"मुझे भेजा था दुनिया देखने को,
मैं एक चहरे को तकता रह गया!"

Space College-

The another day! A New day! Students were entering in the premises of their college, with smiles on their faces. And why not? Indeed College life is an important part of life. Here, you don't only learn the book lessons, but lessons of life too. You get new friends, some who stays with you till the last and others, with whom you lose the contact by the end of the college. And you realise the big group of friends, you called as friends were just companions, and the one or two you're left with, are your true friends! And that's life, you get the maturity that people will come and go, but real well wishers are those, who stay. And that's why, college life is necessary, not only for building up your careers, but also to build a new You!

Amidst all the students, Nandini too entered in the college. This morning was nothing different for her, waking up early, preparing breakfast, getting Anahita ready for the play school, then dropping her there, and then finally reaching college. Like every other student, she is not excited. She is not smiling. She is just moving. Because unlike everyone else, she is here to study, just study! So that she can do something productive after having a degree, and give her daughter a secure childhood. She is not in need to learn any other lessons, life have taught her many, already! And she have perfectly learnt them. She recite them! Everyday!

She was nervous, damm nervous. A part of her was saying her to go back, but the mother in her, who wanted nothing, but her child's happiness, was giving her strength. And hence masking her nervous - ness with her fake confidence, she was moving towards her class, looking at the other students who were so enthusiastic. And she sighed in disbelief in her head, at their enthusiasm. Hah! Wait for life to show it's colour darlings! She thought!

Well, she was not like this from starting. If anything, she had so many dreams of her college life. She was this, typical teen who used to fantasize college life, after watching those typical bollywood movies. She had so many dreams, so many hopes, so many plans! But then, life happened! And here is she, with no such dreams, so hopes, no big plans. Just a mission to accomplish, and that is, to get compatible enough to give a better life to her daughter.

Her daughter! Who is her only family, her only source of sunshine. People back then told her to abandon her, why? Because she was an unwanted child. Because she was the outcome of a sin, that destroyed Nandini's life. According to "those" people, she (Anahita) would always make her remind of what happened that day with her, for she is the result of that sin, blood of him!

But how could she? Born or not, she felt the responsibility of that unborn child, she felt the motherly love for her child. And no matter, what the the world said, what her own family said, she can't be that cruel, to kill her baby. Because she is Her Baby, Only Her's!

And no! She doesn't remind her of that dreadful night, instead she makes her forget it. Whenever she (Nandini) gets nightmare of that night, It's always Anahita, who makes her feel calm. Anahita is Her Peace! And she very much feel blessed to have her! Doesn't matter, what anyone else have to say in it!

Entering in the class, she silently settled on a corner bench and fished out her book, reading it ignoring the noisy students, untill the professor arrived.

Finishing her first two lectures, she silently moved out of the classroom and moved in the canteen to have something, as in morning due to her daughter's mischievousness she was late and didn't had her breakfast. Fishing out the tiffin box with sandwiches Ishita packed for her she started having them, when suddenly the another chair of her table was pulled out and a guy sat on it with a smirk. She frowned and looked at the guy before looking down and closed her box silently and stood up to leave when the guy held her wrist from behind making her flinch and she jerked her hand back..
