A Two World Life

Miracle

I dropped Varsh off for his classes and went back to my apartment to finish up the last of my work. It has almost been a year since he was living with me and we had the best memories of our life. As kids, we didn't quite travel often because of the budget but now I took him with me. Me, Beckham and Arya even went on a road trip to Beckham's party. He was making big bucks like he promised so he hosted a party far from London to fulfill our promises. He came on my adventure and I went to his. I was getting ready to graduate and apply for a job elsewhere with better pay. I avoided the company Joe and Cal worked for like plague. I didn't not want to encounter Cal, especially after he has a woman (Cassie Witherfield) by his side. There was even a picture of them kissing that drove me up the wall. She didn't deserve a person like Cal. I read her interviews as she was a popular personality, and frankly even Kim Kardashian sounds better than her. I finally good a job at Swiss Finance Corporation in London. Varsh celebrated my achievement by buying me a cake from his pocket money. 

"You rock sis. Now go buy yourself a Lambo or a Jaguar or something" he said. Jaguar, huh? My first date was in a Jaguar.

Soon, I found my self driving Varsh and Arya to the airport to drop them off. 

"I'm going to miss you akka[Telugu: sister]" Arya said hugging me. 

"Me too Arya, me too."I said hugging her back and patting her back.

"You know, when this doofus told me his sister will be there I had no clue what to expect. I obviously went for the worst and thought you would restrict us and make my trip miserable, but I have to say you are probably one of the most down-to-earth girls I've met so far."

"Thanks Arya" I had no clue how to respond to that compliment. 

"I still can't believe you got a masters, sis" Varsha said pulling down the rest of the loads.

"Yeah, me neither."

"Are you going to visit the parents or your in laws then?" He asked. 

"Yeah, I'm going to visit my nephew and yeah I need to take a trip to India. I have to show off my certificate to the aunties" I winked at him.

"You do that. Let me know when you will come, I'come over to Ram annaya's house then."

I nodded. 

"I'll probably be staying at your apartment. I'm not taking a hotel ok?" I said. 

"Fine, I got a nice one off the campus so it won't be a problem"

I smiled at him and opened my arms wide open as he gave me the best hug so far. 

"I'll miss you" He said.

"Be a good boy" I told him ruffling his hair. 

"You know that's not possible" He yelled as he disappeared into the terminal. 

I made my way back home and decided to watch a movie with nothing better to do. They would land the next morning anyways. 

A few days later I booked a ticket to New Jersey and flew United. When I walked to get my boarding pass, I felt jitters in the bottom of my stomach. I am going back at last to the one place that changed my whole life. I was talking to my mom before I got in the line for the pass. I told her it would be nice if they can upgrade me to first class. She just laughed at me, but now I was the one laughing as the beautiful young man bumped me up to first class with a wink. He slid his phone number inside my passport discreetly. I winked back at him and told him good bye. I stuffed his number in my handbag without much thought. I was wearing a rather short dress, although not too revealing it brought out my curves and cleavage a bit. Nothing preposterous though. As I got ready for the long trip, I couldn't think of anything else beside my nephew. I haven't lost touch with the in-laws or Ram. I still talk to them every week and Skype them as much as I can. They weren't the kind of family to kick me out. When realized my sunglasses were still on my eyes, I got up again to pull out my bag, but it was hard to reach it without my dress riding up. I tried to snatch my hang bag down but my fingers couldn't even brush it.
