A short walk to my cousin's hostel with my relatives
This is my cousin's hostel and college (Forces) where they do their practice for recruitment into the army from Cadet College,which is taught to children from class seven or eight to 12.
We were going to pick him up from the hostel today because his weekend was about to start and he had three days off, so we came to take him home.
With me was my aunt, uncle, cousin, and a younger cousin, Jannat. I was visiting my cousin Ali's college until my aunt went to talk to his(Ali) teacher who lives in the hostel.Here I went to the garden. There are three or four grounds here, this is one of them, some small and some big. Where the children play games in their free time because they don't have mobile phones to use in their free time.
My cousin is away from home for the first time without a mobile phone. He was getting very bored here because he is not used to being away from his mobile phone at all.
My cousin is a bit of an introvert, which is why he was a bit nervous to talk to them and it was very difficult for him to stay here. He was close to crying.
I explained to him that to gain something, you have to lose something. If you want to be selected, you have to stay here and make friends with all of them.
Aanyway, it was his first week away from home, which made him feel very lonely. Apart from that, all the other older children were playing together and they were very friendly, inviting Ali to play with them again and again, but Ali still couldn't get easy with them and only wanted to go home.
His father explained to him that he would have to live in the hostel even after going to university life, so this is already his practice of how he can live here.
We decided to take him out for his appreciation so that he could feel a little freer.
Here, Jannat, my cousin, sat in the back of the car. Now we were going back home, but before that, we had to take Ali out.
So here we came to a restaurant, probably called Royal Haveli...🌚
Here I noticed that Ali had developed some confidence within a week.
Ali, who is a very quiet child, was not speaking loudly today, which gave me the impression that he had gained some confidence by staying at hostel. I was very happy to see him like this.
So here we ordered pizza and some nuggets.
Which looked very delicious
After this good grief, we walked back home and that was our day a lil walk to hostel and then we went home and rested.
The hostel looks very clean and what a big pizza after!!❤️❤️
The hostel is beautiful and your cousin felt happy when he saw his family. I've never liked the idea of sending children off to the hostels. It's a personal thing, though.
