She glanced at her watch and sighed. She had been on the flight for the last 12 hours and there was still a good two hours to go before she would touch down.
She was away for the last three years, two years of it spent in getting her Masters Degree and the next one year exploring the country, meeting new people. She had no plans to come to India, but an email changed her plans.
It was 3 weeks back that she received a mail. A batch get together was being planned and the email was an invitation for the same. It was almost four years since they graduated and this was the first get together. The invitation was a generic one that was sent out to the entire batch. She realized not too many people would expect her to be present.
After two days of deliberation, she decided she did not want to miss out on the fun. There were a lot of people she wanted to meet. She knew there was a possibility of bumping into him, but that did not deter her from making the trip. Three years was a long time and she was hopeful about things being different. She wanted to give it another chance.
"We will be touching down at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport in 5 minutes. The temperature outside is a warm 22 degrees. Enjoy your stay in Hyderabad.". The pilot's booming voice brought her back to the present.
In five minutes she would be in Hyderabad. She wanted this to be a surprise to everybody including her family and hence there were no calls made.
As she waited for the luggage to arrive, Aditi was filled with Joy for having finally made it to Hyderabad.
Maybe this was a trip that might change a lot of things and she looked forward to it !!
