Episode#4:
   "SM College of arts was the best those days and i got a merit seat there.But all i was worried about was to leave my parents and stay in hostel. I wanted to be a part of this college too.So i had no other option. Girls were not allowed to stay in PG's or take apartments like these days. With half heart, i went to hostel. It was Day#1, i felt alone and had thoughts surrounded by my parents, How they usually take care of me etc. I ruled my home and i was the queen of my home. That fine evening, i never had a single person to ask whether i had my dinner. I was filled with emptiness which was very new to me. I hated everything and everyone around me. I was in a three sharing room. The only thing that gave me relief was the view of mountains and nature around my college. whenever i opened the window of my room, i could see only the beautiful mountains outside, which gave me a peace feel. It had three mountain ranges in which one small mountain was in between two bigger ones. Every time when i see that, i used to think that as my family. The tiny one was me and the other two mountains were my parents. When i felt low, i used to talk to the mountains and share the happenings without bothering my surrounding". "Meera ma..How about the phones..you could have contacted grandma and grandpa right through phone ?". "Sanju, we never had mobiles those days. There was only one landline phone in my hostel and every Sunday we will be allowed to talk to our parents for ten mins maximum. And we were only in first year, so we had many extra rules to be followed. It was Day#5, i was talking to the mountains as usual. Some body was knocking the door from outside. I told that the door was just closed without a lock and started to continue talking to mountains. "Are you Meera?", asked the two girls who stepped in my room, giving a tapered look. "Yes i am..May i know who you are?". "One girl was wearing a tight jean and a sleeveless top. Another one was wearing a skirt and top. I felt so weird seeing the girls, as i did not know how the girls would dress in cities." Is there some one else in the room along with you, Because that we heard your voice like talking to a person". "Excuse me..Can you please let me know who are you and then ask me these details?". "Oh!! Sorry..I am Minu and she is Anjali. We have joined the college just now and i know we are late by 4 days. We got our call letters very late. So we will be sharing this room with you and basically we are your roomies". "Hi Minu and Anjali, So nice to meet you. And you have missed the portions of the past four days. Economics classes are started. Math classes seem to be very good". "What? seriously?..Omg..you seem to be a nerd, you are very studious unlike us. So dont worry, Now you are one among us right? you will feel the difference in you very soon..my dear Meera.." the girls giggles looking at each other. They seemed to be more friendly and jovial..Very expressive they were. Likewise my college life started. And our friendship began with that Hi".
