Week 11 Story: Dear Diary- Sita's Secrets
Oh my goodness, I have never in my life met someone so awful and evil. Just talking about her makes my blood boil. I can't believe how I use to be best friends with her and how she would turn around and do all these awful things to me. She knew I have liked Rama since the 6th grade and here she is falling in love with my childhood crush! She thought she could waltz on in with her perfect skin, nails and hair and have Rama immediately fall in love with her! I remember we were wondering in the hallway like any other day since Rama's exile when we saw a poor girl on the ground. Rama, Lakshama and I approached her cautiously. Rama approached her and tried to help her up but I pulled his arm back after I saw it was her. We didn't know who it was at first and we were just trying to help. Now I am a very nice person but after everything she has done to me I really do not want anything to do with her. She immediately got up with her long shiny perfect hair and looked straight at Rama. Rama said something that I didn't hear and started to shake his head at her. Immediately her face dropped. I don't know what Rama said but whatever it was really shocked her! She then looked straight at me with such an evil look. Thinking back just makes my blood boil! It didn't take much to put the pieces together to figure out what had been said! I held my composure and didn't start screaming in the middle of the hallway but I was livid to say the least. I don't know what happened to Surpanakha and who she thinks she is. I know she is keeps coming after my man and she needs to stay away! If I ever see here again I can't promise I will be able to keep it together!

Author's Note
I wrote a short story in a novel style about Sita. I used Surpanakha and how she tried to steal Rama in my story. This novel really lets the reader see exactly how Sita feels and her thoughts. The reader can see that Sita cares a lot about Rama. Sita's thoughts are my own but I tried to make it evident to the reader just how manipulative Surpanakha is.
Hi Sarah! Wow I did a very similar version of this concept on my blog and am adding it to my storybook! I love that you made it a bit modern day with classrooms and childhood crushes. I love this idea so much! I like that you gave Sita and Surpanakha a relationship rather than them being strangers, this seems to strengthen the reason of hatred further.
ReplyDeleteHi Sarah!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed your story! I like how it's a diary because it feels like you're there and seeing what's going on. I feel like it's my own thoughts! I also like how there was a little bit of backstory in there and why there was a hatred for Surpanakha. It tied in well together!
Hello Sarah, great job on your story! I think it was very clever to make Sita and Surpanakha former best friends, but now I want to hear the story of how they stopped being friends. Sita’s specific emotions and dialogue in this story might have been created by you, but they are definitely in line with who she is as a person.
