I wake up next morning, it feels so comfortable to sleep on that bed as it was so soft as latte surfing in air without tension. After rubbing my dry puffy eyes with my bare hands, tucked the sheets into the bed, making it look well clear and clean. Then I went inside the washroom and took a quickie shower.

After completing my shower I came out wrapping my towel to my body to cover myself from this world. I took another towel to rub my wetty hair, which was dripping out water making the floor wet, My eyes fell on the gift, which my parents gifted me last night.

I opened the gift that Amma and Paa gifted me yesterday. After I slightly peeked into the box, I saw there was a beautiful dress inside. I knew they would have done something special to make me feel happy as it's my first day at college. I also remember the first day of my school, amma was so worried about me, so to change her worries into happy moment, appa bought a choco lava cake... That was the first time when I ate my first cake too. That day was delightful for me.

Gifted Dress

It was neck printed flared dress with flower designs on it, you know when I was small like in 5 STD, when my granny used to torture me by her words. At that time these beautiful flowers helped me to cope up from the sadness. Whenever I feel the bag of sadness hanging around my neck at that time I used to came in garden to feel some peace and to get my brain and body a good relaxation from my complications, far far away from my problems and hateness and yeah, this pretty flowers helped me to get distracted from the source of my problems but that problem just get blurred for that movement, eventually, they came back and hit me even more hard. But just for that peaceful movement I will do anything. Literally anything.

I wore that dress and got ready for today's first day at college, I checked myself through mirror for the last time and came down while Amma was getting dinning table ready for my breakfast.

That dinning table is for servants only, as this is the only place where they could live their movements peacefully without any work problems, just only family time, where no MALHOTRA'S did ever come as they knew the meaning of privacy as for workers, they are humans too and when they are in the servant quarter, they live like king and queen here. After eating my breakfast, I came out while I saw jack waiting for me at the door.

Hey, Jack. Good Morning. I greeted him with perfectly curved smile with happiness surrounding all over it.

Hey, Nandani, GOOD MORNING, he greeted back,

Are you ready for your today's big day?. He asked.

Yea, totally. I replied.

So let's go to your destination. He spoke. We sat inside the car and drove off to my new college.

After some time passed in the car, jack spoke,Nandani, there is something for you in the back seat. He said every single word with smile spreading on his face like a butter spread on bread.

What??? I asked and turned my gaze towards backseat, where I saw a box wrapped perfectly in a gift paper. I took that box and carefully put it on my thighs and opened it.

There was a beautiful handbag with some boxes of make up, plus with an identity card.

I took that card out, as there was my information and photo printed on it. I saw the name of college. S.P.A.C.E , by it's name, it sounds like it is an affluent college.

We reached college in no time. When I saw the college, my eyes popped out as that college is like the place where I could really make my future. Beauty of the place was commendable. But a part inside me was scared as this place is unknown for me and I don't even know these people. I was afraid as I thought for once about what if I didn't fit with this rich people. I came out of that horrified thought as a girl approached towards me, she looks horrified too, i think she is new too. Meanwhile jack went back.

Hey, she started the conversation.

Hie, are u new here? I questioned.

Yes, she replied. What about u? she asked the same question.

Ya, i replied.

Would u like to be my first friend in college??? She asked. That was cute of her to ask this question with cuteness spread all over her facial expressions and that expressions were DABly cute.

Why not! I replied.

Friends, she asked.

Ya, friends. I replied. We shaked our hands.

So what is your lovely name miss? I want to know her more as she is my first friend in MUMBAI though.

My name is NAVYA NAVELI! She said.

What a beautiful name. Navya! I smiled by saying every single word.

What about you? She asked.

NANDANI MURTHY. I replied.

You are Nandani Murthy... She asked me with brutal expressions.

Yes, I replied as I didn't have any idea about what happened?.

Navya, are you okay? I asked in tension as her expressions changed theoretically, by hearing my name.

You didn't watched it, yet? Did you? She questioned.

I was confused as I don't have any single thread of idea about what she is talking about?.

What i didn't watch, yet? I asked.

Come with me, she said and pulled me to the board, it seems like a notice board to me. But why so many people are crowded over there. Firstly, I thought there is some urgent anouncement but when i saw the board, my breath stopped as ton of water started coming from my eyes, by seeing that I was feeling embaressed and humiliated, I tried to be strong as I tried to stop my tears but my tears didn't want me to stop. I didn't knew that was the starting of my problems.
