He was looking at her. She smiled back at him. Both their eyes began talking to each other in a cute way. There was quite a bit of crowd in the bus that denied them to stand together and talk. But distance or crowd never mattered to them. All that mattered was, they were somehow still talking through their eyes.

I was seeing them, smiling to me, sitting in a window seat. I was able to see me and Sha in them.  Exactly an year ago it was in this same 335E (Majestic – ITPL), I saw Sha.  Just like these two people, all that mattered to us was, I am her world, and she, is mine.

Today as I see these two ppl, flash of green memories flow in me.

In Bangalore for the first time

It’s been around 15 months since I came to this city of Bangalore. I came here just like every other person. A normal process – Graduate from a good college, Get placed in an MNC during college, pass out successfully from the college and land up in Bangalore to work. Food (awful), climate (awesome), Girls (so mean in their dresses) – these were the major differences, I could sense between Chennai and Bangalore in my first one week of stay. It’s so easy to spot a gal smoking which I have never seen (at least to my knowledge) during my four years of college life.

“Machan intha Bangalore ponungalam velaikey aagathuda”, a common thought for every guy who has come to Bangalore after being in Chennai. Even I had the same feeling, until one day.

This day exactly ten months ago

I had missed my office cab one fine morning, courtesy the pleasant weather. I had not gone in bus till that day in Bangalore. My roomie told a bus number and specifically told me, not to go in AC bus, as its very costly nu.cha ipadi oru akkrayana frienda nu nenaichukitey bus stop vanthen. First bus came was AC. It was already 10:30. Since I was new to office, I usually reach office early around 9:00. Due to that, I got into the AC bus. Finally I reached my office around 12:00. I was not tensed because i was late. I was not worried what my manager will tell me. Because I was so happy reaching late that day, so happy in travelling in that 335E. Because I was all but thinking of the gal i saw in the bus. I dint go for lunch that day. I dint feel like going. I just dint come out of the awesomeness of that gal. She was Wow . The angel every guy would ideally dream off. I saw my princess in 335E. I dint care who else would be seeing her, I dint care if she had a boy friend already, I dint care if she was older or younger to me, I dint care where she is now, but her face was still very fresh in me. To my dismay I dint know where she got down or from where she was. Only ray of hope I had was next day same time same bus!!

Next Day

Purposefully got up late, missed my cab. Same time, same bus. She dint come (only in movies it happens may be, real life la nadakatha ). Two extreme feelings on both the days. Next day I dint want to try out my luck again. Thinking of her I got back to my usual timings. Life is sweet. I did see her again,  after a week in the same bus .I dint want to leave this chance. For the first time in my life I followed a girl.I wanted to know where she goes. To hell with this following up. I found it really difficult to do this.Always worried if she will turn back and shout.But still I followed.Ada kadavuley !!!!!!! … She works in my office, 2nd floor.And me in 6th floor.How come I have never seen her all these 5 months??? Feeling happy I went to my place for the day. Namma area thaney, paathupom.

As Days passed, closeness increased

But then I never thought TT table will make us close.Of all the ppl who were waiting there to play TT, she came and teamed up with me.That was the first of many times we played together. This continued.I slowly got to know about her.

One name I started thinking more often from that day – Shaswatha, it was her name, Sha in short.Going for TT now became a routine for me.Every day at three o clock , one can find me playing TT mostly with her.But wait.Has she become close?. I really dunno.She was definitely becoming a very good friend to me.Getting close doesnt depend on how much time u know a person.It just happens. And thats how it happened between us.

Messages started flowing in my mobile initially from her.It then turned to long night chats on phone.I always wanted to hear a nightingale sing. But then, realised when compared to her voice, even honey should taste bitter. Her smile – u can sense happiness in you when she smiles. Her eyes speak to you when she is silent. aaahhh… Am I being too much in describing her??  WT!! Nothing is too much for her. She is above everything else in this world for me.I am in search of words to tell about her, about the way she makes me feel. I wish I could tell all those. I really wish.

