Parents

I can't do this anymore. It is already tough to be heartbroken, on top of it the never ending sheets and sheets of study material. Thinking about it breaks my head. Just wish I could disappear and lay on the bed all day, day dreaming things that will never come true.

Instead I am stuck on my chair holding an almost dead pen, doing sums that will never come in use for something I don't really wanna do.

"Kirti! Come out, Right now!", rage filled voice, hot enough to melt even lead coming at me.

"Maa! What happened?"

"Dinner is ready come straight out of the room!"

"So, how are studies going? Physics complete", father starring in depths of my soul at the dinner table.

I am goin through a heart break, I don't have time for this physics. Also I have 15 chapters in it, and school started a month ago, how the hell he thinks I am gonna complete all that in a month.

"Ah-", I don't wanna speak, I just want to eat and leave.

"When is your test?"

"I don't know maa, probably after vacation."

"Hmm. Syllabus?"

What part of I don't know does dad not understand.

"Teachers haven't said anything about it yet", how could they school just started.

"You should ask your teachers."

How the hell am I supposed to do that when nothing has even been taught yet.

"So..."

Before they could ask anything more, I ate everything and left.

They have always been like this, dumb not understanding anything. If they understood what am going through they perhaps wouldn't asked such stupid questions.

I shut my door and and laid at my bed. I picked up my phone to distract myself, then just threw it away.

I could hear my mother's steps approaching, so I quit the bed and prented to study again.

"Ahhhh....", I wanted to scream this coaching thing was just too much. On top of school, I was also forced to study for Engineering. It was a pain. I never wanted to do any of it, I just stupidly said I want to do something in Computer science once to my parents in ninth grade and now I am stuck here. I tried to reason with them, but instead I got a lecture on how mind gets distracted and it runs from hardship. I couldn't even hear what they were saying because of how dumb it was. After that I never talked to them about not wanting to do engineering.

His parents aren't like this. His parents actually know that there are just too many engineers in the world, and no more required. His also supported his art, and his decision to study it. Such amazing parents he got, and look whom am I stuck with.

Now I kinda feel empty, thinking about him. He made me so happy now he just makes me feel shit.

"Go to sleep, now.You should study in the morning instead of late night.", a softer preachy voice forced me out the hole I was loathing, I don't know if it was good or not. So I just said, "Yes, maa".
