Sam also is in the cafeteria . He is ordering his lunch I wonder what he ordered . Not that I care but he said that I am similar to him . If I am similar to him then our food choice should be similar to some extent . Whatever .

" M , I am sorry . I didn't mean to hurt you . ", Lily sat besides me on the chair .

Honestly , I don't know what to say . I mean whatever she said yesterday was kind of right. I am insensitive and people are pitying me . Hence I don't know what to say . I won't say anything to her .

" Look , I behaved like an idiot yesterday . I - I am sorry . I really am . You know I just miss Serena . She used to be besides me all the time . Now that she is besides you I feel envious and angry . Look you can shout at me for once . At least say something . " Lily looking at me . I turned to see her guilty look .

I don't know what to say to her but there is a feeling of pain in my heart . I mean its not my fault that everyone wants to pity because of a disabled leg . It wasn't my fault that some random guy on the road decided to hit me . But I won't say anything to her because she won't understand what I am going through . She won't --- So what is the point of making her understand .

At last Lily sighed in frustration and gave up . We sat silently besides each other for a long time .
Then I was about to go to my class when I heard some noises .

" Why don't you say anything now ? Idiot . "

" I didn't say anything to teachers . "

" Then who did ? Tell us or you aren't going anywhere . "

Bullies ... How are people so free ? Why do people make each others life more difficult than it already is ? Life already sucks even if they don't do that .

Finally , classes are over and Serena is here .

" Your boyfriend is here Myra --- ", Someone shouted idiotically while everyone else burst into 🤣🤣🤣🤣 . People are weird .

It was funny . Even Lily is more funny than that .

" Myra , you okay ? ", Serena with concern .

" Yeah I am . ", I replied .

" Look , don't mind what Lily said . She is an idiot . She doesn't know what to say to other people . But she is not that bad .",Serena .

" I know . ", I said .

Our school's parking lot is quite spacious . There are many expensive cars parked on either side of the parking space .

I open the door of car and sit on the passenger seat . Serena also entered the car began to start it . Nothing new , nothing special . But unfortunately car has not started . No matter how much she tries to start the engine . It doesn't start .
" I will check the engine . ", I told Serena .

"Wait a minute , I will open the hood of car . " , Serena .

As soon as Serena opened the hood , grey smoke came out . I am checking the engine right now . No , it can't be fixed here .

" We have to take the car to garage . ", I told Serena .

" Ok , I will book the cab ", Serena .

Its clearly evident from the weather that winter will end . Spring will arrive soon . Time really flies fastly .

" Private cabs are not available . We have to share the cab with others . ", Serena .

" Its okay .", I said .

Cab arrived after a while . And surprisingly Sam also entered the cab with us . It was a spacious taxi . There was a woman , an old man and a teenage girl sitting in the cab besides us .

Me , Serena , Sam and the girl sat in the back seat .

Sam is sitting besides the girl .

AFTER A WHILE :
When we will we reach home . There is traffic jam in this area . Someone said that the roads are blocked because of government orders . Looks like we are stuck on the road for a long time . Sam as usual is writing something on his phone . Serena is looking out of the window probably thinking something . Man I feel nauseous . Me and my motion sickness . I look towards Sam and noticed something strange the girl sitting besides him is trying to take something out from Sam 's pocket . She is a thief. Should I say something ? But what if its not like that . What if I am misunderstanding something ?

" What are you doing ? ", Sam asked the girl .

" What are you doing? You were molesting me .
Guys like you should be turned in hell . ", the girl .

" What ? When did I molest you ? ", Sam anxiously .

" Oh , then Let us decide it in police station or do you want to compensate me ? ", the girl with confidence .

Sam looked scared . It seemed like someone had taken his soul away from him . Oh no . Before Sam could say anything I said:

" Ok , you can take him to the police station . And I will also say what I saw with my own eyes . " I stated .

As soon as I said that face of girl morphed from being confident to flustered . Everyone in the cab was looking at us .

" No -no , there is no need . Stop the cab I want to get out of the car . ", she said
And then she got out without paying taxi driver .

" Thank you . ", Sam told me with a soft smile .

"Its okay . ", I said .

Then everyone remained silent until I reached home with Serena .

" You are not that insensitive or cold hearted , Myra . ", Serena .
Suddenly it felt good . I feel like maybe I am not that useless yet .

I feel good . I should study while this good feeling lasts .

AFTER A WHILE :

" Can I come in ? ", mom

" Mom ? Yeah , you can come in . " , I said .

" I bought a iphone for you . ", mom .

" Mom , what are you talking about ? Where is my mother ? You can't be my real mother . ", I told her .

" Very funny but actually I am not your real
mom . Your father brought you home from streets . ", mom .

" Yeah I knew that especially from the way he treats me . ", I said .

" No, don't say that your father loves you but in a different way . Parents always love their children ", mom .

" Yeah that is why we find many children dumped on the road like garbage . ", I spat .

" Don't say that--- . ", she said .

" Aren ' t you happy that I finally brought you a phone . ", mom .

" Yeah I am ---", I said .

" Then show me your beautiful smile . ", mom

" No , I will show you my ugly smile . ", I said and folded my lips to show my teeth . Yeah I can do that perhaps its because of the fact that my lips are thin but my mouth is big enough to do something like that .
