I know readers you all must be thinking why did Janet get so worked up? It was just a stomach ache which will be cured! But the point is no matter what the reason be, what her mother decides is not less than the 'commandments given.' Once told it's just an order, not even an advice. Her mother stopping her can also mean NO CAMP NOW!
Surprisingly isn't this what Janet was craving for? She herself wanted her old schedule back... that was 'Being home alone!'
However, she didn't want it anymore, she cursed and cried all day long.
"Hey! why are you not coming to the camp?" said Lola.
Lola is my neighbor. We used to go together and she is the one who used to give me all the information/gossip about what was happening and for some reason I loved to hear them.
"Its being a week since you have come, I must tell you Janet you're missing a whole lot of fun. The camp is getting better and better day by day" she expressed.
I just didn't know how am I suppose to react!
It felt more like 'Keeping food in front of a hungry dog and then taking it back in one go. Yes! That's exactly how I felt.
"Oh really! so what's all happening out there?" I asked
"We are all given chances to attend each session that are being organised by the volunteers. Sessions such as art, music, acting, and most importantly Dance! You won't believe Janet, we have special dancers called to teach us and trust me they are super hot!"
'Oh damn! I want to go back so bad. Only if this thing had started later.' I cried pointing at my abdomen.
"Oh yes! which reminds me, how do you feel now?" asked Lola.
"Don't act stupid! You know exactly that I'm fit now, it's just my mom. I so wanna come with you but I need to convince my mom as it's already being a week now"
"Why don't you try something else? "
"As in??"
"You can just tell her you're going to the camp in place of asking her!"
"But won't that be bossy. I mean, it's after all her concern"
"Try and that's when you will know if it's bossy or no!"
"Ok! I'll try it. I will tell mom I will be leaving with you tomorrow no matter what and just not to sound too bossy I will let her be assured that I am fine."
"Yes! do that"
Later that day I built up courage and went towards my mom slowly in order to talk to her
"Hey mom!"
"Hey honey" With a surprised look on her face my mom looked at the dining table and pointing towards it she questions "Food's ready?"
"Yes mom I cooked today. I know you would be so tired and it is exhausting to come and cook so I planned on doing it"
"Oh! thank you Janet this is really kind of you"
I could've simply followed what Lola told me, but I loved my mom. Being rude to her would not only hurt her but me too. And if I did so and then had gone to the camp I would have not been so stable and happy. So I thought of asking politely instead.
"Mom?"
"Yes honey"
"Can I please go and join the camp again? I know you are in no favor to send me but please let me go? It's after a long time that I got to socialize and make new friends. Please don't let this get away from me. I have being home since a week and now I did listen to you, can I now please go, my pain is completely ok. I promise"
Mom said nothing for sometime and I thought it meant a straight NO!
So I started walking out."Wait honey!"
I paused and turned towards her
"Yes mom!"
"So what do you plan to wear tomorrow?"
As soon as I heard it my eyes widened. Does this mean a yes?
Oh yes! It does. Happiness somewhat seeped into me and I ran towards her and hugged her as tight as I could.
"Thank you mom! Thank you so much!"
After I reached my room I was literally jumping all around and I started choosing what to wear. Just then I received a call form Lola...
"So ....?"
"LOLA, I'm in" I yelled in excitment!
"OMG! That's great! I see you made it through.
"Yes I did"
"That's great news Janet, so tomorrow by 6 I will be waiting outside. Don't be late! "
"Oh yes... 6 it is" And I hung up the phone.
"Camp I'm coming"
At times we do fall for things that makes us crazy. We just don't understand anything, all we think about is something that we are not aware of ! What could have being the reason for a girl who was so into the phase 'home alone' now craving to go??
Was she in love ? Or was it just infatuation? Most importantly, who was it on? Or was it a start towards something unfortunate?
Please give in your views. Will be glad to read them :) .
