Wrong Decisions

The Results (Happy Ending)

It was May 2024, the day for Results for 12th Boards Examination.
Gandhiraj was kinda stressed out about it. Within these two months, Gandhiraj had lost his best friend who was acting as an immunity to his suicidal thoughts and self harm activities.

So the situation was heated up among the friends and families, the relatives (both Paternal and Maternal) were expecting Gandhiraj to have a good score since he was good academically since childhood but only he knows it had faded away during the Lockdown period.

The results were finally out and Gandhiraj saw that he had passed in  all the subjects. He cries out in happiness and was unable to stop his tears, then his parents' phone call comes where he was sobbing , the parents asked,

"What's wrong ? "

And he replied expressing his feelings about the whole thing. Remembering the whole journey to 12th exams and overcoming it, it was a Huge Win for Gandhiraj. (But he purposely says it in a sad tone)
He considered this not only his win, but also the win of the Gods he worshipped to for the exam success, the school staff who wished him luck, the teachers who motivated and believed in him, his cousins who believed in him, his cousins and friends who comforted him while he was going through a lot.

And as usual he puts up a status on Social Media

" FINALLY WON !!! "

Shreya congratulated him on the win as she knew what was going on with him the whole time.
And his Online siblings like Sanskriti, Daksh and Kritika congratulated him on the big win.

His Aunty came asking about the results in which he says to prank the neighbour relatives and parents that he has failed.
She and him agreed to the prank where his parents got kinda sad at beginning but after they reached home, they were surprised by seeing that their son has actually passed and was pranking with them.

" YOOO THAT WAS FOR MAKING ME FORCEFULLY APPEAR THE EXAM "
said Gandhiraj while laughing.

Then the news gets spread that whatever the neighbour relatives were hearing that Gandhiraj failed the exam was a prank and nothing else. That night too they had a feast, the marks might've been a very low for anyone appearing the exam but for Gandhiraj who was even thinking of withdrawing from the school, meant a lot to him.

After a few days, he goes to the place where he worshipped the deities Nongpok Ningthou and Panthoibi for his exam success. He gets a Xerox copy of his marksheet and hands it over to the idol of Panthoibi saying

" Mother, I've done it. "

He looks towards Nongpok Ningthou's idol and smiled saying

" Father, I've bought a lot of stuffs for both of you "

and he offers them fruits and flowers while crying in happiness.

THE END

Writer's note:
This was for my dear ones who wanted a positive ending to the story :)
IDK which ending I'll face in the results of Board Exams (I appeared for Board Exams this year itself) but there won't be any suicide case from my side. I had to finish this story before the results in order to give a message to my relatives or friend's parents who are unaware of this story. I might've escaped death but this doesn't happen with everyone. We all want a happy ending but not everyone gets a Happy Ending. And if anyone of my relatives are reading this then
I'm sorry :(
