|Raj's P.O.V|

"1 more day before I welcome the darkness like an old friend with open arms. In an endless torment of solitude." I whispered to myself as I closed my eyes and rested my head on a park bench, feeling the light sunday breeze on my face. It was getting dark as the sun was setting. I took a quick glance at my watch and my eyes immediately widened as i started to slip back into reality. I had be sitting here the whole afternoon.

"Raj, where have you been the whole afternoon?! I was just about to call the police! Where are your bodyguards? Do you have any sense of responsibility?!" Screamed my dad across the stairs in his posh black suit and his secretary aka mistress holding a pile of files behind him as I entered my Mansion.

I lived in a huge house with a private pool and a line of expensive cars lined up at the front porch. My dad was a filthy rich business man and he had always wanted me to be just like him to be able to handle his business empire of diamonds.

"I'm not a small boy anymore i just turned 21 last week and i can take care of myself. Just stop acting like you give a damn about me, dad." I shouted across rudely, staring at my dad's secretary Deepika who just stood there giving me an annoyed expression.

Not wanting to continue the conversation with him i quickly climbed the fleet of stairs and made my way pass the long corridor to my room. It was at the far end with a big balcony with the most perfect view of the city below us. We lived in an upper hill state where all the other rich and famous people lived with their vast spacious landed property. I let out a small sigh as i pushed opened the massive polished wood door and walked in removing my black demin leather jacket.

I threw my leather jacket across the white marble floor clearly upset with the messed up life i was having causing it to slide to the far end of my room. I shook away my shoes before jumping onto my California King sized bed, it was big enough to fit 5 people comfortably and it was super cosy that i sank in it immediately.

I was lying on my back and staring into the high caved ceiling and wondering how my new college is going to be like. I was a transferred student as my dad wanted me to stay close to him as i am his only son who will take care of his empire after i am finished with school. My previous school was in another state not that i had any friends there, my dad, being the Influential man that he is, made sure i was always surrounded with bodyguards (men in black suits with guns) and no one dared come near me afraid of getting tasered or shot in the head.

Anyways, after a few calls made by my dad it got me an admission to a college in the city and thus, here I am.

I was snapped out of my thoughts when i heard someone knocking on my door. "Sir, may i come in?" Ramu my butler asked softly. He was someone that took care of me like his own son, always worried about my well being.

Before i could even answer he gently push the door and peeked in "Forgive me sir but you have not eaten anything since breakfast this morning and I brought you food." He said rolling in with a food trolley.

Damn he knew me so well, i didnt realise I was starving till the smell of the food hit my nostrils and i inhaled a heavenly smell that made my stomach growl loudly.

"Thank you so much ramu and you don't have to call me sir, Raj would do." I said jumping out of my bed and heading to my balcony that was decorated with flowers and vines blending in the middle it had a long glass table and dim yellow lights that could be adjusted to other colors with a remote.

Ramu rolled in the trolley beside me while i took my seat as he placed a napkin on my lap before he lifted the tray cover that revealed a scrumptious looking grilled chicken and pasta. "Enjoy your meal, sir!" He said with a warm smile before heading back out and I started digging into the food.

After dinner, i made my way to my huge bathroom to shower. Stripping off my clothes, I looked into the large streached mirror. I was tall with a clear fair skin, well defined muscles, I had short light brown hair and a sharp jawline with a full set of trimmed beard.

I turned on the shower and brushed off the day feeling the cold water run down my skin. I was going to make a new start tomorrow. A new college. A new beginning awaited as i dried myself and slipped into my boxer before diving into my bed and closing my eyes, letting the darkness engulf me.
