Train reaches the station. He looks outside. His face is revealed. There is a mixture of emotions in his eyes. He is excited, curious and happy.

He stands near the road looking outside. He ( thinks ) – “ Finally, I have reached my dream place, Mumbai”. Someone pushes him lightly. This young man says – “Oho! Brother you are planning to make my first day in Mumbai into my death day ?” Random man- “ Why don’t you get down and enjoy the crowd? “ . The young man gets down with his luggage. He walks outside while observing people around him.

He takes a taxi . Taxi driver helps him in keeping his luggage in Dickey. The young man gets himself comfortably seated in soft cushion seat. Driver starts the car.

I hope that I could make my identity from here. Rudra Roy, You will be able to do it. Stay positive!!” Driver- “ Sir, Are you here for the first time?” Rudra- “Yeah , How did you know?” Driver – “ Its been 20 years since Iam driving taxi in Mumbai. These eyes will never go wrong in identifying people who come here for first time . Their eyes do have a spark of hope , excitement and curiosity . I have seen many”. Rudra gets impressed. He smiles. Driver- “ Sir, I hope your dreams get fulfilled here”. Rudra – “ Thank you so much, Bhaiya”. Rudra gets back into sightseeing.

After a while , taxi stops near a apartment . The apartment is little old . It has 12 floors. Rudra pays off the driver and takes his luggage . He goes inside and talks to watchman. Rudra shows some paper regarding his stay at that apartment. He then gets call and he gives it to the watchman. Once watchman have a talk in the phone, he lets Rudra get in. Rudra goes inside and gets into the lift. He press 5. It is his floor number. Rudra always believed that 5 is lucky number for him. Even here he choosed 5th floor eventhough he had another option of 2nd floor was due to same reason. Rudra reaches his floor and get out of the lift with his lift.

He rings bell at flat number 500. A young guy opens the door. It is his flat mate from now . Rudra gets in and gets him settled in one of the room . They just asked each others name. The guy’s name is Iqbal . He shown him the room and given some basic details. Before Rudra could ask him anything further , that guy went to the other room. Rudra decides to call his mother. Rudra dials her number. Rudra ( on call)- “ Maa, I reached my flat . Iam all ok. How is everything there? “ His mother’s voice – “ Beta , take care of yourself . Here everything is same. Anyway you should work hard. You are there with a purpose and you should make us proud “. Rudra cuts the call and turns little emotional.

He lives here with 3 people on sharing basis. Affording a single occupancy flat is too costly in Mumbai. Thus sharing is the best option. This is a 2 bhk flat. There is two beds in one room . There are other facilities like TV, Small Fridge, 2 Cupboards in the living area , A water purifier, AC in each room.

Rudra freshen up and he gets ready. The guy who received him is sleeping in the other room. Rudra is thinking to go out. Since he didn’t want to disturb the guy , he writes a note and keeps it aside him. Rudra leaves the room.

He gets down and goes out. He sees a hotel nearby. Rudra is feeling hungry. He decides to have something to pacify his hunger. He haven’t had anything till now. After having his breakfast, he is relaxed. He goes back to home. He change his dress into home casuals . He rest himself to the bed allotted for him. He couldn’t have proper sleep throughout the train journey. He sleeps till 4pm. He was so tired. When he gets up , he gets to see Iqbal doing some work on his laptop. Rudra tries to befriend him.They have a small conversation. Rudra gets to know that Iqbal is working in a call Centre. He has night shifts in this month. He is originally from Delhi. Iqbal helps him by cooking something to eat . Iqbal makes him understand, where everything is kept.

By 6.30 pm , Iqbal leaves for his work. Other two comes to home by 7.30pm . Rudra meets his other 2 flat mates – Karan and Tony. Karan works in a advertisement agency and Tony works in construction company. They all get together well. Karan and Tony are very carefree people.

For anyone who comes from a small town , these things are really new and curiousity is at another level too. He saw many couples walking together hand in hand with each other. It was rare in his town. He did some shopping like some eatables , some essentials, 2 shirt, 2 pair of socks , etc. He found that mall charged too much for his small shopping. He just walked to different areas near by. After having lunch , he decided to go back. Way back to his new home wasn’t easy, he forgot the route . Thus he had to take an auto.

Rudra – “ That’s because you both don’t know how you feel when you are not able to do any job after being well qualified “. Tony – “ So you are in Full mood to work. Fine. All the best, Man”.

She gets into her cabin. Rajeev follows her. He then looks at name board of her cabin and reads (casually) – “ Maya Jaisingh, CMO” . Suddenly he realizes that she is indeed his boss. He gets up in tension and his regrets on his stupidity of not wishing her. Rudra – “ How dumb Iam ? My first impression!! I hope she doesn’t count my stupidity “. He gets tensed.

Rajeev comes out with a tensed face. Rudra stops him. Rudra – “ Can I go inside? “. Rajeev- “ Ok “. Rajeev goes. Rudra knocks on the door. He opens it slightly and peeps in and ask – “ May I come in?”
