Sumeera is back

It was night and after dinner I came to check my mails. As I logged in Yahoo messenger summeras PM window popped up.I was happy to see her online.She had come back to India from Singapore just a week back. It was after a very long time I saw her online.After few minutes of chat I called her.I was very happy to hear her voice after such a long time. Last time I talked her when she was in Singapore. It was around 5 to 6 months back.

Sumeera;was my crush(she is even today)from the days when I was in MVLU college.We were very good friends.After bunking the classes we used to hang around the college together. Those were really good days. Even though we were friends, I used to consider her as my competitor. She was a bit more intelligent than me.Sometimes we used to bunk classes and go to her home(which was near to college).I still remember the day when I had been to kalrashukla Classes in Vile Parle.We had given our class test in Sathe college.After the test I spotted Sumeera in the crowd of Students. We went togeher to Parle station walking. It was monsoon season and started raining. Both of us were not having umbrella.Instead of running around and standing in the shade of roofs, we went walking in Rain. She told that she will catch rickshaw somewhere between Parle and Andheri. We walked laughing,Chatting enjoying in the rain.She was a very good friend and a genuine person.One day I told her that I had crush on her and she started to laugh uncontrollably. I think she knew that right from the beginning.After Junior college I joined Mechanical Engineering and she joined Instrumentation Engineering in Parshvanath college. Thereafter we got busy with our studies and our meetings reduced. Slowly we stopped calling each other. Unlike me,she fully concentrated on her studies. In a month or two I used to call her.After studies I joined Sharekhan.com and I got too busy with work.Hopefully I got job even before getting my degree.After few months of completion of my Engineering studies our results were declared. In every semester Sumeera used to have good percentages(most of the time first class) then me and I had started becoming jealous of her. I thought that in final year I will score more percentage then her and settle all old records.I got first class in final year.Happily I called Sumeera thinking that I have left her back this time. When I called her; she informed that she got Distinction.And I lost even the final battle to this great lady.I was busy calling shots in Share market and Sumeera was planning to go to states for MS. When I was Chennai I got call from Sumeera that she is getting married and has dropped the idea of further studies in America. She invited me to her marriage.Even at this time she never left her usual humourous flirting."Abhishek, if the groom doesnt turn up on time, you have to take his place. So make it sure that you are present on my marriage."But due to time constraints I wasnt able to attend her marriage.

Coming back to the call. Her voice and ways hadnt changed. I talked to her for an hour. She was not feeling well since the time she had arrived from Singapore. Majority of the time while our conversation we were laughing and joking. i thought that after marriage Sumeera will change and must have become serious and lo....Sumeera had become more lively and showered teasing comments on me just like the days when we were in Junior College.I asked her whether her husband was around.She told that he was in Hyderabad and therefore was able to talk very freely.We talked about her stay in Singapore and my stay in Delhi.We went on and on. She told me to meet her in next week and I replied affirmatively.She warned me not to come without her pending Marriage gifts.

I really wished if those good days return back....when we used to rollick and frollick around college campus.
