MIRROR

Ticket to Humilation

Deep sheet. Ya that is his accent. Whenever we have to cuss, we switch to his accent, but that does not matter here.

I was sitting in the trustee office after about 15 minutes, Natasha besides me. Mr. Hamilton was eating some candy. He loved candy. He stared at me for some time, then got up from his chair.

"Tell me the truth, what happened? How you, a scrawny guy, defeat 4 bullies at once?" he asked me in his own accent.

"I am telling the truth. They pinned me in front of the mirror, i blacked out, when i woke up, i saw you were standing in front of me." I said.

"He is telling the truth. He cannot take on a girl, more less Danny.", Natasha pointed out.

"SO much respect." I whispered.

"Hmm....... looks like I think you are THAT.", he said.

My eyes opened up wide, I thought what could I be, a superhero? a ninja? an alien?

Then he said," You are one of the late blooming idiots. You dont seem to know what your body is capable of. But I think I can help you with it. You will stay back in school for practice for the upcoming Boxing match in the upcoming Local Sports Day. It will help you understand yourself."

Oh, bummer.

I seriously was not willing to get beaten up by state level champions in front of a huge crowd on a big boxing ring. I have already been humilated for 1 life, no more.

"Sorry, sir. I dont think I want to do this."I said

"Only other choice you have is to get rusticated.", he said.

No. If i got rusticated, how was I suppose to earn a good living. Where would be my Ferrari? my Limo? my underwater 5BHK flat? Nope, cant risk it.

"I will love to do as u say sir!" ,I said.

"Good" he said.

The only reason I said yes was not because I wanted to earn a nice living, but also that the trustee office has a really nice menu of ammunition. Once there was this kid who had a fight with Mr. Hamilton in the Trustee office,......... well, his body is not recovered yet.

I left the room with Natasha at my side. We were walking upstairs to the Bio lab when she broke the silence.

"Dont worry, you can always wear a mask. No one will know that it is you getting beaten up.", she said

"Thanks.", I said.

"Come on, dont be so depressed, cheer up, there is about a month left for the event. If you start practicing from tomorrow.........'

"I dont understand what happened at the washroom.", I interrupted, " I swear I saw my reflection smirking when I was being bullied. Something is wrong. "

"Come on Leo. Dont link everything to your phobia. You know better.", she said.

As she said that we came near the drinking station. It has a mirror hanging up on the wall.

"Come on, Leo. Let us get rid of your phobia for once and for all. ", she said.

She pulled me in front of the mirror. I did not resist. I wanted to get rid of my crazy ideas too.

I looked at my reflection with a bit of fear in my heart.

I looked at it and shouted, "What do you think you are? You are a simple reflection of me. What do you think of yourself? I am your boss!! You are just a copy cat copying me whenever i come infront of a mirror!!! You suck!!! You are.........."

"Chill, bro.", interrupted my reflection.
