Hi,
Im writing a story hoping it to be short. Inspired from Turning 30 lets see. how i cook up the story...Waiting for your coments...
------------------------
After 24 hours of flight journey, 1 hour of cab journey was making her tiring. she informed her office that she is stuck in traffic jam and will reach office late by another hour. she looked outside, the cab was passing enroute RajPath. She could look at the parliament house ."ohh how i missed to see this place lasttime!" she closed her eyes, as old fond memories rewinded. It has been good 5 years that she had left delhi more so NCR. She was never been part of delhi staying put at Gurgaon or Noida. She would hop into the state of Delhi only during travel or as a tourist. Life in Delhi was not tasted in her two years stay in the NCR which she does regret.
The cab stood in the traffice and the driver was telling her ...
"Madam, yahan se right lengey toh INDIA GATE aayega. Yahan Bahut traffic hota hain." She closed her eyes as AC fanned her, her career started in this very place. It was hot summer then. Joining in an reputed Software company, i had come with two friends of mine each accompanied by our father. My friend Shruti and I had come to India Gate on the second day as part of sight seeing along with our fathers. Walking all the way enquiring the path and finally reached INDIA GATE mid -day. The heat was too high, my dad was unable to bear the heat and we sat for few minutes and then walked away to the famous ANDHRA BHAWAN , we tasted yummy food. I and shruti were left behind by our parents in the hotel room to take care of ourself "
The car stopped, with sudden break she came out of the flash back and looked around she had reached office. With a sigh she got down the cab and entered the office walking in a blazer and skirt she had the ommph factor now with her hair tied high as a pony she looked appealing.
"Apologies for being late, struck in traffic jam, its same no change" she compared her past and present experience. She completed the meeting, things were going to change as the deal was to be signed between the IDL and WAL . WAL is the leading manufacturing company in Batteries and IDL is the software company whose business dealt in supporting the ( hardware and software )infrastrucures of other businesses.Being the client face for IDL,she was enjoying luxury treatment from staff of IDL.
As the things were setup in business end she had to make repeated tours to the IDL office to scrutinise the progress of the work. As the project came up and staff being commisioned , she got to know each and every staff and their roles. As she spoke to the Sr. Delivery Manager Mr. Kapoor she got to know that there is a change in the person holding the Project Manager position. The reason stated for the change was the Previous manager has some personal problems and taken leave. She was okay with it as long as work is not affected and she believed so called principles of IT (information technology ) sector that Work never shall be affected for one person, it will go on with or with out the person its only the face and name of the person will change in corporate world. This was a lesson she learnt from her first boss. Its only your efficiency and brilliancy in handling the work that will enale you to climb the stairs of success and hold on your job.
She asked for Mr.Kapoor to hold the meeting for the introduction of the new Project Manage and also to give a presentation.
it was already late evening as she came back to hotel room.Phone buzzed.
Haan Ma... teek hoo how are u ?
Yes mom i am taking care of myself . Im just feeling tired will have some food and sleep. okay maa... good night.
sipping cup of hot Mochha she opened her laptop dug into the profiles search in the matrimony.
This was a routine now, atleast 1 hour of internet browsing to look at each of the profiles sent by her parents and discard basis of her choice..she stopped browsing and looked back her past. ..
ohh how things changed so quick... once there was ridz, my roomie spending hours on bharat matrimony and i was making fun of her,now i am here.
She still remembers the advice given by her friends "which ever is the firt alliance which seems okay okay for you, accept it, otherwise it will take lot of time and as u run out of age, lot of pressure is piled up like me."
"soch soch kar pareshan hone sey accha uss ladke ko haan kardeti.. beta tuj main bhi toh itne kamii hain...
par maa... main iss chez main compromise nahin karsakte...kamayega nahin toh khayengey kya?" she wanted to settle for a decent earning person whose height was 6 Feet. For some reason, the boys dont stand in this two criteria either their height or salary and if both r there they reject her. She was paranoid on all this and left to USA to work there for few years and save little money.
As sleep came, she fell on the bed taking comfortable position.Around 6 Am she dreamt of him , his face covered in mist smiling on her..his tall frame towering on her...Then again she fell asleep.
Around 8 Am she woke up, ,ignoring the face that she dreamt, checking her mobile for calls there was one missed call from her mother, she ordered coffee and sandwich for her breakfast. She called her mom to talk to her..
"haan maa, kya kar rahe hoo?"
"abhi mandir se ayye hoon beta"
"kaunsa mandir ma..? aaj koi important occasion hain kya?"
"bhagwan ka mandir jane important occasion ki kya zaroorat... aj thursday hai beta, shirdi sai baba ke mandir gaye.."
For some reason she kept quiet, its been long she did fasting for Saibaba and then today she felt like she should do it for once more.
She was ready to go to office dressed in her grey business suit. She looked into the mirror trying to forget him and his memories. Its been long long time and yet his face pops in her dreams.
"Emotions can be controlled,
but cannot be erased…
One can try to be away from their loved ones,
but not from their memories"
