"Dad, we want to take admission in Nielson college, Mumbai and even we have secured admission," said Aditi.
But her father continued to work on his laptop without looking at her.
"Dad we want to go to Mumbai", said Navya.
Now their father looked up at them. He took off his glasses and placed them on his table.
“What is the problem in colleges here in Kolkata?”Sanjiv asked.
“Is Nielson College here?” Aditi replied back.
“Dad, it is our dream to get admission there,”Navya tried to convince their father.
“This is not fair, dad. While filling up the form you had promised that if we secure admission, you will let us go. You are taking back your words,” Aditi argued.
“Sanjiv,let them go!” Aditi and Navya’ mother Sarmistha said.
“But how will they manage their stay alone?”Sanjiv was worried about his daughters.
“They can stay there alone. Let them go at least we will get some peace from these monsters,” Sarmistha tried to joke.
“MOM!” Aditi and Navya both yelled in unison.
“Fine! You trio decide what to do! I am going for a meeting.” Sarmistha went.
“Maa, are you not excited that we are going to Mumbai?” Navya asked her mother.
“Who said that you are going? I have not agreed till now,” Sanjiv said to his daughters.
“No Navya! I am happy but you know that I am busy with my NGO work,” Janaki said.
“You are always busy. You always ignore us, mom.”Aditi said.
“How can I ignore you? You both are my daughters. Accha, Bye! We will talk in the evening. I am getting late,” Janaki said.
“Dad? You again started to work?” Aditi yelled.
Aditi went near her dad and closed his laptop.
“I will not let you both go to Mumbai. Select any college of Kolkata,” Sanjiv replied in a stern tone.
“So you are denying?” Aditi asked.
“Aditi! Don't look at me like that. You can't blackmail me emotionally,” Sanjiv said
“You must be the world's first dad who is asking his daughters to crush their dreams,” Navya said.
“Fine, I lost. You both can go to Mumbai but,” Sanjiv’s words remained incomplete.
“But?” Aditi and Navya asked.
“But you have to stay at my sister's house,” Sanjiv said.
“WHAT??? Dad, you are joking, right?? No ways! I cannot stay with that creepy old lady. She always pokes me. I just hate her like hell,” Aditi was annoyed,
“Dad, Please we can stay there alone. Don't you have trust in us?” Navya asked.
“I trust you both but for my sake please stay there,” Sanjiv said.
Suddenly something came up in Aditi's mind and she signaled Navya to say yes.
“ Yes,” Aditi and Navya said together.
Aditigini shouted, jumping in excitement, and gave their father a tight hug!
Aditi and Navya were the twin daughters of Sanjiv and Janaki. They belong to a well-reputed family of Kolkata. Their father is a businessman and their mother is a working lady who owns an NGO.
Aditi Goenka, always lived the life of a princess. She was the real beauty-fair and flawless skin, sparkling eyes, and a smile that can bring the world to a standstill. Aditi was full of life and passion. She enjoyed late-night parties. She was the girl who you would talk to in bed not take to in bed. Her beauty radiated from the purity within her and made her look effortlessly beautiful.
Navya Goenka, a chubby sweet girl who was an introvert. She was not shy or meek but she preferred not to go out for the reasons only known to her. Since she was still a virgin she was often teased by her classmates. She was not at all old-fashioned but she preferred to stay away from boys! She was an extreme feminist who believes that all men are equal. She was extremely beautiful so much so that no one could ever get tired looking at her. Her smile was enough to lighten up the whole Kolkata.
They were very pampered and loved by their father. But they were always ignored by their mother. It was not that their mother didn't love them, but her work pressure didn't allow her to spend enough time with them as they were growing up.

"Bhai, say him!", winked Karan through his eyebrows.
"Wait! Why are you in such a hurry?" said Mohit in a low tone.
"What is going on here?" asked their father Mangal.
"Lucky, you say! It is impossible for me to say", pleaded Mohit
"Papa, bhai wants to say something", said Karan showing his teeth.
Mohit gave an "I will kill you look to him".
“Say Mohit! What is the matter?” Mangal asked.
“Papa, actually... we... have secured... admission in... Nielson college of... Mumbai,” Mohit stammered.
“What? You both applied for admission without my consent?” Mangal was shocked.
“Papa, we had thought to inform you once we get admission,” Karan said
“Papa, it is our dream to become a top fashion designer,” Mohit said.
“Fashion designer is a girly thing. You both will not go anywhere. You both will do the MBA and then join me in business,” Mangal replied.
“But why Papa? What's the problem? It's our life and it's the choice of our carrier,” Mohit replied.
“This is my home, you both are staying here so you have to follow my rules,” Mangal replied in an authoritative tone.
“You want us to live our lives your way? That's dictatorship. I am not going to accept it,” Karan said.
“Karan! What did you say? Dictatorship? Do you have any justification for that?” Mangal said.
“You always taught us in childhood to follow our heart and today you are forcing us to do what you want?” Mohit said.
“Bhaisa(brother-in-law), let them go, they are mature enough to make their own decisions,” Sujata suggested.
“Haan bhai(Yes brother), Ram, Mangal’s brother said.
“But will they manage there alone?” Mangal said.
“So papa, you have no problem in becoming a fashion designer, you are just worried for us,” Karan asked.
“Uff!! Papa!! Sometimes you just become kiddo,” Karan said.
“I am feeling very tired. I am going to sleep.” Mangal tried to avoid the conversation.
“Bhai, do something,” Karan nudged at Mohit.
“Wait! I know what to do”, Mohit said.
Mohit went to Mangal's room and saw him holding a photo. Seeing Mohit, Mangal wiped his tears.
“So you are crying alone?” Mohit said when he went near him.
“No, Something went in my eyes,” Mangal tried to wipe his tears.
“Papa, I know why you are not letting us go. You are afraid to be lonely. But trust me papa we will never forget you. and still, if you don't want us to go, we will not,” Mohit said.
“No, I can't impose myself on you. You both can go. I will talk with the broker”, Mangal said.
“ Wooww! I knew papa that you will finally agree.” Karan was excited.
Mohit, Karan, and Mangal hug each other. Ram and Sujata smile seeing them.
Mangal Jindal was a businessman of Kolkata. He loved his family a lot. But after his wife Anarnapurna Jindal passed away 6 years ago due to cancer, he was scattered from within. He feared Mohit and Karan going away from him.
Mohit Jindal had a charming personality. Girls would go gaga over him. He loved his father and brother very much. He was very caring and possessive about his close ones. Everyone wondered how he was still single. He partied hard and was a modern guy but he always gave first preference to his family.
Karan Jindal was a smart and witty boy with an extremely good sense of humor. He was extremely lazy. He was polite in nature. He was a part freak. His brother and father meant the world to him.
Finally, four of them were going to fulfill their dreams.
All that they were doing was only- FOR YOU dreams!
