Remember the time when you were fervent, crunk, full of choices, Confused about choices? When you were to choose among few, henceforth your whole life tripped on your choice. Challenge of choosing the right! "Excuse me! Clear the Queue” a male voice thundered. I was standing in a queue at the fee counter of the college to pay my sophomore year fee. I turned around, a tall immaculately dressed lad with the fiercely maintained moustache was luring at me, he continued, "The queue is clear for you madam, you can pay your fee".I saw the same face chasing me the other day as well. He stepped forward, propped his hand on the fee counter window. My face flooded with heat, I glued my eyes to the floor and rushed to girls’ common room. My heartbeat echoed to my ears. Later, I discovered he was the college president. Meanwhile, I mingled up with one of my cousins whom I used to visit quite wontedly. Due to a public holiday, my college was non-operational for a couple of days. I went to stay at her place, it was noon, we were watching “chitarhar” and suddenly the light went off. My cousin took me to her tenant’s house to watch TV, as they were having power backup at their place. As soon as we set foot inside the tenant’s house, Ravinder his tenant along with his other siblings were sitting on the carpet watching TV, we joined them. After a while, I sensed someone is gawking at me. I turned towards the right, it was Ravinder rolling his eyes over me. I asked my cousin to go back home while we were coming down the stairs, Ravinder followed us & called out my name, “You left your anklet.” (Ravinder said) Oh shit! I murmured to myself and I blurt and threw him a quick NO. Entering into the house, I asked my cousin "How does he know my name?". He is chasing you for quite some time and wants to pour out his heart. The situation ended up like a bowl of soup.                                                                                                                               PS: “Let your conscience be your guide”
