My quaint little town

Right after I got my hands on my UG admission, I was quite excited about my new hostel, experiences and everything that the medical life had to offer. My roommates and I were just the same when it came to our affinity towards the family...
I could still reflect back to those vivid memories to that crazy evening of 26th July 2011..
We were those 18 yr old kids who bid bye with a toothy grin like we finally set our foot on a place where we really belonged! Alas, all that we got back from the parents' side was a intensely emotional teary bye...
But then, exactly ten minutes after they left back home, we came to the realisation that our parents had left us in a really new environment. All that my roommate and I did was to look at each other frown faced still managing to console each other..
We were really really homesick..but owing to the hectic medical school schedule and long tiring travel hours, I could go home only when I got more than a couple of days leave, putting up the majority of my days in the hostel!
But the super pampered kid that I was and still am, my parents never miss an opportunity to come down and meet me, which was a mandatory ritual on every birthday.!
As days went on and on and on.. Tadaah, 4.5 years had gone by, the same way.. There were those days I enjoyed being with the bunch of people who got the same ambition as mine, there were also the days were I  ended up sobbing and sick for being far from home..
Somewhere down the lane, I thought that it would change by time , but then I was proved wrong.
Everytime I went home on a vacation and returned back, I had this strange feeling of not wanting to go back but had no option!
Then I realised, I wasn't troubled by homesickness, rather town sickness, maybe!
Many a times, people do ask me as what made me wanting to flee home and never go anywhere but stay there during holidays..
Well, I was born and brought up in a typical suburb, which is very famous for its silk weavers and bamboo home decors since eternity.. Where, a mere walking down the busy hustling bustling road infuses your nostrils with the aroma of the coffee beans that get fried and powdered by an old thatha whilst gingerly adjusting his glasses in that quaint little coffee shop that's been running for almost eight decades now, the concurrent clinking sound of the glass chai cups along the flavourful aroma of the beautifully brown hot ginger chai getting poured in the local rajasthani shop, also the appetizing spicy aroma of the yummy seekh kebabs and drool worthy tandoori chicken and fried chicken... And ofcourse , fragrance of the freshly plucked and tied flower strings!!
My place is just a thirty minutes drive from the main city and a couple of hours away to the most happening cosmopolitan hitech cities of South India.
The feeling I get here is something that I would never get on any other place and believe that this quaint town has got life than any other place on the earth. Like any typical suburb, people from all social classes are in peace.. It is place where you can never get lost because the roads werw constructed in a way that they are at 90 degrees to each other. This town still houses streets, ancestoral homes and temples that are there for more than two decades!!
I've ran through the streets of this town making my mom run behind me while feeding food. I've fell down and still cycled the whole residential town stopping by and collecting bright orange gulmohars blooms and fiery red hibiscus and what not! I've grew up eating the pani puris and kachoris sold by the marwaris inherited as their family businesses who were here since their ancestoral period. Trust me, I've been to Bangalore , Mumbai and so on.. But no where could I find the taste that matches with this. !
Summers here are scorching hot where temperature shoots upto  40 degrees, Monsoons are always the bestest for they fill up the rivers and you can also spot brooks if you're lucky enough! In winters, the temperature drops almost upto 13 degrees where a typical winter day would be gloomy with fog and mist swarming your way in the mornings and mild breeze during the noons..
Everyone has a happy place in their life as this  is mine, as someone rightly put it in a song that goes - sorgame enralum adhu nammoora pola varuma..!