I did have the courage to tell her that I want her to share my life.Because I knew she too feels the same. Of all the places, I told her my love in 335E. It was this bus which showed her to me. She was not shocked or surprised. All that she did was turned around and checked if anyone in the bus heard it. She then smiled back. God!!! I never knew this will happen. It was all fairy tale till now. Love at first sight.Getting close in 3 months. Proposing to her. And she accepting it. Cha ivalavu seekram katha mudinchuruchey.

Now

Wow what an eventful few months we had. These two ppl in the bus made me rewind all those evergreen times I had with Sha. In two stops I will be seeing her. hats where she gets into the bus usually.

After Proposing, our next few months went off so fast. We spent time together whenever we were able to. Talked about ourselves, our future, everything. We are so often carried away by our thoughts about each other. Fights come now and then between us, mainly bec we care for each other so much. If I don’t get her msg for some time, I get angry on her. Possessiveness is something that created fights between us. But all that mattered little.

There was no villian as such in our love. Separation, even for little time makes us realise how much we mean to each other. Reality is painful. Her stop has come. Sha was not there to be seen. Still, I eagerly look out for her. I can sense her presence. I can feel her in me. She is not to be seen though.  It’s been 2 very long days since she left this wonderful city. And I need to wait another 2 longggg years at least to be with her. She has gone off to America, her passion to do MS. We had lots of fight before she applied for it. Lots of discussions whether she should go or not. Finally I had to give up for her. I dunno how I am gonna be here next two years. An MBA for me and an MS for her was all that would be a difference after I meet her in two years time. My love for her will always be there. After all, I never thought higher studies will be the villian in our life. oh dear i miss you so much already . naanum ms padika poirukalamooo . Our love for each other will be permanent, that’s what her name also means.

Time is the best villian in love. It runs off immediately when she was near me. But now it waits to tick even a second, with out her. Our next two years, how it gonna be? God knows it … All izzz well always

So much happiness in me. Though i am a nature lover, this time it was even more wonderful. One thing that i wished most now is she by my side walking hand in hand. What ever, i am seriously enjoying this. I dunno how it all happend. I know her for the last year and half. She is not of my type. And i am not her type too. As i walk now, i just wonder what brought us so close to each other. She is still puzzled, of all people around me, “y her”. Even i think of the same at times. But even i dont have an answer. Certain things are destined to happen or what ever, i am not cared about the reason. If you are lucky to find a person you like, then you are even more lucky if that person too likes you. That happened in our case.

Alomst all our interests are mutually exclusive, though there are few that are in common. After all, there is this basic rule of opposite things attract each other and i firmly believe in it. She likes me to argue with her but i dont. She advices me but when i do the same i am gone. I like to wait for her, she doesnt like me to wait for her for anything. Omg when she gets angry, to bring her back to normal, some herculean effort from my side is needed. But when u start liking a person as they are, then no matter what happens, we will still love that person.

I never expected that i will care for someone so much. When she is not near me, there are lots of memories that i can play in my mind and feel her warmth. Even when she is not with me, i never miss her. We fly high, We laugh, We become sad, We are happy to face any emotion as long as we share it together. This togetherness is just an awesome feel. I just hope that this relation between us lasts forever.

Oouch .. Sometimes i should listen to her. She warns me every time i call or msg her when i walk, “watch the road while walking and dont call me”. Exactly. As i was drowned in her thoughts, and rain , there was this bad damn car speeding around the corner. ooohh… i pulled myself back at the last moment and escaped from being hit. Just then i realised it was not just drizzling, but a heavy downpour. The reality has dumped my dream temporarily . I hurried myself to my home. Ten mins into my home, my mobile beeps – “i was just thinking of u from the time you left after movie ” . Smile is back. Anger on the car that made me down is vanished. My heart starts to beat fast as the feel of hearing her, makes me fly. Between why do you still stay here reading this??? Goodnight

Every single day was jam packed with places to visit. It was hectic, but fun. The first thing that struck me in dubai was the roads and their planning of the city. Chanceless… Almost every road was radar monitored. One can’t go below 60 or above 120 in almost all main roads, If u break the rule, kalas, A gud picture of ur car will be automatically taken and u will be fined 600Dhms (7200 indian rupees). Thou the city is small, but the planning is amazing with lots of crossovers, flyovers, roundabouts, sky scrapers all over, neat pukka roads etc.. Its sort of some machine driven lyf there. Almost all automatically monitored.

