As the author of two bestseller books, she had attended many success events. They were all well attended and the discussions about the book went on for long. She loved interacting with people during those events.

Today, she was rather nervous. The event was in the Multipurpose Room of her old school. On such a rainy day, would there be any crowd at the event? Would people even want to come and see her or listen to her? After all, she was just one among them.

As she walked towards the stage, she couldn’t believe her eyes. The room was filled with people of all ages. No amount of rain or storm had dampened their spirits. They waved their placards as she got on the stage. Sitting on the stage, she read each of them.

“Your journey is my inspiration”

“You are our local hero”

“I want to grow up and be like you”

“You have put our town on the map”

“How can I be you”

“I love you”

And the one that she loved the most, “If you can, I know, I can.”

This was indeed the best reception that she had got post the success of her books. She had always believed in the power of local heros and today, she was THAT LOCAL HERO.
