I woke up and spread my arms while yawning.I slept on the sofa last night. I folded my blanket and thought to myself about who could've given me the blanket while I was asleep.

Namjoon came from upstairs while reading a book.His eyes were focused on the page of the book and another hand was gracefully holding a mug.

I asked him about the time.

"7 am", he replied, without looking at me.

" I woke up early!",I muttered almost inaudibly.

"You woke up late!", he corrected.

" As a student,you should've woken up at 5:30 am.Then workout and study!",he put his book on the table and sat on the sofa.

"What kind of a student are you?", leaning back,he crossed his legs.

" I mean,your IQ and academic achievements",he smiled.

"An idiot as a student!", I looked down as my mind went back to the days when I was in Bangladesh.

''Is this what you give us?", abbu threw the phone on the bed after seeing my board exam result.

" 19 years of a dream!19 ",ammu sobbed while silent sobs escaped my eyes.I quickly wiped my eyes, not letting my guard down.

" when you were born, I wished for you to become a doctor.Along with you, I raised that dream in my heart",ammu's heavy sobs felt like a burden on my skin.

"What did we lack as parents?We got you a good tutor,new edition-books,a phone. We got you admitted into a good college too.We spent on you well, why couldn’t you just score to our hope and expectations? ", abbu looked at me.I saw the white strands of his beard. I looked at his hands which are still earning for me,working hard everyday just to give me a better life.

It's not their fault. It's mine. All they did was dream and I couldn’t even fulfill their dream.Even when all of my classmates were using cheap Biology kits for practical , my father brought me the expensive one.When asked,he said I'd be needing them later. By that he meant,when I get into a government medical college,my expensive biology kit may come in handy.

" I can't believe this!I just can't!",my elder sister cried.

A big hand taped my shoulder as I stepped out of my thoughts.

"Are you okay?", Namjoon asked as he slightly shook me.

" Yes",I sniffled as he brought me a glass of water.By the time he came,Taehyung and Jungkook came down as well.They were quiet surprised as they took a look at me.

"Drink it!", Namjoon patted my head as I drank.

" Don't worry.We will manage everything
You will definitely go back home!",Jung-
kook assured me.

How do I tell him that it wasn’t about going home?

"I promise you that you will be able to return!", Namjoon rubbed my back hesitantly. I couldn’t stop myself and put my head on Namjoon's shoulder, I sobbed inaudibly. Taehyung's eyes grew wider at my sudden movement.

Namjoon slowly patted my head as Jungkook came with a glass of water.Kneeling infront of me,he gave me the glass.Taehyung just stood there like a mountain.

" Yaaa!J-Just stop crying",he orders me. As if I'm bound to listen to him.

"Bro,have some emotion!Put yourself in her shoes", Namjoon grunts at Tae.

" You guys are making me seem like a bad boy.Just stop doing it!",Tae yelled and I jerked at his loud voice.

"Why do you have to bark?", I stood up. He frowned at my action as well as my audacity.
