I would say this was my first Onam in college, almost a month after joining the college. I didn’t know half of the people in my own class nor any of the people of my kind. We had on duty for onam, attendance wasn’t taken into account. Bibin and Alex were only the malayalees of my class. Bibin asked me if I was coming for onam performance, at first I some how refused. For some reason I didn’t feel, itx gonna create some confusion and might pull out some bitter truth.

But In spite of all that, Bibin pulled me into it. As I walked into the college auditorium. I could see my seniors, all ready to Rag the latral entry student. We were asked to stand in a line and the latrel entry students were asked to come out. And 3 of us came out. Nelvin, vineeth and me. Nelvin and Vineeth were asked to say the bio data and they did it calmly. But when they came on to me. I was taken a back. I had a cloud of emotions and regret’s running through my head. Didn’t know when I was gonna blast. I felt a bit awkward when I saw my own Juniors ragging me. I am like what’s happening around. When Kiran asked me spell my Bio data in Bharatanatyam style. I didn’t know what to do. I just said I can’t. He asked me to walk out, and surprisingly I did. Unfortunately Tarun and his batch mates weren’t there at that time.

After a while I spoke about it to Tarun and apoligised to Kiran. He was taken a back when I told him I was tarun school mate. Well, everything went fine in the next day.

Probably the only reason I survived for this onam is because of tarun and his amazing set of friends !!!!
