Borivali, Mumbai.
Pinning the pallu of her blue cotton saree, Nandini looked at her reflection in the mirror. Applying kohl to her and pink gloss to her lips, she was all set to leave for work at 7 AM sharp.
"Beta drink this coffee and go... and why are you in a rush today? You leave at 7:30 everyday right" He mother asked in a concerned tone packing her lunch bag and zipped it up after dropping an apple and a chilled water bottle for her hardworking daughter.
"Mom the kids have exam today. I have to go early and make sure they are not panicking" she replied sipping the hot coffee.
"Chalo I will see you in the evening. I'll have to catch the train that come in sharp 12 minutes from now." She said looking at her watch and continued "Papa please drop me from the shortcut. I can't miss the train today.", and walked out wearing her regular strapped sandals.
Her father was already waiting with his scooty keys in hand to drop her at the local train station. And just as requested by his daughter, he had dropped her before time.
"Take care beta." He said and she rushed into the station nodding her head. The station was crowded with people leaving for work from one side of the city to other.

"Ma I am leaving" Manik said sitting on the chair in the living area wearing his shoes.
"Are..! what do you mean you are leaving... you leave at 7:30 everyday na... why are you in a hurry today" she said rushing up her work.
"mom yaar.. you know na every Monday we have a sales target meeting... so the boss has decided that from today, the meeting will be at 9'o clock unlike 10 every week. So I am leaving early." He explained checking his bag once again, standing at the threshold of the house.
"But you didn't eat anything Mannu... you should have told about this to me last night... I would have kept your breakfast and lunch ready by the time you leave. Atleast take this bread and Jam" She said walking into the living area with a box, an apple and a water bottle for him.
