From SD to Bangalore....
The moment plane touched the clouds i felt as iam leaving my life here.. I dont know why i was feeling so hopeless even when it was my own decison and when i always have an open option to come back even tomorrow.. It was a long flight.. 20 hrs in one stretch.. ooo so tiring especially when you are already exhausted.. but for me it was not so long coz i was busy in viewing flash back of 4yrs i spent there.. and next to me very cute 4yr old gal was sitting.. who was trying too hard to make me smile now and then.. she was watching my misty eyes very carefully and finally she asked ..why are u crying? are u missing your dad? iam missing my dad too.. and her big beautiful eyes started dropping tears.. i smiled.. and said ok now we both will not cry.. lets eat chocolate..(thanks to P for keeping those chocs in my hand bag)... after that she was just talking ..talking.. her mom was sleeping and she was busy in telling me about all exciting things in her life.. God gals really talks a lottt ..hehehe.. but i enjoyed her company.. so innocent and so loving.. at Kuala Lumpur i said goodbye to her and gave her one more choc and in return she kissed me and gave a big hugg.. ooo i was happy.. thanks little stranger Ria for making me smile along the way..
I had a 10 hours stay at KL.. was so excited to see the twin towers.. but imigration and all formalities took so much time and i reached hotel around 3.30 ..i was too tired coz of less sleep and stress.. still i arranged a tour for myself.. after freshing up we started around 4.30.. twin towers were at 1hr drive from that place..
I was thinking.. and thinking... and suddenly someone called me.. hello mam... i opened my eyes and asked.. so we reached city.. and he smiled .. no mam, we reached airport.. whattt???? I was surprised as the other people were having a big grin on their face..
aah!!! that guy told me that i was asleep for whole 4 1/2 hrs.. :( they tried to wake me up... but i refused.. hard to believe ..i mean i never slept like this ever before.. that even in a public transport and in a new unknown place.. but it happened.. i was so disappointed.. and lost the chance to visit this beautiful city..
Anyways, i grabed a burger and headed towards security to board my next flight to Bangalore.. and for next 3 1/2 hrs i was busy in thinking about my stupidness.. it was really very hard to believe.. i mean.. but then anything is possible in my life at this time.. finally i reached B'lore.. watch was ticking 1.00am when i came out ..then i started looking out for my company's driver.. and finally i saw my name and took a deep breath.. but one more surprise was waiting.. i saw my friend n his wife smiling in front of me.. and i was like woo hooo!!!
We reached my service appartment and after enjoying the yummy.. super duper home made food.. his wife asked.. so dear how was KL.. eeeee i was meeting her for the first time and i was like gosh! what she will think about me.. hehehe.. but slowly i told them and they were laughing and laughing.. and said tch.. tch.. tumse ye umeed na thi.. itni ghummakad ladki kaise so gayi.. kaha to raat mei bhi nahi soti.. i was like haan ab kya karoo.. so gayi to.. huh!
yes i love travelling.. and iam very much fond of visiting new places.. thats the reason i usually book my tickets with different airlines each time.. and mostly try to choose longest routes.. thats why they calls me ghummakad.. *smiles*
Anyways they left and after checking my mails i went to sleep too.. i woke up with a phone ring.. hello!! ..good morning mam.. what you'll like for breakfast? ..ufff nothing call after an hour.. i wasnt used to of this kinda service so felt little uncomfortable.. but ok.. i went back to sleep.. then again after sometime door bell rang.. i looked at the watch it was 9 o'clock.. opened the door.. mam ready for office? ... office jeez i came at 2 in night n who asked you to pick me at 9? no one mam i just came to pick someone so thought.. donno why people think too much.. anyways, i told him to come after an hour.. and started getting ready.. after eating that yum yum idli sambhar..(yes i love south indian food.. but dont ask me now) i was ready for a new start..and the driver came at 10.15 .. i asked how far is work place from here? .. only 5km mam.. good.. weather was good ..almost like SD.. but traffic... uff uffff it took 50 mins to cover those 5kms :( ... I was here 5 yrs back.. but now its a totally new city.. was looking for something familiar but no.. everything changed..
Ahh!! welcome to Bangalore.. i said to myself.. *smiles*