Ok let me now take u ppl around dubai (Don’t mind about the tense/grammar i use. All tenses will be mixed ). All set ??? So here We go ……….

Journey to Palm Jumeirah – which is an artificial archipelago and is in the shape of a palm tree. The islands consists of individual villas, hotels all constructed in such a way that it forms a shape of a palm tree when viewed from the top. One can travel through mono rail (one of its kind in the world) to look around the area surrounding the island. Then to the resort Atlantis.This resort is in midst of the palm islands and has two towers linked by a bridge. This happens to be one of the symbols of dubai. It was really a good start for the trip. Sunset at the islands was just superb.

Apart from visiting famous places in and around dubai, whenever time permits we go to different shopping malls. Omg the parking lots for every mall was something great. Every mall had min 10 levels of parking and i dunno how almost every time all the levels were filled with cars (engenthuthan paisa irukumo… ) .. Every mall had a minimum of 600 to 800 cars. shabbaaa…. I coudn’t find any two wheeler in the city.

Next we proceed to Dubai museum. Museum is beautifully structured and shows how this dynamic city was developed in last 50 years. Every one is aware of what will be in museum i suppose. So lets shift to next place.. hmmm. aiyo i forgot where to go next .. (thinking !! )

Yaaaa…. got it. A boat ride around the place to famous gold souk. Dubai is famous for its pure gold, a known fact. It was just a small pleasant ride in the waters between the streets of dubai. Now to this huge shop called “ikea” that took me by surprise. It has everything a house needs. The shop supplies all ready to assemble household products. It gives u lots of ideas on how a home should be constructed and designed in such a way that every single space is utilised. No matter how small your home is, one can decorate it to the core by utilising space properly.

And now to my favourite – Desert safari. One of the best evenings. 3 in the noon to 10 in the night. So what is this safari about. In a single word it is adventorous. Monstrous dune bashing, camel ride, sheesha (google it to get what it means) , ghawa (special arab coffee) , desert camp, sand skiing and belly dancing !! . The dune bashing in the land cruiser was spell bounding. quality time in the desert was totally awesome. For the first time had the oppurtunity to see belly dancing live and very near :p The climate was terribly cold in the desert during later part of the evening. Other wise its scorching sun during the day. Extremes. 100% enjoyment guranteed there.

Next is the night out at the famous global village in dubailand. Roamed in the village from 7 to 1 o clk in the night. It has stalls from various countries around the world, their culture, food, special arts, clothings etc… Every country had charm of its own. Unity in diversity. Ofcourse Indian stall was the best.

So now tired of travelling to many places. wanna take a break ?? Common… we have just few days left. Lets move to our next destination – travel in metro. Metro takes you around the city and gives the best picture of how the city is, the driverless train, pakka platforms (mind u , everything is automatic). One unique thing about the city is, various airport terminals are very nearby to the normal road. There is no such big fencing separating airports and normal roads. Few feet from where we drive, flights will be parked just like another car. Travel in metro is just to get another different feel of how the trains are there.

Time to visit the famous Sharjah cricket stadium, a 20 min drive from our house, once the stadium was the hot spot for cricket matches. Who can forget our God’s (Sachin) desert strom innigs. Wah wah !! take a bow to the little master. He is just like a preserved wine getting better day by day. Infact i did bow on the pitch and felt soooo great.

Hatta rock pools is our next place. Its a 100 km drive and the place is almost near Oman (infact while we go to Hatta, a part of the drive goes via Oman). Passport lam kepanga, namma dabaikalam, onnum pracahanai illa, athan uncle is there na. The place has a nice pool with massive rocks surrounding it. Its a very good place of scenic beauty. Really worth for nature lovers. The breathtaking mountain scenery and the peaceful atmosphere takes us away to a different world. The drive on our way back to dubai is too nice with sand dunes and rocks on either side.

