Chapter 2 - one more day in my life (part 1 )

*10 years before*

In Mumbai Indraprastha University's freshman's welcome party a voice echoed in the auditorium that belonged to the chairman of the university Mr. Sinha was praising a student of his university Raghav, a 23-year-old student pursuing his MTech degree who was in his third year of the course. Mr. Sinha exclaimed " Ladies and gentlemen, let's give a roaring cheer for our computer prodigy, Raghav Sharma! This guy is the Einstein of coding, the Mozart of algorithms!

Crowd: *cheering and clapping*

Hearing these compliments raghav felt a mix of excitement and unease. While his accomplishments in the field of computer science had earned him recognition and praise, before this in data science, hacking, software development and so on but yet he prefers to remain in the shadows, away from the spotlight.

And then replied and said "grinning nervously, waving shyly* Thank you, thank you! Let's not make a big fuss about it.

And then Mr. Sinha without stopping replied that "Raghav, my boy, your brain is wired for genius. Your programming skills are sharper than a paper cut! Your contributions to our university and the field of technology have not gone unnoticed. You have a bright future ahead of you.

Raghav replied and said Thank you, sir. Just doing what I love, you know.

While Raghav was a master of codes and algorithms, his true nature leaned towards introversion. He relished his solitude, often finding solace in the depths of his thoughts. He was not one to seek attention or engage in unnecessary conversations. And Raghav's introverted nature also allowed his mind to wander into a realm of imagination. In the midst of conversations, he would sometimes drift off into daydreams where he transformed into a sharp-minded detective or a secret agent on a clandestine mission.

As the ceremony ended his four classmates cornered him . And one of his classmates akash asked him "Dude, you're a legend! Can you hack into the cafeteria system and make the food taste better?

Raghav said Akash, my friend, even my coding wizardry has its limits. I can't perform miracles in the kitchen!

Then his classmate Vivek said Congrats, Mr. Genius! Can you help me with my coding assignments now?

And raghav replied that Sure, but remember, my skills come with a hefty tutoring fee.

Then his classmate Arjun said*teasingly* The great Raghav charging for his expertise? I thought friendship came free of cost!

So Raghav replied Well, my friend, even geniuses need to pay their bills. But I promise you a special discount.

Raghav 's classmate Ravi *jokingly* said Discount? More like a quarter of your next month's allowance!

Raghav's classmate akash said let's get to the topic we came here for Hey, Techno Wizard, I hope you'll buy us all a treat today!

Raghav replied to akash *grinning* Oh, come on, guys! You know I'm just being financially responsible. But let's celebrate anyway!

Raghav's classmate Vivek said *laughing* Yeah, financially responsible to the point of being stingy!

Raghav replied to Vivek Well, someone has to keep us grounded, right?

Raghav's classmate Arjun said *teasingly* Grounded? You mean keeping our wallets empty!

Raghav replied to Arjun*chuckling* Okay, okay, I'll treat you all. But remember, I'm the one who'll be saving for our future spaceship adventures!

Raghav's classmate Ravi said Spaceships? Are you planning to build one with your coding skills, Binary Maestro?

Raghav replied to Ravi Who knows? Maybe one day I'll write a program that launches us into space! But for now, let's go home and prepare for exam. And then he left to go home because the welcome party was finished.

After he came outside of building and moved towards the gate where the security guard Chaturvedi was sitting as he saw raghav he stood up and asked him for his I'd card, raghav said,"o uncle this is my last year in this university and how many times I have to prove that I'm student of it", Uncle chaturvedi,"as many times you'll come and go from here", then he replied,"okay so, tell me where is your I'd card??" Then chaturvedi,"where is mine, no why my I'd card", he replied,"why not Mr., How could I believe that you're not a terrist who is living here to hide his real identity secretly and came to kill the head of the university?", Chaturvedi," Mr. Raghav you can go and no one will stop, please", and Raghav moved with a smile singing his favourite song, "Astronaut in the ocean" towards the main road to take a taxi .When he sat in the taxi the driver asked where he wanted To go to his rented apartment . The ride to his apartment was tiring because of the traffic

And when he arrived at his rented apartment

And when he reached his door and opened the door . the dog of the house owner came to him and started waving his tail, he smiled and rolled his hand over the dog's head and said," hey Mr. Maddy, sit down", then Maddy the dog start rotating, he said,"no, just go inside", then the dog sits down,"you're literally a brain dead dog", and moved inside towords his room, opens the lock, enters inside, switches on the fan and light, throws his bag over the bed, goes to bathroom washes his face, hands, and legs and came out takes out a cold drink from freezer and sits over his chair drinks it to get relaxed, after sometime opens his PC and starts watching memes and funny videos on YouTube and after an hour when get bored he turns towards his books and said,"the whole syllabus is finished yesterday, and my mood is not to revise those stuffs again", and turned towards PC again and opens an action movie "John Wick : Chapter 4" wears his head phones and started watching but after a minute his phone rangs, he puts the headphones aside and said,"who the hell has died now", opens the call but it was from an software company "Techno Forge" for the interview date, he became super excited to know that his selection is not too far in a Technical Multinational Company as the call cuts he goes brings one more cold drink from freezer and sits there thinking of the intrance date, when got selected then how his impression will suddenly reach the peak as anybody wasn't aware that he have qualified for that, it would like a sudden surprise to everyone and later started the Movie again and started watching it after the movie ended , he washed his face and goes to the balcony and sits to take look of the beautiful sunset and while sitting he starts to imagining himself as a detective who have came here to solve the mysteries beneath secret doors which are hidden from the normal eyes and not only thinks he starts acting like that wears his detective hat and his airgun which he imagined as a morden pistol starts acting like a detective and in between gots a call from the owner of the house ram shouting at him that he's playing inside the room, as the calls of him from the other room cuts he came out of his imagination and then starts surfing through Web about subjects related to psychology of a criminal or a psychopath or a mindset of a brutal person who loves silence and technique on who to fight so he could defend himself and body press points which can Knock out a person in a second and as the night came .he goes out for a walk on the lone streets at night to eats momos and french fries on his favourite restaurant "FACTORY Of NON-SENSE" as he finished here, he moved towards his room, opens the lock, moves inside, starts the fan, changes his clothes, drinks chilled water, pick-ups his eye drops and drops 2 droplets in both eyes and closes the light goes on the bed and lays down, closes eyes and after sometime goes to sleep.
