1.PREPARATION FOR THE NEW BEGINNING
"Please mommy,this will be the only year I'll b staying in hostel.Next year I'll join a mess or will live with Nana but not inside that unhygienic engineering hostel."
"You talk too much.Just lend me those plastic boxes.You need to have one for medicines,one for your favorite arisa pithas,one for your earrings and all your mini fashion stuffs and one..."
"Mommy I was telling you something that really matters to me.Fine but i won't stay in that hostel more than a year and that is final."
I went away angrily throwing away the pink teddy that Papa had gifted me on my birthday.
Being the middle one I was too much pampered by my family. My Nana(elder sister) was and is an Idol to me and my younger sis Jass was my baby as well as my fashion Icon. I was actually taken care of like a Princess.Life was awesome at home and the day I qualified for engineering in Computer Science at one of the top engineering colleges of Odisha, my life changed.
It was while I was thinking about my life at home when I heard something. "Munu, come dear".And this time I had no other options than to go back as papa was calling out for me and I couldn't deny and help mommy and papa to pack my stuffs .
Nobody understood that I was feeling so bad to leave home and set out for a journey to become an engineer, an unknown journey for four long years,may be filled with unexpected twists.But who cared as i just wanted 1 thing "NOT-TO-STAY-IN-HOSTEL".
I asked Papa if we all could go out for lunch together and he smiled.And that was the best lunch I had ever had with my family.Everyone was cheering and boosting me up.Then we went to a nearby mall and Nana brought me some pairs of jeans and tops to bring a change in my Boring Style Quotient(according to her) and shoes were of Jass's choice.
Then we went to a jewellery shop and I was gifted a 'Hanumanji' locket by Mommy and Papa.
Sadly but with satisfied smile I went to bed and three of us slept together.
May be I was actually given a farewell.
Mommy was shouting at me to be fast and pack my belongings but i was too reluctant to listen to her as I felt no one was understanding me- a general teenage problem.
The next day was just a simple sunrise for me until I realised that i had lost my common-SENSE. I found myself sleeping on the floor with my teddy as my pillow.I got up and stood upright facing myself in the mirror.It was then when I realised that I was forgetting something.The quest for that "something" didn't last long as Mummy ,as usual,intervened.That was when a shiver went down my bones;it was my last day at home.Tears ran down spontaneouslythrough my so-called Beautiful eyes(by-chance)and I became tensed.I went away to my washroom and came out after an hour and found Papa making the last-minute packings.
I was,overall,really very happy and was ready to start my New Engineering Life.