Lets meet the wonderful dolphins, seals in the dubai dolphinarium. The show is a real fun for 45 mins. wow the dolphins do amazing stunts and surprisingly do what ever they are told. Dance, jump, dive, excercise, anything u wnat it to do, it will. A sweet show infact. Onto the famous jumeirah beach. Famous for its sun bath. Burj Al Arab the most famous hotel is part of this beach. The beach is a sure treat for your eyes. :p

Ha ha… enough of staying on the roads. Lets now reach for the skies. Dec 31st evening. To the top of world’s tallest building – Bhurj Khalifa. The amazing lift takes you to 124th floor in a record 64 seconds. Oh ho… The view from the top is awesome. No word to desribe. The sky is at touching heights. From earth to the skies in 64 secs. Every other sky scraper now looks small. Strange !! Scintillating fireworks at the world’s tallest building light the night sky to a huge extent. Thousands thronged around the place to watch this stunning spectacle. I was fortunate to view it and welcomed the new year with lots of hopes and brightness.

To Abu dhabi, the captial city of UAE. This city is famous for its skyscrapers and every building is very close to each other. Emirates palace is in here. To our surprise, the whole city is oddly five streets. After visiting a beach we pack off yet another eventfull day.

shabba… still there are lots of places to go – Fujairah, al ain … But unfortunately we dont have enough time. Hope enough gifts, chocks are purchased. Also we shopped hell lot in the various malls that we went around.

Overall this was a much needed outing after a long time. Thou it was just ten days, i enjoyed to the core. Thanks to my uncle and family for making this possible.

But what ever, sorgame endralum athu namma ooru pola varuma ????

PS: I will share my pictures sooner.

( a small flashback !#$%^& We both got introduced to each other in a very unusal way. I got a weird message from that number around four months back. Thats when, i got her first message. It was sent to me wrongly. Since that message was filled with disappointment, something in me told to reply back. Our friednship started exactly there. Can’t explain exactly how everything happend, but we decided not to talk or see each other but just share things when ever we feel like via our messages. Strange isn’t it… atleast for me it was ).

With little bit of excitement i picked the call. She wished me. i was dumbstruck. Her voice seemed to be pretty young. I dint have any expectations about her. She asked me if i could meet her. (adada intha chance a vida koodathu.). Big YES. But then, there was some twist to it too. Told me that, she will be in that famous amusement park in the garden city from 10 to 6, and if i am smart enough i can find her and thus ended her call. rightu… ellathayum suthi valaikarathu than ava vela pola !! .. hmmmm… Was someone playing pranks on me or what. Okie let it be. Athayum pathrulam. Finally i decided to find her. Sick leave to office on my bday, rombha soooper, theriyatha oru ponnukaga poi vera solliyachu..

Drove to the amusement park. It was 9 30. The board read vistors allowed from 11 in the morning and last entry at 4 in the evening. and the park closes at 7. I waited. More than the excitment of meeting her, i was more worried of how to find her, thats bec i was not sure if she told me her proper name also, all i know is her mobile number. Seriously i felt very filmy at that point of time, as i have never seen anything of this kind happend to me before or even to my friends. So any idea of finding her? Started rewinding many movies in my mind, hoping to find some way. Fine. i thought of one thou, little silly may be….

I went straight to the security guard area which is the only point of entry into the park. There was one young beautiful lady and a gentlemen over there. Without any hesitation i told my story to them and obliged that only they could help me. Requested them to ask every visitor to put an entry of their address, name and mobile number in a register kind of thing as part of security measure in the park. After long pleading they accepted to it. I just wanted them to do this help for an hour. It was 12 now, but still the register dint have the much expected mobile number. I thanked them and went inside the park. ennatha naan search panrathu. Infact i started losing hope on her. I called her. She told me that she in the park as she had informed me. No change in her plans. Ppl were flowing in by now, seems so many doesnt have work even on a weekday. More crowd, more anger as it is more difficult for me to find. Comme onnn dont lose hope, still an hour for her deadline to be over. To be frank i still dint know y i am so keen to see her, and wasting my entire day for a person whom i have never seen.

