MY CRY BABY - Part 2

Part two

Thanks to my engineering college that I had the best years of my life. Starting a new life in college can seem a bit strange at first due to the new found freedom especially to the hostellers. Managing money, getting along with strangers and what not. As that was the first time we shared space with non-family members, it was kind of hellish. Sometimes study time was compromised but we all used to have a gala time.

The first taste of egg and meat (I was a strict vegetarian), cigarette and booze went uneventfully as she turned grumpy and didn’t talk to me for I don’t know how many days. Come on, this is very common in guys hostel.

The best part of college life happened on weekends and we never used to miss them. College life can be sometimes so exciting that mostly I forgot to sleep well and to take care of
myself. And here comes my cry baby with all the lecture about being healthy and safe.

Even though we were in different states, we were in constant touch with each other. All thanks to the web world. The best part was when she used to encourage me to think out of the box, from a completely different perspective. Due to the difference of opinions we used to fight a lot, literally. But in the end, everything was sorted and as good as new.

One day all of a sudden she asked me to be her brother (Oh before your thoughts wander let me tell you that I am younger to her by 4years), it strangely felt good to be considered as a part of her family. We were devoid of sibling love and she was all I could wish for. That thought never crossed my mind till she asked, I considered her my best friend forever. She is the person whom I can look up to whenever something bothered me. Even though she didn’t solve my problems, she used to listen to me without being judgemental and cleverly, she would divert the topic and talk about all random stuff, lifting up my mood.

Having a sister is like having a best friend you can't get rid of. You know whatever you do, she'll still be there. It's reverse in my case though.But I know I can always count on her no matter what. I couldn't guess when I became immensely protective of her. I really hope to have a very long lasting relationship with her.

Thanks to the messaging applications and web world that we texted each other till early in the morning.

Thanks to her parents for allowing her to do so (sadly, she was a day scholar student and her mother knew about her only son, me :p)

Thanks to the crisis of her family (I know I shouldn’t say it as a good thing) which led to more ease of communication between us on sensitive issues. Having said that, it made her gloomy for a long period of time. She used to wake up at early mornings due to nightmares.

Time flew by and gradually the divulgence reduced. For me, it was my studies, performance and thinking about post graduation/placements. Her medical postings went quite stressful with all the patients and their related work, but eventually it finished relieved her immensely. Her convocation was a huge affair. Life then, took a huge turn.

Authors note:
