"I want to be a singer and I will not listen to you!!" said Grishma,
"Stop that crap of yours, you have already taken a gap year and you don't even want to study anything after high-school?" said Grishma's sister,
"And stop wasting our parent's money in stupid things, you can't handle small pain? You always want easy way?" she added,
"Shut up, it is our own parent's money, you are talking like I am spending other people's money, why do you think? Is father working so hard? So, we could live the life he couldn't!" Grishma retorted,
"If you don't want me in this flat then I will live alone, I can survive by my own," Grisham said,
"Hmph do as you like, don't come crying back to me after you can't live alone, and who do you think is going to cook for you? If you live alone? Just stay in flat and don't do that crap again!" his sister said with come concern,
"I will show you!" Girshma said pointing finger at his sister,
"I can live alone and not only that I will be a famous singer and our parents no our whole clan will be prideful of me for next hundred years!!" Grishma added and left the hall,
I went to my room and started packing my clothes and my important things,
'Ring' 'Ring' 'Ring'
In the blue screen, I saw a video call from my mom,
'Click'
"Hello, mummy, I am moving, I will live alone, I won't stay with my sister," Grishma said like a kid who is throwing tantrum after he lost in a game,
"Son, what happened? Give phone to your sister, you are only a child, how can you live alone? That city is dangerous you know nothing about that city, listen dear, your sister talks crap, don't take it to heart." She said with concern and sadness,
"Dear, give phone to your sister, I will talk with her," my mother insisted,
"It is not because of that mom, I just want to be alone," I said,
"But still, let me just talk with her, ok?" my mother said,
"Okay…" Grishma said and went to his sister room and started knocking the door,
"What!!!" she screamed,
"Mom, wants to talk to you," I said.
'Click'
She opened her door and looked at me like I had stolen her favorite thing,
"Mom, did you had anything to say?" She said with some irritation,
"What am I hearing? Grishma wants to move, why can't you live together? Let's me and your father to be in peace." Mother said,
"I have not done anything, this shit head son of yours keeps on annoying me," my sister said with some anger,
"But he is younger than you, He is naive and innocent," my mother said siding with me,
"Yeah, Yeah, your son is the most innocent man in this earth, he is eighteen this year, have you forgotten that?" my sister said with sarcasm,
"Son, don't listen to your sister and just live in the flat and don't think about living alone, 'Ritupur' is very vast and very big city, you will be cheated easily and not only that I saw on Facebook one student of your age was found in middle of 'Vitra' river dead, that city is dangerous," my mom said with concern,
"Stop, watching that stupid Facebook videos mom!!" Sister and I said together,
"Girshma can stay, who is kicking him out? I will cook for him too, it doesn't matter but he can't bring his friends home and make noise," my sister said,
"Yes, son, your sister is right, your new friends are not trustable," my mother added,
I scratched my head and closed my eyes and after taking long breath I nodded and said "Okay…"
"But still, I want to experience life, I will live alone nearby sister's flat and that is my final decision." I said,
"One month, that will teach you how hard life is," my sister said,
"But…" my mom was about to say something but sister interrupted her and said "Don't talk mom, he really is not kid anymore, I am here you know right? I will take care of him, He is my brother nothing will happen to him, just let him do what he wants," My sister said,
"Okay bye son, I have work in a farm bye, Bye, and Ritu, Grishma is only a kid don't be harsh in him." And my mother hung up the phone,
"Grishma, don't get entangled with your friends just because you see singers and rappers smoking weed and roaming around with half naked girls doesn't mean you will have to follow them, you can create your own style," she said,
"And, promise you will never smoke or do drug okay" she said,
"What do you take me as? I will never do that," I said with utter confidence.
What I didn't knew was that this confidence of mine will be shattered so easily,
