A week after I got stood up by my friend, My sister told me that one of her batch mates wanted to me...at first I was confused why would a junior wanna meet a pass out...then it struck me I had an old friend in her batch....she was one of my very good friends during school days though being three years junior to me we always got along pretty well. So I called her up asking if she was free in the evening...she said she was and so we decided to meet up at a coffee shop in a nearby market. I dint wanted to meet her coz we had had a falling out which was one sided that is from my side... But I guess what the hell, it won’t hurt to give a try, after all she had be the one person who had constantly kept in touch while I was in Pune, through text messages scraps on orkut, she had always been worried as in questioned about my disturbing facebook and orkut status updates and whenever I was in Delhi I never had to call her up and tell her I was back...she would already know...coz she knew when I had semester breaks and she would constantly ask my sis if I was back or not....writing all these good things about her I am feeling bad ...why did I try to cut her out of my life....but seriously every time I tried to cut her out she crawled back into my life...and I am damn glad she did .... The best part is she always wants to meet me twice...one during the first few days of my vacations and second before I leave. She has always been like a little sister to me and I hope it’s like that always, coz I like taking care of her.
So in the evening we met at the coffee shop ...this time I was early, the first time I guess, every time we had met before, she would always be standing outside the coffee shop and waiting for me (I was so proud of myself) we talked for a very long time and then since it was the weekend before diwali she had to get mehandi work done on her hands...so we hung out at the market for sometime...the market was flooded with people buying sweets and crackers and new clothes and getting mehandi work done on their hands ...lucky for us when we reached the guy who put mehandi was just done with on customer...and so both of us sat down on the pavement and again talked...i had missed talking to her, after putting mehandi I thought she would go...but no she had the whole evening for me... I was so happy and glad and I felt really really bad for wanting to cut her out...though I never told her ...but I know I would have missed something really nice had succeeded in cutting her out of my life. And then as usual my dad called up and said that it was getting late it was just 8 o clock...hmph...so I said goodbye and gave me the tightest hug ever which said a lot of things and that i did mean a lot to her and as usual she said she wanted to meet me before I left...but that dint happen coz I was very busy doing last minute shopping the last few days...but on the day I reached Pune I did get a message from her saying safe journey and have an amazing semester ahead..she never forgets to send me that message... and i hope i can be as good as a friend to her as she is to me...