A new message from her saying just think and she knows i will meet her for sure. Aaahh !! started recollecting what and all she told me that entire day. Her wish, meeting, amusement park, 10 to 6 in the park dot dot. It was five thirty and after a long gap smile in me was back. For the first time felt i had found her. I ran my way thru the crowd to the park office. I briefed the manager and asked if there was any staff with that mobile number. May be his memory was too good or he was very close , a glance at the number and he told it belonged to person named X and the place where i can find her now. I guessed right, not bad. Next minute i was before her, at the security desk, the same young beautiful lady to whom i briefed my story in the morning and asking her help to find her only. She welcomed me with her cute smile and i returned back smartly too

lemme start off with my old team (considering i was in two different teams), ofcourse i am still very much part of tat team as i usually have lunch with them. Vivek, yash, biswa, yogamaya, logs, deepak & barathy. wow nice bunch of guys thy are !! I am d youngest of all, infact lot younger :p But still we jelled together very well. Tats y, even when i was moved to a different team, still go for lunch with these ppl. Never wanna lose in touch with them.

Ps: Kindly excuse me for using names without prior permission :p. Just wanted it to be in my blog atleast once.

y this trip -

It was our friend’s engagement at a place called “Polur” which is some one and half hours from Vellore, a total of 6 hours travel from Bangalore.

Phase 1 – Planning :

As usual we needed to plan for the trip. Engagement on sunday, till friday evening, none of us were sure of attending it. Also sanjay(Ofcourse its me ) wanted to go to the “Golden temple” at vellore, only on that condition he will attend the function. Condition was met easily as the other two readily agreed. Wid out a group chat, planning is never complete !! We did put a 3 member chat to decide how we go, when to start etc. It was planned like this, book for sunday morning 7:30 bus and meet at office entrance at 6:15. “Sunday morning at 6 lam too much da” tats wat everyone of us felt. But since we heard that temple will be too crowded, it will take a minimum of 3 hours there (Wrong info given by one of the members of the chat – “she”), so finally we buked bus at 7:30 to vellore.
Remember this was our final plan – Meet at office 6:15, Bus to vellore at 7:30, Reach by 12, have lunch, visit temple, start from vellore at 5 to polur, attend function, Reach vellore before 11:15 at night as we booked bus to bangalore at 11:30, reach bangalore on monday early morning 4:30, sleep, Office at 11. Nice planning na. Let me now tell how we executed it ..

Phase 2 – Ideal Start :

I had additional job of waking up one of the persons at 5:30. Gud that “he” replied back to my first msg itself saving me one call :p . We both came sharp at 6:20 near our office. Engapa moonavathu member?? Third member is a “she” . I told him that it was she who said the time the previous night and that she will make it for sure. so we waited. It was 6:35. Both messaged to her. No replies. Again waited. Now we called. Call dint go at all. aahaaaa aaapaaa !!.. sunday kaalela aaru maniku office munnadi rendu perum enna panrathunu theriyama polambikitu irunthom. It was 7:15 already. And there was no chance of catching the bus we booked. vada poche !!! But still we wanted to go out somewhere atleast as our sleep was disturbed already. We dint give up, somehow we called one more friend and asked “she” to get back to us soon. (Mobile beep) (One new message).. hey call me. i slept off. sorry …. i stared at him, he stared me, both stared at the message – plan panni kavuthutalo?? but no.. We never wanted to drop our plan. She agreed to be in bus stop by 8 and promptly she came :p (athan book panna bus poche… ) We thought of some alternative way of reaching vellore, madivala-hosur-vellore. And finally we reached by 1:00. Definitely not late.

Phase 3 – Vellore Golden Temple :

we had our lunch and got one more bus to the temple. it was 42 degrees. There was not much crowd and we entered the temple with assistance from one stranger who helped us to get in the Q. After seeing the place i felt it was more of a park rather than a temple. The atmosphere and ambience was gud with lawns,trees everywhere, but there was no feeling of a temple. It was just a big size park and in middle of it was a golden shrine and goddess inside (engenthu ivalavu panam?? hmmm .. ) . Mobile and camera was not allowed. So not even one pic we could take. so simply we roamed. It was four and time to move on.

