Boring routine
*Lilly just wokeup and started getting ready for college
Lilly

Ahhh...are you even a student...Is this a question that a college girl should ask ? 😒
Lilly

* Lilly grabs her bag and rushes to college
mom
Hey....don't skip your breaky ...you are already so skinny
Lilly

Lilly
with their goofy faces some asks me like....which school are you studying...you are so skinny ...gain some weight la.... 😤😤 shhh.....can't they mind their own business 😒😣
* Yuna ( Lilly's bestie ) comes waving at Lilly
Lilly
# lilly's pov
Ahh....In this judgmental world other than my mom the only one who likes me for who I am is yuna....I like her so much
she is so perfect with her thoughts and looks...sometimes I envy her 🙁 but whatever I love her 😍
*Lilly waves back and runs towards her
Rose
As a class representative I would like to announce that we are going to have a fresher's day event in upcoming week ...so everybody get ready
* whole class shouts with cheers
Rose
Anyone interested can give their names for group dance
Lilly
what do you think Yuna ....shall we ?
yuna
yess ....I am very much excited ....I can't wait to dance 🤩🤩
* both goes to give their names
* Lilly is a class topper and Rose is always jealous of her so she always waits for a chance to decieve her
Rose
Oh sweety ....To dance one should have a great body...And look at yourself ....all you got is pimples , skinny body and a large nose🤭 how can you imagine you will look good when you dance....it's really embarrassing to take you in our team....we only allow Yuna and not you
* Lilly was deeply hurt and holded her tears back
yuna
shut up rose....you don't have any right to judge others by looks...moreover Lilly is a good dancer and I love her tha way she is....so please stop it...and also I don't wanna dance with such a sick minded person like you
*yuna grabs Lilly's hands to takes her to cafeteria
yuna
stop crying ...they don't know your talent that's it
Lilly
No....what she said is right...I have a skinny body , ugly nose...*sobbing
Lilly
please leave me alone .....
* Lilly ran away to terrace and crying
* unknowingly Lilly slept
Lilly
Thanks for coming....Don't know how and why but u always appear when I am in trouble and sorrow...u r a magician to me....you are like my shadow ( hugs and cries even harder )
He lifts her chin up by his smooth and pretty hands and says I will always be there for u lilly.....
* Lilly suddenly woke up and checked her surroundings
Lilly
what was that....is it a dream....arghhh....I really felf surprised...
* Lilly heads back to class
Week before Fresher's day - 1
* Lilly haven't ate all the day and kept crying for the disrespect that she recieved by her classmate infront of all
* she became too weak and she lost her conciousness
shadow
Hey Lilly why are you crying ?
* Lilly explained everything that happened in college
shadow
hahaha....you are crying for that ? uh ? where all your confidence has gone ? if she doesn't allow you for a group dance go for solo performance
Lilly
No ...I feel like I can't do this ...what if everyone starts thinking like rose about my looks ?....no...there's no way I can do this
shadow
Aah...come on....you can do this ....see don't be afraid of criticism....now you can't do anything with your nose and in 1 week you cannot gain body weight....All you can do is buildup your confidence babe
shadow
if you try hard , you can get rid of pimples ....will that give you any confidence? if yes then tell me...I will give you remedies to get rid of them
Lilly
yes...yes ...I feel like getting rid of these pimples but I never tried anything....please tell me
shadow
but you should promise me 2 things ....
1. I cannot give assurance that you will get fairer skin within just week...all I can say is you can get rid of most of them like 90% ...so you should not feel bad for the remaining ones because they fade away after sometime ...
2. you should do your solo performance ..otherwise I won't say any remedies
* Lilly is thinking deeply
Lilly
ummm....ok...tell me
Lilly
hey...wait...what's your name ?
shadow
haha...why can't you give me some nickname ?
Lilly
umm....I don't know ...but you always appear to me when iam in sorrow...u r like my shadow ...so I will name you as shadow...is that ok ?
shadow
hahah....I loved it..☺️
Lilly
ok...now tell me the remedies
* shadow tells her all the possible remedies
shadow
most importantly you should do meditation and some yoga poses early in the morning and steam your face before sleeping....got it ?
Lilly
yess🤩 thank you so much shadow 😁☺️
shadow
go ahead Lilly....I always love you no matter what happens.....waiting to hear good news about your performance
* Lilly suddenly woke up....gasping for air...looks at the clock ...it is 2:30 in the morning
Lilly
oh my god....again that creepy guy in my dream ? who is he ? I didn't remember his face and voice ....what I remember is only his crazy talks....
Lilly
why am I like this .....may be it is because of my age I am getting such dreams 🤔 ah...forget it...I should wake up early and should not skip my breaky
mom

Lilly

Lilly
I don't want to spoil their albums 😣😞
yuna
aaah....common Lilly....why you are underestimating yourself.....you can do this ...
yuna
if anyone throws a mean comment I will beat them up to the death....I will protect you buddy....
yuna
but why you are thinking like that.....I know you can dance well....why you are anticipating the wrong things
yuna
just calm down....go to your house...close your eyes....relax and think of the probabilities of your success.....don't overthink negatively...ok
Lilly
Hmm....ok if you say so....I will try ....but don't come to conclusion that I am gonna dance....let me think
* she slept while thinking
* after few hours....alarm buzzed .....she wokeup
Lilly
sleepy face messy hair.....scratching her head like a monkey
# lilly's monologue
so surprising...I did not dreamt of that creepy guy.....ahh...whatever... it's proved....those dreams are common for girls of my age ....
*she sees her brother doing workouts and remembered about the dream
Lilly
aghhh.....why am I thinking about him and that dream when I decided to quit dance 😒 ugh....whatever ...I will just forget it
Lilly
but how should I convince Yuna ....she will surely get upset 😞
* Lilly gets ready to go to college
