It was a normal day of summer. The weather had though changed overnight due to raining yesterday making the climate more refreshing and pleasent. The humidity and sultriness of the weather had almost vanished because of heavy rainfall at midnight. The perpetual sky was brimming with clouds along with the thick and feeble rays of the sun illuminating the entire land.

Raghav cursed under his breath tightly closing his eyes to have an expectation of sleeping more as the alarm in his phone continued to ring disturbing him to the extend. Groaning himself, he woke up suppressing a yawn. Taking a shower, he came downstairs. He inhaled some air as his sight fell on his uncle who was already sipping on his tea and reading newspaper. His uncle was a mechanical engineer who owned a garage which was located just a few distance away from his college. He had been studying law in National Institute of Law.

In early morning, he had to wake up and go to the garage. From there, he had to attend classes of college. Due to his work schedule, he was quite irregular in his college. After college, he continued to work in garage till night. With his work load, he hardly got times to study. However he adjusted it easily by studying in garage in free times and in his house at midnight.
He worked as a car mechanic in his uncle's garage. He and his uncle lived in the two storied building almost at the end of cityside. It was small house made of brick and limestone designed in old style.

Five years ago, he was living a life of king ruling in the world. He had everything a man needed. Charms, luxury, wealth and reputation.

Everything tumbled into pieces when his parents decided to leave him in this world by himself. No, he didn't feel any remorse for their death. Instead, he felt no emotions for them. After the way they had abandoned him, he had nothing left. Now all he wanted was to focus on his studies and persue his career as a lawyer. Although his uncle did not possess so much wealth and power, Jairaj earned pretty good which was enough for both of them.

"Good morning, Uncle." He greeted in his usual monotonous tone. Jairaj, his uncle who had been occupied with the newspaper, looked up hearing his voice. He gave a curt nod in his direction and then gestured him to look at the table where he had already kept a plate of sandwich for breakfast.

"Uncle, you don't have to prepare breakfast always. I also live here." He mentioned while taking a seat across Jai.

"That's absolutely fine. I am not that old. I am enough capable to handle my own works." Jairaj replied rather proudly.
