Last Friday...! 

Last Friday was really surprising for me. Sitting on my office chair, i was busy in preparing report of an event and was totally puzzled with some figures. As usual the blue light flashed on my mobile phone and this time there was my father. I immediately picked up the phone and said, “ha Papa abi main office me hu, baad me baat karu kya???” but father said Mr TJ Thomas (my school principal) was sitting with him and he wanted to talk to me. “Thomas sir, wo St Joseph.. wale….” I remembered the 7 feet tall and thin man having dark black beard. As i seemed to be aspire to talk him, my father handed over the phone to Mr TJ Thomas.
We talked hardly for 3-4 minutes as he did not wish to disturb me at office. He expressed desire to see me and also invited me for visiting the school, my school. He was happy with my higher studies and said “Its good to know that my child has become a journalist, so... the journalist is coming to her school no?

OMGGGGGGGG, Thomas sir, after such a long time. After hanging over the phone, I started to sing “Aaj mai uper, aasma niche..aaj mai aage, zamana hai piche…”. Literally I was unable to speak for few minutes. Once I liked him too much and had crush on for him. I did not know whether he was aware of this ‘Bachpan ka Pyaaar’ or not but it was nice to talk to him, (Lol) :) He was our principal from class LKG to 5th  and at that time I was just a sweet girl who never completed her home work. :)  I’m happy to know that he remembered me even after 18 years. When I left the school in class 6th, I heard the heart broken news that he married with a teacher of the same school :( Any way, at this age I have lots of respect for the him just like my father.
