Ram's POV:(Ram 👆 in the photo above)

I woke up at 5'O clock on my usual time to my alarm sound. I turned it off and did my chores and changed into tracks and a hoodie for my daily jog. I went to the coffee machine and have my daily dosage of morning coffee, enjoying the city in lights through my apartment window.

It is very calm now, there are only few people on the roads like paper boys or milk boys, a few elders who are walking in the empty streets in groups, the elder people in this apartment do this everyday, they form into small groups and start walking and exercising along with laughter and with some jokes on one another.

Our apartments are secluded and provided with everything including gym, children's park, swimming pool, courts for basketball and volleyball etc., walking and jogging tracks everything, it's a gated community apartments, it's like a little society itself.

I bought an apartment in this venture a few years back and I'm still paying the EMI for the bank, i still have to pay two more years to complete the debt. As an attractive package of a little above one lakh, every month my half salary will be went to the bank for the purpose of EMI on the names of my apartment and car.

But these are necessary things, I'm currently working as a team leader in a well known MNC company. I joined as a junior and with in two years i promoted to be a TL due to my hardwork.

I'm 30 years old now. My father's name is Krishnamurthy who was a retired army employee, now doing a part time job as a proof reader for a famous newspaper company. He's a man of few words, i have no siblings. My father always wanted a girl while they have got only me. He adores girls very much. My mom's name is sarada, she's a homemaker but can do fantastic embroidery, she knows all the works and can help make embroidery in her free time for a small scale shop that her friend running. My dad always support her to start her own embroidery business but she never shows interest, saying she can do embroidery out of interest but she can't manage a business. She always told me how much she wanted a girl child to make different dresses for her, braid her hair and go shopping and what not. But my mom loves me very much. She said all her wishes, she will fulfill with her daughter-in-law. Now how could I tell my mom that no girl is ready to have a relationship with a boring person like me.

My parents live in the same city but at the opposite end of the city, it takes two to three hours for me to get to my office given the hectic traffic of city. I used to travel six hours to and fro daily, and when came home i would completely wasted and sometimes sleep without eating. So my parents suggested i should buy an apartment near my office, after a lot of pursuing here I am. So i purchased an apartment near my office which I'm currently living in.

Though it's convenient to go to office from here, I'm missing my mom's cooking like hell. Well it's nice to eat out and order swiggy or get take outs at first or once in a while, but eating it everyday is a difficult task and after sometime i got bored of it, i crave my mom's homemade food. Though i used to go to home in weekends, i need to wait for 5 days to get home only for two days.

I completed my B.Tech and got a job in campus selections in a company. I'm a simple man, i have average looks. Though I'm not handsome, it's not like I'm not good looking. But i have glasses, my big round black rimmed glasses as i have sight issues from my childhood. I look somewhat good but I'm a man of few words, and i don't know how to style up, I'm pretty boring as I'm not talkative, at the same time i won't allow any carelessness or laziness in work, i don't take excuses, that's why I've been called as a maddog behind my back in my office.

Five years back i changed my job to a MNC company which gives better opportunity to my career and slowly it makes almost impossible to go home and often my parents would come to see me. Because i always feel tired. According to them i somewhat feel depressed due to my loneliness, so they want me to have a companion and they don't want me to live alone. So they got this superb idea of getting me married off. Why? Because not only I stopped visiting them, i also stopped visiting my friends in the free time or weekends, because almost they all got married and busy with their families so obviously they don't have time for me. So here my parents trying to put my head in the gutter of marriage by their own hands.

Now I'm somewhat well settled in my life my parents want me to get married, they've been pestering me about marriage from quite some time now, actually from almost three four years. Now they're getting agitated by my behaviour of constantly trying to escape marriage, rejecting girls at the first meet with silly reasons, now they don't understand that, though i want to get married and have a person by my side through my thick and thin, but i can't risk breaking my heart, again.

