I want to tell parents committee about As

I am sick of As's horrible attitude. I am working alone for this damn play which is for school, children and parents and she is deliberately creating cheap hurdles for me, why? If she so much dislikes the play she can tell me to stop it, no? Of course not; the enthusiasm of the parents and the children is brimming over and if anybody
tried to stop it they will explode like a bomb. I have decided that if I happen to meet Mtn in school, I will quickly tell him about this situation or if As says something to me I will outright question her what's her problem.

I had gotten late for the school. I gave up hopes of meeting Mtn as he usually comes early to drop his son. 'Perhaps God does not want me to take this action.' I concluded with a deep sigh. The very next instant who should be standing next to me but Mk's father...! Mk's elder son is the narrator in the play and because of the play his whole family is greatly in awe of me. Every time he or his wife meet me they are always full of my praises . And he is in Parent's committee, in fact he is something big thing in it.

I wavered for several minutes and then by way of formal conversation told him cursorily that As and the school in general were not supporting me. He was not shocked as I had assumed he would be. He told me he as well as many others were plainly noticing that I am not being supported and felt very sad for me. He said he would get in touch with the committee and together they all will try to exert pressure on As regarding this question.

I am relieved but can not help feeling bad in some corner of my heart. I didn't mean to be disloyal in this fashion.

Today I created the stage backdrops by sticking papers on the walls. My play constitutes of 4 acts and each act has its own scene so now I have to portray Mary's house scene, King Herod's palace scene, Bethlehem scene and the stable scene.
I have also made a detailed plan of the day regarding an accurate timeline of how and when and who will look after Christmas Party, lunch, sleep, actor's costume dressing and make up etc. so that there is no confusion. Actually this is something that should have been discussed in the meeting which As deliberately cancelled to put me in trouble. An will distribute this paper to all the teachers. Right now I am stitching curtains....

These are my last days in this school but I rarely find time to brood. My mind is so full of play and the whole lot of responsibilities which I have to perform alone.
I still haven't talked to As about this. S says no need to talk about it right now. After the closing of the school on 23rd of December for Christmas Vacation I can anytime mail her about it. She can't come gnawing and gnashing at me through flight windows....! Will serve her right for being so nasty to me the way she is.
