THE UNFATHOMABLE LOVE

The Beginning(1)

A new place for a new beginning. Amaryllis along with her family reached City A railway station. It was a completely new place far away from her home in exact words totally in the opposite direction. She was waiting for the bus for her new journey. She was tense and nervous but it was not obvious on her face. She was looking at the road without any expression.

 Suddenly she saw a yellow bus approaching and lifted her head to see the board and that was it. It was the moment she was waiting for. It was her college bus. She completed her school and now was going to pursue her aim. She breathed a long sigh and grabbed onto the luggage in her hand and hopped into the bus. Everybody down was pushing and pulling to get in the bus. But somehow she managed to get into the bus along with her parents and secured the seat. Her father arranged the luggage and sat down comfortably. Her mother was complaining about the nuisance created by the people to board the bus. The bus was fully occupied. 

The driver started the bus and the sound of engine roaring could be heard. Amaryllis looked outside the window and was anticipating reaching her destination. It was in the suburbs, 30 km inside the city. A long journey from the city. Her parents were also looking outside along with her. All three of them started the conversation. Her mom started telling her about the do's and don’ts. While the bus was moving they were looking outside and discussing the city having similarity with their hometown. And the journey of her new life began.

They were still in the bus and it came to a halt when some vendors started approaching the bus to sell their goods. Few of them started buying and others were just asking the rates. The bus was completely a hub where people from all the states of the country were there.

 Amaryllis started looking at the people and noticed people from the south of the country, north of the country and so on. She then started telling about her observation to her parents and they were keenly listening to it. Even they started observing, in the meanwhile the bus again started and once again it started moving. Amaryllis was looking outside and enjoying the scenic beauty of the city. She was then lost into her thoughts.....

The image of small hills entered Amaryllis' vision. It was a beautiful sight. As the bus slowly accelerated forward the view of hills were breathtaking. Amaryllis was observing this breathtaking view. She turned to her parents and asked them to look outside. She was excited and nervous at the same time. She was actually confused about what is happening to her. She was taken aback by the scenic beauty. Her father told her that for the next four years this beautiful view was constant in her life.

After around one and half hours, the bus slowly entered a gate and finally reached its destination. People inside the bus again started pushing so as to exit the bus. She looked at them with disdain thinking they lack discipline. Afterwards when only a few people left her father took the luggage and she and her mother followed with their piece of luggage. 

When they exited the bus there were student volunteers to help and guide them further. They entered into the auditorium which was converted into a market on one side and the other side was where the enrolment procedure was going on. They went to one of the counters and filled the necessary forms and then proceeded to the other queue. At the end of the queue, they received their enrolment id and then they went to the counters for the final process. 

After the completion of the enrolment process they proceeded to the market area. There were shops having all the necessities required for the hostel life. Amaryllis along with her parents went to one of the shops and started to buy the mattress, pillow and other things. There were a lot of people and due to the mismanagement there was chaos. Amidst the chaos they were busy selecting.

After finishing the shopping they hailed a cab to go to the Hostel. They boarded the cab and adjusted everything properly and went to the hostel. It was not very far from the auditorium. When they reached the hostel, they saw many families like them waiting for their turn to enter the hostel. They were the queue. It was sunny and they somehow managed to get in and completed the enrolment procedures and settled in the room allotted to them.
