NOVEL NEXT Trap For The Prey
After big sis's words of approval and warning, I felt really happy that she accepts me as a whole, so from now I will not hide these things from her and just tell her straightforward about it while getting her help to accomplish some of the tasks just like she asked me because even after her saying all that stuff and I still don't comply by her wishes would be same as doubting that big sis can't do stuff like this or doubting big sis directly and in the past I made promise with myself to never doubt her again.
We reached school and people started greeting me, "Good morning miss president".
"Nice day today miss president".
"Miss president you look beautiful like always".
and many more students came and greeted me, inside me, I felt that these bastards sure act all cheerful first thing in the morning but I can't show that outside and at first I have felt that big sis would get jealous of me because of my popularity but soon I found out that's not the case as on the contrary, she enjoys seeing me like this as due to this most of the attention which earlier went to her, now comes my way so she doesn't have to act all the times she's in school.
But I remember that I did doubt her even if little so just like I promised myself, during the night I went to the storehouse and picked up a hammer and hanged it over my left hands' pinky, at first I hesitated to do it but soon I realized that if I do things half-heartedly then what's the point of promises? I mean big sis keeps all of her promises and if I just bitch out like this then when something like happens again then I would bitch out the same way, so what does that say about my love and resolve for big sis?.
So I hardened myself and with high force brought down the hammer and the moment it made contact with my pinky, a *CRACK!* sound of bone came and blood started coming out of my nail and I remember saying, "FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKKK!" at the top of my lungs and just a moment later big sis came and started panicking and asking in a frightened voice, "Mayuri, what the fuck did you DO!?".
"AH! aha, ahahaaaha, fuck!, hahhaaha, BIG SIS!, I did it, I did it, I showed my resolve of how much I love you and treasure my promises with you!" I said with a big smile on my face while laughing from the bottom of my heart, I mean just LOOK! even though it hurts like a bitch but I still managed to do it and if this doesn't show my feelings for big sis then what does?.
"WHA!, wha-what are you talking about you stupid girl, quickly come with me to the hospital and you are in luck that father and mother are on a trip! and YOU! are going to tell me what's this all about YOU GOT IT!" she said with an angry face and seeing that I got even happier, I mean just look how much worried she was about me.
Then I told her about the promise and hearing this she had mixed expressions of happiness, anger, sadness, and told me to make another promise to never to things like this and to discard my self made promise, at first I was doubtful because if I discard it then how do I show my resolve but she slapped me on the face while crying and somehow I remember that it didn't hurt and I realized that by hurting myself, I have unintentionally hurt big sis more so I discarded my self made promise and when Mr. and Mrs. Jansha came back home big sis told them that I hurt my finger while hammering a nail on the wall to fix the clock.
This is an incident of when I started going to school for a month and now four years have passed since then, even though the finger is now healed but there is still a mark left to remind me to not hurt myself and I guess that's when just like big sis said her mind started to get fucked up but I don't get what's fucked up about it, I mean it's pretty normal stuff right? what's so strange about it? hmmmm? but maybe that's just me?.
Thinking about stuff like this I reached my classroom and everyone in the class came to greet me.
AHHHH! greeting every one of them with a smile and politeness is so hard, especially that boy and girl named Ankit Tiwari and Shana Singh respectively who keep on pestering me and disturbing me constantly as they sit in my front and back respectively.
But right now I have got my hands full with Abhi Sharma and those two haven't crossed the line yet but if big sis tells me she is bothered by them I will not leave them alone.
During the third period, I made an excuse of going to the toilet and went out of the classroom, then I made my way towards the locker of Abhi Sharma and opened it with a master's key, which you get as a student council president to check if students have anything illegal or bad in school in their lockers.
Then I took out a small dead mouse which I killed on Sunday and placed it inside his locker and left a note saying: Stay away from Mehak Jansha.
Then just like routine during recess, I went to check everyone's locker to see if they anything banned stored in them and when I opened Abhi Shamra locker, I made a surprised face and shouted for Abhi Sharma and students to come.
After everyone came and saw the dead mouse, Abhi Sharma was standing just beside his locker and had a fearful face seeing that inside I felt happy but outside I can't show it so I made a sympathetic face and asked him, "I am so sorry that in my watch something so disgusting like this happened and I-I don't know what to say" with tears forming in the corner of my eyes.
"N-No president it's not your fault!" he said with a panicked face.
AHHH this is it! show me more of those lovely faces.
Then to progress the play I asked everyone standing here, " NOW! LISTEN, EVERYONE! does anyone of you know who did it? and if the culprit is among you guys here then rest assured you will not be punished, and if anyone knows about the culprit then also don't show yourself and after school just come to my office whichever it is" in a loud and firm voice.
Then I called big sis in front, "Sister Mehak please come forward" to get some help from her.
Big sis came in front with a crying face and seeing that I got an urge to hug her but calm down me! now isn't the time for this and big sis is also acting pretty good.
"Sister Mehak, this matter isn't unrelated to you as you can see there's a note saying that whoever did this wants Abhi Sharma to stay away from you, so do you know why he wants that and do you have any idea who it maybe?" I asked with a smile and a welcoming expression.
Seeing that big sis also almost smiled but kept it hidden and tears started falling from her eyes, "I-I-don't why would someone do something, something so shameful like this, but I do have a g-guess of who may have done it" she said and started crying even more loudly.
Then I placed my hands on her shoulder and asked with a straight face, "Th-then who do you guess has done it?".
"U-Umm lately for a week there has been someone who's following me so I guess that person has done this" she said while crying even more and hugged me and continued saying, "NO! I am sure it's that person! I have been scared to tell anyone about it but now that things have come this far I just can't keep it in anymore".
Seeing this I beckoned her back and said, "Don't worry sister even though you should have told me sooner and I am a bit angry that you hid it but what's done is done, so today you will go home together with me and...." then I looked towards Abhi Sharma and went in front of him and asked him in a sorry voice, " Abhi again I am so sorry that this happened to you but I have a request for you, can you please accompany us two when we go home so that the stalker when he sees you tries to do something and during that moment I would capture. I know it's a heavy request after what you have just witnessed but can you do it for Mehak's sake?".
Hearing that it's for Mehak's sake and a girl saying she will protect him he probably got hurt as a man and with a confident face said, "YES! president don't worry I will accompany you and when that stalker comes I swear I beat the shit out of him!".
"Whoa, whoa now calm down but that's the spirit!" I said with a cheerful face and dispersed everyone gathered around and they started saying things like, "Whoa! president's so cool".
"Did you look at how effortlessly she handled the situation".
"I feel sorry for Ms. Mehak but it's so lucky of her to have a little sister like the president".
Hmmm seems like it went better than expected.
Then after school ended I went to my office to finish some council work and told Abhi Sharma to wait for some time and then from the door the student council secretary or my big sis came.
She got behind my chair and bent forward to hug me from behind who was sitting on the chair and said, "Dear, you act way too good, you should go into film industry".
"Thank you, sis but you were also pretty good even though you didn't know that I would call for your help" I said with a big smile on my face.
"Well, I was very happy when I saw that you listened to my words and just like I said called me for help so I also did my best" she said while shoving her face on my hair and while snuffing it she continued saying, "Now that you have caught him what will you do next?".
Well on the way to confront the stalker, I would be sure to give him a time of his life.
