Down the memory lane.

After almost cancelled plans to go to devlali (my schooling place) and a lazy afternoon, i had gone to sleep with coco because of slight headache.The my dumb cell rings, it was my aunt she said get ready we are going to devlali in next 15mins. I was like WTF i am in my lounge wear and not even willing to go, but i couldnt tell her NO. So I got ready my cousin was under my house waiting for me.We all left, i told the driver to take the other route by which i went to my school, it was through the army area. I could see a flashback of everything i did on my way to school in the bus , the way i studied for tests in the noisy bus the way i fought for the window seat just everything. Then finally we reached TEMPLE HILL. It was a temple of lord "khandoba" , its fun climbing the stairs.While climbing i could see the sun set!! I wanted to start crying but i dint!. because this place is my second home, my school my life!. Devlali is the place where my maa was born & brought up and even married!. So my aunt (shes the youngest sister to my mom).She got married in her 20's so it was like some 25 odd years back. She was telling us about her arranged love story (LOL). She fell in love with my uncle after their engagement. She said that time they never had fixed landlines forget cell phones , so they wrote letters. I was *blushing* all way long. I love LOVE STORIES. But she said it was pure they never crossed the limits. My uncle came on a very lame scooter he travelled 18kms just see my aunt smile! How very cute is that. No wonder people say ::marriages are made in heaven::.
Then we clicked a few pictures, i love my aunt because shes fun to be with :) . Then we went to BHARAT COLD DRINKS, its the most famous eating place in devlali. For people who don't know DEVLALI is a CAMP area, army based. Imagine what fun my aunts and maa had growing in a camp area. People in the market know me by my name. I love that place more then mumbai!. And then we left for home, on our way we took the busier route and faced traffic problems but all what matters is WE HAD FUN. I reached home all happy and gay with a broad smile just as i enter my other cousin gives me a dumb news!
About that later..
