Turn Back Time

I have had so many friends visiting me in the last couple of weeks that now my Mom is confused with their names ;)

A dear friend visited me last Saturday. I knew I was going to be in my best behavior and had this one chance to create a first positive impression. I dressed up accordingly and was waiting for her to come (not to mention I was meeting her for the first time!).

She came along, like a gush of wind! Gave bunch of flowers to my mom and a polythene packet in my hand. I asked what was inside that and she said it’s some sweet. I escorted her to my room. Gave her a chair and made her comfortable.

A couple of minutes later I felt like I have known her all my life. Who could say it was the first time we met in person. Many would find it strange but I don’t. We spoke for hours together. Yes, not to forget the awesome “paneer pakoda” and a hot cup of coffee just made the evening a real good one.

We spoke about everything we could possibly think about, just in case anybody was observing us might have only thought, “Do they even understand that there is comma, full stop etc…”But no, there was just no stopping. We continued to talk for a long time till she realized she had to make a move.

I waved her good bye and only hoped to meet her again. But I have a confession to make.The moment she left my place I thought….. “If only, I could turn back time”.
