She opened her eyes and found herself to be in the hospital room, in Chennai Apollo hospital. She was 10 years old, and didn't understand why she was there. Her parents looked at her with sympathy and felt helpless. "Why am I here? I don't like this place can we go out of here?" Her mother said," Just for few days you have to be here, some medical checkups have to performed. Nothing has happened to you." "Why cannot we come to the hospital everyday and get the check-up done instead of staying here? Also, I heard the food is not good in the hospital." "Just few days more my dear child, the doctor want to keep you under observation for some days so that's why you are here" A nurse came up to her with a big injection and a girl screamed out ,"I cannot take this injection,it so big".

It was May 2005, and I was in Bangalore doing engineering in computer science. It was a time when everybody was preparing hard to take the next big career move in form of job/higher studies. I was all engrossed in preparing for GRE. I used to go to IMS at MG road branch every weekend for taking GRE classes. Like every other weekend, I was late and hurrying to get to the class. While waiting for the traffic to stop so that I could cross the road, I noticed an old lady driving a scooty. She looked very unstable while driving. She suddenly fell on to the road just in the front of zebra crossing and the scooty was almost on top of her. Out of immediate reaction without thinking anything I ran towards her and she was crying in pain. I tried to pick up the scooty but it was just too heavy for me. I looked around myself there were people on their vehicle waiting for the green signal but none of them came forward to help. I tried with all my might to pick up the scooty. After a few seconds a m...

But, she kept on sobbing and after few seconds she replied, " I want to see you, I need to talk to you." I told her to come over, and meanwhile I was getting all anxious about her and was feeling restless. After 20 minutes, she came into my room. On seeing me she broke down and started to cry. It made me feel more nervous and scared about the whole situation. After a while she said, "Aumio.. my only 6 year old son.." I asked her out of anxiety and fear, "What happened to Aumio?Please tell me." She replied," The doctor has diagnosed that he has lost 40 percent of hearing in both the ears..I feel like a loser". "We went to an audiologist today and we got hearing aids for him,We made him wear and he immediately removed it saying I can hear why I need this.This is making me and ...

You are confusing my feelings and making me more miserable;Listen! All I ask from you is listen to me. Don't talk or do anything- just hear me till the end.

Like most of my busy days when I starve for 25 th hr in a days time I came across a particular day which I still think about it off and on. I was on my way to check the mail box to see If I recieved any mails and meanwhile my mind was struggling so hard to plan out the whole schedule for a day.As I was nearing the place , I could hear the happy sounds of laughing, flirting and chattering.This hall is a busiest hall in whole of university campus as it connects to cafetaria, tunnels, mailbox room and all the residences. On reaching there, I saw a group of students full of life and enjoying a lot. All of them looked like a first /second year undergraduate students. Since,I am always curious of whats happening around me so I took a glance towards them to see whats going on. I saw a young boy with a stick in his hand with his back was towards me and he was surrounded by the group of students.
