Boarding school part-1

Boarding School part-1





My name is ......, Was Sanjay Kapoor. I'm come from a respectable and well-off with two loving parents and two sister one older Kiran and twin Sonia. My whole childhood had been happy and pretty normal. I was more intelligent than normal, and used to ferly active in sport's until a heart condition I shared with my sister sidelined me in the seventh grade. Up until highschool you could say my life is completely ordinary for a boy of my age. Then my Dad got a new Job in New Town. Since my twin sister and i were just out of Jr. High and would be entering in new school anyway, my parents decided it would be a good time to move the family to the town where my Dad's new job is located. After selling our old house we bought a new house and immediately moved.

Soon after arriving however, my parents looked into the new high school for us twins and discovered that it was very poor compared to our old school. What's more our old town had two private school in addition to the high school. This town had none. My mother felt really bad about how she hadn't checked into the school before deciding to move. Neither one of my parents cherished the idea to wasting there honors student twins' education in such a dump.

Then my dad hit upon a idea. Since his new Job well paid, he decided he could afford to send us to an exclusive boarding academy. My other over the decision for most of the summer while my dad set everything up. Mom couldn't bear the thought of loosing to her two youngest children so soon( my older sister had already gone off to college), but neither could she bear the thought of us failing to be accepted to a good college we we hadn't received a sufficient education. In the end she agreed with my father and me and Sonia prepared to move once more.

The boarding school they decided upon was a dual academy, half boys and half girl school. Most of the time the boy's and girl were kept separate but there were occasional social function between the two and other closely monitored mingling. The two schools shared a common campus, each school having one end to itself and sharing administration and faculty building. They were called the chapel Hill academy for girl and old chapel for boys. If as two schools were completely independent. That's how separated they tried to keep it for the students. It was understood, however, that thaey were more lenient visiting in the case of opposite s*x siblings like my sister and myself. Since most of the good academies were single s*x only, and my parents were worried about sending us to totally separate school, it was off us to old chapel and chapal hill for us.

Driving to the new school was exciting. Sonia and I kept talking about what is would be like based on the brochures my parents had received. We hadn't had time to actually visit for ourselves, but the picture looked wonderful. When we arrived it was even better. The building we're old brick structure, but the insides were modern. Everything from the well kept lawn to the athletic stadium, from the dorms to the classroom told of the wealth and exclusivity of the school. Not only was a lot of money required to get in, but a difficult entrance exam (which Sonia and I passed with identical score) had to be taken. The results was a college preparatory school finer then some of the college's it's graduate would attend.

There ware drawback we saw as we were drove up. Uniform! The boys here all wore blue jacket, black tie, White shirt,  grey pants and black shoes. The girls wore knee length plaid skirt, knee socks, White blouse tied with green bow at the neck,  Short blue jacket with the school emblem then on and Penny loafers. My sister I viewed uniform and excited our new school.

My parents got me settled in first after registering both of us at the principle's office. Many other new student arriving too, so a friendly English teacher mr. Sharma showed a host of parents and students to the way to the dorm. After unpacking my thing into my room and saying a long goodbye to my parents I was left alone to get settled in. My sister wrote down my room number and promised as soon as she could.

I can hardly begin to relax when my door flew open with a bang. "Hey geek, what are you doing in my room?!" Shouted a huge guy as he barged in with a duffle bag over his shoulder.

I.... I.... I was assigned this room, I studderd meekly.

"Oh" reply the intruder, calming down a bit, "you must be my roommate" what's your name?.

"Sanjay Kapoor" I respond quickly.

Well "I'm Vikas Gupta" he announced and I'm your senior. You're probably a new freshman right.

"Yeah" I quickly responded.

"Geez! They stuck me with a freshman! What stupid luck!" He exclaimed as he flung his duffle bag onto the floor. "Look kid" I nearly got kicked out of here last year for beating up my roommate. I'm only back because I'm great football player and my family donated lot of money to the school but one more incident I'm out. I don't want to get kicked out of here, but don't piss me off. I have a very short temper! And I'm not going to be your buddy either ! I don't need a freshman for a friend. I've got my own, so out of stay form my way.

That was my introduction to Vikas and my new living situation. Things well downhill form there. Much as I tried to be nice to the Vikas, or atleast stay away from his way, I always seemed to be somewhere or do something to tick him off. His threat's sounded deadly serious and I was very scared for my safety. What was the school thinking when they let this brute back in after beating up his previous roommate?!.

My social life wasn't great either. The first week was oriatation rather then classes, but most of the students in the dorm we're Vikas's friend's, or atleast scared of him. So they treated me like the geek Vikas proclaimed I was. My small size helped convince them I couldn't be anything but a "SISSY" after failing to make any friends of my own I ended up spending most of the week cowering quietly in my room, reading and tried to stay out of Vikas way.

After almost a week of this I finally had a pleasant surprise. My sister come to visit.most other cross-school socializing was forbidden, but as I had been told they made exception for sibling Sonia looked great. We didn't have to wear uniform except for the oriatation lecture this week, and she had on new dress my mom bought her before she left. The light blue color matched her eyes and she's wearing blue tight kurti with black matching leggings that covers every part of body. She had her long shoulders length hair. I'm sure she turned the head of every guy who saw her walk in. Luckily Vikas was out of the room at the time. I quickly related my miserable week to my sister.

"That's rough", my sister sympathized. "But atleast you don't have hazing.

"What do you mean ?" I aksed unaware what the world meant.

"At chapal hill all the freshman are matched with senior roommate, like you. Only at our school first week or so is a kind of traditional intitation ritual. The senior roommate get to boss around the freshman and tell them what to do. They used to have it at the boy's school, but it got to rough so they stopped it. At the girls school it's more subtle. For example, my roommate has made me clean the room and organise everything about a hundred times. I can only leave the room when she let's me, and other than oriatation lecture, this is the first time she let me. And even at the oriatation lecture she forbade me to speak to anyone but faculty, so I haven't made any friends either.

"Gee that's bad" I said, but when does it end.

"Supposedly it ends whenever my roommate want to end it ," she explained" and not before. But most of the other girls are already through with it.i can hear them talking about it in the halls and after the lecture. I'm sure it will be over soon.

My sister and I for talked about another hour before she had to leave. She remained very optimistic about both of our futures at the new school. "Just put up with it for a while," she advised, " Vikas will soon get bored with this attitude and begin to loosen up.

She left after that within a minute Vikas came bursting  back in.

"Who was the that girl that just left?". He greeted me.

"That was my twin sister" I told him.

"For a minute that's was you in a dress" he laughed mockingly "you sure you look alike".

"We are fraternal twins, not identical," I protested and beside her hair is long.

"Your hair isn't much that shorter," he continued "and you look pretty identical to me".

I didn't pursue the topic . In a few minutes Vikas brought up new one. I'm going to sneak over to the girls school tonight to see my girlfriend he said "want to come along".

I was speechless. Vikas wanted my company.

"C'mon, do you want to go or not?" He asked.

"Um, well it against the rules". I said.

"Geez! You don't want to sneak out because of that ?" He exclaimed. "That's a slap on the wrist panelty even if we're caught, and I've done it hundred of times without being caught".

"Well, okay if it's safe," I offered I didn't want to ruin a possible opening to be let off the hook by Vikas.
