{Midnight}
What's happening? People are doing whatever they wish with me without giving me any reason.
Jyothi: Because I look like a doll they can't play with me.
Okay there I'm joking I'm not that beautiful.
But one thing is for sure
Jyothi: I'm stuck in a dangerous game with no clue.
I spend the rest of the night tossing and turning. Atlast sleep hits me and I drift away in sleep.
{Morning in class}
Teacher: What's with your eyes?
Jyothi: What's with it?
I question her back while you hung my eyes to feel if anything is wrong.
Teacher: I can fill two sacks of rice in the pits of your eyes. What did you do to yourself ?
She asks my angrily like I did a big mistake.
Jyothi: I–I...
I look around the room searching for a reason, but nothing goes up my throat to tell her through my mouth.
Teacher: Look at me Jyothi.
She says wrigling her finger at me.
Teacher: Beauty is also a weapon here. Mainly in the games the royal play, don't lose it.
She pauses and looks deeply into my eyes. Her eyes her hollow devoid of anything.
Teacher: But I suggest you stay out of the game.
Jyothi: Why?
I ask immediately defensive. She made it sound like I'm weak for it.
Teacher: Your too young and naive to enter it.
Jyothi: Teacher please give me more information about it.
Teacher: I'm not in the position to do it Jyothi.
Jyothi: But–
She cuts me off in mid sentence.
Teacher: Enough.
She raises her hand in mid air and I know I must stop.
Teacher: As I was saying before, beauty is a weapon...*pause* it's also called seduction.
Jyothi: Seduction....
I say in a low voice under my breath. I breath in collecting all the distraction in my mind and exhale all of them out.
Now I'm ready.
Teacher: It's not as easy as you think.
She says with a challenging smile and I'm ready for the challenge.
I like I'm put in a boxing ring and being trained before my big match.
Teacher: Sway your hips in the right rythm.
Jyothi: That's easy.
I do a walk swaying my hips right to left then again doing the process till I teach the end of the room.
Jyothi: See I did it.
I say with a proud smile.
Teacher: Really?
She questions and walks towards me. Her hips sway like the lotus dancing to the rythm of the wind.
She walks so effortlessly it makes me like a jelly.
