Isha's P.O.V 

I got an idea. A little extra money doesn't hurt, especially when I will be needing books apart from the study material provided by the University. 

Yes it's going to be challenging, I will have to stay up late or get up early to study. It will f*ck up my sleep schedule but it will be worth it at the end, also it's not like it's new for me. I tutor my brother all the time so what can this new one do? With that thought I went out to talk with her mother. 

**me** Namaste aunty 

(Hello aunty) 

**Aunty** Namaste beta, Tum kon? 
(Hello dear, who are you?) 

**me**Mai Akansha ki friend hu

(and may I ask how?)

(I can home tutor her, and anyways right now you said that coaching institutes are asking for a high fees, I won't ask that from you)

(it's valid, I will home tutor her that too all subjects )

**Aunty**Phir bhi thode jyada hai

**me**    Aap ek kaam kijiye 2 din ka demo dekh lijiye agar mera padhana pasand aa gaya toh fix kar Lena nahi toh aapki Marji

With that being said I took leave from there. I was determined to make sure I achieved my dreams ,I will do everything in my power for my future, for my own self. 

I start my journey back home, all the while reflecting on today's events, listening to Arijit Singh. Reaching home I drop on the couch and take long, deep breaths.
