Jhanvi's POV:-

"Sheesh! I'm gonna be late"(I don't curse so sheesh = Sh*t)

I scramble out of bed and... it's 8:10am . College starts at 9am. Great!(sarcastic).

I brush my teeth, take a quick shower, and pick out a simple light pink kurti and pair it with blue jeans.I quickly do a loose braid paired with a watch and some cute sa bangles to go with my look. I grab my bag and throw my phone in.

"Maa, I'm leaving" I say to which she replies,

"Eat the dosa and go"

"But I'll be late!"

"Kha ke jaa" (Eat and go)

"But-"

"No buts. Eat"

"Fine..." I quickly stuff the food into my mouth and leave with a quick bye to mom, dad and my sis who is older than me by 2 years.

I drive to school on my scooty so it takes 15 minutes. First day of second year and I'm 10 minutes late already. I quickly find my bestie aka Aradhya.

"Januu, what took you so long? I thought u got kidnapped on your way"

I said "Which crazy person would do that to me except you?" with a roll of my eyes.

She slapped my name lightly and laughed. I love this girl. We've only known each other for 1 year but we bonded. She's my soul sister.

After some chatting I go find my class and am of course met with a glare from my professor. I take a seat and try to focus. I usually study well but I'm getting distracted today.'What am I doing?Focus Jhanvi!'I mentally scold myself.

All my classes go by in a blur and I'm back with Aradhya. We were walking out of campus together when-

"Pani Puri!" Aradhya said. She loves it. We stop to have some.

We chat some more and then part ways as we live in opposite direction. I was walking to my scooty when I felt a presence behind me. I turned around and dodged slightly. The man was well built and was trying to knock me out. I usually freeze up but for some reason I managed to dodge. He tried to grab my hair but I kneed him in the balls. I hoped it would give me time to run but he recovered and slapped me, the beach is going to pay for that.I feigned a left move but moved to the right and hit him in the face with all the strength I had. I think I broke his nose. Next step:Run because if he caught me, I don't want to think about that. Thanks to my younger self who watched self-defence videos. I was about to run when someone pressed something to my face. Before I know it, my consiousness was fading.
