Alright, you can fly this once!

Passing out of school can be tough in many ways. First of all, you make a big step by parting with your friends. Then, there are tedious competitive exams. In my case, it happened to be giving the law entrance exams. Now, there were hardly any premier law schools in around my city. Now, by in and around, I mean within a reach of 500 kilometers. But hey, what the heck! My parents were willing to send me any distance away to get the best education. Hence, I attempted the exams after all those nights of pouring over books, study materials and guides. Finally, when the D day came, it came to me as a shock that I was going to shipped off to a place a couple of thousand kilometers away.
After all the hugs and kisses, I was finally off with dad to my new abode for the next 5 years. The train journey can get on your nerves, as it takes a little over 40 hours to reach this city from my hometown. As we got off, all I needed was a nice comfortable bed to hit into and all the time in the world.
Later that day, after completing all the formalities and procedures for enrolling in the course, we checked into our hotel rooms , squeezed out of every ounce of energy from our body. What more , to add to the woes of the day, was a sarcastically delightful news that our return tickets were at disarray. The ticket was listed waiting, and it looked pretty certain, not to make way. My dad logged on to the internet from his laptop, thought over it for a second. Flights were an expensive affair for us. He finished tapping the keypad, shut the screen, turned to me, smiled and said, ‘Alright! You can fly this once!’
