House Under Construction
Chapter2: A dream v/s Money.
Hey Sarah! wan'na go shopping with us? oh I forgot you probably do not have money and you have to work part time as well so Work Hard and save for your university's tuition fees we are rooting for you hehe they laughed and left. Yeah this was my life after my family went bankrupt. Why don't you answer them Shall I beat them for you?Ah I can't stand them! calm down Roha (Roha: My bestfriend since kindergarten) It's okay I actually do not mind them because they are just spitting the facts. Oh girl...but they just can't bully you like that next time if they bully you I will beat them for you Roha said. Okay okay I giggled.
I started working part time because I am the only hope of my family now. My father couldn't endure the pain of his company's loss and became ill. My mother starting working as a shopkeeper and the money she earned was not enough for our family and looking at the situation of my family I ended up working as a part timer in a convenience store. I was doing my best to save money for my university's tuition fee in my money bank.
Two years later*
I was about to graduate from high school and wanted to study "Architecture" from "SKY University" which is really expensive and probably my family can't afford this university. But I worked hard my grades were good enough to get accepted to that university and I saved money by doing part time jobs but when I got home that day and checked my money bank there was not a single penny in it! I got shocked where did my money go? I asked my mom about it and she said oh that money Oh dear you saved up a lot! From where did you earn that much money mom said. By doing a lot of part time jobs I worked day and night for it! if you have my money can you return it please. I saved it for my tuition fees. But I used the money look dear I bought the new refrigerator, it was so hot so I ordered an "AC" and a new generator you know we are not used to load shedding here Mom replied. Whatttt! you know that how much I want to become an architecture how can you ruin my dream like that I never complained for money because you didn't have enough money for that university so I saved up but you used it like that now how will I achieve my dream and who will give money for my tuition fees I never said that before because I thought you had your reasons but this is enough "YOU ARE A TERRIBLE MOTHER" I cried.I went to my room and cried my eyes out all night. Next morning , on the way of my school a book dropped from someone's bag I picked up that book and followed that boy in order to return his book but I couldn't reach him so I couldn't return that book. The title of that book was "The magical things" but when I opened that book there were only empty pages there was nothing magical in it. I was already frustrated from crying all night so I threw out that book in a trashbin. At night, after studying while I was arranging my books I saw some strange book in my bag and it was that book that I threw in a trashbin in the morning "THE MAGICAL THINGS"...
