Why does परसों mean the day after tomorrow here, when I learned it can also mean the day before yesterday?

परसों is one of those Hindi words whose exact meaning depends on context. It can mean either:

• the day before yesterday, or
• the day after tomorrow

In this sentence, the verb जाऊँगी is in the future, so परसों must mean the day after tomorrow.

So:

• मैं परसों ऑफिस गई थी। = I went to the office the day before yesterday.
• मैं परसों ऑफिस jाऊँगी। = I will go to the office the day after tomorrow.

The tense usually makes it clear.

Why is the verb जाऊँगी and not just जाना or जाती हूँ?

जाऊँगी is the future tense form of जाना (to go).

• जाती हूँ = I go / I am going / I do go (present-habitual structure, feminine speaker)
• जाऊँगी = I will go (future, feminine speaker)

So the sentence uses जाऊँगी because the action will happen in the future.
