IS IT WHAT IT SHOULD BE
[Bian pov ]
It is already dawn. the sky has a beautiful mix colour of blue , yellow and orange. It looks beautiful but not for me because nothing is going to change in my life . It would still be the boring and plain day like it was last 18 years . As the it is the last year of my high school i just have one goal to study and enter a good university. with my thoughts i stop staring the sky and start to walk towards the bus stop .
I always past through the same path everyday to go school .looking around the old shop colourless and lifeless , the building colours were all fading away its the same as my life boring and colourless .
"Bian........ An bian ....... " i just heard my name being called as i look toward the direction of the voice i saw a families figure. It was grandma Jay . she is an old lady she had her own stall . she is not living with her son as her son had settle in the city and had his own family he never had came back to the village let alone sending money to his mother .
" Yes grandma" i said " bain thank you for helping me yesterday with my store and here some breads i know you much not have your brakefast yet .... here take it " ................... thank you grandma ..i would be coming today evening as well... but now i have to go i would be late, see you in evening " nai " ( grandmother) .
And i missed my bus ......... when i reach the bus station it was already late.... n I'm not going to get a cap or taxi now .... so i have to run all the way to school
.. and i was already late for the school the guard already close the gate ....
Uncle please... it's my first time being late can u please .... let me go inside please uncles.... and finally i got to enter . As soon as the enter my classroom i was so tired that i laid down my head on my desk and close my eyes. It was very noise in the room as the teacher had not reach yet. " oii bian you ok" .. i know the voice it was kai .... my friend since elementary school . He is a dumb head , who knows nothing except for playing basketball, he had never tried to study of course he is the last rank student ... but he is good brother of mine always help when ever i need ..... not to mention he was the most irritating person i have ever seen . " ya m ok " i replied without looking at him and not opening my eyes "but ............." as soon as he start to talk the bell rang and the teacher arrived .
Ok student today i would be giving you all the mark of the last test ......... ami ... ari .......................... " Bian " as i heard my name i went to the teacher to get it ... and i didn't do good these time ..... " come and meet me in the office bian , after the class " . it was not like i did really bad in the test .. but i got the third highest mark .... But it is never good enough for me ... i had always been the top .. and not being in the third ... i know the teacher know what is wrong ....... i just hope that he wouldn't call my family . After the class the following the homeroom teacher to the staffroom .
[IN STAFFROOM]
" Bain ... what happened to you is something bothering you .. that distract you from your studies....... you are really not doing well in the last few months tell me may be i would be any of your help "
No sir ... it's nothing... i just didn't prepare properly for the test ...... Don't worry i would do better in the up coming tests .
"you are sure " he ask me looking at my eyes.
i took a deep sign and reply " yes sir
..... sir if there is no other think i would go back to class " ....... yes sure... go he said go.
And as i was walking back to the class room i slipped and fall on something .... i was really not paying attention
" ouch ....... it really hurt " as i look up it was a can laying on the way " who had thrown a can on the way..... it is actually my bad day " i got up throw the can in a dustbin ... and went back to class.... we finished the classes by 4 pm .
As i was packing my books .... kai came " oii ... wanna go have fun ... we are going in a game center " ..... ' no' i directly refused " i have to go to help grandma jay " " bian why don't u come you barely hangout with both of us now" said amily . she also have been my friend since elementary school, she is a very cheerful and shy girl . " not today ami... may be some other day .... see you guys m going " and the got up from my desk ..... " ok .... bye... see you tomorrow " said amily ... " yaa bye " kai said pouting and looking at me .....
I got out of the school and directly went to grandma jay stall ..... i help her with serving and chores . It was already 8pm so i was returning home . And the building near my home caught my eyes it had been empty for quite a long time ..... but i saw light on today .... " may be someone had shifted ...... new neighbors "...
i went back home and washed my self up ....and came down for dinner .. mom was arranging food on the table so i just went and give her a hand .... dad was watching news on tv .." mom .. nest had not yet .came home " i ask nest is my elder brother he was 6 years older then me ... i already know the answer he barely came home early... he does nothing but just roaming around with his friends partying .. he was the most useless person in the family " mmm" mom reply without even looking at me ..
after that we had our dinner and i went to my room.... i was almost to sleep when i heard the bike stopping sound ... here he came back .. my brother .... as soon as he came inside i could hear him vomiting ........ And i know what was coming next .....
i could hear my father shouting on nest and him smashing all the thing ...... i had already got used to it ....it always happen ........ everyday ... i just want to escape from it ... it was like a living hell .
I just wish that i would also have a normal family , where everyone are happy , understanding and a peaceful, place where after coming being tired we can rest and relax ...... but it was never going to happen .
My home was where all the members get more stress .. and is better to stay outside then coming back home. It was not alway like this it all started when my brother left his studied when he was only 17 .
Actually according to me it was not home .... but just a building
