It's really been a long time since I last came here. The musty smell of monsoon, the people greeting each other with hugs and love. I went to US when I was 5.

Papa told me I needed to stay there, complete my academics and then higher education. At first I cried a lot, saying I don't want to, I can't stay away from mumma but he was persisted on sending me.

I stayed at a hostel first but later after my high school, i insisted on staying by my own. Him and mumma came from time to time to visit me, but never let me come here.

Not that I lost contact with my culture, but I lost contact with my childhood, which I think would have been much fun with mumma and papa by my side all the time.

I insisted papa that instead of handling Aggarwal group's branch which is in New York, I want to work in India now. Ny's branch was launched by me but I let one of my best employee to look after it for now.

Right now, I am at the airport. Papa told that he would come to pick me up but I said instead send a car. I will drive. Moving towards the parking lot, the driver came and gave me the keys. Sending him back, I sat in the car and drove off.

I played the song, 'Sanam Re', by Arijit Singh. Though I lived most of my life in NY, I just love Bollywood movies and Hindi songs. I rolled down the windows and cool breeze started hitting my face and soon it started raining. The cold droplets of water showering my face.

I rolled up the window because I don't wanna get wet right now. The road is quite empty today. I heard a sound and looked at the passenger side to find my phone ringing. Must be mumma, I picked it up and started talking to her. I was driving when suddenly a dog came in front of my car.

"Shit! Mumma I will call you later." Saying, I hung up the call and went outside to find that the dog is fine. Thank God! I went near it and picked it up, which was now shivering in fear. I wonder why he ran on the road. I kept it on the footpath after checking for injuries. He was fine, thankfully.

I am all soaked in the rain now. Sighing, I went back in my car and started the engine. The car started but it stopped. I tried again but it's not even taking a start now. I went out, opened the bonnet of the car and tried to figure out. But I don't know anything about machins . Wait, I should call someone for help.

I called the driver and he said that he will take 30 minutes to reach here. I hung up the call and decided to wait in the car. I turned back to walk towards the door, just then a car stopped in front of me. Few men coming out with a gun in their hands. Looks like robbers to me.

I tried to go from the other side,  inside my car to get the pepper spray. Would it even work? They have gun, bitch! Scolding myself, I tried to run, just then one of the man held my hands and said,"Give me your car keys and all the cards, now!" He shouted at the last word making me flinch.
