Art Ghar

How are we supposed to be in hostels, with friends, talk all day about our ssbs, centres, psychology, interviews and Group discussions. We lived on the other side of the door, exactly the one placed in cantonments, The balcony gave us a view of the hilltop Mussoorie, flowers of all its kinds, group captain talked about his days at the Indian Air Force, early and later life. Running round the local shops for food, breakfast and dinner and a glass full of chai. The Ziba house cafe on Rajpur road, the visitor's notebook, white sauce pasta, big bang pan pizza, lights and light music, the cozzy wrapped up ambience and the passengers carrier vikram along the route Mussoorie road. We practised late till evening in the backyard, the backyard of the house which was no less than huts drawn on the second-grade English textbooks with sheep, a garden, and roads leading to mountains around. Backyard of the house which was no less than fauji quarters within. Hours travel, Neugo from there to here, the other day bus halting at the highway shop on NH8, Delhi-Jaipur National Highway. I am not in landour but at Art Ghar, Shyam Nagar, Jaipur. You are a part of my digital camera now, the cafe owner guides me through, she is waiting there, aren't we supposed to be a Netflix rom-com, or are we supposed to be a random Holywood drama and a coffee spillover. I made sure to ensure that I did not watch tears falling, the head goes down, down the memory lane, okay we talk. The Kite Runner, the same story of Hassan and Amir Agha we were on. Through the glass window, I watched life in spring. The auto facing its back, it will be someday after months now. I spent the night half sick and half alive, civil lines dropped on all Nahargarh plans, I am alive in the bed and on a gunpoint for being a traitor. Neugo, late evening or a dull night, the other day, I crossed roads next to dwellings, all the worlds apart, I believe to be in one life at a time, the havmor still parks at your space, Shakti Nagar. Kamla Nagar, University area, Bungalow Road
