"Congratulations 1990 batch. now you all are graduate." Shouted our principal. We were happy, We all were excited because We all were grown ups. Our new life was about to start, a NEW life.

"O my god Josh can u actually believe.. we are graduate man, we are actually legal, legal for everything.. beer, wife and adult entertainment. No one can stop us. We are free. Free like birds." said Erin. "You're right Erin. we will go to university together and will surly have a blast again. But before that remember we have something else to do??" said Aryan. "A big Yes Aryan. I do remember!" I exclaimed. I Erin and Aryan were in same high school and then went to same college. We shared a great bond. Erin was a thin but tall boy. His father owned a printing press. He had lost his mother a few years ago. His father was seeing a blonde these days.

Aryan's father was a stock broker. His mother Mishthi was an Indian. Because of a tuff pronunciation we preferred to call her Mish. She was dark but pretty. Aryan had her skin tone and was thus of dusky complexion. He was tall, had Hazel eyes and was well built. He had been popular in college not only because of his looks and money but also because of his etiquettes. He was always well mannered. I and Erin called him a perfect marriage material, it was our private joke.

Our college was over and a Master degree in university was waiting for us. They were excited for it but more than that they were excited for Our trip. Our trip to India.

I was about to turn 21 My Dad, Andrew Edwards a rich business man owned a chain of Hotels, and it was only because of him that i went to a hotel management institute. He wanted me to handle his business but i never cherished this idea. I wanted to join army but could not as i feared Andrew.

Because of his busy schedule he was not able to spend time with me, so my mother had to leave her job for me. My mother Nadia Edwards was a pretty Lady who pampered me a lot. She was an ambitious lady. She never wanted to leave her job but i guess that her love for me was more than her love for her passion. She used to be a wild life photographer and had seen almost every part of the world. From puppies to black mambas she had captured them all. She knew the delicacies of the world and how did the seven wonders look like so she wanted me to see them as well. Apart from Aryan's continuous efforts Nadia had also done may tantrums to convince me to see India.

Visiting India was not my cup of tea. I had only heard of it. It was still a developing country so a visit to a poor developing country did not interest me much. But anyways i had to go now. The tickets were booked and the packing was done. It was only a week before our departure.

I headed towards my home. It was a mansion with 33 rooms, a swimming pool, a lawn and a study. It was a big man's residence. Although i never liked my house much i had to stay there. I could not complain. The large areas always made me sick specially if i had to be alone in them.

As i entered i saw Nadia waiting for me on the dining table. She had cooked my favorite pan cakes. She was happy today because his boy had finally completed his graduation. I faked a smile and ate the cakes. After that i bid her good night and went to my room. I was a bit tired so I comforted myself on my been bag.

I picked up the most romantic classic from my side table ' The Romeo and Juliet' and wondered if love like that was even possible. I opened its first page and slipped into the story.
