Then a Stranger…. Now my Soul-mate!!! (Part-1)

“A woman knows the face of the man she loves as a sailor knows the open sea.”
– Honore de Balzac

As said in movies and books… I still remember the way we met with no idea of what is in store for us.

College campus recruited, and placed in HP (Hewlett Packard) with Human Resources – Operations.

In the training room, with freshers and experienced people, feeling nervous, anxious and of course excited about the New Phase in my Life. I was in the second last row with my friends. Being fresh out of college, smiling, giggling, sparkling eyes looking around the room and feeling proud to be associated with this lovely organization.

While looking around and paying attention to the Training, witnessed a tall, dark, handsome guy, asking so many smart questions and answering all the questions asked by the Trainer. I was surprised, and his friends around him appreciating him for the answers. I did not know his name, but only knew that he was the smartest person in the class and I want to be like him. Everyday, witnessing his smart, bold and intelligent character, we friends used to talk about him in the lunch break. 

Suddenly one day, I received a friend request in the internal chat “Ganesh Kesavan would like to add you”. I was surprised, and looked for who this person was. Suddenly this smart guy called me and said “Jane, I am Ganesh and I have sent you the request, add me”. With my heart beating so loud that it could be heard to the next classroom, and my mouth wide open, I accepted the request. This was overheard by my friend beside me, and she started teasing me. I just said, he is so senior and this will the best way we can learn and understand the training better. She agreed. 

We used to chat the normal common stuffs, “Hi”, “How are you?”, “What you had for lunch?”, etc. In the evening while waiting for my bus in the bus stop, I used to see him walk with his group of friends and just wave a bye-bye to me. My heart used to sink and bring smile to my face making it bright like the morning sunlight. I loved this feeling and was happy. I never knew this was something which is called “LOVE”. One day he pinged me in the chat and said, “I want to meet you after the lunch. Please wait outside the Training room. Come soon after your lunch”. I was surprised and did not know how to react, and just said “OK”. Yes we did meet outside the Training Room. But, before we could talk anything, he got a call in his mobile and he went off. I came inside the room and the day went as usual.
