My friends and Mom-part 1-Accidental Exposure
My name is Rahul and I am studying in the final year of
school in Chennai, India. During the summer season it is sweltering hot and
sweaty inside the house as we don’t have air conditioning. Hence I go up to
the terrace to study under the light next to the stairwell. We live in a 4
storied apartment building and the terrace is shared by 36 other apartments.
There are about 24 such apartment buildings in our area. There are lots of young
students in college and schools in our area and many come up to the terrace
to study, workout or simply for fresh air, as we are all in the same income
group and hence our living conditions are similar.
My Mom works in the Government and has a steady 9-5 job and hence will help
me in my studies as she has a Masters degree. We have our own nook up in the
terrace which is hidden from others and we have a concrete bench to sit
under a light resting against a water tank.
There are some water tanks all over the terrace which hide us from the
neighbouring apartments and hence we can study in peace.
As this is a very important year in school and I have to take the
competitive exams for engineering admissions at the end of this academic
year, my Mom and I take my studies seriously and she gets information from
the internet and her other friends at work whose sons have scored well in
competitive exams.
