These are the only things which keep us going.. 🌸

" Chalo yaar measurements nahi deni hai kya? " It was just a casual day and the school faculties had informed the students to get their uniform measurements done and not to make any delay regarding this. Dia who entered G1 3rd room which was shared by Kashvi, Maher and Heer scoffed when she found them sleeping.

( Let's go guys don't you want to get your measurements done?)

" Aree abhi toh utha ke gayi thi mai. Itni bhi kya neend aarhi bhai " Dia grumbled. They won't let her to wash her clothes because of the promise they made of going together. But the trio didn't seem to budge.
( It was minutes before I woke you all up. Where do you get this sleep from )

It was noon. Dal chawal worked like local anaesthesia and it was too hard even to open the eyes a bit.

"Ab toh mere talent dikhana hi padega" Dia tiptoed to Maher's bed and leaned in super close to her ears and forced a breath between her teeth and lips. It was only air which reached.
( Let me show you my talent)

"Abeyy yaar phuk kyu rhi hai.. Hatt" Kashvi turned the other side and hid her face between pillow.
( Why are you blowing air?)

" Tum chaar logon ko jana nahi hai kya.. Sabka hogaya, sirf aap log bach gaye. Waha late aanewalo ko daant rhe hai " Deepti swinged the door open and peeked in.

( You four don't want to go or what.. Everyone's got their measurements done it's you people who are left. They are scolding latecomers)

"Yaar.. ye dal chawal banate hai kyu phir?? " Heer woke up and tied her hair in a bun.
(Why do they even make Rice and dal for lunch?)

Everyone wore their slippers and moved to the Hall where a lady sat with a tape. Before she could say something, Maher interrupted rubbing her eyes.

"Hello aunty khana kha liya aapne?? " It was her mere attempt to distract the lady about their latecoming

"Ha beta ab tum ek ek aajao, pura din nahi hai mere paas "
( yes I had it now come one by one, I don't have whole day for this)

After flashing some scarecrow poses with a wtf look when the tailor aunty constantly reminded them to take deep breath, they finally left from there to sleep again.

" Ma'am please 10th walon ko bhejte hai na.. Saath mai achhe se padh sakte hai, koyi disturbance bhi nahi hogi " As the students dispersed to their respective classes after attendance for evening study, the seniors stood around the house mistress coaxing her to shift all the Class X students to common room.

The common room was 2 gaint rooms with 30 beds each. It indirectly meant that none of them would get separate rooms but to stay with others like chicken in cage. It was their plan to occupy better rooms than the older ones.

" Kyu? tum logon ko unke kamre chahiye?"  It was JKH, short for Janvi K. Hooda. House mistress of G1 and always a step ahead for showing people their places. A loving lady with a combo of witty and a sharp tongue.
( Why? You need their rooms?)

" Nahi.. Woh toh bass aise hi " Embarrassed enough they hung their head low. No way they could escape this old fogey.
( No.. It was just..)

"I know everything, drop this smartness in front of me.. Permission isliye de rhi hu kyuki it's your last year here. Jao ab"
She smirked and walked away.

( I am giving permission just because it's your last year here. Go now)

"Thank you ma'am" They ran to their classrooms grinning.
Oh!! How good it is to spend their last year in newly built rooms with attached bathrooms. A joy which never came by.
