Mystery ruin

I miss something today. Somehow I landed up on this thought today and it has occupied my mind since, kept my face smiling, and my heart overwhelmed.

It goes back to my college days where I was surrounded by people with same interests as me. I wouldn’t say all of them were my ‘friends’ but it was good to have them around, discuss things; share matters and have healthy arguments sometimes. All I am talking about is literature, and mostly reading books.

An episode came to my mind today, where I was excitedly talking about a book to a classmate, and she was shushing me constantly, she did not want to hear a word, did not want to know what I thought, what the book was all about, only because she hadn’t read it. And all this while I was enjoying, trying to tell her what actually happens, how the plot unfolds, what exactly was the mystery. She did this to me too when she would read something before me. In fact all of us did this to each other, it was kind of fun, but honestly we would never tell what actually happens. Why ruin the suspense, right? But it was fun to have them around.

I just miss them today, now that I am no longer among such people, in an absolutely different world. It would be good to just try and ruin the suspense for a change.

      1. Oh…in fact years later I restarted my love for library now… Here I have a good library in my city… Still I miss those college corridors, walking in the company of my books …

  1. It’s the bitter truth…the friends that we meet in college and the moments we spend them during them are priceless..they are to be cherished for lifetime. Life becomes busier after college..although we may be in contact with our old friends even after college yet social media and phone cannot be a replacement for real fun. And it’s a fact that no matter how good your colleagues are, they can never really be friends as we had in college.
