"vera what do you think about yourself answer me"

an old lady was yelling and 16 years old vera was standing still starring at floor

old lady: I am asking you something , if you were not attending your school then where the hell you were from last one month

she said in a angry tone

old lady : then why you were not going to school ?

vera: what's the use of going to school, everyone their bully me by saying daughter of thief I don't wanna go , I can't bear that humilation any more

old lady: then where were you?

vera didn't reply so that old lady sat on a nearby chair with her head in between her hands , I was working in a convinece store she replied in a soft voice

old lady: oh god vera who said you to work and earn money when I am sending you school

vera: why are you acting all two goody shoes, your all savings are already being stolen by my father, and now you are spending rest of it on my study whereas your treatment is more important than that and why are you even raising why don't you abandon my like everyone else did she said while sobbing with a shaky voice

old lady: vera i am your grandmother if i will not take care of you then who will

vera: exactly you are my grandmother not mother and my when my biological father don't give a damn about me why do you care? when he left me why are you spending your savings on me ?

her grandmother: enough vera i am not going to listen anything now , you are filling this admission form and joining new school and that's final

vera: no i am not going to take any admission i am done with being bullied everytime because of that person and i will never go back to school you should listen too, no matter whatever i do my ill fate will never leave me , i am never going to be happy

her grandma: but if you will not go to school then what you will do, their is nothing you can do without education and you are such a good student if you try

she almost yell

her grandmother: ok so now i will for sure not going to take my medine and not going to eat anything and i will be found dead then it will be your responsibility then you can give your money to anyone you want to

and she walk out of room stomping her feet

vera thought that her grandmother 's anger is temporary and she will understand that even studying hard is not going to do anything good for her, but when her grandmother actually didn't eat anything for whole day she become worried and her stubbornness kneel down in front of her grandmother's wish
