Strike of Thunderbolt...

Sachin is getting engaged on coming 11th...

I have been a silent observer to this whole process that extended over a span of few months...
right from thinking about getting married...
till the engagement...

I remember those long discussions on chat debating over what qualities the girl should possess...
right from the looks n figure to the nature n education...

the concept of flowchart... and the finalization and publishing of(among ourselves)...
"Steps to be followed during selection...."
"Remote short listing process" carried out...
Resulting in a "Short list" that is to be checked out....

Talks of a vacation…
That was supposed to be full of "Interviews"....
Wherein I had to Book a time slot in that "busy schedule"...
Just to meet my friend...

But when he landed in Mumbai...

I m observing something else...
The whole plans for that Interview process are gone for a toss....
The process abandoned....
Schedule Discarded....
The interviews are over....
First candidate selected...

For me it appears to be a case of the "Strike of the Thunderbolt"...
Something that happened to Mike Carleone in Sicily... (Refer The Godfather)...
Sometimes ppl call it "Love at first sight"....

Now he seems busy "Mumbai <--> Pune"...
Call from a friend gets cut at 9 00 bcos...
"He is Expecting Someone's call"...

And all of a sudden...
The appointment I had got in this “busy schedulee” has also become
"Subject to availability....”

When I try to find out reasons behind abandoned process....
I got news of "meeting of parents to finalize details"...
And a probable date of engagement....

That date coincides with "Time slot" I got from "his busy schedule"...
The function is at Pune...
It is really good that I will be making a trip to Pune...
And meet some old friends too...

I wonder if this is what happened to plans of such a consistent person....
I would rather not talk about probable fate of mine... :-O
