1 I want to learn from you

"You know what, I always used to think that I can never shine like the royals in my whole life but turns out that I was never willing to shine. I only used to admire it from far imagining if I was at their position then I also might shine brightly as them but I never thought that to shine brightly you need to burn yourself. I never thought that the shine outside was created from the burning in inside. I used to look at their shine and compare it to my shine, Then look down upon myself being frustrated. But I forgot that it doesn't matter how much you shine but it matters the way you shine. No matter how much you try to shine like others you cannot be at their place and they cannot be at your place. I almost forgot that I cannot shine brighter unless I shine my way being myself. But Someone said me once,"Never look down upon you because you may not know your worth until you unlock it". That person is...no was very close to me,"said twinkle.

" So, Who was that person? and How did you became one of the stars of royalty?"shiny asked. "It's a long story"said twinkle. "But I want to listen and learn from you"said shiny." I want to learn from you?, It's been a long time, I haven't been asked this. Well my actual story started from this line only.Okay, then let me tell you about the naughty, workless and lazy twinkle who always used to run away from situations."

It was now evening on the earth and just morning for us as our day was just started and we had to go to sky and shine the whole day. We need to do a lot of hard work to absorb the Sun rays and send it to the earth but I don't used to like to do it because I used to find it very difficult and didn't enjoy doing it. However, it was for our good so that we could shine brightly in the coming days and earn our living. Those practices were necessary for the Exam. As I grew up the level of exam and studies grew more and more.

"Twinkle, twinkle, my little star, how I wonder what you are, up above the world so high , you have to shine like a diamond in the sky. Come on my dear , wake up. It's time. Hurry up dear",my mom said. She daily used to sing that song to wake me up and even now also. "Come on mom, 5 minutes more",I said in my sleep. "Twinkle! wake up otherwise you will be late again and blame me that I didn't woke you up, your five minutes will never complete",said my mom who was preparing to go for work. "I will go to work now, bye bye",said my dad. "Twinkle, I am also going for work now and have your breakfast properly. Your dad specially made your favorite meteor dish today and also don't get late for your work. bye bye" my mom said In a hurry.

After a long time when I woke up, I was again late as always."oh no! it's again late,

my boss will again scold me, I have to get in time"I said to myself. I ran in a hurry with my bag in hand and my breakfast in my mouth. I didn't want to get scolded so I chose the shortcut way which I hadn't used for a while. I was running in my fastest speed and someone was coming my way in his calm and steady form. He was shining much more better than me when the sun rays were being absorbed into him. His shine hit my eyes and we collided. "you little monster! can't you see" he said in frustration. "It may be my mistake, but can't you talk politely? You bastard"I said being angry like I will blast at a once. "Why do you expect others to talk politely to you if you can't?"he shouted. "you..." I said. But he left suddenly with a stressed and calm express suddenly after something triggered his mind. "My bad luck that I jumped into person like you, see you never" I mumbled but he didn't turn back and went in to own way. But I never expected that i would meet that person again. I went to my work and believe me I was scared to death that my boss may fire me but something else was waiting for me.

I arrived at work with my flickering shine and shivering body of tiredness after running continuously for a long distance.

When I reached there I was relieved but more surprised to know that our boss who used to arrive before time and scold us to death if we were ever late was late herself. Later, boss arrived. Basically, she always used to have terrible expression as she will eat someone but this time she also had a horrifying worried expression. For the first time she didn't scold anyone while entering the office. We were all surprised but more curious about what was happening. She said," All of you start to work, now it's night on the earth and sky has already become dark to let you shine. Do your best",she said in very tensed way encouraging us.

shirky( one of my colleague ) announced,

"Twinkle! boss is calling you to her cabin, come with me". I was afraid that she would be scolding me right after she sees me because I was again late but it amazingly surprised me that she didn't scolded me and didn't even talked about me being late.

She said,"Twinkle, Shirky , now it's time for you people to really show up your potential. You may know that 'The Stars of Royalty' has three members. Shirky shouted in excitement,"The Royals! oh i know them. All of them are very awesome and have the most brightest, charming and unique shine. No one can really replace them, They are the best". "Someone has to replace one of them", boss said being very confident. "What...?", Shirky asked in a shocking way. Boss said"Yes! He is selected for meteor...". Shirky interrupted,"What?,and do you mean Sparky by 'he' ?and he is selected for it. Boss said,"yes! so one of you have to replace him and carry the responsibility of the Royals being successor of Sparky. And also it's not easy to get the position as it is one of 'The Royals'. You all have to work hard for it and remember you have to get the shine and charm to be the brightest. I know it's difficult but it is necessary. So, Work hard and train yourself for it from today onwards because the selection will be held next month. Good luck". I said to boss being extremely confused,"But, boss I don't think I can do it. You know how bad I shine. I will not participate in this. Sorry!". Shirky said,"yes! of course, Who can expect you to be in place of on of the royals? You and the royals, huh..., yeah! and you are taking right decision. It's better to drop out of competition rather than being insulted after rejection. And every star has the aspiration to learn from the royals but if you got the position by chance also, no one will want to learn from you, huh..". I said to boss," Yes! she's right. None of the stars would want to learn from me. I'll drop out of the competition". Suddenly an unknown and confident voice said," I want to learn from you".
