First Expression
Dhani was not very feminist and was not very good at identifying people..
When her parents left her at the door of hostel her mother and father both gave her self_realization and emotional space for her to cultivate her abilities and to set herself free as much as possible.. It was not really easy for her to live all on her own because she was not used to it and moreover she was totally unaware of the surroundings..
A girl who turned nineteen right at day of her joining and had never experienced or even expected a birthday like that ...
What could run in her mind while stepping inside the dorm... Well no one can imagine that but the people who have been in the same situation..
When she was taking her luggage out of the cart they hired for it, she looked at the building....
Her very first expression to the place she was about to spend her five years of life... Whole five years... Crucial years of her life
It's just like letting a vine growth under control by cutting and shaping it...
The building...
Well...
She looked up from right to left and then left to right and then down, she felt something strange...
A building holding a sign:
" Nurses Home, Since 1950"
A walled horizontal structure with typical civilian shades of red_brown colour with broken glass pieces on the top of the walls and metallic hurdles all around... Huge old trees popping up and dancing with breeze making that boundaries look very small in comparison with them.. She turned and looked at her mother face as if her mind was shouting 'it's more like a jail mom'.. Well she didn't want to hurt her mother because she was studying her sorrowful expressions like.., she will cry just by a gentle touch... But right at that moment she saw her father looking at her mother and she changed her mind and emotions immediately after that..
She looked in front of her and asked herself if she is going there for real or is this a dream??? ...
That was for real though..
She took her luggage and moved towards the checking point where she was going to experience her very first meeting with her teachers.
One of them was appointed there for checking..
Mam. Azoora __ A guzetted officer of BS19.
A lady with perfect hight and weight and totally beautiful even at her fifties, with a pair of glasses placing on her nose and a sense of seniority was there.. She was holding a paper and pen in her hand and was checking freshman year newly selected candidates from head to toe in a strict yet gentle manner,
She called,
"Miss Dhanak Shah Jamal Shah, roll number 21"
As she moved there pushing behind her luggage ..
"Good morning mam. "
"" Good morning. You are aware of the protocols here. We posted your joining letter and a list of accessories with it, that would be useful for you here while your stay here, at hostel . Have you received it? Everything is there!? Let me check!!
Little girl open your bags now? "
She was listening to her very carefully and she swiftly opened her luggage.
" Uniforms __ Check

Ok and now leave it there.
Moon, please take Miss Dhanak to her room and help her shifting her things to her room "
"Go inside now miss.... Next roll number 22"
She was about to go inside but suddenly stopped...
She looked behind where her parents were standing..
The couple waved their hands and told her that they would be there weighting for her to come back after the visit....
"Missy you are new here so let me guide you till your room "
With a nod she followed behind silently...
She was feeling a little insecure..
It was her very first time spending her day and night without her parents..
She was very nervous....
