Life@145

Krish was in front of his computer with a plate of Good-day biscuits and a cup of tea. He heard his mother saying “Krish, Take bath at-least today. It is going to be almost 3 days since you took bath”

Krish scratching his head gave a weird reply “Amma, it was only 2 days back that i took a bath”

Mom replied from kitchen “Do whatever you feel like doing. But take care you don't smell bad.”

Krish felt cold suddenly. He was not like this when he was in his college and now............. What basically changed? What is happening to him? Why is he like this? Who is he?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here we go,

People used to call him Krish but his name is Krishnamoorthy. He is expected to join TCS by the 25th of august. He completed his course by the end of april [Thanks to the state election]. Since april, his only job everyday is to check the facebook account and update his status at-least once a day. He was waiting for august 25th, not because he can join the company and do service to TCS. He was waiting for the day to get along with his friends and begin his 2nd innings of college there.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He was online in his facebook account and suddenly felt like checking his account in orkut. Just to check the testimonials written by his friends. While reading the testimonial written by cheena, he clicked on cheena’s name.

Cheena’s profile loaded. He clicked on the photos → ooty tour. He was smiling even without his knowledge when he saw the photos loading. He clicked on the first picture and it loaded [ first a dim shade and it became sharper as it was a digital camera high quality photo ]. He saw himself wearing a t-shirt which looked like that of a painter. [ To be more specific..... T-shirt was brown in colour with horizontal stripes. Excluding this it was designed like paint was randomly sprayed on it ].

Krish was smiling while his mind flashed back to his second year hostel room. 145

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Time : 02:30
Place  : 145, GCT Hostels - 2nd year
Date : hmm......[Don’t remember]...... :)
Event : 04:30 - Ooty Industrial visit for EEE and EIE

“Dai cheena, how about this t-shirt” Krish was shouting at the peak of his voice. He was asking this for the 36th time (i.e) he changed his t-shirt 36 times.

Cheena gave a smile and told “machan, weight da...”

Krish smiled at the others in the room and they also gave him a smile back to tell the t-shirt is good. Others in the room were devanand and anumanth squares. [ anumanth & anumanth are dear friends sharing the same name, initial , YOB, MOB but different DOB ]

Devanand (shortly called as deva) spoke for the first time “you look like a painter da”

“See deva, this will become fashion after our tour” Krish told

“Iyerae, hmm...... you are not ajithkumar da..... to make something fashion by wearing it” one of the anumanths told as the other one nodded.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Suddenly when krish touched the tea, the hotness of the tea brought him back to the real world. How beautiful life was when he was in 145. Scrolling through the photos, he was thinking of the roommates anumanth and devanand. Anumanth was caring and more adjudtable while devanand is a lovable guy but he wants the room & surrounding to be clean always. The other anumanth and cheena were not his roommates but they were day-scholars spending most of the day in their room.

Krish’s eye was struck on one of his group photo and his thinking now changed from 145 to sunitha....... His mind flashed again to their beautiful days in college.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Time : 16:30
Place  : pykara falls, Ooty
Date : The same day

“so........... what do you say” sunitha asked keeping her eyes away from him.

“See, Let us wait till the final year. We will have job in our hands. If we talk about this that time, the reception will be slightly better than now” Krish told.

“You think so” sunitha asked like a child.
“For sure.....” Krish told and he opened his mouth again......

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Krish, You will never listen. Take bath or at-least think of it” Mom told from behind him

“Amma, I am going to a matinee show today. Before that I will take bath” Krish told

“Movie.......... hmm.................ok” Mom said and left the place.

The mention of the matinee show took him to his 3rd year of college.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Time : 12:20
Place  : KR bakes, Venkitapuram
Date : Probably someday in September

Krish was sitting opposite sunitha asking her “So, what shall we order?”

“Anything you take” sunitha told with a shyness in her voice.

Krish was about to order while his phone started vibrating. The name showed it was devanand. He didn’t pick it. He placed the order and few minutes later the phone vibrated again and this time it was cheena. Then in few minutes he had a total of 21 missed calls from deva, cheena and anumanth squares.

“Why don’t you pick it” Sunitha was asking and suddenly she turned cold. Krish was worried about the change. Sunitha told “A call from deva ….............to my mobile”

“Don’t Pick” Krish told but she replied “I am not like you”. She attended the phone and in tension she also turned the speaker on.

A childish voice asked “Hello, give the phone to krish”

Krish replied “Ya, I am here da.”

