So, we present to you the latest addition to QuaranTime Tots, drumroll please….

My Feelings - Shyla Singal

You may or may not have noticed that my so-called friends Amaira Masurekar and Swara Vartak have betrayed me. Swara, or Noodly Girl, filed a case against me, and my friend, Amaira, is the judge. Please take the time to read the following journal, I have been through an emotional roller coaster during this time.

On the day when my ‘betrayal’ was revealed, I considered it as a joke. I thought that we might bring it up a few times during small group, and we might chat about it a bit. I didn’t even dream that this would unfold later on.

April 25th, 2021 - Quarantime Tots Issue 3 - First Mention

I read the post, as I suggest you do as well to refresh your memory. I laughed it off then, assuming it as a little joke that would probably end there. But I just couldn’t get it out of my mind…

Noodly Girl Introduces Quarantime Tots to Others

Well, you may be thinking - how does this contribute to what I’m talking about? Well, when you tell someone about something, they look at it. And in case you had forgotten, there was an entire article about it in our latest issue. This is when the whole #SupportForShy act begun. It made me feel a lot better about the situation, but the problem was…

I was never even feeling bad about it in the first place! This made me feel like I was down in the dumps.

May 4th, 2021 - Daily Tot - Second Mention

I was feeling horrible whenever I thought about this, uh, er, ‘mistake‘ that I made. Hey, at least I got a trial, right? That at least made me feel a lot better.

May 5th, 2021 - Daily Tot - Third Mention

Finally. My turn to talk about this. You may already know my feelings from this day, because I wrote this Tot. Anyways, I was kind of motivated from all the #SupportForShy-s in the chat, so I decided to write my end of the story. I was still sad about it, but feeling strong!

May 7th, 2021 - Daily Tot - Not regarding case

Ah, finally. A Tot not mentioning my case! It’s nice to see my name not involving going to court for once. It was about Noodly Girl’s story column, which you should go check out by the way. This, along with the #SupportForShy helped me get my mind off of the people I now call friends just as a formality.

Noodly Note - WE ARE YOUR FRIENDS. BLAME US FOR THE OBVIOUS EVIDENCE OF CRIME WHICH AMAIRA PLANTED!

Adventure Girl - Wasn’t the Daily Tot for May 12th about that?

May 9th, 2021 - The Day before the Trial - Worst Day

I was panicking, stressing out, and scrambling to finish my homework. Why was I rushing, you ask? Not because I didn’t finish anything and there was school the next day. Because I was too stressed out and wanted to finish my homework quickly to work on my evidence. I had been slowly gathering it, but I realized it wasn’t enough for my court trial the next day. When my parents asked me why I had so many answers wrong, I realized that I was so stressed out and working so fast that I wasn’t paying attention and making the silliest mistakes. I would have finished everything quicker if I had just did it normally! After I finally managed to finish my homework, it was late at night. Well, 7:00 isn’t late, but it was dinner time. I quickly finished and fled to my room-Dad: You’ve been stuck inside your room all day! Let’s go on a walk.

I tried my best to refuse, but he wouldn’t budge. After 10 minutes I managed to get back inside-WHY AREN’T ANY OF MY WITNESSES RESPONDING-What was the punishment for losing the case again?

May 10th, 2021 - Court Trial - Second-Worst Day

My own best friend-oh right she’s not anymore-brought me to court. The judge is, oh sorry, was my best friend too. I admit this was not the worst day, the stress I had the day before couldn’t be outmatched. But today was still one of the worst days of my life.

Noodly Note - You do forgive us now right? I mean Amaira framed you. You must forgive the other people, including me.

Adventure Girl - Again, that’s what the Daily Tot for May 12th covers.

Noodly Note - OH! Yeah.

May 11th, 2021 - Daily Tot - Fourth Mention

Thank you to the anonymous supporter who wrote a Daily Tot talking about all the efforts that my side put into this case! I felt a lot better, especially because I was not guilty anymore! That’s right, I won the case. More about that is mentioned in the May 12th Tot. Oh, that’s tomorrow!

May 12th 2021 - Daily Tot - Fifth Mention

I felt a lot better about this whole thing, especially because THE PERSON WHO BETRAYED ME IS NOW GUILTY. Sorry. But I was shocked when I learnt that Amaira was biased! I was astonished when I heard she was doing this all to STEAL MY LEADERSHIP! She wanted to be the leader instead of the Co-Leader she already is! I say we de-rank her! She is overly ambitious and greedy. Noodly Note - Sorry. We all want that. But it can’t happen. We can give her a horrid punishment tho. It’ll be revealed later!

Adventure Girl - Well-WAIT! WE CAN GIVE HER THE PUNISHMENT THAT I WOULD’VE GOTTEN! WHAT WAS IT AGAIN? Noodly Note - YOU SERIOUSLY FORGOT.

May 13th - Recovery Day

This was the day when I could finally relax. I knew I wasn’t guilty, and I could talk about it, too! Now that all the information has been released to the public, I can speak about some details of the case instead of trying to hide things. I also was released from the stress and panic of a court trial, and knew that I wasn’t guilty!

Noodly Girl - SO before trial u thot u betrayed us and were quilty?

May 15th - EEK Day

EEK. EEK. EEK. EEK. EEK. I CANNOT STOP EEK-ING. THERE IS EEK-WORTHY NEWS! GO READ AMAZING GIRL’S ARTICLE. After this one.

May 17th - Excitement Day

Eek! Tomorrow everyone will get to know about my feelings regarding this case! I’m so excited for my ups and downs to be shared with everyone!

May 18th - Today

I hope you enjoyed reading about my experience. It was pleasant, scary, stressful, and more. But of course you didn’t go through it all, so you wouldn’t know. Anyways, stay happy, don’t get into any crimes, don’t go to court, and read the other articles!!!

Consequences - Swara Vartak

I am afraid that after seriously going over the evidence Amaira is definitely guilty. Here is her case file.

Name - Amaira Maserukar

Charges - Betrayal; treason; framing and innocent member; attempt to overthrow leadership; trickery; lying; pretending to be a judge

Motive - Wanting to overthrow the leadership, in order to rise to leader level

Punishment - Never being allowed to eat or swallow plastic.

As you can see, Amaira was punished horribly for her crimes… imagine… not being able to eat plastic! THE HORROR. However we refuse to be lenient. She framed a figure of authority for treason and lied to group 4 betraying Shyla and Group 4. In fact we also believe she may be eligible for punishment for spying for another group. Why else would she divert suspicions from herself by accusing Shyla! The leadership thing was just a bonus. We are dearly sorry to Adventure Girl, as you can tell from my Noodly Notes, and we hope she can forgive us for this horrible misunderstanding. Thank you for understanding.
