Guardian Angel

Standing in front of the mirror,I saw an average height 15 years old Nisha. I don't know mum,it feels like I am mostly bullied because I have a different feature,or is it wrong?I asked. Well, I don't think so, I think you should let go of the bullies, My mum encouraged, as she handed the bag to me. Don't be late, good bye, she bade as I left for the bus. 15 years old mummy's pet is beginning to get into someone's brain,Vidya muttered, giggling with her friends,Nella and Camille.Must you always look for means to insult Nisha, Oliver cut in with a sharp tone, putting Vidya's giggle to a halt. The bus halted, and we all came out. Hi,I am Oliver,it's my third day in this school, and I really like your personality, can we be friends? He asked. Nice meeting you, Oliver, I replied, alighting the bus. As I walked past Campbell's hall, I felt so shy, so timid, that I really needed to use the bathroom. I staired at myself in the mirror with sheer anger, and wondered why I was created like that. In the blink of an eye,I felt a kind of sharp pain like a pinch on my left arm. I looked at my left arm and saw a sign like an "S", crossed with an "R" on my left arm. It was there, and after a few seconds, it was gone. I had series of questions going on in my head. What was that mark I had on my arm? Why was it there and it was gone? I came out of the bathroom, still trying to comprehend the questions going on in my head, when I bumped into Oliver. Hi Oliver, I am so sorry for putting on a grumpy attitude in the bus,and I am also ready to be your friend so are we good? I asked. It's fine, I'm heading towards the library to get some books,are you coming? Oliver asked. Sure, if there is one place I love going to the most, it's the library,let's go. I replied, and we headed towards the library.

After a long day at school, I went home in the bus, doubting if I should notify my mom on what happened in the bathroom or not. After series of thoughts, I finally decided to take the step and tell my mom. I got home, only to see the weirdest thing happening. Mum what are you doing in the kitchen?I asked. Cooking of course, it's what all mum's do you know, She replied. What about Aunt May? I asked. I felt like preparing the meals, so I gave her the week off, She replied. Anyways mum, the strangest thing thing happened today in school. I was using the restroom when I saw a blue mark on my arm, it was there and after a few seconds,it was gone. Do you perhaps know where I can get a vivid explanation for this? I asked. Nisha, I can't still believe that at 15, you still have a very vivid imagination, My mum replied laughing in a very annoying way. Mum, it's not my imagination ok, it really happened. I said in annoyance. Okay, enough of this discussion, we are going to see the doctor tomorrow, my mum answered, slicing the last piece of carrot. You know what? I am not going to see any doctor tomorrow, I don't even know why I am having this conversation with you, because you have never believed me and you will never believe me. What kind of a mother are you? I am beginning to doubt if you are truly my mom, I said, storming out of the kitchen. I went directly to my room and changed into some regular clothes and sat on the sofa, next to my bed. I held the sofa so tight and with much aggression, and I saw the sofa freezing from the left,and burning from the right. I stood up with great speed and ran as fast as possible to call my mom, maybe if she sees an evidence, she would finally believe me. Mum, quick, there is something I have to show you, please come, I said pulling her towards the direction of my room, and not paying attention to the fact that she was crying. No Nisha, I have something important to discuss with you, she said pulling her hands back. She offered me her seat and went towards the fireplace. She brought out all the wood, as there was no fire in the fireplace. She opened a small cage, and brought out a scroll, tied with a blue ribbon. She returned the woods and handed me the scroll. This my dear, is the answers to all your questions, but you must only open it on the 12th full moon of this year, she warned. I stood up without saying a word, because I had series of questions going on in my head, and I was too tired to comprehend any of them. I kept the scroll in my bag, and went to bed just after eating the fried rice my mom prepared.