Deva continued “ Dai dacalti, Where are you? We are planning for a matinee show and can you join”

Krish fumbled with words “I.I am busy da.... you …...You carry on”

“rite da.....bye” Deva told while krish and sunitha heard smiles from other end of the call.

“You are an idiot” Sunitha told and Krish was still shivering while she continued “But a sweet idiot”

Krish smiled, a broader one this time.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“What happen to you krish, you are laughing to yourself” Mom asked standing near him

Krish suddenly realised and told “Old Memories amma”

She tapped his back and went away from the room. Krish was about to get up from the chair while he heard his phone ringing. He picked it up and told “Hello” while he heard a lot of noise from the other side.

“Iyerae , This is cheena and we are on a conference da. You, Me, Deva and Anumanth square..... ” cheena said.

“yup. Whats up da.” Krish asked.

“Did you get the news. Sunitha is getting married next month.....” Anumanth said.

“What the hell are you telling....... She must have......said …..said …....i can’t understand.... when.....where....... who told you.... Hold on....   ” Krish was blabbering while he heard few smiles from otherside.

“Are you kidding.... Idiots....... !@##$%^*()&^$” Krish blast into laughter after shouting at them for few seconds.

“Krish........ She will get married one day. If you are not the bridegroom that day..... You will be killed four times.......  ” Devanand told

Krish heard a chorous “Yes........ You will......”.

Krish had a thought in his mind “I am lucky to have them as my friends. They have made me happy. They have found the talent in me. They understood my problems. They have consoled me and today they are concerned about future also....... THANK YOU MY LORD......for giving me such wonderful friends.”

5 Idiots

There was a dark room locked from inside and only light inside the room was the light from the monitor of the system. Five people were inside the room. One was talking and others listening. Except his voice there was no sound.

“So, This is our Plan. I will show the map later. We go with 3 - 2 strategy” Shiva was explaining.

“Map. Want to see it now” Stephen was stressing.

“Ok. Just a second” Shiva’s hands were comfortably moving on the keyboard.

“So, It will be Raju and me through this way and others have to take the other door” Shiva was pointing it in the map.

“Only Two of you through that way. It is dangerous” Vinay told rolling his eyes like something.

“No other go. They will expect more people from this way and have more people here. We have to surprise them” Shiva told.

All this time Raju was typing something in his mobile but suddenly acted as though he was listening. He was a guy of that kind. He talks less, listens even more lesser but performs great. Srinath was listening and made gestures like a new wife will make to her husband.

“Is that all ok” Shiva told.

“Done” all four told in a single voice.

----------------

How the entire conversation looked to you. Didn’t It looked like a Plan to break through a bank or a plan of mafia attack. But it is not. It is something everyone will not know about. go reading further you will get it.

----------------

“All this plans will not work. Last time when i died no one was with me.” Stephen told.

“Machan, I was with you. Just before you died I was attacked by someone from behind and I have to hide” Vinay told

“Lets plan and see whether it works. No matter even if only one survives  - winning is important” Shiva told

“I take sniper this time” srinath told.

“Done. Me as well.” Shiva said looking at others just like asking them what are they gonna take.

“Maverick - all of us” Stephen told just pointing at others.

“Be careful. Friendly fire is on. Raju be careful” Srinath told as all started laughing

“That was unusual. Forget it. It will never happen again” Raju told as vinay had a call and Stephen opened VTV movie in his system.

So the Team dispersed.

----------------

Many of them would have got what it is all about. But for those who still don’t get it go ahead......

---------------

‘SAME TIME SAME PLACE - THE NEXT DAY’

“I know this will happen. They are professionals. Probably their only job is playing CS” Vinay told

“The case is same with us.” Shiva told

“Its ok da. Quarter finals to semifinals. Whether it this is not an improvement” Srinath said like a child.

“Dai, Only 16 teams participated da. Next round after the first is Quarter finals” Stephen told.

“Its ok. It is better to maintain the image saying Semifinal exit” Shiva told

“What next” Raju asked looking at shiva.

“Just now checked in website. There is a match in KCT tomorrow” Shiva told.

Everyone laughed and the room went dark again. The plan starts again and execution will come good one day was their dream. It was not about winning. It was not about Planning. It was about Pleasure of Playing. It was a Memory that you can take from your college and keep it for years. Think of the pleasure you get when you think of all this when you are 60+ years old............................................

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL............ with friends.