Phase 4 – The engagament :

From vellore it was 1.5 hr travel. Full standing and bus was overflowing. Intha koduma porathunu, a movie with full sound was going inside the bus. Finally we reached the place of the function. It was like we were totally drained out and no energy in us at all after the full day travel under the scorching sun. Function went well , had our dinner and we need to get back to Vellore by 11:15. It was 9:00. Return travel from that village to vellore also same kodumai, heavy rush, standing. But this time one more extra – Vetaikaran clips was going on. Mudila… atalst we boarded the final bus to bangalore which we booked at 11:30. Got home by 5 and thus ended our trip. But the trip was awesome. Everyone of us enjoyed thou it was tiresome.

“Well Begun is half the job done” – nothing like that. Bad begnining also makes it fun. We did have fun.

Other 2 who joined me -

A Chekhov & U Gayathri

PS: I got high fever and dint go to office on thursday. After effects of that trip felt after 3 days !!

Train stopped. Half an hour into my journey. Hard luck. No one came. I was just looking at the dark world outside thru the windows. Fifty mins into my journey now and for the second time the train stopped. I dint expect anyone. Was just thinking of the IPL match that i watched few hours back in my home. As train started i just turned to take my bag, to my surprise, shock rather there was this eigth member in our compartment. dint believe my eyes as the new one was a “she”, “she of my age” and more “she was beautiful”. Wow !! god brings u wid sweet surprises when u probably dont expect much.

She was in light blue tops, white skirt, cat eyes, curly hair wid some kind of band around her left wrist. she was sitting opposite to me – side lower berth as others were already sleeping. Half an hour passed. she saw me 3 times and i 2 times (meaning to say i saw her 5 times ). none talked. It was already ten. Hmmm.. ( !! Sanjay common u need to start the conversation if not its better u sleep rather ogling). I was about to start talking when she spoke. Silence was broken by her sweet voice. She said, Hi dis is Lekha !! and how abt u??….. hmmm… she started talking first… Fine tats not an issue now, right??? Yup it was not at all…

It all started wid this formal intro. We were into talking for next one hour, talking all sense/non-sense stuff movies, job, shopping, gals…. She was non stop chatter box. cha sorry.. The way she spoke was very nice, taking into account v have never met each other before. Her words were all over the place – she spoke abt her friends, school, outings etc…

When everything was going fine her eyes were sudddenly filled wid tears. I dint know what to say. She started crying when she talked about her first love.Suddenly she began to talk little wierdly. I am not able to remember everything she said, but i could remember these – life is love. love is life. Its this thread that differenciates a man and a beast. Caring wid out expectation is a sign of true friendship. y there is ego or selfishness in everyone i meet?? Or am i looking at only bad things in ppl around me?? Y is it i blame for the things i have wen thr are many who doesnt even have anything?? y there is always pressure in living when we know that our lifetime is short? en da?? cha i wanna fly like a bird, move like a breeze, be sweet as a rain drop, live amongst valleys and mountains covered wid snow, cry aloud at times, laugh aloud when i feel. What ever be the situation we r in , lets keep smiling na. She said hell lot of things. Finally she said “I dunno y i said all these to you, but felt like sharing to u. Hope i dint bore you. You are sweet. Lets sleep. its already two. gunite and sweet dreams sanjay”.

Dint know how the next 4 hours went. (Bangalore city. Time 6 15 am). Opened my eyes from my sleep and the first thing i did was to see her. But Alas !! i coudnt find her. Looked all around. My compartment had 2 middle aged women and 3 other men. Checked my ticket, it read – Coach S4, berth 68. I was confused. Was it all a dream?? blue tops? white skirt?? oh bad !! The things she said then?? Ellam karpanaiya…. adada. Finding it hard to accept, i just got down from my train and started to my home. The things she said was still fresh in me. “What ever be the situation we r in , lets keep smiling na… ” True..

Who are those we?? Senthil(organiser), Logesh(financier), Eshwar, Shankar, Abhinav, Abhishek, Vadiraj, Chekov, Vivek, Rupan, Yashwant, Biswajeet(our alarm ), Neha, Bharathy, Seema (Suggested the place), Monisha (our cooker ) and me.
