All For Nothing ? Or Not ?
#WritcoStoryPrompt110
Write a story about a moment when you were entirely absorbed in a certain activity. Moments that attracted you, for example.
.
So this is about the time when I was a child. About 10 to 11 years old. It was during teacher's day, that one day before all my class' girls were showing each other the cards they made to gift to the teachers the next day. Those were so beautifully decorated and designed. vivid colours with beautiful handwriting . I was so fascinated by them and also wanted to give it a try. when I went home that day, I spend half an hour only searching for some spare colourful sheets, sketch pens and Some shiny beads to stick on the card as I had seen on one of those girl's. luckily I found a white sheet. I folded into half and drew borders on them recalling what i had seen mixing all of the designs . I tried writing 'Happy Teachers Day' in my most graceful handwriting possible. Inside the card i filled it with all the good thoughts that came to my mind about my teachers and tried to make it as colourful as I could. I decorated it with some flower shaped beads that i had found and when it was finished I was just so happy that I can't described it in words . I looked at the clock and realised that I had been working on the present for 3 hours straight . I didn't even know when the time flew by. I went outside & showed my card to Mum to which she rewarded me with a peck on my cheek. I also showed it to my dad in the evening. I was just too much excited to show that to everyone in the School next day and when the day came..

I wasn't able to find my card!!!
I searched everywhere in my bag but it wasn't anywhere. tears started filling up my eyes as everyone was giving their presents & good wishes to the teachers and I wasn't having mine with me. when I got home I cried in my mums arms saying how bad I was feeling and asking her where she had kept my card if not in my bag. she was surprised to hear it and after calming me down asked me to bring my bag.
To my utter awe; she opened my Notebook and between of it there was my beautiful piece of art. Oh, how dumb I felt at that the movement and my mum laughed at me. I was so angry at myself that all of my work, my effort, all of it was for nothing ! seriously ?!
It was a mix of anger and sadness inside my heart that made tears welled up in my eyes again but my mother stopped me from crying . she said that - it would happen at times when your efforts won't show up in the time you expected but it Wouldn't hide the fact that you tried , you worked hard for it. So what if your work didn't show up at the time you wanted it to ; it will surely show up at the best of times when you never expected it to and will bring you twice the joy that was expected.. sometimes what you think is right timing may not be it but it will find its own way so don't lose heart - she told me to show it to my friends tomorrow and I did.
My world, everyone liked it!! All my friends praised me and my classmates appreciated me of the hard work .
I even gave it to my teacher apologizing for the fact that I wasn't able to give it to her the previous day because I couldn't find it but she accepted it with a warm and beautiful smile on her face . I was overjoyed that day and told all of it to my mum and dad. mum was right. I did get twice of the happiness and praise I had expected to get and be it or not, I was happy that It was only my card that day & everyone's focus was on it . They gave me their most appealing smiles . It was truly a nice and proud feeling!!
