Hi .. How are you?

.....

.....

I've been calling you ... Why aren't you responding?

.......

........

I should have sent about 50 sms. Couldn't you reply to just one?

Are you never gonna talk to me??

Atleast your fine walking next to me!

Am I walking too fast for you? Do you want me to slow down? Why are you staring at me? Spell out a word. It's been 2 days I've heard your voice.

Aaah !! now we are reaching your home. If you don't speak now, I'll come with you and talk to your dad. you're leaving me with no options. Speak now damn it!!

I'm off to Chennai tonight with Raksha to see Rosey. I'll talk to you once I'm back. Is it ok?

Will you promise to take care of yourself and call me twice everyday?

I don't think so..

Atleast an sms will do.

If I find the time, I will.

I shall wait for you to come back, back from Chennai, back to yourself, back to me, back to us ... I'm sure you're mine .. and nothing can change this feeling.

Bye my love, have a safe trip.

Don't just stare, please smile so that i can be relaxed knowing you're fine. Now you go, I'll stand here till you enter the house.

.....

.....

What took you so long to get home? How were you're internals? Are you hungry, Do you want me to serve you lunch or you ate out? Will answer any of my questions or remain dumb? I'm talking to you Priya... What happened? Internals were good? Come on don't worry, you'll have the aggregate. Are you going to say something?

Reply to me... Don't just shut the door.

You're father is to be blamed for giving you so much freedom .. Now you don't think it's necessary to reply to my questions. I'm gonna talk to him tonight for sure. ( in a raised voice)

18:00 knock !! knock !!

Here have some tea and biscuits... Why is your travel bag out? Why does it seem to be packed?

Me and Raksha are missing Rosey a lot, so we are planning a surprise visit to see her.

Who's taking you girls to Chennai? Did you talk to your dad about this?

We have booked the 09:45 pm bus to chennai , Rajahamsa. It'll be comfortable. Don't worry mom we will manage.

Why didn't you tell before? Were you intending to surprise us too leaving home without informing?

come on mom... It's not like what you thinking... you know.

Do as you wish .. now you're old enough to make you're decisions. Why do you need to ask our permission?

I'll make some sandwiches for the journey. Don't forget to pack your tooth brush .. Take sufficient clothes .. Be careful at the beaches there.

I'm not a kid anymore mom... I'll takecare don't worry.

20:00 Raksha arrives in an auto, we sit down enjoy the hot chapathis and curry mom has made.

My mobile beeps .. there's one more sms from rahul ..

Are you ready to leave? Have you packed everything? Can I see you off at the bus stand?

Why do i have to bear with two mom's ?? I switch off my phone.

Have you taken the chargers ... ??

Yes..

How about beach wear?? You have taken them na...

Yes..

Sun tan lotion ???

Yes meri amma .. I've packed it all.

Do you think we need to call Rosey and tell her we will be there tomorrow in the morning?

No .. let's stick to the previous plan. You have her address right.

Yeh...

Be careful .. Do call us once you land at Chennai bus stand. Talk in Tamil as much as possible. Call me if you need any help, i'll call in pandeyan uncle and ask him to help you girls.

Sure dad ...

We wash hands and head to the bus stand in an auto.

21:00 The bus stand is crowded with people, all of them waiting to get into a bus in order to reach a destination.

We look for the bus...

Has the 9:45 Bangalore to Chennai Rajahamsa arrived??

Yes .. it's right there ..

Thank you sir ..

Let's get on.. take the tickets out ..

It's seats 19 and 20 right ..

I guess so...

hmmm... finally here we are ... all on our own for the next two days.. don't throw you're bag ... you can place it up.

Who cares .. ?? Raksha i just want this trip to be one of it's kind and something to remember for a life time.

to be continued ....
