I ran down with my bag full of crackers and knocked on my friend’s door.
Hey Charu “come lets go, before the boys come down”.
“ya coming di”
We both sped through the stairs with our beautiful lehanga flowing around.
“hey Charu why don’t you go get aishu and I will go look for chitra”
“sure di”
We both split to find the rest our gangs and on my way back to the main gate
“hey kavi”
I turned around it was Satish
“Oh damn, not him again….Huh hey Satish happy Diwali”
“Happy diwali di.. you looking pretty in your new dress”
“Thanks da I got to run now…bye bye”
It was 6.30pm I could see the sun sinking welcoming a brand new night for us to enjoy.
The boys were not down yet…
We got exited and went near the main gate and kept a 1000 wala.
Hey you go light it…no way di..
Hey charu you go…huh
Fine give it to me…I will do it..
Soon the whole building looked out from their window and balcony. We four stood there as though we accomplished something big.
I saw the boys come running down and we looked at each other gave them a look of achievement.
Little did I know that it was my last Diwali that I got to celebrate.
Its been 7 years since I held a small cracker in my hand.
Happy Diwali to everyone
Burst a few extra crackers on behalf of me : )
We never know what we are missing in life unless its snatched away from us.

Hmmm....you are right. We never know what we miss until they are gone. This life is like a train. People walk into our compartment, share happyness, joys and sorrows and get off when time comes. Sometimes, we wish we could have gotten down with that someone, but it is too late. Once departed never return.
But life moves on. Cause the world is always full of people who fill the void created by those who leave us. So, no point in fretting over something that cannot be changed.
Burn the crackers, light the candle. Celebrate Life.
Happy Diwali.
happy diwali...
@CU-hahaha...athukku innum neraya naal irrukku ;)
