My First job... a new place... apprehension abt the time at this new place... that was wat i felt wen i landed at hyderabad airport accompanied by my father.. I dint know a single soul in hyderabad..
My first day in office... induction program for new joinees.. all unfamiliar faces.. do i know anyone out there??? Yes... i do...just 2 classmates of mine.. Then comes a group of Telugu speaking girls.. i dont know them... the only common thing between us is tht we all r new joinees... we ( me and the telugu group) sit together for the induction... we get introduced... i find the group very warm... we get acquainted wid each other...
I come to know that they stay in the same guesthouse which has been provided by the company.. but in a different building... I also come to now tht the group also is newly formed..they themselves dint know each other before coming to hyderabad..
We decide to search for a girls hostel..but the plan flops on seeing the pathetic condition of the hostel... Then ... Gayathri.. the tallest girl comes out with a solution... a flat at KPHB or kukkatpalli housing board colony..a 3BHK.. we check out on it and we all unanimously agree to stay there...thankx to Gayathri...
And...from then on we hav been living happily here...except yesterday... The girl who found out the flat for us left the flat...reason being her marriage being settled.. It did feel odd to all of us..its been 10 months that we hav been staying together.. laffing continously on silliest of jokes... facing problems together... small internal strifes but still bonding together again...
Today as i was saying but to her... tears welled up in my eyes... she was going for better.. but we hav got used to each others presence around ... we definitely will miss her.. n yes.. last nite it was her topic that we continously spoke on... her gud qualities... negative ones.. etc...
Noww tht she will b flying to US in a couple of days... i wonder whether we will meet ever.. coz we all will get married in some 1-2 years from now... n after tht..
I just couldnt say Gudbye to her yesterday.. i felt i was meeting her for the last time..as i wont b attending her marriage ..thts the exact time i hav to be at my home town... i knew even she was feeling bad while saying bye...
Its been 10 months.. 10 months of teasing her... arguing wid her... advising her... doing things together... n now..she wont b there..
Today as i write these thoughts down... i just wish a life full of goodness to her.. may the almighty show her the directions when need be... may she b happy in her new endeavour..called marriage....
Wish u all the best dear.. we will miss u....

i could completely relate to you, since even I went through the exact same thing, new place, first job... difference was there were some collegemates to stay with..
But now after 6 months of bliss onto hyderabad, where even I do not know a soul. How I will spend the next 6 months, god only knows....
