The Journey part -II

The journey part 2

Once in the flight I started to get a funny feeling ..Bangalore he he leaving finally hehe .. Had got troubled with Bangalore so much in the last few days.. Just because I knew I had to leave but the thing was getting postponed on and on…. Which frustrated.. In the flight thought of catching up with sleep hadn’t slept for 3 nights in a row… but.. neeend kahan aani thi.. Bhuuk jo lag rahi thi ! ) Jet airways were quick in serving the food … I was quick in winding up my dinner … I was so hungry that felt like eating whole Jet Airways but finally decided to get back home and have some good food … for the last several days after shikha left was surviving on bread and junk food  ..
Delhi was looking really beautiful from above… but something was different this time may be because I knew I wont be back before an yr. hence wanted to make most of it. There was an announcement “outside temperature is 37 deg C. And humid “Damn... but some how it didn’t matter much because I knew in US it’s gonna be damn cold) …
Upon landing I wasn’t feeling much, you know a person cant feel nothing at 2:30 am, when he’s been awake for 3 days  .. But still all the imagination started running in while picking up the luggage from the roller which normally comes when you come home after a real long time. Once outside I spotted Chanks eagerly waiting for me, I could feel the excitement in her eyes) Then I saw everyone dad dad mom mom chacha cheena Ankur. Oh Ankurs eye were swollen , which showed he is in IT industry and is doing late nights. OH……. There was his brand new Swift felt as if it was eagerly waiting for me so that I can get hands on it) but I preferred to move on. Back in car the we talked and as usual got confused in the ways )then preferred chacha move in front. Finally after an hr or so reached my next immediate destination HOME. Oh it had been so many months ….. Felt very relaxing. Spend time chatting with family members and slept only when we realized its morning  ..
It was already Thursday morning and I only had Thursday and Friday in Delhi and had to catch flight 7 in morning which implied leaving home 2:30 in the night..(One more night gone) ) Anyways I didn’t care about sleeping which I generally used to (you know I am big time sleepy head.) .. Well called up friends and requested them to come over my house to meet as it going to be a yr before I would be meeting them again. For some of them I hadn’t met for 2 yrs now… Thrusday morning I woke up at 7…8:00 am tauji came spent some time with him and chatted with chacha chachi dadi .. and all.. then around 2 went to meet my inlaws and then to Manu / Guddu Bhai . It was only after marriage that I was going to meet them. Also there was there was some thing else in store for me! Their brand new Merc and CRV , I was the only one to get hands on it. We chatted for time. They were always like they had been the self contented Yo man. ) . Then after that we decided to test drive merc , but unluckily it had a flat tyre…. Never mind I said CRV is there!  We took it around, and to my surprise I was so conscious to drive that I handed over to them only and that WE is Manu Bhai only  . Finally, it was time to return but you know talking never ends  lastly I tried my hand at their Handwriting lol… and said good bye….
On way back I felt like Delhi becoming like Bangalore … Traffic Jam …and it was a huge one….. reminded of hosur road. And it was all the way till Surya nagar. Ohhh man…. That was a real bad one….. All this time I was having real good food katauri, paneer tikka and it seemed like I had become a food trunk .. Just keeping myself aware not to miss it in US: moral get satisfied. hrs passed by like moments…Just wanted to make most of every moment. That night Also I don’t remember what time I slept… Next day was a great day ahead: Rakshabandhan.
I also woke up early! and got ready as everybody would arrive by j8 in morning . Spent that day at home and met all relatives and friends , It was really good and always felt short of time. Just couldn’t help. Just thanked God that I am able to meet. Especially Mama mami had arrived from Mauritius and you never know when you are going to meet them next. (I am not just not emphasizing on feelings… you know …) Just to mention I was able to refresh memories and had good time with Vipin, Davinder, Ankush, Ruchir (you should thank me I didn’t mention the other name) Shweta, yogesh. And not to mention infy_aug did not break their custom.
The whole day passed by And I still had to do my final packing. Had my dinner and poured all my worries on to shikha : questioning her, bugging her that I don’t miss anything in my luggage and even the papers because I never had the time to attend the session on first time to onsite and you never know what comes up .! Americans can go crazy on anything.
Everything packed and done by 10 pm , then again a revision…lol .. not missing anything .. and had 4 more hrs before we left the house. .. Time passed by like anything and it was 2, time us to leave. Chanks was in hostel and ppl were divided into two groups ) … to finally meet at the airport.
AT the airport, now it seemed that all said and done and it was time to leave .. But still I was not getting the feeling which I
was “supposed” to get .. lol ).
Departure time came near and I could see eyes getting num. Next I quickly hurried for boarding pass only to realize that it had a huge line. Shikha’s mama is an engineer in AIR and was there to escort me. He tried his luck to chuck the line (you know India ) but unluckily there was a problem in the system and nothing was working and they had to do everything manually :O. I thought planes and I run late , at least for each other  Every time I have caught a flight alone its for sure that its delayed. For 1 hr we were there in the scrap line. And other passengers where made to stand for some 3 hr. OH my …
All the time I was worried about my next connecting flight, both the flights were of Cathy airways and they tried to assure me that I wont miss it but how I coulnt get . The flight flew 2 ½ hr late. And finally the flight took off and I said goodbye to Delhi = India.
