HANIA

"You are coming with me that's it"he said in a deep voice .I looked at him he is standing a few feet away from me beside his bike ,his back facing me and his face tilted to the side.

Due to the darkness I can't see his face properly!

I said "I-i don't know what to do-?"my voice was shaky contrast to his stren one.

"What I can't leave you with them!! You have to trust me with this c'mon Hania think about it"he tried to convince me.

And i glanced at the malignant people who are on the other side of me who didn't leave a chance to pick on me and i hesitantly said in a wobbly tone, "ok I coming with you"took few steps to reach him,just as I was about place my hand on his shoulder and he was about to turn to face me....a loud sound of my alarm filled in the room waking me from my sleep.

Why do I dream about the same thing? Why can't I see his face? Why it has to stop just before I see his face? .

These are the questions I ask my self everyday from the past 4 years.

"Hania.....my mom yelled from the kitchen "Get up you are getting late... Mujhe pata nahi ki tum kab badlogi ,din ba din tum sust hoti ja rahi ho!!" I just closed my years with a pillow and drifted back into sleep.

(I don't know when will you change, you are getting lazy day by day)

And suddenly i remembered, what day it was..my college admission!!

It was my fault I shouldn't have slept after my morning prayer.I quickly  took a shower changed into a purple kurta set tied my curls into a loose bun and wrapped a hijab and got out of my room.

"Zahra have you checked all the required documents??" My dad asked me looking up from the newspaper.

"jii papa" Checking them again, what if I missed something?

I had my breakfast and left the house with my dad.

The moment is here which I was dreaming from past 2years my medical College addmission.

Becoming a doctor is a difficult job in India, but getting a medical College is much more difficult.

They are all the things here are done underwraps..and as they say this country walks with the motto of "Truth alone triumphs" but nothing here is truthful or justified.

Corruption rules the country and people are used to it...

I'm might sound too boring or too pettish, but it's just one of the voices of the million teenagers in this country, just clinging on one exam as our whole life depends on it.

Not really,but this society made us like that..

After 2 drop years I finally made it I was standing infornt of the most prestigious college of my state Deccan medical College, I know it's a private college but I got into it through merit reservation and full scholarship.

I was sitting In a room opposite to the admistrative block with my dad waiting for my admission.And my phone started buzzing it was my Ammi.

'Hello?"I answered it my mom's voice was unclear due to poor signal, the college is far away from the city on the outskirts of it.

But I know what she is saying "Don't be nervous when they ask you questions answer them confidently, and don't be shy if you have any questions to ask you shouldn't hesitate in the matter of education!!!"she said,and I'm hearing the same thing since I was three when i joined school.
