Chapter 1

Tuesday 22nd - I see a day "free" for me in my autumns schedule, and I am again on the same express highway - this time it leads towards Pune, it goes to her.
To cut it short - we both meet our extended families, and the time flies in a concord...
Again the begining of a new day...

Dream or reality : Om's part of story

Okut happens to be a timepass tool, here at SPJ, but I got the BEST out of orkut. One day, I subscribe to group from my primery school. I added everyone from my class - the people last seen some good 14-15 years ago. There was a mad looking girl, called "Supriya" she claimed to be a chatterbox, and her scrap count proved it.

We started scrapping, and even my scrap count was going northwords. One fine day I decided to add her in Google Talk, and thats it. There was a boy - doing his MBA in operations, from SPJ, a premier BSchool, and on other end there was a girl, who did her MA, and both were talking on Kaizen, JIT, and all the japanese things in manufacturing (I still can't spell japaneses). I was shocked. I realised I knew nothing, she was much much better than me in my own field.

I started on backfoot.
Then we kept in touch - for many days and weeks, and then she disappered all of a sudden, for few days. I almost lost track, but then there was a scrap in my orkut, that changed everything.

We met first on 25th July - late evening near plaza, then had dinner and left, and thats it.
Then she came to SPJ for most wonderful sunday - we sat in our bistro, and had a walk - really long walk. I really don;t know how long it was - the time was stopped, but it was best thing I ever did. We went to malls, had ice cream, and had dinner, but I simply enjoyed being together, and that was the point.

We met at Vaishali, went to Fergusson, our good old college - where we spent two years together, but didn't meet a single time. Had wonderful time, and then started missing her like crazy.

We were in Mumbai - together - for hours we chateed chatted and chatted. I was driving on the expressway - the same one that we took - for our lives, it was raining heavily, and Sahyadris were green. Before I could even think of time, we were in Mumbai - the roads didn't bother us - nor did the rain.

Next time we met - we ate like starved people from somalia - we had juice - we had bhel, and then chinese at Juhu. But the best part was the beach. So clear - so serene - so pure that we wanted to be there AGAIN - TOGETHER, and the reason was - Camera. That day I introduced her to my friends - my groupies, and my old frineds from engineering.

Sixth time, we met at Dadar TT - then went to the supremeo how I belive arranged for us to meet - Siddhivinayak. It was wonderful to go there with the girl I love. Amazing. His blessings were there, otherwise why would she come from Japan - crossing the sea. We wanted to go to movie, but spending more time togther was more important - we went to JUHU - AGAIN.

Did you realise - my "I" has now become "we" - even as I recollect it

Now the finale : you won't believe - but it was crazy
21st August 2006
I had no lectures till 2.00 pm. There was a presentation scheduled, but it was postponed for 22nd - Here i was sitting in a RDBMS class, prof walks in - and ther opens a popup window on my lappie - googletalk - and on other side is my jasmine. We started chatting, and topics changed a lot, discussed many things and shared many secrets, and then there was THE MOMENT - guesse what - proposal - most imortant thing for the relationship was TYPED, not said, we did it ONLINE. We were crazy to do it that way, but that was only thing possible. I still don't know why - but rather why not? We both felt same thing, and we were rady for it.

Within next few hours we spend a lot of time, and the telecom companies must have earned a lot. Like true kids of mom and dad - both of us got "approval" from our families, and here we are....

At the begining of a new story....

Both of us like one thing in flying - the takeoff, the way things change - fast really fast. We took same path in our lives. Everything in last month was changing fast.
On 25th July we had not even seen each other and on 21st August we decided to spend rest of our lives together. The way we met, the way we dated, and the way we proposed - only one word can describe it.... CRAZY. Its now start of a story.
