Date: 22nd Jan 2008.. SundayPlace: Chung-Hua
Time: 1 in the afternoon!
Who: (From left- Ritika, Khushboo, Harsha, Myself, Parinitha & Upneet)
For: Lunch..
Why?: because I was leavin for Australia and i wudnt see them in about 2yrs!.. (or maybe more, who knows!)
it was but natural and i caught up with these ladies in my life!..and guess what, these working women finally spared time for me, and made it possible!..
i was there.. on time!.. called each on of them.. and you know these girls..sayin.. "yea, im on the way yaaa, will b there soon"... sheeesh! like they jus kept me waiting!!!.. ggirls, i tell you!.. heheehe...
khushboo arrived in this bright pink thing.. she made me smile..! (i'd miss her for sure).. upneet came next, on her worth more than a million kinetic nova.. (i'd miss her too, i've known her for half of her life!..)... harsha came in.. after sometime.. we hugged and all (yeah, met her after ages.. the first time, actually, after we'd graduated..).. we sat and talked and talked.. madam parinitha finally landed up ... actually hey guy delayed the poor girl..! (bad boy!).. hmm... and madamoiselle ritika was somewhr lost!.. like she dint find the place!!.. upneet and me went down so that she could spot us near the restaurant.. well, well, she finally zoomed in on her priceless bike (sure is an artifact!.. lol.. however you spell that!).... now that we were all in the restaurant.. guess what struck all of us?.. three of us in pink and three in brown!.. i mean, talk of co-incidence!!!.. phew!.. girls girls girls!!.. (honestly, i dunno wot i'd have done without them!.. {sigh!!}).. we ordered a whole heap of food..!..talked and hogged, hogged and talked..!.. what else could you expect when 6 irls were in one place!!!.. at one table!.. .. we wanted to try upi's favourite fried ice-cream.. but for some reason it wasnt available!.. so we settled for some plain strawberry and chocolate icecream!.. the guy who took the order was throughly confused, cuz we all spoke at the same time!.. hmm.. the master photographer- upneet took heaps of pics inside the hotel.. and all of us took more than heaps outside the hotel, like just outside the door!!!.. others couldnt open the door, lol... cuz we stood right there.. cuz we loooooooooooved the bright red and gold background..of the door!.. i knew we had to depart.. time was ticking!.. everyone had to get home.. pari's guy wouldnt have spared her otherwise.. khushboo's parents would get mad, so would harsha's.. upi ritika and me had no worries,... cuz we'd been galavanting all thru college life!.. we all went down, obviously, after poolin in for the bill.. everyone hugged me.. (Thank God i dint cry..!.. like i was jus acting brave, yu know!!).. we said bye to each others.. and for some reason, khushboo and me hugged and din say a word!.. did we know departing would be so difficult?.. khushboo looked into my eyes and said.. "Rebecca, can we meet one last time next weekend?".. i dint think twice.. and i said.. "sure thing"..! i could give up anythin to see her.. !..after all.. she copied notes from me in fine day!!.. hehehee.. (.. i miss her..!!!).. upi and me got onto her bike!.. yeah.. it sure was a bike !!.. *Grriiiinnnnnnnn*... and ritika and pari on ritika's bike... and we raced, lol.. screamin at each other..! and what not, like the world would've thought we were insane!!!.. (doubts?!.. LOL).. reached home.. and stood at our favourite spot- right outside a vet's shop!.. lol.. and chat chat chat and chat!.. like it was endless...!!!!..finally had to say goodbye!.. my heart was sinkin.. i was leavin in 2 weeks.. my throat felt choked.. but i cudnt do much!.. said bye bye to ritz and upi.. and headed home..!.. miss them so bad.... well, well, im reminded of this thought...which says.. "meeting and parting is the way of life, but parting and meeting is the hope of life... "...
i'm sure we're all living with that hope, that we'd meet.. definitely meet... and be friends for days to come!!.. (i mean, forever!!)
...(and i did meet khushboo the next weekend.. and what made it better.. we bumped in harsha too!) *wink*