Due to some reasons that happened in my life, i don't believe that love and marriage are something that's made for me. And i have confidence issues with girls in these things, other than that I'm pretty good with girls in any work related issues. And i completely believed in the fact that no girl will love me or have feelings for me, even initially if she has, she'll be changing her decision after spending some time with me, as I'm quite boring.

As the coffee in my cup finished i got out of my thoughts. I grabbed my water sipper bottle, along with my iPod. I put on my headphones and played some SPB (SP Balasubrahmayam garu) songs. SPB is my all time favourite and his voice is always very soothing, it gives peace to my heart. While listening to the melodious songs i dragged my hoodie to the top of my head and went out of my apartment to the jogging track after locking my flat. I put the keys in my pant pocket and started to jog peacefully.

After half an hour I stopped jogging and went to hit the gym. I do some pull ups and push up after that some wait lifting and some little exercises. After an hour spending time in the gym i went back to my flat to get ready for the office.

I reached my flat and opened the lock after that i kick off my sports shoes at the shoe rack and dropped my sipper bottle at the dining table. I went to kitchen and grabbed a water bottle from the bridge after placing the bottle back i headed to my room. I have everything in my flat like kitchen appliances, washing machine etc.

Though i don't use kitchen things as i can't even boil water to save my life, i can only know how to use coffee machine as I'm a person of caffeine. The kitchen only put to work when my mom and dad came here occassionally, so i bought everything.

I do laundry once a week preferably Saturday, and Saturday is a cleaning day for me, as i don't bother to clean everyday. But Sunday is a day to rest, i don't even lift my lazy ass up on that day, because i need to go to work from Monday again i have to save my energy on Sunday.

Every Sunday i lazily sprawled my whole body on the couch of the living room infront of a TV and switching channels until found whatever I'm in the mood of that day, eating junk and order take outs. But really Sunday is the best day of the week.

I have a 2BHK flat, i have two bedrooms, one is master bedroom with an attached bathroom, and the other is regular room with no bathroom, entering from the main door you have a large living room, to it's right side first you found the normal bedroom, and next to that master bedroom. The living room ended to the kitchen, through kitchen there is a back door to the flat which leads to the balcony of the house and we have an outer space of the left side of the living room to clothes hanging or extra purposes along the length of living room. And in the flat in between the kitchen and master bedroom there is a guest bathroom. Simply, it's a normal middle class flat, but it does have all the things we need and well equipped with cupboards and closets.

After reaching my master bedroom, i hit the shower immediately, the heat water hits my body and soothe the muscles that got tensed up from the workout session. Then i got changed into formal attire, i have only two colours of shirts in my closet, the formal shirts are only white or off-white in colour, but the regular home clothes and tee-shirts hoodies did include some black shades like grey. I have pants of all regular shades like brown, khakhi, black, beige, blue and their shades, which can pair with white all the time.

I don't know why but when it comes to clothing i simply don't know how to pair up colors with shirts and pants. I tried to try some colour shirts in my college but choosing the wrong shades of pants to pair it with got backfired and i ended up as a laughing stock.

I couldn't bother my parents to buy clothes for me all my life do i. So i thought to switch my style to which i can handle, so as a result there is no colour in my life.

After changed into office clothes i went to my fridge and grab the juice carton. I pour myself a glass and put the carton back in its place.i don't bother to worry about breakfast as I'm going to have it in the office canteen, I'll had to have my lunch there too. I can't go to restaurant all by myself when all my colleagues are getting their lunches from their houses. While they're enjoying their homemade food, i enjoy my canteen food, well i have no other option now, do i.

After that i stuffed my laptop bag with my laptop along with some files i require in my office. I grabbed my car keys and went to the office.

After the long day in office i have a coffee from the café opposite to my office and then i straight go to my flat and would hit the bed, I'll order takeout when I feel hungry enjoying TV and sleep after that like there is no tomorrow. Now i don't have anything better to do in my life now.

This is my daily routine. And as a boring person itself i got bored of my life very much to my surprise.
