..A Lifeless Butterfly..





..A lifeless butterfly..
English Half-yearly Examination..And Im not at all concerned about some topics and lessons which I left..but about a butterfly....I wonder why...

I was standing with my friends..when Pooja came and tried scaring me with a butterfly..I thought it was a trick and stuff..but it took quite a time filled with arguments for me to realize that it was a real one..and it was dead now..it was in trisha's hand next I remember..teacher came...and our paper got started..she dumped it on a window pane hurridly..it was towards my seat ka side.....

I was over with my exam and stuff..very early..3 hours paper..took me 1 and a half I suppose..then my eyes turned towards the butterfly..I just didnt like the scenario..even though she was dead..bright sunlight mein exposed like that..I just felt weird..and god knows who gave me that courage..that i walked up till the teacher and asked whether I could take the butterfly or not..she said that if its alive leave her..I said shes not..and picked her up very carefully and kept it on my seat..I was horrified to see the nearby sitting students ka reactions..it took me some more time to adjust with those reactions....

I had made up my mind the very same time..to burry the butterfly somewhere..to pray during the same so that may god bless her soul..god knows what must have had happened to poor female..half of the guys and girls who know the same..specially the burying part..still think that Im mad...ok fine..if tomorrow I leave your body on the road..no one comes to claim your body..your exposed into bright sunlight..ready to be someones food..very soon..??..isnt that really the same..???..huh..?..then its painful..then its humiliating..but just because shes a butterfly..and shes dead now..you wont respect her corpse..??..she might not be your dear one..but she might be of someone..??..but now shes no more.......

I still cant forget those facial expressions..those words which were thrown on me regarding the same..mom also..gave me a nice nice nice lecture on what the hell was I up too....?!?!?
Some friends say..preserve it..infact most of them said..hardly 1 or 2 supported me..in my decision..I asked why should I and some others drive pleasure of someones death..??..who gave us that right..???..they didnt say a word...

I still have that butterfly..I just look at her..at times..and I dont know...I just get lost somewhere..in some world..

Ill bury her soon somewhere...just waiting for the right day......

But this chapter of life showed me another side of human behaviour...the inhuman behaviour..the heartless feelings....the...............
