Things started changing I got used to my college life and it was not bad, better than what I had expected due to my initial experience. I made good friends, even the seniors who had once intimidated me had become acquaintances, we would wake up early for volleyball matches, attend boring classes, and weekend outings, and sometimes even jump the walls of the campus to go for late-night movies.

I didn't even know how the time flew by two years had passed by and I had finally come out of the hostel and stayed in a rented house with two of my hostel friends Gaurav and Ram they were from different engineering batches but we got close being in the same volleyball team. 

I was in 3rd year now and due to being away from home I had missed a lot of family functions.

I decided to head back to my hometown in Tamil Nadu to attend a small gathering.

As I stepped off the train into the warm embrace of my ancestral village, I felt a sense of nostalgia wash over me.

I had grown up in Mumbai, but my parents' roots ran deep in this small town, and I loved visiting his grandparents and extended family whenever I could. 

I had missed the wedding of my cousin, so went to attend an after-marriage family gathering.

As I reached my relative's house I met my cousins and was catching up on old times.
