6 YEARS AFTER,

PRESENT....

It's every body's wish to go to HARVARD COLLEGE and fulfil their dreams. Harvard is the most oldest and highest learning institutions in United States. I am the luckiest that I can fulfill my dream. I entered my drom just to find another mate whom I need to share with.There was a girl standing in,She turned and faced me making her presence valuable.We both got shocked seeing each other.

"You"we both shout in union.

"What in the world are you doing here?"I said loudly.

"The same thing as you"she said in a sarcastic way.

"Unfortunately we have to share the drom how come destiny become so unfair to me"she said looking up making puppy face.

"You'r saying like I am really happy to be your mate, It'll be the last thing I want,"I said while looking at her annoyingly.

"I can't take this anymore. I will make sure to change my roommate as soon as possible,"I said and left the dorm.

RACHEL POV

The girl JESSICA MACALL is an absolute human version of bittergourd.The unpleasant meeting of us in highschool made us like this.

6 MONTHS AGO

I was regularly visiting the music room after the sudden disappearance of my friends. The memories I have in that room were enough to keep me alive and at peace during tough times.

One day I was passing through a music room when I heard a piano is playing, is really unusual nobody goes to music room. I got curious and opened the door and saw an innocent girl with short height and jet black hairs,grey eyes with glasses on she was thin by her figure and cute by her looks, I stopped staring at her and shouted.

"What the hell are you doing here?"I barked and she dropped the piano in fear. I don't know why I did that and what made me that much angry.

She stared and looked at me and said "I am Jessica Macall I was playing some piano"

" I don't care what your name is,I care is what are u doing here? Nobody is allowed here. Care to explain."I said rudely.

"I am sorry I don't know that. I saw instruments so I came to play them." she said softly.

"Don't act innocent and get out before I kick you out"I said pointing at the door.

"Excuse me I don't know why you are in such a bad mood but please don't spit it out on me and don't tell me what to do I can do it by myself" she said after losing her calm.

"I am an arrogant bitch" I said and pushed her outside the room by which she fell and hit her head.

She complained to the principal and he warned both of us and punished me for not allowing me to go in the music room anymore.After that day we vowed not to see each other faces again.

JESSICA POV

I was very happy this morning,going to Harvard was on of my dreams which finally got fulfill. My elder sister,JENNIFER is already here she is always so supportive me. I belong to a happy family, but the picture of my happy family always left in complete coz my parents live in abroad and visit us twice in a year but I never mind tough there are people living without there parents too so I am happy with it.

When I see Rachel and find out I have to share a room with the person whom I dislike the most,if our meeting in high school was pleasant as weather right now then definitely I like the idea of living with her.

***********************

"No rooms are available and you can't exchange the rooms, it's not our policy,"she said and I left for my dorm.

"Rooms are not available and I am stuck here with you"I said, mocking her.

"Congratulations you are stuck with the most amazing person on the planet"she answered sarcastically.

"Oh don't be over confident huh it's a last thing I want to happen in my life"I answered

After our silly arguments we got tired so I said after giving up "okay as we have to stay here together for damn 2 years  so it's better not to fight and behave like adults"

"I will try to behave one"I answered smiling.

It was our first day in college the rules and regulation were given to us I was admiring the college when my eyes spot something the flood of memories start flashing in my mind seeing the music room. I went in and started playing guitar when suddenly the door get locked  and lights got dim and I started sweating and my breathing get heavier each passing minute.

"Help"I shouted and fell down.The flashes of the dark room started hitting my mind. My eyes started watering. My whole body was in fear. I don't know what is happening,after a minute the door opened and I felt like sameone just given me my life back.

"You okay,"Jessica asked offering me water.I was looking at her shockingly, I still wasn't out of trauma. She patt at my back and hugged me and I don't know why and how I started crying on her shoulder she didn't say a word and comforted me. She appeared as a life savier at the moment and I forgot  all the fights and accepted her as my friend.

"I am fine Jessica, Thankyou so much I am feeling better"I said with a smile.

"What actually happened?"she asked worriedly.

"I don't know...I can say that I have fear of being in dark and enclosed places."I said.

"I don't have a beautiful past...It's drastic... It's flashes haunt me like a nightmare"I added

"You need to believe in hope"she said while hugging me.

"Hope"I chuckled " because of believing that i lost all the remaining things of happiness in my life".I smiled.

"Listen you know what an interesting part about hope is when life shut one door on you it makes you believe in plenty of open doors."she said making me understand her point. "It's not necessary that if it went wrong 100th time it's gonna go wrong 101th time to,Positivity is the key to success and there is always a reason for whatever happens."she said with a bright smile.

"Friends"I said.

"Sure"she answered.

KRYSTAL POY

"WHAT A SHAME WHEN SOMEONE STRONG USE HIS STRENGTH TO HARASS A WEAK PERSON RATHER THEN TO PROTECT THEM"

After alot of discussion, My parents finally allowed me to go for Harvard College. Going to Harvard is a dream of thousand people here but I am not one of them. I just want to come as far as I can from my parents, don't take me wrong it's not that I don't love them or my parents don't love me it's just they become to much possessive after my brother got missed 7 years ago in front of their eyes. I totally understand their worry and possessiveness towards me but it doesn't mean they will  put restrictions on me,that's why I end up here. I am standing in corridor looking people passing by smiling chattering. I am ready for my new start but from nowhere thinking of my fear was  making me weak. I shrug myself and start walking with hope that I don't have to face it here. Does that really happen what u wish for?

**********************

We were walking in the corridor and suddenly a girl stopped us and asked about the information counter. Her appearance was good.Tall height,long curly hair,brown eyes with glasses on.She was medium in figure and her voice was sweet. I don't know what happened at that time. We only thought about one thing that she is new. Let's have some fun with her and annoy her, which people count as bullying.

"So you are new,right?"she nodded on which we smirked and moved towards her like a predator moving towards her prey.

"The information room is over there no there"I said and laughed then I took her bag and emptied a glass of coffee on it.

She took her bag and said "I'll find by myself"Jessica stopped her way and said "Attitude to us wrong move darling"and I splash water on her face and push her aside then we walked away.

KRYSTAL POV

"I HATE WHEN THEY LET THE BULLY CONQUER THEM"

I am sitting on stairs thinking of what happened earlier, it's not new for me but whenever it's happens it's traumatize me.I want to stand up for myself but I just can't my whole body freeze everytime. The thing I was running from and thought of a new start it's appeared in front of me again when I get rid of my this damn weakness my eyes are continuously flowing and I hide my face in my arms and closed my eyes.
