Earth is strange, isn't it

I'm here on a bench as tears are shedding on their own. Thinking about how life is difficult and how am I gonna spend the rest of it bravely.

How I will pass this trial of life when there are chances of risks all the way long. How am i going to touch and feel the fragnanace of rose without my hands touching the lower part of it; the thorns exactly, in other words how can I be successful without even going through situations which gives me a proof feeling of being successful.

Well getting something without even doing anything is called magic and that can't happen here on earth so i need to get my shit together and move on. I know you are not able to understand me ..So let's just start from the beginning shall we?

It was last exam day, the most difficult one so far,yeah its 'physics'. Some of you might love it but this is a kind of a subject which brings the worst out of me.

Last night I was all numb, trying to figure out how I am gonna spend my day, without dying, tomorrow

I felt like there's being a war inside my head , all those significant figures dancing on my head. Sine, cosine, tangent were creating a love fiction. All those equations of gravitational force, waves motion, electrostatic, atoms and nuclear, everything! Everything was just mixed up. For the worst I could've imagine, my physics professor dressed as a serial killer. Ugh!!!! There was one way left now , no it's not cheating because the wandering soul of my mum would kill me. It was learning every answer in the other way, like in the way we learnt Arabic. Not even knowing the meaning of one word but learning everything by heart n keeping it a treasure there. So I learned everything by heart, this is also called 'ratta system' in pakistan if you cloud relate.

For my surprise, by 2 am I was done learning. I just learnt some important things which I knew would make me pass this exam. This was a big relief for me. And in joy I don't even know how I went to sleep.

The next day I woke up at 7 am. I was ready in time and ate some fruits for breakfast. I hastily grabbed my bag and went away shouting, "bye aunt Sofia, wish me luck". Hearing aunt sofia's sweet voice calling my name ,"bye madiha dear, love you".

Aunt Sofia is my only relative alive. My parents died in a car crash five years ago. I don't have any siblings. So aunt kept me and treated me like her daughter as she doesn't have any child of her own. She's a optimistic person with just one regret in life, "falling in love".

At her young age she fell in love with a boy and left all her family just for him but unfortunately the boy was cheating on her. So she was all alone until she find me at the orphan age when I was 12.

Anyhow, everyone's fighting their own battle right? So I focused on fighting mine. My physics exam as I mentioned before. I reached at school by walking as its the best way and its a kinda daily exercise.

Yeah I walk alone as I don't have friends. I mean i have but I'm not a social person.

And also I hate school because everyone at school is not what they look like. People be your friend for a certain time when they're done using you. So I don't keep anyone close to me and I like my own company.

Even if I'm close to someone it doesn't hurts me if they do anything wrong because I live with a motto , "Trust and love everyone but don't take anything seriously except yourself"

I reached school to see all those zombie faces which exam has caused.

Seriously everyone was so tired except one chirping girl named "Anna". She's in my class and she's the most jealous person I've ever known in my life. I wonder why she isn't worried like others I mean it's EXAMS!! From that time I knew that she's upto something.
