I got up and gazed at the clock for a moment. It was 7.

15, I can sleep for 10 more minutes I thought and hit the snooze button. The next thing I find my mom yelling Get up Rohan, its your last exam you dont wanna get late, I woke up with a start it was 8.00 already I had 2 hours to reach my 40 miles distant examination hall . I got in the bathroom and by 8.45 I was out of the house with my mom running behind me to finish my breakfast and carry my lunchbox. I rushed out on the road and briskly walked towards the station.

find something yucky falling on my head, as I look up irritated, I find a pigeon casually sitting on the branch with what seems like a grin on his face.
