The night before the college reopening...

You could see one thin skinny girl , wearing baggy clothes with a messed up hair moving here and there in her small bedroom arranging her stuff for the first day of her college .Finally after putting all her stuff in her bag she sat down on her bed and let out a long breath

Whoosh!

" Kabhi nahi patha tha mbbs karna itna mushkil hoga ! college shuru hone se pehle hi yeh haal hai tho patha nahi kal se kya hoga . I wish mom aur dad hote aaj shayad bahut proud feel karthe honge. I Miss you guys "

She became a little emotional remembering her parents .

"Ofcourse they will be proud of you ! India ki top college meh admission mila hai , who bhi merit pe , c'mn shilpa who won't be proud of you . Every parent wishes to have a daughter like you"

She hugged shilpa but only shilpa knew no parent would want a daughter like her. If only they knew what happened to her...

"Stop being senti yaar, kal tumhari bachpan ki sapne poore hone jaa rahe hai . Now cheer up .

Aisi shakal leke college jahoongi kya , so get some sleep ok?

Good night meri behna ...

Love you "

She forced a smile on her face "good night ds "

After divya left the room , shilpa came to her balcony and stood there in the dark night , staring at nothing in particular.

"KITNA KHAUF HOTA HAI

SHAAM KI ANDHEROON MAI,

POOCH UNN PARINDHOON SE

JIN KE GHAR NAHI HOTEY "

The night before college opening

Sorry bro I didn't knew you like such stuff . he couldn't believe his eyes the great Armaan mallik loved such stuff such girly stuff

COOKING!!!!!!!!!

Armaaan burst out laughing listening to his words . he was doing all this just to irritate his buddy and he was very happy he had accomplished in pissing him off completely.

Ok mallik lets go that's enough for today

So both the buddies got off into their Mercedes and drove off to their house

Armaan got freshened up and sat to write his diary

Well tomorrow is the beginning of a new journey of my life . I just don't know how am I gonno deal with all the stress which comes with my dream. From the childhood I always fulfilled the dreams of my parents but for the first time in my life I have dreamt of something I just hope I comeout of this with flying colours

Seeing him in such deep thoughts Devyani , armaaan's mother chuckled

" beta , why are you stressing out so much . chill karo dude , you have dreamt for almost all your life don't worry nothing will go wrong ok? "

"Yes sweety I know but still im just scared yaar"

"aree! Aise kyu sooch rahe ho sab teek hoga khuda pe bharaosa rakho "

Inshallah "
