Best time with my sister

Its been almost 13years or more she left India....I would have never felt like this...She visited India thrice (including this times visit)...

For the very first time this thought came to my mind "if she would have settled in India"...not that i can't fly to US or not that if she is in India i would be visiting her every month but the comfort that comes that is some what different..

My marriage preparations and other things have changed a lot between both of us...Long long discussions on phone many mail exchanges and many chat conversations when she use to get time...Both of us never cared for what would be our phone bills or what is the time i am calling her..there is a work call her up...There is some thing we both shopped for each other...shoot and send an email...I think we both stretched our time limits to mail or speak or chat to each other..Wish this thing remains the same way..I cherish the chats that we had...

This time she spent straight 15 days with me in pune and there is no work unlike last time she visited i was working from home...this time i made sure all the time is dedicated at home and that is what made a lot of difference and made more memories with anusha and avinash also...

We both use to shop like crazy...and the moment we use to come back..mom use to see covers and say "u shopped so much again" and she use to say i don't know why i shop so much how will i carry them back...We fought literally like street dogs and then we are one again..had best of the time with her in 15 days..best of time with anusha and avinash...Both of them were wonderful...now we will miss them again till the time they come to India again...We went to Jai shankar (the famous panipuri wala in pune)..had dabeli..had american corn..more than anything i think she would have consumed tons and tons of custard apple...

There were things which are left over also due to time constraints..at the end of 15 days we were so busy with the marriage things and other important shopping that some of them had to be left...Thali (i wanted her to taste maharastrian thali), she wanted to taste in vaishali, go to lucknow chikan palace to buy, Natural ice cream, eat in Indian subway(this was always on my important things list to take her to one..but i missed it again :( )...A movie together in a multiplex...this was not possible due to other constraints...but i am glad that we could all watch 3 idiots at home on TV..thanks to ICC cable...the things we missed this time will be forwarded to next time visit...then for sure there is nothing that will keep us busy except enjoying and doing more shopping...

All said and done i am into those moments till now and missing them and all of the missing is mixed with the new feeling of marriage and other set of moments that are to be stored...with all these i was reading all my past chats and mails and that made more feelings come in...

I was reading one of the chat with her which is two years back...I was feeling all lonely at that time..as that is also one of the life phases..I was completely telling it to her on the chat from beginning to end that i am lonely i am feeling lonely...she was trying to give me ideas to make that phase out of my life...at that time i was just saying and saying today when i was reading that chat i thought how would she have felt in some other country when she was going through the same phase..that time i was not even online to hear to her...

The only thing i wish today is that we continue speaking on phone the way we did and chat whenever we both can squeeze in some time...I always cherish chats cause when there is some thing else or your mood is down reading those chats refresh you and make you feel that the other person is with you...today i say it to myself that instead of waiting for her to call i will call her...to speak all the rubbish in this world..to feel that we are there for one another and will always be there...and to shop more for one another...you see shopping to give her things when she visits next time...

I don't know what she is feeling right now..cause she will be flying back tonight...but i am feeling wish 15days would have moved slowly...or each day would have more than 24 hours...I will wait for her to visit again....

Thanks to my dad that he gave us a memorable wedding anniversary to celebrate together...

Oh i forgot to write one important thing..thats why adding now..we both got our ears pierced (extra piercing normally done above the original one)...it was hell of a pain...but we both enjoyed that too...with her humor half of the pain is done...and the rest we both were nursed by mom...a forever memorable thing...when ever we touch our ears we will remember everything... :)

Love you Sis...

Priya.
