CHAPTER 2

FLY HIGH AVIATION ACADEMY

I reached my destination soon :

FLY HIGH AVIATION ACADEMY


I was going to pursue my CPL - Commercial Pilot Licensing course in here. My father escorted me to the campus and after I had checked into my hostel room, he left for Delhi soon. The old man had made sure that his precious daughter was safe, so, he returned back.

After settling up in my hostel room, I started reading a novel. I was engrossed in it when a girl came in.

5 feet d inches tall, perfect figure, and easily one of those drop-dead gorgeous ones .

We girls do categorise each other like that and that too in an instant.Sounds creepy,but, probably this ability owes to our good observation skill!

She made her way in and it was probably then she noticed me for the first time.

"Hi! I am your roomy, Sonia Avasthy... 18 years of age," she spoke out confidently and waited for me to come out with an introduction too.

Obviously, I was startled by her sudden invasion on my privacy. I took some time to come back to myself and fumbled for words. I finally came out with these words, "Shirene D'souza , same age."

Sonia gave me one of her prettiest smile which I duly returned back.

Though I can bet, mine was no match in front of hers.

Few hours passed and no one spoke. I was glued onto my novel and Sonia seemed busy un-packing.

'I am done with my stuff and I am pretty hungry right now. Are you coming down with me to the cafe?' Sonia enquired.

'No, I am fine. You go on,' I spoke half-heartedly.

"Feeling home-sick?" she asked

And then my fear came back. I can't let them know that I am a small home-sick kid. Of course not , I would be a laughing stock in front of all.

So NATURALLY I lied.

'No, I am pretty fine,' I lied trying hard to cover up my feelings and I guess I did a pretty nice job because she finally DID leave.
