MY DAYS IN UNITED STATES WITH CHALLENGE

It is 19.21 hours from here. A long distance, but it's fine that I have some kinds of stuff like my laptop and mobile phones. I can use them until their battery goes down. I completed my day's work pending for Saturday and checked some of my emails. I kept my laptop in my bag.

Suddenly something I saw in my bag, I have taken out, it was a book. I don't have time to read because I am stuck with work. I thought who kept the book in my bag? I saw that it is not my laptop bag its Anamika's bag having the books of students. Maybe I had taken her bag mistakenly. Throughout the years I never asked what she is doing, and what she teaches to students.

I take out the book. It was a book by famous writer Chetan Bhagat, Five Point Someone. I read two pages; I feel very interested. It is a story of the five executives working in the Call center and their problems, and they are the top students of IIT Engineering college, their studies under pressure.

Three students have different talents but they are forced to join the engineering college by their parents. One is talented in mechanisms making machines and many other inventions things but he is not interested in studying in college. Another one wants to be in the field of animal photography, he wants to be a writer who can write about animals. The last one is very afraid of facing challenges and running away from them.

There is a girl who is a doctor and completing her studies. While they showed problems faced by the IIT students, their passion, is wasted and they are forced to do studies that are written in books themselves. I read and read and as I read, they become more interesting. It was a reality for all the students in today's world.

I read half of the book and when I fell asleep, I don't know. I understood that when you read something time will go away, and out of curiosity, you read new things. This is like a woman watching TV series. But reading is better than watching.

When I landed in the United States the whole book is completed. I am working in a client location as a project manager. In our office, I am the senior in the team, and they sent me because, I made the blueprint of the program also, I made them.

While boarding the taxi, and going towards the hotel booked by the company, the streets are very lively, it's chilling cold, it is nearly 12 o 'clock in the night still the streets are filled with people. It is a beautiful night and all are enjoying the night.

I don't believe that I am in a country that is the 3rd largest country in size and has the 3rd largest population. The country of inventions and technology. It is the highest in IT countries. It is having a population of immigrants, and a variety of people coming and working.

I finally reached the hotel. I had my dinner on the plane, so I just wanted to rest. I quickly went to the reception and got my room key. I was about to sleep and started dreaming of the days with my family and friends. Life in foreign countries is very challenging. You meet people with a different mindsets. Some will see you in a manner as if you were their enemies. Some will love you; some will help you in a problematic situation.

You don't have the freedom to speak, in front of them. I sometimes felt like prey amid werewolves, because werewolves attacked the group. You are a prayer and they will eat you bit by bit. I sometimes feel like a slave amid the royals. Maybe all NRIs don't feel like that.

Every challenge we face is to gather courage and confidence. But we have to go through the trials, of birth love, affection, old age, and death. These things make us sad but strong. So, my days in the US are very tiring, I have to explain and work during weekends. After a month here I was fed burgers, cakes, and fries.

The sweets are not as tasty as in other countries. The food is fine but I can't eat them all the time. To complete the work, I have to stay for a little longer, but I cannot afford to eat the burgers and fries or sandwiches. In this one month, I cannot able to see the places surrounding my hotel.

The cost here is very high for all the products, it is a company trip but if I come by my self-expenses, I cannot afford the expenses. After a hectic week, I become a little free on the weekend. I rest for sometimes and then I just went out to search for restaurants with some better cuisine.

The country is amazing, with all kinds of facilities, rules, and regulations, it is a second republic nation. I walked down the streets, and I saw a small restaurant, which has some Indian and Chinese cuisine. I entered there and it look amazing from the inside. The interior design is a combination of Indian and Chinese artworks and the architect who designs them will be amazing.

I ordered one from the menu list. The order came, and I find the taste is as good as the Indian recipe. I paid the bill, and they are worth my budget. I returned to the hotel, and after freshening up I just sat down to check the mail, I saw the mail from the company to stop the product launching, and I was shocked to see the mail.

