Old faces


Monday morning....office and my favourite pass time...logging into orkut...but today something did trouble me...saw one of my old school mates, online in orkut .Visited her profile to scrap her....saw the snaps she had in there....Was shocked to see Ronia's wedding snaps....Ronia was my best friend in school. This was not the way i wanted to get this news...
Though things happened during school days...i have them fresh in my mind...we were best of friends..there was nothing under the earth that we have not discussed.She was the person who gave me solutions for everything...we always used to hang out together...i used to be a regular visitor to her home...i still remember her sister's doggie running after my life.
We were not from same school...but went to the same tuition classes....i never used to mesh this much with anyone...all girls in class never liked us...as we never used to entertain anyone to our little girlie gang...there was a girl who joined us..later..but my memory is so bad that i am not able to recollect her name....
Even her parents seldom knew whether she was at home...as there are LOTS of people in her house...all our combine studies...little girl talks...small hang outs...i still remember..she used to be crazy for my lunch.she used to love my moms cooking....and i used to wait to get back to her place to taste her moms food......
She was my dearest pal with whom i shared everything...i dunno why and when...there was a space...
My teachers claimed that i was moving a lot away from my studies. They tried their best to convince my parents...to keep me away from my friends...I was grounded from visiting friends places, calls and all contacts. It was 10th exam fever and it was nothing in there but for books and books!! I never used to get her calls...In the class they made me sit in some different place but not near her. She used to get scolded very bad in the class...i used to cry my heart out...but was not able to support her..i was so helpless...
Ultimately i never got a rank for my 10th...i got around 90%...and i was happy with that...but what i missed in life was very big...i liked her a lot....she was my sweet and dearest pal...my first best friend....After that we were together in some classes in 11th and all...but it never lasted for long...as she changed classes...we seldom met...and it was really dying down....Landed up studying in different colleges. With the contacts I had, used to enquire about...but not much..Since I joined my job...there was no news...and i can say..i really forgot my friend! After coming to US...sitting idle for weekends...i started looking into orkut for old faces...found many of them...my tuition class mates....school mates and many...then started hunting for her profile. I had almost given up. That is when i saw this picture. The memories that flashed reminded me good old times I had with her. I am not sure of where she is and if she still remembers me. I wish myself luck to find her and talk to her soon!!
