Rich and classy interiors,
glassing floor and clean carpets. The lavish reception hall housing posh
furniture, untouched newspapers and magazines and the LCD TV screening
the company’s recent hype and honors. An access to enter any door within the
floor and this rule applies equally from the company Chiefs to the housekeeping
buddies. So if you forget your ID card, better then go back and work from home.
Every room will be aptly lit, amply spaced and enormously cold! One must
understand that these aren’t facilitated for the living entities, but for the
systems that run nonstop inside the office. The pantries and café at
every floor will brim exactly like Hogwarts kitchen, only that you have to pay
for everything that you grab from there. People will seem young than they are
in real. A silent formal grin is spread in the air around and no question of
under dressing in here. Every individual is entangled with a Colorful story
outside that is often covered by their classy formal clothing. Bio-metric
tracking like Marauder’s map can trace any trickery happening inside the
forbidden corridors (office cabins), secret passages (lift lobby) and the dark
dungeons (basement and parking lots). During her first day induction she was
accompanied everywhere, she even had the privilege of people opening doors for
her till she got her own access. Then with a tag, she was left free ;-) First
few days she was walking bewildered where to park, who to call, landing at the
wrong floor, taking lift to different side of the building, forgetting to
scratch ID and jam at each door. This is the brief understanding of Sruthi
about her new office.

(Pls don't read this like any serious life quote, Read it like ":-p") |
This grown up girl is a new
member at her uncle’s place, which was just a 10 minutes’ drive from her
office. After being in hostel for around six lovely years, Sruthi is starting a
totally different venture at this new dwelling. This house, her second best
home is one of the oldest in the street and all neighbors are connected to here
like kin and kith. Cement floor, white washed walls, Kitchen with store room
and plastic pots, dark painted door frames, no false sealing, outside stone
bench, open water well, washing area, and bathrooms, heavy hanging sweet mango
tree, street corner temple, walking stick long umbrella and Granpa’s name
registered in every mind and brick.
Grany to hand out something or the other to
eat and drink all the time,( this includes bitter herbal tonics, millet and multi-grain porridge too), aunt to cook
all her fav, uncle to praise and cousin Aarthi to pest and play with. Aarthi’s
ink pen, record drawings, uniform, double plat, ribbons, a feet tall floor
desk, folding black board, ladybird, time table, text books and more.. These
just wobble Sruthi’s present and send her back to school. Each time when she
sees her little cousin and aunt quarreling, Sruthi gets reminded of her Ma. Maternal
side affinity is more intimate and naïve they say, and this holds true in case
of Sruthi too. Her school time summer vacation spot has now turned to be her
place of stay and she is loving it like before....
