Lost Promise

2. Stepping into the hell

My name is Joey Rana. Pretty lame name, well I know. I am like one of the stereotypical nerd who is hollered up in her book. And like most nerds I wear glasses and carry stacks of books everywhere I go. I like math and they say people who don't like math are beautiful.

First day of high school; big responsibilities your popularity really counts a lot when u r in high school. It's no place for a nerd like me. I doubt if I would make any friends. I never had any actual friends anyway. Books were my only support and books will be.

'You need to stop ranting and get into the seminar hall right now! Do you have any idea on how late you are?!' 

There you go. My ultra hyper mini me is shouting at me now.

I lost a stupid sock! Rest of all were in laundry. 

There goes my'I am innocent' mini me. If that even makes sense.

Laziness speaks for itself.

'Shut up both of you and support me I am entering the holy grail of torture itself. I am already half an hour late on an one hour event!'

Well I didn't suggest you to know the 19th prince of Columbia!

I agree with that too.

It's my passion okay? Reading is my passion. Why don't the both of you just help me out today? Please  this is the last thing I ask out of you.

Then I entered the seminar hall. The hall was the only hall in the entire school. It had an elaborate stage well framed with flashing lights. The background wall was beautifully painted with the country flag, peculiar characters of the country Nepal and some school slogans and logos. 

Pretty nice job out there. Bit of nationalism here and there doesn't hurt right?

True! The Gorkhali pride!

"Mary! Where were you?! You are half an hour late!", Sandhya exclaimed.

 She was the only person I knew here. We were classmates from the elementary school.

"Hi. It's very pleasing to see you too!"

"Stop with this sarcasm of yours. They are calling names and after your name comes up you will have to go on that stage take the mic and blurt out your name and introduction."

"WHAT?!!"

"The exact thing that you heard." She gave me an evil grin with that. Nerves of this girl.

The first day is turning out to be an absolute nightmare.
