I AM A MOTHER
"Ok so what procedure do I need to go through? Do I need to fill out some form? Or any interview or something?"
'Since I am already at this point… I should just grab the opportunity to go further..If I get the chance to be in fashion designing major then with my experience and degree I might have a boost in career and then only I would be able to give a good future to my kids and my brother..'
Lana thought to herself and continued " I would like to choose the major then.."
"What? No…!! You can't choose it" The president of the unni almost jumped up from his chair and said in a shock…
"Why sir? Why can't Miss Larena choose her major?"
Caspian felt odd by his behaviour… It was out of his character so he asked cautiously
"Look Caspian… Tell your friend that she came late here… All the majors are almost done with the number of seats they have… There are a few of them left only"
After maintaining himself he said again…
"Ok then… Can you please provide the list of the streams which she can enroll in?"
He asked in a worried voice as he did not want his sister to just take admission in any of the majors…
"Oh yes… But can I know what was the major that Miss Gracias was thinking about?"
Lana was in her own thought when Caspian elbowed her
"Sweety.. He wants to know the major you have in your mind to enroll"
"Oh..Yea yes.. I.. I will tell" Lana came out of her trance and stuttered a little.
She took out her file and handed him her experiences and works in the fashion designing course and then she took out her notes regarding Law which she used to study in her spare times as she was very interested in it….
The old man looked at her records and he looked impressed by her so he said in regretting "We are really sorry Miss Gracias, If we knew you were interested in these majors then we would definitely have made an exception for you… Or may be it happened because of our lack of information about you"
He said in a tone of regret and then took out a paper from his drawer and handed her "Please take a look at these… these are the only ones we have left here"
Lana quickly took it from his hands and they both looked at the paper intently…
"Well… Since you guys already came late we were about to give this opportunity to someone else if you would not have appeared now"
Lana's heart skipped a beat 'Was I about to lose this opportunity too?' She said in her mind and the old man continued
"I would have given you the chance to reconsider but since it already late and you need to be there by monday so I will only give you an hour to reconsider you"
He said and left them alone in the office..
They both looked at each other and Caspian said "Sweety… Let's go out and talk about this… Thankfully we still have an hour to think about it"
He said and took Lana to the most quiet place of the building
"Cassy… It's Medical Science and I don't have the time to read into in so much as I have two little kids to feed and I swear I would never be an actress, Let alone being a butler"
As soon as Lana sat on the bench she almost exploded from frustration…
"How about learning to be a secretary?"
Her brother teased her seeing her pouty face…
"Please dude.. I am already like this and don't make fun of me… I am not a carefree girl at this age...I have two little kids to feed and to take care of them… I had a problem entering the field of Medical Science or being an actress, I should have considered being a Butler or even anyone's secretary… But right now… I am more than that all things to do"
She said and looked at the wallpaper of her whole and said " I am a mother… And I am really happy with that..."
Caspian hugged her from behind when he saw her being serious.. He understood that these all things are going to take a lot of time to catch up in the mid semester and even after that she could not even have a part time job in future…
They were still racking their brains when a guy came running. Caspian quickly let her go when he saw a man running towards them…
" Take this… Our Sir forgot to add this in the list"
He handed a paper to Caspian and left…
As soon as Caspian looked at the papers, his eyes lit up and said "I get it now.. You should join my major"
He said and went to sit beside his sister…
"What are you saying Cass… I am not in mood to take you teasings right now"
She said and took the paper from his hand which he had been waving in front of her eyes..
"What is this Cass?"She said and looked into it…
"Think about it sis.. You can easily handle the business management major… Just think about it that I would be there for you all time and whenever you have anything to discuss you can easily come to me… If you have to team up with someone then you can easily do it with me… I would be there with you at each and every step to help you, to support and to protect you.."
He said and his eyes lit up with excitement…
Lana's tear started rolling out of her eyes as she had thought of giving up the opportunity to be in her dream university but still she was really very happy to be there and even her little brother was there to support her at each and every step..
