Shalini-The Ice Princess!

"Is this supposed to be a joke???" said Amit on hearing about Shalini's accident!" "You are kidding me1 Man! Shalini is the best ice skater in this college...how in the world can she get hurt?" Vani stood there shaking...not knowing how to respond to Amit! She too knew all this..however...She knew the truth too...which was that Shalini had lost both her legs ..!!

Shalini was a graceful Ice skater...She made everything around look so still when she took to the skating ring..it seemed as if Ice was her playground where she lost all her inhibitions and transformed into a beautiful diva...Every turn and twist would make the audiences' heart skip a beat!
nnnnnnnnnnnnn------sssssssssssssssss.......shuuuuuuuuu...up...up..up..round........up in the air ...and then ..thud.....perfect landing..and a perfect applause!

Shalini was used to this appreciation..this was her life..She loved this life more than anything else..She loved the attention, the perfection..just about everything..but most importantly she loved..herself in that state..purely amalagamated with herself..totally pure.....

But then one day, when she was rolling up in the air...something crossed her mind.." of course..you can't go to this college of skating..what do you think You are gonna do with this sort of degree..?? you are in India..and this skating n all is good for entertainment..not for a decent living here...prepare for MBA or something like that...make a living!We do not want you to be mocked at!have i made myself clear???".."Yes sir", said she lost in oblivion and then................................

thuddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd....................................
Gassssssppppppppppp!!
Silence!!!!!!!

Silence was broken by the sudden sound of a ambulance.She was lying there..right there...STIll....absolutely STILL!

To be Continued............
