The next day, I left school immediately after the class. I reached dance class by 4:45 pm. This time there was no one in the dance hall except for Riya mam. She asked me what made me to learn bharathanatiyam. I told that it’s my parents will. She said “It’s good, but soon it will be your will!”. She told me you cannot practice natiyam in trouser ant shirt. She told me to wear the recommended dress for practicing natiyam. She told “Today, its ok and tomorrow u need to buy new pyjamas and pant. i said ok..
next we purched dance dress and i came with class. When I reached dance hall, the other students were there. They giggled seeing me in such dress and i am looking different. They didn’t asked me about dress since the strict teacher was with us. She started the class by teaching about the importance of steps .The class was over by 6 pm. almost one month over and continioulsy i am going to class and another he stoped to come dance class. my behavier is changed little bit . Now i am studying in 11 th staandard and its co-ed school. I did not look much of a boy. Many teachers and boys are telling me that " your beahaving girl beacuse i wil not speak with anyone and even i feel shy for everything.so assumed I was a girl. some people make me fun of me so that time my brother will come and recuse me. My little brother is my bodygaurd. some time my teachers used to make fun but i will not care about anything. one day i went to class but know one is there. then i searched otherside guru and students are cleaning the garden. riya mam asked me to help her. After that she asked us to sit and told us 'Next week my friends and my guru's coming here so i was having some idea and i planning to conduct one program infront them. You all need to practice well and perfrom infront of them and who all are performing well and mibt be they will get chance to perform in stages and they will help you. Everyone became very happy and screamed .
I am the only boy in the natyam academy. Before asking me , I started to leave as soon as it was completed but Riya mam holded me by hand and said that I’m not completed. she took me in to her room and showed
some male dancers photos and asking me to look the photos. i said all are looking good mam , shall i leave mam. she said wait. I asked her what else is to be done and she spoke nothing but opened a box and took something. She opened it and I realized that it was mascara (kajal). I resisted a bit but she forcefully rimmed both my eyes with mascara.She used eyebrow pencils and curved my eyebrow shape like dancers. She completed with a black bindi in the center of my eyebrows. She opened another drawer and took a pair of clip-on jhumkas. I felt my ears heavy when she clipped it to my ears. she asked me to look mirror, while seeing me i am looking different again she told me that tomorrow onwards you need to practice like this, i dont know what to say and without saying anything i came to home. before coming home i have washed my face and removed my bindi.
