Chapter-1

It was 6:00am in the morning. My morning alarm began to ring and I woke up from half sleep. I went to the balcony to get some fresh air. It was the first day of my school after a long summer vacation and I was promoted to 10th grade. I was excited of course, after all I was going to see my friends after so long, but even tired as I'll have to wake up early in the morning after so long everyday now.

After 5 minutes, I heard my mom calling out for me in the kitchen, " Natasha! You up? Get ready quickly and come down for breakfast." " yes mom. Coming." I got ready in half an hour and went downstairs in the living room for breakfast. The noodles for breakfast was ready and smelled heavenly. ( Heavenly is my favourite word.) My mom was packing sandwiches for my lunchbox.

" So, all set for the first day?" My mom asked with a smile. "Yup!" I replied back. "Should I drop you to school?" My father asked while coming downstairs. " No, I am leaving in 10.. anyways." I said with a smile.

So, they are my parents. Raman and Namrata Sharma. We are living here in Sydney for like 10 years now. I was somewhat 4 years old when we shifted here from India. My parents are both engineers and works in a multinational company. They are very friendly that way but when it comes to career talks then they'll have lots to say. I was told from the very beginning that that I should do something related to science field and nothing other than that.

According to them, only engineers and doctors and any science related field, only they make the most money. My brother Aryan is studying Software engineering in a renowned university in New York. He is 19 years old. I sometimes wonder that am I even their biological child, as I am so different from them and so not interested in Science and Maths. I was an average student in academics, but

very good in other extra-curricular activities. The best recognition I got from my school was for my writing skills. I had won many competitions and even used to write articles for the school magazine.

I finished my breakfast and put my lunchbox in the bag. "Bye" I said and hugged my mom and Dad and left. My school was in 8-10 mins walking distance. After 2 minutes, I heard a voice from back. "Why didn't you call me before you left you idiot?"
