i got up @ 11 am..saw all were awake..some were drinking tea..some were listening to ipods..saw a girl reciting bible to a guy who just passed cfa level 4..i also saw a guy trying to cheer up the bible girl with his Pjs....anyws it was bright morning..all could see bombay's busy jam-packed local stations....gujju got down @ thane..coz usee Ac bus pakadke ghar jana tha..,, he made a promise that wo time pass karne jaldi aiega holi pe..train as anticipated slowed down @ vidyavihar and every 1 was ready for sky diving..and we all jumped...
i caught an auto...i could feel some sand on my legs..in my pocket..in my bag...i could see smiling faces hugging each other helping each other climb rickshaw.....i looked @ a small calender in the auto..it was showing 21 months of these leg pulling, love & care, tough times, happy times, togetherness and bonding..bonds which are stronger than ionic bonds..i also heard some 1 saying that only 21 days are left for convo....after that all mummy daddy, ashuiqs, lover boys, mummy dearest, pahadis, sarpanch,babas, paro and panchis, babes and baby will be dispersed...
auto was heading towards simsr..and i could c time flying away from simsr...i wish i could stop this time.. reverse it....and put the clock back on the date 15 june 2009...
i wish i could....
Lovely :-)
ReplyDeleteM speechless....
Sombieeeeeeeeeee...loved it...Though ur narrative missed the birth of sombie, though it missed the excitement of treehouses, though it missed the freaky apparitions at the flea market,though it missed the scary screeches of sudden brakes from cerain black wagon Rs driven by certain lean tall kota drivers, though it was skewed unfairly against certain non finance types who never had intentions of writing international exmas,though it was written in typical sombi style impeccable flowery language, its ok...not jus ok...it was awesome...It brought back the brine of goa and simsr back into our minds...Now that the last two years already seem like a dream that never happend and oft-seen, I wish the same as u...to stop this time.. reverse it.. and put the clock back on the date- 15 june 2009.. Even I wish I could...
ReplyDeleteThis is the best we have seen of you so far.. and am glad we met and have stayed by each other in our good and bad times..these memories will never fade. Missed all those who were not there for the trip..i wish they could come and more so i wish that these two yrs never ended.
