......................

...an unusually quite day...

The day was gloomy filled after the fresh exam results the festive cheer was lost among those grades no body could speak with out shaking thinking just what have they done in the exams to get such marks

The toppers were quite scared they had good marks but that didn't make up for the disappointment they faced with the humiliation the teachers gave because they didn't passed the usual expectations

Aishu sat with her friends discussing what could be wrong in her answers or what is correct, this was such a nuance to get back home to

Aishu wasn't the topper she was an average student with her usual 80% marks, but that wasn't good at all

Having left each and every thing she loved she wanted to focus on studies but if only that happened getting no inspiration she walked out to the corridor for a walk

These days I wonder how will I make everything up the upcoming exams I'll have to practice hard for those I can't lose any chances in exceeding this time maybe I should go back its almost time for the next class

Walking back she slid into her seat greeting her bestie and bench mate

" Hello there mehak" aishu spoke trying not to let the gloomy atmosphere get to her

" Hey there ash, sup" mehak getting along the plan greeted back with not much enthusiasm

" What are you guys up to ? " Diksha their another bestie chimed up

" Nothing I'm just wondering where will we go this year as our class 9 outgoing" aishu voiced her thought

" I heard we are going to Bangalore? " Diksha said uncertainty lingering in her voice

The click of shoes on the floor caught everyone's attention as they all quieted down seeing their teacher walk into the class, after the greetings they sat down talking no more

" Students I know you all are very upset about this year's marks but no worries just so you all know your outgoing place is selected!!! " The teacher shouted masking an excited look on her face trying to cheer everyone up but if only…....

" Well go to Bangalore".....

" Or we'll go to Rajasthan.....?"

" Pune maybe ?..... Oh! that will be so much fun to go to yk" .......

There was an uncertain amount of whispers going around the class

" Oh, quiet down all if you, let me complete my talk first" the teacher snapped when everyone had diverted their still attention

" This year we plan to take you all out, out of the country to Italy.!" the teacher spoke out loud and clear

Italy .... Oh! what a dream to visit...

The whispers went loud and much more as the students talked among themselves now excited Italy sounded very much of a dream somehow

" You heard that we are going to Italy...."

" I'll bring my pet to the trip too ..."

" Where else would we visit ?..."

" My grandma's there "." oh shut it I visited your grandma last month and please she is just next to your house stop your lies ...."

Aishu and her two besties could hardly contain their own excitement as soon as the news hitted their ears damnnn Italy

They chatted among themselves too it was late that day when aishu reached back home, reaching back she freshened up getting ready for her meals

" So how was your day siddhi (aishu's nickname)" mom smiled across the room serving the food

" Well enough mama" aishu called back unable to meet her eyes

" What happened tho, your papers were due today right? " Mom's eyes were cold despite the love in them, they were hallow

" Uhm yeah.... Ig ...." aishu was unsure what to reply to

" I'm sure you would have done good" mom was reassuring herself more like

" Not really...... It was ig ok" aishu felt the room silent

" What ok? How much did you even get ! Is it all that you are capable of, oh such a useless child !!!" mom's words rang in aishu's ears they were the same as of every time yet so they hurt as if of new

" I-i..... Here are the papers" aishu shoved the paper on the table returning to their shared bedroom with her parents

" And where do you think you are going huh, come back here, and these marks they should burn in the stove so should you, you ....." those words faded into the back ground noise as aishu slammed the door shut

She felt nothing of it this always happened, and she never knows why she does the same mistake too maybe if so she cared about the studies she would have gotten a much better mark but 80% isint it good enough? .....

She never figured out .....
