MEETING ADJOURNS..

Scene 2

Everyone is at their home, carrying on with their usual stuffs.. Gia’s phone rings. She’s already very annoyed with her group..!

Gia- Ab kaun hai..?

(Looking at her cel..  why the hell is Mayank calling?)

Gia- Hello..

Mayank- Hey.. whats you doing..? 

Gia- Abhi what do u expect..? Nothing.. general timepass.. chit-chatting with my roomie.. have her friend at our place..

Mayank- Oohh.. U mean.. gossip chal rhi hai..! tum ladkiyon k paas koi kaam nhin hai..!!

Gia- Any problem..??? (I don’t know why the hell on earth he has to worry about girl’s gossiping!!) and you shut up right now.. no gossiping in our department.. Just listening the exciting time my roomie’s friend just had in Goa in last 5 days..! and guess what.. how did they had their plan ready?! Everything was decided in half an hour’s time..! One of their group member’s said.. yar pak raha hai.. kahin jate hain.. wanna go to Goa..? the second one says.. ohh yess.. chal dekhte hain.. the rest have started packing.. 2 of them went for booking tickets n all.. and then all the way to Goa..!! awesome naa..! and here.. we ppl.. we ppl will keep planning.. about every damn place near by.. but won’t be able to go anywhere anytime.. everyone has their own tantrums.. ek to hardly we people get time.. and whenever we get, tab nobody will utilize it properly and in the end, will reprimand college for not giving enough leaves..!! everyone is like this only here..!!

Mayank- Hey Gia, calm down.. just chill.. its ok na.. no big deal.. we’ll go some other time.. Maine to haan bola tha na.. to fir, why bursting out over me..!

Gia- Whatever..! (huhh)!

Mayank- What whatever.. anyways.. don’t spoil your mood for the day.. lets discuss what all things do we need to cover for the day.

Gia- Hhmmm..

They talk for another 10 minutes, discussing the entire schedule for the day.. all studies and stuff and disconnect the call after that.

After 15 minutes, Gia’s phone rings again, having Mayank on the line again!

Trrinngg Trrinngg

Gia- Ab kya hua…?

Gia- Han bol..

Mayank- Hey, get ready! I’ll be there down your apartment in next 15 minutes. I’ve convinced Pramod. We are going to that place.. !!

Gia- But how?? What did you say?? What did he say? And how come he’s ready.. (uurrrgg… like every other typical girl, she bombarded hell lot of questions on him!) anyways.. he’s ready.. that’s even better.. Yippeeee..!! ookk.. See ya.. :)

Scene 3

Promod, Priya and Mayank waiting for Gia down her apartment..

Gia- Whooooopppiieeeeee… Yessss.. Cool.. good to see you people again, on bikes obviously :D)!

Mayank- C’mon now, stop acting like drama queen (as always) and take your place..

Gia- Of course! :P

The four of them take all the possible twists and turns for their destination and have fun like crazy! Gia playing all the songs.. one by one.. screaming on road.. full of energy and bliss.. she was on the top of the world.. so damn excited, not about the destination for sure but about the fact that she is going out with her bestest buddies to explore some new place! The journey was full of fun, laughs, adventures, danger complimented with the magnificent beauty India is blessed with which it becomes even more joyous in monsoons… mountains, trees, cloud formations, tunnels, wind, water, roads, etc etc etc., India is full of it!

The visit to dam suddenly changed to a beautiful temple which Gia and Priya, both were unaware of!  When they reached, both the girls were really surprised, but happy as well. Good darshan, good prasaad (had to be good for The voracious empty stomach of all four of them!), and even better or rather the best was the photo session, of the scriptures, carvings, nature, and of course of themselves as well (or else Gia would have surely killed all of them for not clicking her pictures!!).

Finally the time had come to return, to go back to their place, reminding the usual monotonous life! But it’s always good to take out some time from our usual routine and do something different which re-energizes us for our work again. Time spent with friends is always cherished and makes the journey of life worthy. And it is very important to take break after sometime so that life  feels moving on, so that there is no reason to curse it for anything, so that it feels a blessing, a present form God, so that it isn’t feels jaded but rejuvenated every time! It gives a sense of tranquility in heart and mind!

Looking forward for more such days for me and for my readers.. :) ! 

Happy Reading.. :)
