“Excuse me? It’s my grandmother’s house all right? She won’t say anything. Come”
I tagged behind him as if I was going to someone else’s house. He simply marched into the kitchen saying, “ Hi!!Patti!!! Where are you?”
Patti was surprised and totally forgot to ask me why I was late. Before she could get suspicious I told her I was held up at college with some work and so, me and my friend left the college pretty late.
“And I came to hang out with my friends around here, thought I’ll say hi to you just then she was coming in too….” , Gautham continued, “ Do you always come home this late? I thought your college gets over at one thirty or was it two thirty? I forgot….”
Ah! We managed to put a great show. Gautham gallantly walked up to his old room which is now mine. We sat there and chatted for more than an hour. He went on as amiably as a friend for more than a decade would. I barely felt that I knew him for less than a four months. I tried to imagine that he asked me out and that really made me laugh. In fact, I wondered what he thought about my sudden invitation to JavaGreen Café. Of course, it was meant to be a friendly rendezvous and a getaway from Patti’s eye for me. I just wondered what he thought. I imagine a lot to amuse myself these days. Date with Gautham!!! Nastiest imagination, indeed!!
Gautham had done his under-graduation in Chennai too. During his college days he stayed with Patti here. Now he’s got his job and he’s got accommodation. He had to cook pots of lies to convince Patti that he must live in the accommodation provided. In fact it’s just that he wanted to live alone and enjoy his life to it’s core.
Later in the evening, after Gautham left, Patti came to tell me some more memoirs of hers. Good old times, as they call it. I think, (I doubt, at least) Patti has decided to put up with me, at least she’ll have some one to talk to. She recalled the days when Gautham stayed here, in the very same room where I am now. I felt as if she meant to say it still belongs to him.
Ever since Patti tried to hush me into the house and keep me away from the sight of the rest of the family before Diwali I had developed slight dislike and hatred towards her. I wrote mails about the same incident to Mom and Dad who are now planning to migrate back to Ohio, my place of birth. I flinch each time I think Dad and Mom are no longer in Kinshasa. I’ll never get back to the place where I grew up, the place where my most cherished memories took place, the place where all my childhood friends are and will always be, the place where Sean is………

That's reality isn' t it ? You take a firm decision or form an opinion about someone but soon you realize you are wrong and you are forced to change your views.Quote:
