guys wanted me to work ..."

" But its a difficult job especially for a teenage girl like you ..." Mom said

" Come on Lily we both know that she is not a normal girl . Hence I believe she will be fine ..."

What the hell ! Is he really my father . Why is he taking my side ? Looks like he has finally lost it .

" Alright but make sure it doesn't affect your studies .." mom

Finally , I have arrived at school . Now I

going to take my revenge . Muhah ...Ha ...Ha ...

Sam has arrived and now let us fun ...

" Where are my books ? " Sam asked

I just shrugged . As if not knowing anything . Mr Simpson is going to kill him .

" Myra give me my books . I know you took it . "

Sam , clearly irritated .

" Really , then find it ..."

And Mr Simpson has arrived ...

" Sir , she took my books ..." Sam ...

" What ? Miss Rishan .." Mr Simpson .

" I didn't do anything , Sir ...." I said .

" Fine let me check your bag and open your desk.." Mr Simpson...

He checked my bag and then my desk but he didn't find anything . Then he checked Sam's bag and books were right there ....

" Sam detention ...." Mr Simpson ...

"But ,Sir , I just checked and books were not there . I don't know how they appeared all of a sudden ...." Sam , helplessly ...

" Mr Gibbon ....You think this is a circus , don't you ? Now sit down and keep quiet before I suspend you ...." Mr Simpson , clearly annoyed ...

WHAT HAPPENED IN REALITY :

When Sam arrived he opened his desk with keys and went to bathroom . Meanwhile I took his books....When he arrived he started looking for his books inside the desk ....He also checked his bag ...And then when he was distracted I put his books in the bag which that numbskull didn't notice ...

LUNCHBREAK : I should lock my desk properly . Finally its lunchtime . Now I can eat something . I am so hungry .Here comes my good for nothing friend .

" You are really awesome " , Claire , " And that is why you are my friend ? "

" Stop it Claire ... I am very hungry , right now " ,I said ...

" Where is your lunchbox ?", Claire

" I didn't bring it " , I replied .

" Well , then let us eat in the canteen ."

AFTER SOMETIME : I was walking with Claire and his friends in the hallway when I saw him , Sam . He had my desk keys .He was playing catch catch with it like a ball .... I recognised my key because of the cat keychain attached to it .

I dashed towards him ....

" Give me my keys " , I said but instead of giving it to me he started running around and I naturally chased him ....

He threw my keys out of the window and they were stuck on the branch of a tree 🌲 . And bad news is that I don't know how to climb a tree,😰😰😰...

I am going to make him pay for it.

Finally school is over and I am going to school's parking space ...Why? Because I will

puncture . His bicycle tyres .

" Hey , where you going " , Claire as she appeared out of nowhere .

Wow , Claire and nowhere rhymes a lot .

" I am going to parking space " ...

" For what ? " ...Claire .

" None of your business Claire ..."

-_-/ " You are so mean ..." She whined but still followed me .

" Oh my , you are puncturing cycle 🚲 . I can't believe it you the same person who rebukes me for bullying others "...

" Its not bullying .Its payback . " , I said with devilish grin .

" God save that kid ..."

AFTER SOMETIME : I have arrived at workshop . And Mr Leo is doing something . And thankfully they have fixed lamps and now the room is no

longer dark . Now that I think about it . Its

because the garage has one small window for ventilation . That is why I also feel hot and uncomfortable whenever I am here .

" Oo , you are here " ,Mr Leo , "I am going home to have lunch . You have to fix this car by evening and Sam will also be here after sometime . Ask him for help when he arrives . "

Great now I am stuck here with that weirdo . Ok , I know I am no one to judge people when I am also weird . And I hate those who judge others for no reason . But he seriously irritates me . God , I hate him so much .

AFTER 3 hours :

Sam is still not here ...I wonder when he will come . I even punctured his tyres . Whatever its none of my business .

" Myra ...Do you know where Sam is ? " Mr Leo .

He is very worried . Where did that idiot go ? He is not even picking up his phone .

" I will go get him " , I said as I walk towards the school .

Finally , I reached the school . What the hell ! He is with his mobile phone .

" Hey , weirdo . What are you doing ? Do you even know what time it is ? " ...I spat .

" No , I was busy ...I ...Wait a minute . What are you doing here ? " Sam

" Your father was worried ...Since you didn't come back and I was kind of guilty since I punctured your tyre ..." I replied .

" You punctured my tyres ...?!" Sam .

'---' "You ...you didn't know ?" I said .

" No! I didn't ..." Sam

Damn ...I shouldn't have said anything .

" Anyway, what were you doing here ? " I asked .

" I was writing my story ..." , he answered .

" You are a writer ...?" I inquired ...

" Yeah ..." , he casually answered .

" No offense but ...Why writing ? " I asked

though he won't probably answer .

" What do you mean ? "he asked as he put his phone in his pocket .

" I mean I believe that arts .Any form of art is nothing but wastage of time . Only science is worth it . I mean science has made our lives easier while fictional writing and all other forms of art are nothing but waste of time "...

" Then why are speaking? ...Its also an art ..." Sam claimed ...

" What ? I am not talking about language . I mean ...You know all arts and social sciences are not logical they are not based on concrete evidences ..."

" But they help to understand human and human society in a better way ...Even human emotions ..." Sam .

Well , looks like there are many things on which we disagree...
