After giving the speech for the very first time in my life, when I was leaving that stage, I heard a lot of claps for me, and the cute smile on faces of everyone. I was shacking in happiness, I was feeling like the brave Wamik had killed the fearful Wamik sometime ago standing on the stage. When I moved towards the table where my squad was sitting, they started to ask the name of the person whom I was thanking for inspiring me. Someone thought she is any teacher, because on that day my precious english teacher was absent unfortunately. She is the one who gave my name in the 14th of August function. After sometime I got up from the seat and went to capture photos with teachers, and when I saw the coordinator who wasn't giving me permission to do speech before, I asked him if I can do that speech in school now, his answer made me feel like a winner. He said "G zaroor zaroor". That day when I came back to home I was really happy and confuse, if it was me on the stage talking in front of all the teachers. The thing which brought smile on my face was that attention of those beautiful God's message promoters. There was only one week left in our school days and I was not in mood to do that speech whole week. On the last day I went school earlier in the morning, after meeting friends I came downstairs and went to the stage to find the teacher whose house week that was. On the way I met one teacher, I asked her if it was her week, she told me her house week was starting on next monday and she asked me to do recitation on Monday, I innocently said "but ma'am it's our last day". She asked "Are you all really going?", being simpler I replied "yes" and took steps toward stage. When I reached on stage, house week teacher was standing, I went closer to her and asked her if I can do the same speech I did on that farewell, she replied "But today we have already one speech to do", I was literally crying inside but I controlled my tears and told her that it was my last day in school. Her kindness, she replied "Then I will cancel translation of National Anthem for you today, be ready to come", I went happily upstairs to my class and told my friend Sarim that today because of my speech they will cancel Translation of National Anthem. O my innocence, I had forgotten no one can stop the words uttered for the beauty of Pakistan. I reached on the stage at the time of assembly and that teacher asked me to stand there and she was going to get permission for me. She went to female coordinator and she came to me and she was the one who was helping me to get a permission to do that session in school since three months but I was only allowed to deliver speech on farewell. She told me that male coordinator is still not present here, now we have only one way, I have to ask principal. She went towards principal and the assembly was continue, I saw her uttering something in his ear and his confused reaction, he said no with his head and I understood that my today's chance is gone. She came to me and told me that he want to listen first, I said "it's all fine but it's out last day!", she said "okay come with me", I went backstage with her and there she tried to make me forget that speech by giving me some reasons like "kids are not gonna listen to you". She had given me these reasons already many days ago and my reply was always "Kids don't listen because they are not told, I will be on a stage and I swear they will listen to me". She asked me to go to my line, if coordinator will appear she will ask him for permission. With words like "okay" on my tongue I joined the assembly. When at a break time I was going downstairs, coordinator came to me and he had already news about that situation which happened at morning. He told me a good news that our assembly will be continue during exams. That was the first time that during exams our assembly had to be continue.
That day he came to our class to invite all the students early to listen to my speech.
I wasted whole exams week and on last exam I went to the house week teacher and asked her for speech, she was so kind and she said yes why are you asking just do that. I was feeling too worried, because that was the first time I was gonna do speech in front of whole school, and I had to fulfil my promise that every kid will understand my story and listen to me carefully. My soul sibling for whom whole speech was made was unfortunately standing on the caution that day. So if she will smile during my speech everyone will easily look at her. I saw our principal was leaving the stage to go to his office and I was happy for that but when he heard first word from me, he stopped and looked back and stood there to listen to my speech, and I was not happy with that because he was the one who denied my speech before. I thought he will stop me during speech because I am going to talk about my personal life. I started my speech and I felt like an energy spreading in whole assembly hall. When the lines came where I was talking about her, I noticed she got a little shock and then she started to smile without thinking about others. Her smile made a lot of deep thinkers to get that I was talking about her. And when I stuck between some lines, everyone started clapping and that gave me time to recall my memory. I saw our senior male coordinator running towards ground to listen to my speech and I could feel the feeling of every teacher. That was officially our last day of our school finally. In the end of that speech I was feeling too much motivated and I talked with full efforts. I remember the claps and specially the words "nice, nice, good" uttered by the principal standing on the same place where my eyes left him last time. When I went back to waiting place on our stage, principal came to me, hand shacked with me and said "boht awla, shabash, very nice". But at the end of the day, the only thing which made me happy was thanking her in front of whole school. I did whatever I wanted to do before leaving that place. I was the guy who was silent like he is celebrating world's peaceful minute forever, and today same guy made whole little crowd touch their voice of claps to the sky. I believe, if I can fulfil my little dreams, my bigger dreams, why can't I? I can't forget the respect I got in that school for the first and for the last time. I was the guy on whom they used to bet to talk, and that day my voice was echo in the hall. I will always miss that day, and the love of all the teachers, they were sad that I was leaving, but I was happy that someone is sad for losing me. I have to clear my goals and run forward, for that I am not supposed to stick somewhere, if I will stick somewhere then I believe Allah will be always there to clap for me to give me the time to recall the memory. Always be thankful to those who inspire you little bit, their little inspiration can change your whole life, thanking her wasn't enough but that's what I could do only for now. That song motivates me to believe, "Standing in the hall of fame, the world's gonna know your name". Regrets a part, success is the perspective. Regrets made me demotivated, and inspiration made me motivated.
I am thankful to regrets because if I had never became demotivated, I could never become motivated again. Those people never walk who fear to fall and never stand. Yes I learnt, and let you learn now.
