I replied all to my mum as I dragged my traveling box behind me, the box making tumbling and racking sound.Phew.It had been six years. Six years ago, I had left everything behind, going and moving on for a new change which I had found.I had traveled to New York City, to study more on children and I had ended up become a child therapist. It had been a painful pathway with my mum but yeah, I had done it.The family members that had been threatening for child custody were all refused immensely after being taken to the court of law.

Alone in the empty common room, my mind was far from being peaceful even with the TV playing at the far end of the large common room.
