TA was in his typical philosophical mood. “See guys” he
explained to the two unassuming girls who were trying to make head and toe of
whatever he was trying to say. “For example, The President of a country cannot
hangout like a common man. The more important you are, the less free you
become. I don’t think you ought to complain about lack of freedom in your
hostels. That means, you students of Kunjibeevathu are more important to this
college than the dumbasses back in MH. You understand what am trying to say?”
“Oh! Quite right. You are the man, TA” said the girls,
pretending to be impressed by the gibberish.
In the days running upto the ‘College Day’, the girls were
allowed to stay back in campus for a little while longer than usual for
decorations and stuffs. Hannah and Meena, along with TA, their group mate, were
sitting near the parking lot in front of canteen discussing how cool the ‘MJ’
of the Titans looked when the discussion inevitably veered into how girls in
college were treated like Prisoners.
