The Black Skin Girl episode 4
Nora POV (cont’d)
Mitchell!!… I almost scre-med
so this rude girl is Mitchell… gosh how am I going to cope with her
*****
all of a sudden, something dropped in me to stare at her from head to toe and that’s when I noticed she is so stunning and gorgeous, her looks alone almost intimidate me but I can’t be frightened now …I have my aims high, she might be the best but there is definitely overtaking am going to overtake, I don’t care if she is gorgeous than me…the fact remains that she is not me and am not her, mr Charles trust in me and that alone boost my confidence. I won’t let him or my mom and even Mira…I won’t let them down
******
hey you…what the hell are you doing here…Mitchell yelled and everyone turn to look at me
oh god …this girl can create scene, I thought mr Charles is a disciplinarian , how he has this nuisance called Mitchell in his class…oh god just help , I said in,side of me
******
Mitchell calm down, she is the new student approved by mr Charles.. miss Ella said
gosh , this two are both despicable, they both irritates me
******
But miss Ella.. this girl can’t be in this class…she is too dark and ugly.. Mitchell said and some people started laughing while some murmured but within me…I knew I have to say something, I have to stand up for myself .
models are really special not only in terms of career but life style.. they reveals beauty to the world..i said within me as I decided to speak up
*****
i walk up straight to her …
look Mitchell, it seems you don’t get the fact I made earlier to u…
though am black but am not responsible for my colour, and also I can’t question nature but do u know …being black makes me unique and my uniqueness is what makes me difference, you might be better than me now but trust me, you can never be me..and also being a model can just be a fashion show for you or just a career but to..its a life …a life of experience and making impact…as a model not only to the world but one day I shall be a model star that illuminate everywhere… so don’t u ever call me ugly names, because you are better that me but just for yourself…I said all this , not knowing that mr Charles was watching me and the moment I finished , everywhere was silent at first then I heard mr Charles clapping and then gradually some people joined.
*******
wow!! Nora that was a fantastic speech…that was really excellent and do u know what…am not going to choose between you and Mitchell again but rather I have made my decision that you are the one..mr Charles said and I was so happy, my eyes went to Mitchell and her reaction wasn’t good at all , she wished she could change mr Charles decision but its impossible… then she ran out in tears and also followed by miss Ella, gosh that woman is something else, but no matter what am not going to be easy with her.
******
After rehearsal , all I want to do was to share my joy with Mira, I just can’t wait to tell her every that happened in the class.
*****
As I was still packing my bags..I felt someone tapping me..then I turned ,it was Bianca
****
hey..I said
hi Nora.. she said
so what’s up…I asked
nothing much , I just want to say thank you..she said
thank you for what??I asked
thank you for making me realize my self today, that I am special , though you might not know but your speech to Mitchell today really changed me, before I used to think that Mitchell is better than me but then after your speech today, I realize that I am the best in my own way…so thank you..she said and hugged me, but I was still surprised ,I never knew my speech made so much impact but its good to let people know they are indeed special and not to compare themselves to anyone…and also all thanks to Mira for this… she made me know this and I will forever be grateful to her.
Mira POV
Today’s class was so great for me, I can’t believe James harry chose me to go with for his upcoming New york musical concert.
oh god..I have to start preparing now, singing in front of multitude audience is not an easy task but then I believe in one thing , which is “to be always confident”, I just can’t wait to tell Nora all about it.
Nora POV
I was anxiously waiting for Mira to come out of her class…
immediately she came out , I ran straight to meet her
*****
Bestie guess what!! we both say at the same time and laughed.
****

********
After the wh0le day stuff , I got home to relax …getting to the entrance of the door , I saw Sarah..oh god..drama queen , why is she back so quick , I thought her Thursday class always close late, why is she here now….
I was murmuring when I heard her voice
*****
Nora…hold on…
I turned and just look at her, I wonder what’s so important that she couldn’t just wait for us to enter in,side..
I stood there at the entrance waiting for her
****
so what!!! I asked not even minding that she was smiling, but who is smiling at her
guess what!! Sarah said
what !! I replied sternly
JACE MIKE is coming to New York upcoming model show together with his girlfriend DEMI…Sarah said and I was so shocked
Jace and Demi are coming to New York model pageant… are u for real…I said to Sarah holding her
yes ..they are…but jace is not contesting, is only Demi that will be contesting, I heard for some previous years, she has always won the Miss New York pageant….Sarah said and that moment i became freeze, I never knew that the New York model pageant mr Charles was talking about, also involves Demi…I thought it will be the USA world model pageant that will involve their two….oh god
******
Nora , Nora …are u OK…you look lost..Sarah said and tap me

I was about calling Mira when the door bell rang, within me I knew it was her she always come at the right time.

********
its another day for training , Mr Charles had called me earlier today that he called some artist to measure and take my length in order to get my dresses ready and also i will be doing some photo shoot today with make up on me
******
when I got to the hall, I saw everyone so busy..bianca is already getting her measurement , and then I saw Mitchell, she was also measuring, but I wonder if there had been any change .
******
oh thank god you are here…Mr Charles said taking my hands and straight to a tall white guy..from his looks alone you will know he is a fashion designer ..
****
sir..am wondering.. has there been any change..is Mitchell.. I was still talking when mr Charles cut me shot…
no no…Mitchell is not going with you , she is going for a neighborhood model pageant…our group was chosen as one of the contestants, so I decided she should go for that one to avoid troubles…mr Charles said and my mind was relaxed
******.
the designer took my measurement, then I was beautifully make up…
I can’t believe this is me…
I mean am I Nora?…
we took several shots and with different dresses and with different styles or position…. it was so stressful day but was fun filled , but the feeling of the main day almost make me freak out but then I remember Mira words””everything will be OK””
in the next few weeks I and bianca will be travelling to the model resort center where all the models will be prepare for the D_day… I will so miss my Bestie, I wish she could follow me..but I guess we’ve come to a time in life..where our heart will only beats for each other even if we are not seeing each other face to face.
