An Examination!!!

As the clock striked 10 my heart started pumping fast.Everyone entered the exam hall,so did I.I kept praying ,”Oh God please question on virtual work should be optional,please,I will donate Rs. 100,I will pray to u everyday,I won’t do anything wrong”.The Examiner started distributing the paper,I kept gazing at the other benches.Finally I got the paper,I quickly turned the pages to check the questions.Everything looked good and easy and on the last page was this “MR. VIRTUAL WORK”.I was terrified but as soon as I turned the page,”Hurray” there was an option.I almost felt like dancing right there.I answered each and every question and completed the paper.I closed my copy and checked the time.”11:30″ ah I again checked.I saw the room.Everyone’s neck was down,buried in the paper and I was done.Something was surely wrong.I asked the Invigilator the time.He said 11:45AM.I reopened my copy and started looking at the paper again.I surely missed some questions.I checked and rechecked but nope everything was done.I again disturbed the Invigilator by asking the number of questions in the paper.He said with a harsh voice “Its written in the paper”.I gave a shippish smile,I felt like a fool.The room had silence all over.”Extra Sheet” someone shouted from the back.I wasn’t able to understand what on earth she wrote that she needed an extra copy? The main copy itself is of 44 pages,that even increased the pressure.I thought of writing some more in my copy and started writing whatever was possible,I made diagrams ,used black pen to mark.But it looked like the exam was not ready to end.Even the Invigilator started doubting me,he clearly said “NO” when I asked if I can go to drink water.His eyes were set on me,as if I was about to cheat,but only I knew what was the problem.12:15 PM I said to myself,its ok only 45 mins more.I thought of sleeping for a while,but how can you sleep when you see people writing tons of pages and not moving there heads out of the question paper.I was really scared and was totally convinced that I haven’t done well,I won’t get good marks.Everyone is writing so much and I am sitting here like a Donkey.All these thoughts kept revolving in my mind.At 12:45 I decided to keep faith in myself,checked if all the questions are answered correctly or not ,submitted the paper and left the exam room 15 min before the ending time with a smile of relief.
