The Nun Story

It was not before many million years in history nor countable number of years, merely few seasons back in her life, she posed like a nun, in front of the mirror. She enjoyed the posture and whispered herself, ‘this is really sexy’. Many years before that solo mirror show, precisely six years back, during the plus two time, she knew men were attracted to nuns more than the famous actresses on the screen. Reena, the naughtiest of her friends, had advised her to keep the secret to herself. It is not the wide-open sexy dresses of western or eastern movies attracted the real strong men. It was the nun dress. This was an international secret. Maybe the secret hidden behind was more attractive. At the age of sixteen, she thought the nun dress would be unique and keeping that secret makes her sexier and more intelligent than her classmates. 

True calling of her life struck; when she walked through the rectangular corridors of uncertainty in the  renovated convent opposite to the enlightened benediction monastery built in the 18^th century. The convent room was big enough for her and the protector Sister Florina. It was easy for her to decide on the calling of life at the age of ten. When she walked and talked about her decision to her school friends, everyone was shocked at her courage. Tom was the first person challenged her decision. “See, it’s not like football my dear.” He said. She recalled sentiments of her classmates. Most of them were either surprised or in shock. Remy teacher appreciated every single damn activity of every single student in the school. The vibrant Remy teacher never vibrated in the same calibration after hearing her decision. Her vibrations stopped for many days. One day, teacher said, “You are too young to decide. After all, nobody can decide at the age of ten. Things change. Nothing in the world is permanent.” Remy teacher patted on her hair and setup a personal conversation to clarify the divine calling. Finally, the teacher nailed down her reasoning. Sister Florina had  great teeth. "Sister’s teeth shine while speaking." She was living with Sister Florina in the same convent as she started her life there. She lived with care takers for five years. The unexpected death of her care takers brought her to Sister Florina’s custody. Custodial rituals were never boring. Sister Florina taught her prayers of teeth, prayers of food, prayers of beauty, prayers of fearless sleep, prayers of health. Her teeth were not as uniform as Sister’s. Above all, Sister’s teeth shines. Those were the daily prayers. The huge laughter of Remy teacher after hearing the reasoning of her divine call changed the destiny immediately. “Oh, My Dear… Oh My Dear… Oh my dear Selina you be a Dentist; a doctor, Dentist. Selina, My Darling, then you repair every tooth on the planet. Being a nun is not all that safe these days. Not only that, it is very tough life there Selina.”  Selina giggled after remembering the nun episode and life’s calling at the age of ten.

Now, the digital dentist certificate shines in her hand on the mobile screen, drops of her tears drizzled freely and the smile could not wait long to wipe it out from her cheeks sideways without wetting the digital certificate. She consoled herself, “Ah... after all it’s digital... no worries.”
