I remember how I used to stay inside the hostel all day long avoiding classes and classmates. I would sleep for hours and sometimes emerge out of the room only for lunch and dinner. Juniors did not know any senior called Shobhita! Batch mates thought I was their junior. I wish I had spent a little more time outdoors. And its not just about 4 years at college, it’s about ‘always’.
Whenever I have had friends around me, I have avoided them. Today, suddenly I feel so alone. I miss friends. So much that I had to look for my old diaries and read every page to avoid loneliness. I went through old photographs too.
Life leads us to such moments in life where all we have is regret. No amount of consolation is enough.
The worst thing is that there is nothing I can do to change the past.
All we can do with time is to use it judiciously. There is no reverse gear in real life.
I miss all my friends.
