Author's PoV
Anna goes to the State Bank of India to get a loan for her mother's surgery.
Anna's PoV
As I sit on the chair with my next door neighbour Ms Leah, who is like a sister. in front of the desk of on of the clerk's desk, explaining to him about my needs of loan, he seems shocked.
"So.. yeah. I need a loan of ₹50,000 for my mother's surgery."
"I'm sorry Ma'am but you are underage to take a loan. You are just 17 whereas the minimum age requirement to take a loan is 18 years."
"I know and so she" I pointed to Leah "will be my co signer for this loan. She is 21 and she can be my guardian right."
"But she is just a next door neighbour. How are we even supposed to trust her."
"She is my cousin. Note that down."
Leah was about to speak but I held her arm down. I whispered in her ear,"I need this loan anyhow."
She replied me by saying that she could provide me with the money but I didn't quite want to take it as a favour as I hate favours.
"Ok Ma'am. I'll see to it that your loan is granted."

It's 10 pm now and I just received a message saying that my loan had been granted and the money was already sent to my account which I had created last year under my name 'Anna Roy'.
Oh! By the way, I think I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Anna Roy, a 17 year old girl who's had a life which was anything but normal. Wondering who Sia is? Well that's the name my mom calls me and my dad used to call before he... and a few other selective people.
I look at the time and realise how late it is and decided to sleep.
