Eklavya who had recently gone through the trauma of his parents being kidnapped and had been separated from them for such a long time never wanted to be separated again. However if he do not leave the city and decided go to any of the local colleges then his dreams will not be fulfilled.
As his mom said his dream was to go to the Rajgarh Metro City and get enrolled in the prestigious Grand Cultural University (GCU) and get a degree from their which he wanted to accomplish. Though he never wanted to leave his parents since he had gone through the trauma of losing his parents once but this was actually a part of life since in every great family or civilization the young ones had to go out of their home to experience life to develop their personalities.
Prakash said: "Do not worry son after all this is only for a short period of time and you will be visiting us in the summer and winters and once you complete your studies and get a degree in your specialization then you can come back and do whatever you want. You can either join Misty Associations and learn to handle the company affairs with you mother or if you want you can work with me I can help you get a good post in the Government office but for now you have to go and complete your studies and get a degree."
His mom Arati said: "Yes your dad is right focus on your academics for now and you will see your life will automatically fall into place and you will reach the heights. You can choose your own path if you have a good academic background."
Prakash said: "And do not worry about us. I know how you became when we were kidnapped since Mr. Smith had already told everything about your state when we were missing. You had a trauma. But do not worry son that was only a one of incident and will never happen to us again. After all I am a government employee with a high position and your mom is the CEO of Misty Association which is a Multinational company. So the security is going to be very tight. You just take care of yourself and only focus on your academic career."
So his dad Prakash had arranged for the train tickets which was scheduled after one week and arranged for an apartment for him in Rajgarh Metro City which was to be shared with another boy named Mohit who was the son of his colleague. Mohit who was also a good friend of Eklavya since they had been together since childhood and did there schooling from the same place so it would be convenient for both of them.
For the next whole week Eklavya met with all his relatives and local friends after all he will be leaving his home town for a long time and will not be able to meet with his friends for at least one year. So he wanted to enjoy himself thoroughly. He also cherished each and every day of that week spending time with his parents and feeling the love they showered on him.
The good times passed and the week was over just like that and it was time for Eklavya to catch this train to Rajgarh Metro City from the Green View City.
It was Friday morning 9 am and the train was scheduled to depart at 10 am from the Green View City Station which was in the north central region of India and the arrival time of the train on Rajgarh Metro City was at 4 am on Sunday morning which make a very long journey of more than twenty four hours. Rajgarh Metro City was in the East Central region of India in the West Bengal State so it was a long distance journey.
Arati said: "Hurry up! we are going to be late if we are going to stay here any longer."
Prakash said: "We only had an hour left so check if you have taken everything and not leaving anything which is necessary."
Eklavya said: "I have already packed my bag yesterday night and I have again checked today. I have taken all the essential things including the certificates."
Prakash said: "Okay so lets get going."
There was only an hour left for the train departure so Eklavya boarded his parents luxury car on the back seat as his dad Prakash drove the car and his mom Arati was seated on the front seat besides his dad. Since he had already packed his bag the earlier day.
Once they reached the station Eklavya saw Mohit already present in the Green View City station with his parents.
Mohit said: "Hello Eklavya! Good Morning Uncle and Aunty."
Eklavya also greeted his uncle and aunt and then they proceeded to board the train and arranged their luggage's under their seat in their compartments.
After exchanging pleasantries with each other and setting up their luggage's the two came out to say their final goodbyes to their parents only to return back in the summer's.
Eklavya said: "Bye Mom and Dad."
Prakash said: "All the best son. Do your best."
His Mom Arati said: "Once you reach their call me. Also notify me once you are settled in your apartment and call me every day okay."
Prakash said: "Oh come on Arati if he keeps calling you all the time then how will he focus on his studies."
Arati retorted: "You shut you mouth you will not understand the feeling of a mother when her son is going out of home for the first time. Come here my baby let me give you a hug."
Eklavya said: "Mom! Mohit is here and all the other passengers are here it will be embarrassing they will think I am still a child."
Arati said: "You will be my child even if you become the president of the country." and then she embraced her son and kissed her on the forehead.
Then there was a whistle from the train engine as all the passengers started to board the train and Eklavya and Mohit also settled on their designated seats ready for their journey.
