A pearl

In the blink of eye months passed and she got used to the routine , except for the disgusting seniors and domineering class head. She felt often that she was quite missfit. School was situated in the center of the the two towns and she was not a resident of any of them.

So, she was living like an outcast.

She learned her lessons at school and played at home with her brother. She was close to her older brother and younger brother.

She couldn't learn to be with girls because they were manipulative and scheming. To her, school was a learning spot. She wanted to be a good citizen so she kept distance.

The prejudice of the groups of towns could not accept people like her, she shone brighter than them. She was "Sili" she had no reason to change herself.

"Why must I do things to make them happy . I am "me" and I can live on my own. I'll find out what I am capable of." She spoke to wind.

"Yes. There is no need to be an idiot to make friends. Once you found your pearl You would be distinguished and You would get good companions too." whispered the wind.

No one could see them talk.

"Wait. You said pearl, what is it? Where is it?" She touched her body.

"haha. No, You can't find it like this .It will take time, concentration and hardwork to obtain one. Pearl will bring you purity, honesty & integrity, dignity and calm." Wind caressed her hair.

"How can I find it? " she was curious it find the unseen pearl.

"Precious pearls can only be found in the depth of the ocean. Not everyone can touch them. They are in deep waters, hidden in the Shells." Whispered and shook the branches of the trees, leaves fell on the ground.

"But you said ocean. I'm not ocean and I don't have a shell." Said Sili. She picked plenty of the leaves and observed their shapes.

"Life is the ocean and your heart is the shell. Span of life, emotions and tears will harbour your pearl. The quality is your responsibility. Cheap or precious, the choice is yours. But remember people never preserve the cheap pearls, They get rid of them ." Said wind and disappeared swiftly.

"I have to suffer to be good and I have to bear the pain to be precious." She placed her hand on her heart.

"I'll take care of you. You are not cheap."
