Naira: Raki, where are the name tags?

Raki: I've hung them on the right corner behind the bookshelf... the shelf with Pathology books.

Nair: Okay Babe!

Zara: I'm ready! Wow this white coat is so neat... and I donno feels like I am some big person.

Raki: Keep it in your bag, we don't wear it till we reach the classroom, after the welcome ceremony.

Yuvi: Actually in films and all I have seen them sitting wearing these coats.

Naira: Yeah, those are FILMS.

Yuvi: What?

Raki: I asked a senior, she told me they give us our name plates at the ceremony along with a white coat from college's side. That coat has college symbol attached to it. We have to wear those on Mondays and Fridays.

Yuvi: So then, why are we taking this coat with us?

Naira: Excuse me... WE are not taking if you noticed. Only Zara is taking...

Yuvi: Huh?

Raki: yeah she wanted to take it that's all.

Zara: I want to wear this on first day. It's my grandmother's. She was a Physician.

Yuvi: Oh I see...

Naira: Let's discuss family history and emotional situations after our class or else we are gonna be late.

The girls took their ID cards, packed their bags and walked to the college. After a 10 minute walk, they were standing in front of the 1st year MBBS Batch A. It was a square classroom. There as a black and white board. Few students sat scattered. There were around 60 seats there. Each one had their own desk and chair. The classroom looked old, there were French long windows and small creeper plants were kept aside to these. There was a huge Gothic book shelf behind the class that had 60 columns with name labels.

Yuvi, Raki, Naira and Zara sat around the middle area.

Zara: Nice room na?

Naira: yeah, it has a feel.

Raki: It's an old college, it will have antique aesthetics.

Zara: yeah!

Yuvi: You know what? I wonder if they will make us sit according to our roll numbers, you know in alphabetical order.

Zara: I knew you were not matured enough to sit in a MBBS classroom! Grow up kid!

Raki: Why would they do that? We are 18-19 not 8-9!

Yuvi: I don't know, I just get that vibe.

Naira: well, it's a negative vibe, crush it.

Yuvi: Yeah well let's see!

Zara: Make us sit in alphabetical order, puff! How do you think so childish?!

Raki: Hey, look at that...

Zara: What now? Please don't say we have to bring water bottles or cover our book in brown paper!

Raki: No girl, look who is there...

Zara: Who? Cole Sprouse?

Yuvi: Cole? Really?

Naira: Raki!! Who is it?

Raki: It's the boy who Zara hit down and his friend.

Zara: What!!
