Page 175- From Anah’s Biography

     It was the day, when Anah was eagerly waiting for her result to be announced.

     His brother entered the room with a newspaper in his hand and gave Anah a confusing look. She was numb, frozen and shocked of what his brother is going to announce. In a single glimpse her mother recognized his brother’s gesture. And played a trick with her.

     Before Anah could take the paper from his brother, her mother interrupted and abruptly snatched the paper and pretended she has failed but, in fact she had passed her exams with great percentage. She got nervous, and burst into tears, went to her room without checking the newspaper. 

     Her mother’s intentions were to surprise Anah with something she wasn’t expecting. In the evening her mother, organized a small surprise party and invited her few close friends too.

     Anah was unaware of her mother’s plan. She came out of her room, whipping her tears off, tried to look normal. However, as soon as she stepped in, the hall where her family members used to sit there was no one. She muttered, mom? But, there was no answer.  She goes further, bumped with a table and immediately settled herself. Her brother switched on the lights. Her friends, siblings’ parents congratulated her and cherished her with great love. Anah’s emotions were not in her control. She burst out crying, when everyone hugged her.

     Anah’s feelings were indescribable. She was happy to see her family and friends celebrating her success with such interest.

I have shared the current page of my life in this challenge. I've actually passed my exams with great percentage. And it's bit fictional. However, the feelings I shared in the challenge are true. Lol. I was numb actually when I was going to hear my result. And when I heard I passed the exams. I actually burst into tears.
