Collage Boy Yashu

My name is Yashraj… or you can simply call me Yash. I live in the Raipur district of Chhattisgarh. If I talk about my past… I have no one. Yes, you heard it right — I’m an orphan. I’ve never known anything about my parents since childhood… All I know is that I grew up in an orphanage here in Raipur. I never made any real friends there… I could never blend in with anyone. In simple words — I’ve always been alone. Somehow, I managed to finish my school life. Now, I live in a small rented room, which belongs to the same man whose garage I work at part-time. I don’t have to pay rent… nor the electricity bill — because the room belongs to my boss. My small earnings are just enough to cover my basic expenses. I’m neither a topper in studies… nor a failure — I’m just somewhere in between. (A slightly upbeat background music starts — the feeling of a new beginning) But… from today, a new chapter of my life is about to begin. Yes, you heard it right — my college life is starting. And this time… I’m truly happy. Because I don’t know what’s waiting for me ahead… All I know is — this time, life is going to be different.
