Hot Yummy Pizza
We , for a change got into the Pizza Hut near by our office premises than our usual Saravana Bhavan in our Campus. We ordered for Pizzas and were waiting for delivey on a table .
We were four in our team and Mr.Edward made it five today :)
Ed was over call outside the Pizza Hut and was looking at us through the glass door.Hot Pizzas were placed in our table in next few minutes and we decided to start with it as Ed joined us. The moment we were about to start, Ed got a call again and asked us to continue .
I , as always , unlike those earlier official days (When I joined as Trainee), took a piece of pizza in my hand and started having it. Ms.Pooja , the only gal in our team took the fork and knife placed on the table .She started struggling with it to get a very tiny piece of pizza clinged to her fork ;)
Once in my Maths class there was an intersting question shooted to test our concentration . It was regarding partitioning of Pizzas equally and people shouted we can cut it radially (Mathemarics Brain U see ;)) But this question was not to test our Maths but to test our thought proces in all anlges :)
Yes!
Can we share Pizza equally by cutting it Radially??? One might get the base bread and one would get the yummy toppings... So , its not logical to do it that way ....
In case of Pizzas... Why fork??
Jus got this story in between to explain that Pizza taken as bits will not give you the exact taste of it..It should be taken along with the tomato sauce,cheese added and all the exra toppings :)Hmmmmmm
Yummy!!!!
Coming to our story, Pooja was mainting a smile as she was having it and she made sure her facial expression was not awkward when she was struggling to cut the pizza ;)
Also she took care not to make noise while was cutting it
(knife and plate).
Ed was lookin at Pooja as she was having and came fast to her as he disconnected his call.
He came near her and told "You people are so funny.. you have rice with your hand but using fork for Pizza????"
Our team was looking at him and he gave a smile back and took his seat . There were two things that were going on in my mind .
1. Thank God I was not using fork and knife for pizza :)
2. They are great who see their comfort rather than the silly show offs ;)
Ed was correct when he pointed it out..we were so silly .. so funny ....
There are many silly things that we do just for the sake of show offs rather than our comfort .
I bow to those who go the other way ...
Taking a break now... Wanna have a Pizzaaaaaaaaa..... Yummy!!!!!

The Special Call
After nearly a year.... the call from one corner of the world hit my cell phone...
"Hello"
"Who is this?” I enquired
I was expecting a call but that was from the other corner ;-)
"Hey don't you know me?” the voice was so close to my heart.
Who else can so strongly and closely call me with assurance that I will not ask who again.... ;-)?
Yes!!! At last I got the call from the soul I consider my sister, my fren, my well wisher and above all a practical advisor ;-) Time has passed by and things around us have changed but our hearts remain the same though separated by distance... more than an hour of talk - I mean sharing and then to my surprise there were two more fellows who joined the call from two other locations.
It was not just a call that connected four people around the world but it was complete hours of sharing from heart!
Farewell is not always happy ones but moving forward always makes us happy
Yes! A step forward in our journey of life gives us happiness but
Ironically, we have to bid farewell as we keep moving :-)
I have been bidding farewell to my close ones in the past one year and now had reached a point wherein I had none around close to my heart - who would understand the exact
Rhythm of My Heart.
By this time, I had controlled bringing people close to my heart cos I could not bear the pain of missing close ones :-(
Today, when I was entering a new phase in my life, when I had lots to share, when I wanted my dears to know things happening in my life and when I wanted to know their life stories -I got
THE call : The Special Call
Never realized I was in India and it was un time in India until my sister came down to the road I was walking and talking over call to shout at me! I had to get back home to have my dinner alone but was so happy to have dinner with these three idiots of mine :-) I cannot explain the exact feel that held all four of us so long over call ...
We were not siblings, we were not class mates and neither were we neighbors..... We were once "Just Project Mates" and then we became "Just Frens" and later , in course of time , dunno when exactly but each one of us became an inevitable part of each other’s life! May be we didn’t often find time for each of us amidst our other commitments but even after ages when we talk, the feel remains the same :-)
We were then , not “Just Frens” as I mentioned earlier but
We were holding a relationship that was bonded by
TRUE LOVE !
Nothing more in words would make it better!
As I keep explaining, the essence is getting lost but
As I keep thinking about US , I keep explaining....
Like in SPRING our relationship sprouted and one by one we became closer and flourished but as the AUTUMN approached,
the leaves were shedding one by one....
Now again, the spring has touched our hearts :-)
I know Autumn will come again but there is Spring coming again!
Who cares about the dry summer and the ice cold idle winter in between,
when all we want is the fresh Spring touching our lives again to rejuvenate us in all sense !
It was complete mixture of all emotions...Thanks to technology that held Denver,London,France and India on a single line for more than the duration I spent in my exam hall ;-) The world is a sphere and we will meet again together in person with the same love in our hearts :-) Love you dears a lot :-)
How long will the bubble last???
NO Idea ! But till it vanishes, it remains colourful and fresh .

New Born Love - Chapter Six
Not even a week left for him to say bye.We had to plan something,sometime together and some sharing was essential in this period .
I had not applied for leave today and my presence at office was must... Amidst this , I had to find time to meet him..
How? Where? When?
I was wondering ! Then, I decided to board the 4.P.M bus like during our previous secret meeting. I got into bus and informed him. He ensured he will not be late today :P Unfortunately, even today I had to wait but this time I take the blame. My poor knowledge about location made him reach late :-) I was waiting at the point he had parked the car last time .I had wait for five minutes this time for him to come.
It was so hot outside and I wrapped my head with my dupatta to cover my head from direct sun .
He was over call and told me he reached :)
I was searching for the same red Swift but for change this time he had come in the Black;-) .
He had already reached and spotted me first :-) I entered and felt so relaxed after the wait in hot sun. He took me to the same Mithai shop and this time I ordered Paav Bhajji (The sentimental dish me and two of my close ones share and eat together in one plate) . He ordered for a tea . He had missed his mom's special tea as I was waiting ;-)
For the first time shared Paav Bhajji with a person other than those two ;-) and for the first time we experienced literal sharing ;-)
Our next destination was the same old park where we first spent some silent hours :-) But this time we did little talking :-) Nice time which I cant explain and elaborate :-) There were lots of unmarried couples sitting in stone benches and I hesitated to take such a posture in that park.We were engaged officially still a little fear ;-) (What will this so called civilised society think)The feel was awesome :-)
We sat in a stone bench.... Talked a little extra than our previous meets. Time was running so fast and now it was time for me leave so that I can reach home like I reach when I take my office transport service :P
As we started walking,he offered his hand to hold and I was surprised when he did it without any hesitation in the crowd unlike his usual nature ;-)
I was thinking how romantic he is... "Holding hands and walking at night in a park under dimly lit street lights and trees on either sides of the foot path" But his reply to my smile made me realise it was his humour ;-) He told me that, just to avoid me marching with my hands swing in full action in the park, he offered the hold ! Ha ha ha
This little piece of comedy in our meet still remains fresh and I love the moment which made me feel his humour and romance :-)
It was then I realised that he had good sense of humour and was little romantic at the same time ;-)
We started off from the park and unfortunately we reached my area early than my usual office time. Anyway we got some more extra time together though inside car ;-) Yeah!! We were in car till the clock stroked the exact time. I'm not sure if someone would have noticed the Black i20 roaming in the same route twice at this night time...
The time had come for us to say bye for the day .
A feel of excitement about the next day's plan overtook today's feel of leaving :-)
The day was complete for us with our final handshake and wave :-)
