Leaving Behind
Maya’s POV
Today is the day which I have been fearing for years.
I do know this day will come but what about my future, But I must do this for my parent’s happiness.
From a sophisticated city like Bangalore i need to shift to outskirts of a village in Himachal Pradesh a snowy place with all mountains surrounded. I have never been to that place in my whole life I have shifted to Bangalore when I was 3 months old with my loving parents. Now after my school I need to settle in a place where i don’t know anyone but basically it’s my parent’s native.
(Moving and packing sounds)
Amira Maya’s mother calling her out “come on Maya you know we need to leave in 2 hours, we need to catch a flight”.
Mihil Maya’s father “Come on darling help us out and show us your happy face”.
Maya’s POV
I know both are very excited to go back like they are waiting for this moment for the whole life. It’s a mystery I don’t understand, my father is a very successful Business man with 2 boutiques and my mother is a music teacher, they are ready to leave behind everything and settle down there in a village. But the day I turned 12 they said to me we will be moving to native right before me turning 18 and they never said the reason, I will know only after reaching the village.
Maya came out of the room smiling.
Amira asked “Ready to go dear everything packed”
Maya: Yes mom, I am going to get ready now.
Maya left to the room started picking photos which were left on her study table that were of her 2 friends, picked an autograph from the table and put her in the back.
Maya: Finally packing is over.
She took her two large suitcases and a carry bag and started scrolling them through the passage to the living hall and put them on the lounge where other several bags and suitcases were arranged.
After an hour all three were travelling to the airport. And at the Airport two of her friends Lia and Arya came to bid a good bye and wished Maya all success, after the immigration process and waiting on the Airport terminal finally called for the flight with teary eyes Maya left Bangalore.
In a two hour flight Maya’s parents were having happy conversations but she was very disturbed.
She was thinking about her life that was going to change. She was a very simple girl, a fair but a too thin girl who have been teased all around in schools but her two friends always make her happy. But since 3 months something was changing in her she suddenly gained some weight like never before and was looking very beautiful all where noticing her and most of the girls were jealous and got some speed, In a chase she ran like a cheetah.
After the flight landed they picked up a bus Maya Shouted “Where are you taking me too” But no other choice she got in to the bus. After a five hour long journey they got over from the bus Maya puked five times, she was not expecting something like this.
A Car it seems to be very old with a driver was waiting for them. Maya was very angry with all these things but simply followed her parents.