At the same time, I received a call from Ramesh. I pick the call and talked about the mail. He told after he left Singapore, someone leaked the blueprint to a competitor company, they are saying that you leaked the blueprint and sold them to a competitive company and they showed their new work to the media, and due to that our company stopped the project.

I was shocked to hear that but I am not done anything, he told me that I should stay for some more time In the United States, and try to design another program, but it will take a long time. I have two options, that prove my innocence or changed the blueprint. I am stuck that what to do or what not to do.

The next day when I went to the office, everyone was looking at me like a prisoner. I felt it is better to work from home and find the solution. The situation in Singapore is also chaotic. I thought of preparing another project, also want to prove my innocence.

It is a big issue in the media. After further investigation the companies concluded that the blueprint which is released is not the original product that we are going to launch, it is a different blueprint. They showed the fake blueprint

Due to the disturbance and media interference, investors withdraw their money we faced losses, So our company held a meeting with the network operators and our competitors' companies for help. I still thought who will be behind all these things?

I was suddenly reminded of another program that is slightly different from the previous one. So, I started working on it. After a week I called Ramesh, and he told me that, the matter will calm down in a few days if the competitive company joined hands with us, otherwise we will face huge losses.

I told him that, I am doing another program. He told me that it is not required, just to wait until the conference meeting was over. After a week a conference meeting is done and both of them joined hands together, we offered to launch the program, and they offered to provide the requirement require for launching the program, and the boss ordered me to continue working on it.

He warned me to be alert and do some changes and tell them to launch the chip. He told me to stay until my innocence is proven. Currently, I still have to prove that I am innocent but how I don't have any idea. It is another challenge for me.

If I am In India, I will be in a prison. Well with the help of my friends and boss I just escaped. The project is finalized they launched it and within five years the 5G data is distributed to the world. I have to now find out the person behind all these grumbles.

I received a message from my family that they safely reached Singapore, Mr. Prateek's family is also returned, but he did not show up. I am suspicious of him. I realized, how he come correctly after the blunder and mess were resolved.

Also, before going to my hometown, I handed him the blueprint, maybe I don't have any evidence but I suspect that the person behind all this is he but I don't have any evidence. I called my family, Anamika is worried about the news that she heard during her stay in India, I explained everything and made her calm down.

She is fine after some time. After the call, I directly called Ramesh and talked about the things I have in my mind. He told me he will get the shreds of evidence from the server and inform me of it. I have to wait for good news. I asked him how he is going to do that.

He told me that he has a friend who is capable of hacking the server and collecting information, and he will take the call data from the network operators and prove my innocence. I told him to be careful while doing things. He told me not to worry.

After a week the call, he collected all the shreds of evidence and those shreds of evidence state that Prateek was continuously calling competitors' companies and he pursued them to buy the blueprint and launch them to the media.

The continuous call details are there and he called directly through the landline numbers of the company. All the pieces of evidence are submitted to our company, and the company closed the case by demoting him to executive and sending him to our branch location in India. Our Company does not send him to the police because it will harm the reputation of the organization, and we get a black mark. Hence in this way, my innocence is proved.

They told me to return to Singapore. After three months I finally back to Singapore and my heart is not willing to continue my work in foreign countries. It is a time I realized that it is time for my return to my hometown. During these days I encountered, so many challenges but this is the unforgettable challenge by the friend whom I trust betrayed me for just a few dollars. It is an unforgetful experience for me. I felt my heart paining. In one second, he spoiled my image, trust, affection, and reputation which I made during these years. My dad always wants me to help him, I am the person whom he wants to take over the family business, but I want to earn well and stand on my legs.

I have taken the return flight from the US I once applied for a visa from Singapore, but it got rejected due to some reasons. After I return to Singapore, I have to process them speedily. The sky outside the window is amazing but the experiences I came through do not make me satisfied.

The night sky was juniper-purple. The sound of intoning bees filled the air. The stars were glowing like beacons for the lost souls of the world. On this night the sky is naturally black and hugs the stars as a mother to her new-born. But those beautiful sights outside are not looking good today, maybe I am heartbroken.
