Chapter 17 Law Of Attraction

Chapter 17

Law Of attraction

 “You will attract everything that you require. If it’s money you need you will attract it. If it’s people you need you’ll attract it. You’ve got to pay attention to what you’re attracted to, because as you hold images of what you want, you’re going to be attracted to things and they’re going to be attracted to you. But it literally moves into physical reality with and through you. And it does that by law.

The wobbling head of  Shruti was trying to take in what was happening around when Piu reached but was intrigued by loud voices of quarrelling and Simi’s crying.

Unable to decipher, Shruti was on the verge of collapsing when Govind smiled at her hugging Shruti and patting Piu proudly.

“I want to go home...” Shruti uttered in muted voice that sick she was when Rita, Lina and mothers of other skaters came over congratulating Shruti

“Congrats, your hard work and of course Piu’s”

“Congo. See finally both your efforts are paid off.”

“You are such evil”

“You cheated”

"This victory is biased"

The mix of voices some bitter, some appreciative echoed Shruti’s ears.

It was later after a long nap and some medics that Shruti gulped than Irfan sir came to talk “I can't believe it; this happened. Piu was always my favorite and I wanted her to win but” he shrugged.

“I have no idea what you are talking about. I only knew there was a major fight between you and Simi’s mom on the venue. What happened?” Shruti asked as she picked her luggage ready to leave back home.

Govind was taking care of the fuel and the pressure of the tyres for a long journey by road.

“It was like on the start line Piu started late and I had seen her skating during practice sessions. So. I simply commented to one of my friends who also happens to be a local coach here that ’see this girl is last and once she returns after the turn she’ll be in top three position and while I was celebrating Piu’s bronze medal, I turned around to see a very fumigated Simi’s mom standing disappointed that Piu overtook Simi in the race. She just lost it.”

“I honestly never knew about all this” Shruti said

“You were too unwell to realize what was happening around. You almost collapsed in my arms” Govind said as he protectively picked luggage from Shruti’s hands and walked towards the car signaling Shruti to follow.

He wanted to avoid gossips haunting his dear wife. And what happened in the morning wasn't a very healthy thing to be discussed. He’d brief Shruti up on the way home. It was anyways a six hours drive.

Shruti was left in wonder how Piu overtook Pro-Simi in the road race. It was an amazing achievement but the thought of a disappointed Anu, Simi’s mom and her accusing Shruti and Govind as buying favoritism from the coach was inviting the killer headache that she’d been suppressing with painkillers since morning.

“It's okay” Govind squeezed Shruti's hand comforting “we didn't do anything wrong. Soon they’ll realize. Don't worry. Sit back, relax and enjoy Piu’s victory. Our little baby had made us proud” Govind said wriggling his eyebrows at Piu’s reflection on the rear view mirror

Piu’s shoulders broadened at a word of appreciation by her father.

“What?” Shruti shouted at the other end of the phone where Rita was monging over the impact of piu’s victory on Simi’s parents.
