I, Aakash, was in my third year of college near Pune. I was a hosteller. My parents were settled in Malaysia. Usually, during summer break, my parents used to come to Pune to our hometown, and we spent time together.

But that time, due to business reasons, they could come on time. They said they’d be back in Pune in 2 weeks. Our exams finished, and everyone was leaving the hostel for vacation. Since my parents weren’t back from Malaysia, I had to stay at the hostel till they were back.
