That was the weekend of Dec 15th, 2006 when I came back home. Desh. Who would have guessed that 24 hours prior to that I was going through the most painful time of my life. I have been on an extended vacation ever since. This Dec I won't be going back, I won't be going back to the city that has seen me grow into what I am today. There are certain things that hurt... really bad, which seem to be spread all across the city and till I get comfortable with that fact I will continue my vacation here. But the weekend of Dec 15th, 2006 will always remain embossed in my heart, it got me through a barricade of pain.

Ashish, I never did thank you for this but I'm sure you know how much that weekend meant to me. Haan fir!

I be.
