After meeting with Miss Isabelle, Riya went to Maria who was waiting outside for her. Riya told Maria about all the things Miss Isabelle told her. Then Maria told that she is happy for her. Both headed to their school and the day went like this.
Another day went with good vigorous training for Riya. On the previous day before the race, Maria went to Riya's room during the time Riya was sleeping. She kept the letter which she wrote inside Riya's studying table. Also, she prayed to God that Riya should win the race.
And the day arrived for which Riya was practicing. She went to meet Maria before leaving school. But one of her roommates told Riya that she left for Bangladesh for the next tennis tournament. Riya was thinking that why Maria didn't tell her about this. Later on, she understood that if she would have told her then she would have refused her help. Riya was feeling grateful for Maria's help. Then she prayed too that Maria should win the tournament this time.
Then Riya went to school. Followed by science class, students went to physical education classes. For a surprise to Riya, today physical education instructor was different. Instead of Miss Isabelle, there was another instructor named Miss Joy came due to some urgent meeting Miss Isabelle was assigned at the last moment.
The race was going to begin. Miss Joy told the students that it is totally going to be a big race since the points would be added for sports day to respective houses. So Riya was actually ready and excited to prove her. But when she was standing in the line for the race. One of her housemates told Miss Joy that Riya is not feeling well so she can't participate in the race. Riya was going to tell Miss Joy that she can do the running and she is well. But suddenly all of her housemates said the same to her teacher Miss Joy. So Miss Joy has to agree and Riya can't speak the truth. But Miss Joy told that one of her housemates has to do the running twice as Riya will miss out. They agreed to it and also they won the race.
Riya was completely broken since she couldn't even get the chance to prove her. she was feeling betrayed by her own housemates. Added to this Falina, Farina, and Seema made fun of her and told that even her housemates think that she is good for nothing.
They had a science practicals class followed by physical education class. All were asked to test the substance with litmus paper whether it is acidic or basic. Since Riya was totally broken she was not concentrating on experiments. She wrote everything wrong. Then her science teacher was totally upset with Riya's performance and advised her to concentrate at least for Sangakkara's hope. By hearing this even more she became broken.
School got over. She rushed to her room and just wanted to talk to
family. But as per the rules students have to wait till the weekend to talk with their family unless it is urgent. She was crying so much realizing that she is falling out of Sangakkara's hopes and her ambition. Suddenly she pulls her studying table draw and finds Maria's two letters. In which they are labeled as "if you are sad" and "if you are happy".She picks the letter which is labeled as "if you are sad". Then in the letter, Maria has written "I knew how much you tried to overcome your weaknesses. Just think that today was not your day. Many athletes who are talented too don't get proper opportunities at the beginning but later when they get one, they don't miss it. Today must have not been your day. That's okay. Even your favorite Sangakkara was not good at the beginning but look now, he has become the legend. The same can go with you provided you only work hard instead of thinking about results and getting emotional weakness. I think the only obstacle you have at present is your emotional weakness. Just break it out and do everything you can do. Don't listen to others who are just making fun of you. Once you become famous they will be the first ones to make friends with you. Always remember God is on our side. This shall too pass. Wishing you all the best future champ Riya. Until we meet each other take care. "
Riya was feeling better than before and she was thinking about how she used to be bold before. Then she realized that as Maria said her only weakness which was not present before and present now is an emotional weakness. She thought that she will do everything to overcome this.
What will Riya do after this? What she is going to do for overcoming her weaknesses. Stay tuned for more updates.
