Chalo ab ghumke aate hain. Bhaiya raat hogayi ghar chalet hain(Nisha was shy and un-comfortable, as she is elder to all, while others were exploring and enjoying the campus). Arei bas ye waala lawn dekh ke udar se ghumke khaana khaane chalet hain. Lawn bahut acha hain naa…. BHAIYA O KYA HAIN? Arei o ghadi hain. Vow…Itta badasa…!!! Haan. Aur batao kyaa time horahan hain. bhaiya saath baj rahan hain.  ohh badiya. Saath ke paas choto waala hain to saath ghante hogaya. Lekin wahan ek bada wala bhi hain naa… us se kya hota hain?? us se minutes pata chalet hain. chota wala 6ke upar hain naa. 6 ko 5 se ghuna karo. Ohh aaplogon ko abhi tak nahin shikhayana…. Sorry.

Kaam haito Chale jaaona.. bhaiya log hain naa…[I was speechless. Wondering how grownup girl she(Gudia) is? My god. So much talent is getting wasted in SLUMS]. Arei kuch nahin, didi aarahi hain humare saath. Chalo ab khaana khaane chalet hain. Where to go? Snacks Point or Pandit? Puneet do you have money? Kavita, Saumya..?? ohhh…NOO…. Bhaiya kya hua, hindi me baat karonaa. Arei kuch nahin. Bas hogaya. Its ok, I have atm card. Have 500bucks in a/c.

Aisa nahin lag raha hain…?? jaisa naach rahan hain… ha ha ha… Nisha said, Bhaiya abhi bahut late hogaya. Hum khaana nahin khaayenge. Haan bhaiyaji bahut late hogaya, khaana choronaa.

[Puneet I will bring money. Atm, long queue, its ok. Ohh its Shruti. Hi,do you have some money? Sorry sir, I have just enough to buy some stationary. I don’t know why I asked her. It was instantaneous. May be it was because, its getting late or God’s will. Its ok. I will take from atm, bye. Chkchk…pin..withdrawl..savings..500..yes..unable to process..ohh may be its not having 500 bucks… lets try 100…yes..ohh noo… atm is out of money. (from back, jaldi aavoji )Uncle no money… atm is not working… … Its good that I asked her, otherwise now I would be feeling sad for not asking her, hoping she may had some money. Now whom to ask… search search… search… all r new faces… (same situation that happened on VALENTINE’S DAY, the first day when we met these children about, teaching them got their affirmative response and got invitation t meet their parents. When I was running out of money, searching for someone who will lend me some money for RIKSHAW. Ohh I got many known couples, everyone was in their happy mood, but rejected harshly.) ..search… ohh… hi sir, can you lend me some money. Oh sorry Naga… wait Yogesh do you have some money? Yaa, how much do you want? 150.. thank you. Tring.. tring.. Puneet calling… cut].

Bhaiya aap bhi khaaona… nahin my abhi jaake khaaloonga, aap log khaalo… thodi der ke baad… Feroj asks, “bhaiya aaplog humko jaisa padha rahe hona… aisahi padhaaye honge naa aapke teachers”…. What to say this simple but intellectual question?... haan humko bhi aisehi padhaye the. Isiliye my bolta hun ki hamara baat sunke acha padho… aur aapko bhi aisa bade college me padne ki mouka milega… uske baad dedh saara paisa kamasakte ho. (Nisha says) "Bhaiya aapko Bhagwaan ne itni saare… ittnee saareeee duaayen denge ki….. mandir me baitne waale panditji ko bhi nahin denge…. Aap jahan bhi jaaoge aapko acha hi hoga". I was speechless….. what to say…. She was blessing me like an elderly person, till now even my parents didn’t blessed me like this(of course they always wish for my good). She continued…. Bhaiya pataya aaj bahut acha laga. Fir se kal le chaloge naa(this is the same girl who was uncomfortable and feeling shy to be in the campus one hour before. )nahin padhna hainaa… abhi todi din ke baad chalte hain. Theeke bhaiya, my salwaar banwaarahi hun, o pehnke aavungi isbaar. Aur din me lejaaoge naa??? Haan, camera bhi leoonga , poto bhi kheechenge. Haan bhaiya my bhi nayan kapade pahnke aavunga, acha sa nahan ke….Feroj from back… Badiya. Aur daily nahana hota hain, aur, khana khaneke pehle haath dhona hota hain, saabun se(we bought some paper soaps and distributed to five of them).

Chalo station aagaya, utro. Mast hawa chal raha hainaa. Shair aata hain kisiko… haan bhaiya mereko (Gudia) aata hain…ohh… bolo… “Chandni Chaand Se Hoti Hai, Sitaron Se Nahi, Mohabbat Ek Se Hoti Hai, Hazaaron Se Nahi” ohh acha hain…. [Mereko bhi samajh aarahan hain. Itna simple shair main kabhi suna nahin, ya to samjha nahin(in hindi :P ). ]… chalo ghar aagaya… Namaste auntyji, Namaste beta. Kshamakeejiye auntyji late hogaya. Koyi nahin beta. Thum logon ko bahut duan milenge bhagwaan ke. Chalo chaai peete hain. nahin aunty is timpe to nahin. Kyun ghareebonke ghar me nahin peete ho… arei auntyji aisa mat boliye. Aisa kabhi mat boliye ki ghareebhi hun, amir ho….!!!! Theeke chaliye peete hain. Aunty took us to Chaiwala. We had cooldrink. And when we were returning auntyji blessed us. Everyone in the hotel, were looking to us in surprise when Auntyji was blessing us.

We greeted her thanx for cooldrink and started back to campus………

This is just one more great experience for me in last 2 years. I just love it to be with them and I am lucky enough to have juniors like Puneet who care those cute angles a lot more than I do or even their parents do.
