Mission: Fail My First Year

It was a hot, sunny day and the residents of Park View Street remained indoors. It was a residential street almost filled with apartments. A bus stopped at the corner of the street near a small cafe. Two girls stepped out with their bags. They both wore blue jeans. The girl with brown hair wore a beige crop top. The other girl with black hair wore a black t-shirt. They both had tied their hair in a ponytail. "Hey, is everything ready?" asked the girl with brown hair, as they walked further inside the street."Yes Ri, I have hidden those clothes under the mattress." said the girl with black hair."Good. let's be careful this time.""Don't you think you are going too far this time?""Leela, I hate Indian parties and weddings because of our stupid relatives. On the top, even our older cousins are the same. Their mindset is so old. It's about time our parents stop sending us to such events.""I too get irritated especially whe

Ria was grounded for nearly a month after her great argument with her mother at the restaurant. Her exams were finally over and the results still had to come out. Leela came up for a sleepover.They both sat on Ria's beautiful round, king size platform bed. For the past one hour, they both were looking at pictures from their high school prom. Ria looked at them and felt very unhappy. "We had so much fun in high school here. In India, they don't have proms in high school. I don't know how a medical institution will be. I bet all guys are dorks.""I heard from other cousins that those who have to became doctors finish their tenth and immediately join a corporate college to get a medical seat. These colleges teach the syllabus of eleventh and twelfth very thoroughly. The students give a regular test every week. These colleges want students to study for hours and even make students stay for an extra hour. They don't keep any sports or other activities in such

The entire flight she had her earphones stuck with her ears. She didn't want to speak with the old lady beside her. She kept ignoring her even while eating. As a business class passenger, she could order non-vegetarian food unlike those in economy class who had only vegetarian food for themselves. For lunch, Ria got herself fried chicken. In addition to it, she also took a hot chocolate coffee for herself. She paused the music but continued to eat with her earphones attached. "Chicken! You are eating a creature that was killed. You should eat vegetables." 'I cannot believe that I am stuck with this woman here! She is worse than Aunt Anita.' Ria calmly removed her earphone and looked at her disgusted. "Plants have life. They breathe too and give oxygen to us. Just because they do

Ria's life changed the moment her parents decided to send her to India. She had to break her friendship with Leela. To study and get a good rank in tests conducted online, she had to isolate herself from everyone. Her entire journey in flight was marred by a woman who wanted her son to marry her. After arriving, her money was stolen and the cab driver left her at the wrong location.Now she sat along with Nancy in a police station of Juhu. A man jogging on the opposite side of the road had taken a picture of her throwing coconut and called the police. This man told police that she was creating a ruckus. Since the police station was nearby, the police showed up within few minutes. As soon as the police came, they called an ambulance for the cab driver. A woman constable in a khaki-coloured sari got off from a white-coloured police car and asked them to get inside the car or else they will be forcibly taken to the police station. Nancy tried to tell them the truth

By the time, Ria reached her school for the exam, several students and their parents already stood in front of the school's huge black gate. The cab driver dropped them near the school and left."Grandpa, you need a place to sit until I come.""Oh, there is no need. I will just walk around.""Are you sure? The exam is three hours.""Don't worry. I have my watch with me. You see that Xerox shop in the corner, I will be there by the time you come.""Okay, take care.""I should be saying that. Take care while marking answers. Read questions two times and understand them before you mark. Don't just answer it in a hurry."
