The Haunting past

"piggy, piggy "(chuckle, laughter) "oi pumpkin"

"Please let me go please"(whining)

It was an abandoned hallway in the darkness, only three or four faces were barely visible. Some girls and boys are drawing on Kuhu's face, she is resting on her knees and hands. Another girl is sitting on her back and holding her and holding her like an animal.

"This and that's fine! Oh my kuhu just look at the mirror you are a real pig now". (Laughter)

"You are very lonely right because you are half pig and half human. No problem now we have painted your face like a pig now you can make friends in your clan "

"Please, I just did what I wanted to do. But how did it offend you.?"

"Oh! You did what you were doing and we are doing our desire. Now sit and watch. Suri take off your socks. You like chocolates right Piggy. Let's do our best to treat you ."

That girl dipped the socks into melted chocolate and pressed those. In kuhu's mouth.

"Urgh,uhhh"

Kuhu threw up on the bedside floor and started crying. Why does this dream come again after haunting me a whole year I thought it might have gone totally. Maybe because I met Kitty yesterday the past that froze a long time ago was shattered a little.

"Kuhu! What again." Kuhu's father came running from downstairs.

"Oh, my sweetie. Calm down a little. I thought it was finally gone."

"Me too."

"What happened? Is the new school tough for you? Or did someone bully you again !"

"No Dad, it is far better than the previous one. I made friends there. Also, the teachers are good and praised my singing "

"I see what a relief. Maybe because you ate too much spicy food. Now stop crying and come down after taking medicine. Dad will make a light breakfast for you."

Kuhu headed to school after having breakfast. Many thoughts were lingering in her mind. Another new day and another bunch of events would they ever accept her as their equal?

Our school really has the most boring lunch ever. That colour less spice less food disgusts me."

"Let your nose down a little madam Some girls like us crave the food that we get every day."

Jully pinched her ears and made a cute bunny face.

"Sorry miss, forgive my sins. See am I not a cute little bunny."

"Ok ok, how about a jumbo-size ice cream after lunch."

"That's why I eat here my sweetie."

Some voices reach out to them from behind.

"Looks like some pigs never get full even if they stuff their mouth with endless food.'

"Right and pigs like them can even sing these days."

Again these teasing and insults, though she was ready for things like that still irritate her. But now she will not step back anymore.

"You know Jully some vultures will remain too hungry to pick on others' food even after having their fullest."

Julie started to laugh so hard that the girls felt ashamed of their doing.

"How dare this girl try to pick on us."

When they both picked their food one of them came forward and pushed Kuhu's dish and the whole curry got smashed in her dress.

That day Kuhu sunk in the deep sea of overthinking again. While returning home she lay her hands in the window side and rested her head over that. She was so numb that the driver also asked him if he should drop her at the ice cream store. But she refused and said that she wanted to go home immediately. 

When she entered the drawing room it was empty. Her father was not home that day. She changed, got fresh, and poured some water into the glass. She was so lost that she didn't realize that the glass was overflowing. 

A drop of water reached her leg and thumb. She realized what a mess she made. No her life is already a mess it can't be messed up more. 

It was raining outside when the room started feeling that the room turned into a dark room where she got bullied. 

It was her 9th birthday when a new boy came to their class. She wasn't used to being that shy nature then. He looks exactly like the prince doll in her showcase. She was giving chocolate to everyone on her birthday. No, she did nothing else to the boy her only sin was to stick a pink card in the chocolate where a line was written "my favorite one for the prince". And turned out to be a reason for her bullying. She came out of her thoughts and stood in front of the mirror. The present seems like a shadow of her past, there is no difference.

(How would you feel if you were in Kuhu's place? So stop bullying and try to become yourself. Rather than feeling mighty by insulting others)
