FREEDOM
.
.
.
This is all she could think of when she entered the main gate of IIT Kharagpur.
She is "Saanvi Thakur" just a common girl like us who fights for her freedom from her family which she got by getting selected in JEE ADVANCED she chose Kharagpur cause there wasn't anyone whom her family members knew so eventually they had to put her in a hostel and that how she purses her freedom for 4 years after that...........
Well, we shouldn't talk about the bad things when happiness and freedom are going to come to us right, so let's stop all bullshit here about her past and focus on her present.
SAANVI POV,,
I entered the university's main gate with my father and brother.
I love my parents and brother so much. But I can't say the same about my other family members. They just suck whatever let's not think about it more.
"Jiji (Sis) you are going to study here," my brother Ritvik said.
"What do you think Rit" I replied while checking the buildings.
" Well, bhaiya (brother) said that people who study in co-college always have relationships," Ritvik said and this is all it took to kill my excitement.
"Ritvik don't talk to your sister like that" Papa (Father) glared at Ritvik and he shut his mouth.
"I hate you all. I hate you all from my guts. You all are making my brother like you" I cursed my cousin in my mind cause my brother and my father loved them so much so I can't say loudly.
When I was in my thoughts we reached to principal office.
"Ritvik stay here till we come from the office," Papa said to which Ritvik nodded.
Then we entered in office and fulfilled all the necessities took the hostel ID and copy from there. We have to submit the copy to the warder.
"Ritvik Let's go," Papa said and we all left toward the hostel.
Now we are walking for the last 20 minutes to reach the hostel. Thank God we come in a Cab to the Staff sector or else it will take us 20 min to reach the principal office why this campus is so big?
After walking for so long while talking within ourselves we reach the hostel side of the campus where 10 buildings can be seen. Suddenly a guard came toward us and asked.
"Umm, what happened" Gaurd asked.
"Where is G-3 hostel" my father asked.
"This way Sir, follow me," Gaurd said and we all followed him.
In between we saw so many students walking here and there. I was trying to learn the way and surroundings cause it is so easy to get lost here and suddenly my eyes fell on a couple sorry a bunch of couples Don't think wrong I am saying it cause I saw a girl and boy holding hands or just talking. What I saw was horrific cause I saw a bunch of couples kissing here and there on the campus while you came to take admission with your strict Indian father who hated the word "LOVE" from head to toe.
When I saw that I turned my head toward my father and saw that he did see all those couples and my anxiety had no limit. My overthinking mind had imagined all the scenarios that how will my father would take me from here cause of this.
My train of thought got her break when I heard, "This is a G-3 hostel but you and your son can't go inside," the guard said.
"Why" Ritvik hurriedly asked.
"Sir it's a girl's hostel that's why," Gaurd said.
"But we are her family" my brother argued.
"But sir other girls also live here and for them, you are a stranger and this is our rule so sorry to disappoint you but you can't go inside" Gaurd explained himself well he is saying the truth through.
"But.." my brother tried to argue again but my father cut him off with a glare and said.
"You are right and we respect their privacy and your rules so we will not go inside but can we go inside the canteen to eat" he asked.
"Yes there is a common mess also where students and their families spend some time with each other so yes you can go there" Gaurd replied.
" Okay," my father said and the guard left as there.
"So let's go to eat then we will leave you here and will go," he said
"Ummm, Papa can I first put the bags inside 'cause they are heavy" I asked while pointing toward the bags that my father and brother are holding.
"Hmm, Go and do your formalities baccha (baby) we will wait," Papa said.
I smiled at him and they put those bags outside of the hostel and went toward a distance I took those bags inside one by one and did all the formalities. I grab my room keys and let the bags stay near the reception so those don't have to wait much for me. I left the hostel and saw my father and brother having a conversation.
When I reached them I heard my brother "But Papa didn't you see what kind of environment is here," to which Papa replied "And don't you trust your Jiji," my brother argued, "Yes I trust her but didn't you hear bhaiya they said that this kind of environment can change her and you had also seen those people doing that."
I was having a mental breakdown cause of this all when my father said, " Look I do remember what they said but still I have trust in my daughter that she will not disappoint me so this is the end of the discussion," It was like a full stop after that my brother didn't say anything and start to thinking God knows what.
I came to my senses wiped my tears and went toward them. They saw me and we all went toward the direction which that guard said for the common mess.
After eating food we went to the hostel again. It's already the time of Sunset.
"So here we are," Papa said and looked at me, "Remember we are always with you from your highs to your lows, We are just a distance of a phone call, Okay so don't be nervous and stay happy and healthy focus on only your studies and don't disappoint me." my father complete.
Suddenly I feel fear. Fear of distancing, this is the first time I will live without them. I was feeling so emotional so I did what I felt at that moment and hugged my father, for the first time in my life I hugged him.
After 5 minutes of crying and an emotional breakdown, I detach myself from him and hug my brother. I was feeling so emotional but didn't cry infront of him I did whisper something "Rit Don't you trust your Jiji now" and detached myself from him. All I could see is guilt in his eyes but choose to ignore it and look at my father.
"You should go or you are going to be late for the train and please inform me when you reach the train station and also when you reach home okay" I said.
They nodded and went.
Tears started to build in my eyes and I went inside the hostel.
"I promise you, papa. I will never disappoint you. I will always stay away from these relationships and love"

This is just the start of her new life where her every struggle will pay off.
