About the Author

Prologue

IGI Airport T3, New Delhi – Late Night 12:45 AM

Layover Time at the airport is never fancy, it’s really late night and the connecting flight was in the morning, I thought of taking the nap. T3 at IGI Airport is really good with all the facilities.

I just have started the nap that a voice struck me…

Hi Abhi!!

Hi! I greeted.

A young man in 20’s

I read your book on Interview Questions it really helped me getting a good job in Pune

I started thinking and few days back someone given 5 stars to my book mentioning that it helped him in getting job in Pune, I thought this is the same person.

Oh… you are the guy, thanks for giving positive comments on Amazon I replied.

It’s my luck I purchased your book and able to switch the job which I was looking for long time

Again Thanks, but it’s enough praising, can I ask your name? I asked.

Hi its Ravi, I was going to Pune to join my new job, I have a flight at 3:15 AM.

Oh… gr8! I said.

Abhi, a question why you don’t write fiction novels or may be inspired by some real incidents Ravi said.

I really don’t have answer as I was trying the same for long time but did not get any such story to write.

Actually, well I think I can write the Technical Books best, so never tried I said.

Can you write about me? I have a really tough life full of adventures I think you definitely like my story Ravi said.

I thought of laughing as if the guy thinks he is celebrity and if I am here to write his biography, I was thinking to say him no directly. But, anyways I have to pass my time.

I have only 1-2 hours before my flight, I won’t take your much time Ravi said.

I don’t know why I was not able to deny him directly.

After listening you definitely write about me Ravi said.

Ok but not more than 1 hour, I am planning to have a quick nap before my flight I said.

He felt little disheartened but started his story.

I don’t know when it becomes 2:30 AM and there was announcement of his flight boarding started.

Ok Abhi time to leave, I hope you will definitely write about me Ravi said while picking his bag pack.

I have my old diaries I will courier you, if you give me your address and if you are interested in writing about my story. He said while leaving.

I want to stop him, but I couldn’t he given me his mobile number and left, I was waving my hand while thinking about what he just shared with me.

I forwarded my address to him, he replied to send the diaries in 1 week.

I took deep breathe, drank some water, and lie down on the recliner at the airport, before meeting him my eyes definitely want to take rest but now the sleep is gone.

I have got the hero of my first fiction book, I don’t know when I felt asleep, announcement of my name awakens me it was final call for me to board the flight to Mumbai.

I took my bag and ran towards the boarding gate.

Reaching Mumbai, I started searching about the incidents he described on internet and to my shock most of them were true.

So, this is the story of two young engineers it may be anyone, for me it’s Ravi and Kavya…

Snippets from the Book

Kick - Off

"All four of you just attack and try for another goal at some situation the biggest defense is to attack without any fear of losing" Kavya replied pointing towards Varun, Me, Hemant and Santosh.

Whatever she said she has given the most Important lesson of life, when nothing works rather than losing hope or fear just attack to the extent you can.

Definitely either you win or lose but you never regret that you have not tried that option when you can.

The game started again, Harsh took the ball but this time Varun and Santosh doesn’t let him take to the goal.

Varun passed the ball to Hemant, Hemant back to Santosh.

Santosh took the ball till the goal post and before Dev think of anything, Santosh passed it to Varun and Varun did the goal.

Music of my Life

I

Everyone left the room, only me and Shipra in the room and I was singing really bad.

"You know Ravi, Music is all about emotions please develop emotions you will definitely sing better, feel the music in you" Shipra said.

I wanted to say, I cannot do it but can’t say it.

I started singing back again, this time Shipra came near to me and I don’t know what happened to her, suddenly she holds my hand into her.

"Can you sing now with a little emotion" Shipra said.

Shipra was looking really beautiful, in fact she was beautiful she was wearing blue color knee length skirt and was really looking gorgeous.

I was seeing her for few minutes, her eyes were the most beautiful I have ever seen.

"Where you went suddenly I asked you to feel and you started thinking I don’t know what" Shipra said.

"No, I just was thinking the song" I said.

"It’s Ok you start I will catch up and definitely don’t do any mistake just keep holding my hand like this" I said.

Shipra given a naughty smile.

"If you sing this time well I have a surprise for you" Shipra said.

Shipra started,

"Yeh Baarish Ki Boondein, Ye Panchiyon Ki Boli"

"Keh Rahi Hai Baatein Hamari Tumhari"

My lines,

"Kuch Tum Kaho, Kuch Hum Kahein"

"Yun hi Shuru Hongi Baatein Hamari Tumhari"

Shipra lines,

"Zindagi ka safar adhoora na reh jaaye"

"Aao karein baatein shuru hamari tumhari"

We don’t know when while singing we hold each other in arms and actually we both were singing seeing in our eyes.

II

I was knowing the results and actually we both were happy, as our performance has made other’s a chance to laugh in fact a lot.

"Ravi and Prerna has also been awarded with Director Special award for their extra-ordinary performance" Saumya Mam announced.

We both jumped with joy, we were on cloud nine that time.

I learnt one thing from this incident and its written in Bhagavad Gita too, Karm Karo Fal Ki Chinta Mat Karo means do your work without worrying much about results. God will definitely award you one day.

Though the events results were fixed, we got a special award which definitely worth more than the one we can achieve max.

"Awesome, phenomenal, Extra-ordinary I don’t have word to say for your and Prerna’s performance" Preeti Mam our HOD said.

We were not the winners but definitely stole the limelight from the winners.

Everyone was congratulating us and it was really a nice thing to cheer throughout our college days.

All First Time

Anyways on weekdays there used to be very less people in coffee shop and luckily no one from college.

"Sorry, I am late" She said.

"It’s Ok" I replied.

"Have you ordered something?" She asked.

"No, actually I don’t know what to order I came here for first time, even in any coffee shop for first time" I replied.

"You know Ravi you are really a clear hearted person, and that’s why I like you" She said.

"Anyways what you will take?" She asked.

"A coffee that’s it" I replied.

Before she came I already seen the prices and its 200/- for a coffee. I have only thousand rupees in my pocket. I don’t want to be embarrassed while paying the bill.

She called the waiter and ordered two coffees and a sandwich.

Waiter bought the coffee; the cup was so big as it was looking like a ceramic frying pan. I was thinking if he will bring some cup too and we have to take coffee from that pan and drink in cup.

I asked Aparna Are they going to bring the cup too?

Aparna bursts into laughter.

"This is the Cup Ravi Ha Ha Ha" Aparna said.

"Oh, actually we have frying pan of this size in home so I got confused" I answered.

Aparna continue to laugh, and I was seeing her she looks really beautiful when she laughs. Her smile is adorable.

"Ravi, you are crazy …." Aparna said smiling.

"Do, you want to be my friend well I don’t have many so just asking you, I want someone like you to share my thoughts my feelings" Aparna said.

"Sure, I will" I moved my hand towards her.

We hold each other’s hand for some time and then started drinking coffee.

Power of Hope

I

I had handshake with her before leaving, I don’t know but it made me really happy talking to her.

I want to take this opportunity not only because it’s giving me role and opportunity I was looking for long time, but I want to work with her looking at her calmness and success she has with her in short span.

Truly saying I was attracted to her and anyone can, I was always looking to have a mentor like her in my career and looks like I am going to get one.
