You were trembling with sweat, trying to open your eyes repeatedly, your hands were shaking too but was unable to do anything. Suddenly, you open your eyes and takes deep breaths.You look around, then your gaze falls on the alarm clock beside your nightstand. You said "Not again please" Every time, the same dream, but you can't call it a dream; it's more like a nightmare to you.
You said"There's no point in sleeping now. Sleep won't come anyway."as it was only 4:30am in the morning then you get up from the bed.You put on your slippers and heads to the bathroom to freshen up.

After the shower, you were drying your hair with a towel when you received a notification on your phone. You saw in your college group chat ,students were discussing the arrival of a new professor. You scoffed and said "What's that got to do with me? Whether someone new comes or goes, my life will remain the same, right?" Saying this, you put your phone down.

" Mom, good morning!"You shouted as you descended the stairs, seeing your mother busy preparing breakfast as usual.
"Morning Y/N" your mother replied. " By the way, which direction did the sun rise today, because you...' she pointed towards You and said, "so early?" She raised her eyebrows and chuckled a bit.
"What's so funny about this?" You pouted but then, while hugging your mother from behind, asked, "Can I help you with something?"

"What help can you offer? You don't even know the 'K' of kitchen work" your mother shook her head in a no and started frying pancakes.
"Oh, please! I know how to make ramen, and...and I can even brew coffee, don't forget that!" You crossed your arms over your chest and defended yourself.

"Okay, okay, it's a big deal... then go ahead and prepare coffee for your dad." Your mother said.

"Mom! Did Dad return from his trip last night?" You asked curiously . "Yeah..you were already asleep, so I didn't wake you," your mom replied.

Everyone was having breakfast when Your dad asked ,"How is your studying going?"You gulped and mumbled nervously, "Good, Dad."
"You should work hard and just don't get lower marks like last time... you know how humiliating it was for me," he said firmly.
"Yes Dad" You lowered her head and replied.

Your dad had asked you to choose the business stream, and you had chosen against your will, hoping that your dad would be happy with it. But everything turned out differently because no matter how much you try, you can't handle it now as you are not doing so well in your studying. You so badly want to say this to your Dad but you haven't been able to tell because of your introvert personality.

Today, you arrived at college a bit early, so you thought, why not read some books in the library? By books, you mean fiction books because academic books seem like a bunch of annoying insects to you.

You picked up your pending novel from the bookshelf and went to your favorite spot... the seat in the library's farthest corner where not many students usually come. You placed your novel on the table and sat on the chair... this is what they call peace in life, a place where cool breezes flow and your favorite book, uff.

You were so engrossed in your reading that you didn't realize how much time had passed. It was only when your only friend Nia called and you checked the time and realized that the first period was about to start in 5 minutes. That's why you are now running in the corridor to avoid being late.

As you were running, you accidentally collided with someone, and both of you fell down. You both hissed in pain. But when your eyes met, you immediately averted your gaze. "Hey, are you okay?" he extended his hand towards you and asked in a worried tone. You nodded and got up on your own. He awkwardly moved his hand behind and then picked up some books that had fallen.
