It had been almost an year since all of our group friends had been together after our college days. It also happened that half of them had never been to my native place. So I planned to invite them. And I was glad that all of them obliged to my invitation and planned to come up to my place. I was very happy that all of them agreed to take time in between their studies and exams to visit me. It was some 8:30 in the night when the intercity express reached my native from Bangalore. I reached the railway station on my bike just in time to receive them. I was very curious to see how all of them have changed in a year.
Not much but most of them were already on their way to get PG medical seats in their own subjects. But we were still like the young party going teenagers. I remember Dr. M commenting on me that "Hey guys, our host is wearing jeans for the first time in his life!" Well, that was true. I neither wore a jeans to my medical college nor anytime in life. But during the year, I had changed off to casuals from the regular usual boring formals. 
Then, they told me that they are hungry and I replied that nothing is available at home as my mom was out of station to attend a function. So I decided to take them to one of the new hotels in my place. They unanimously agreed and we took 2 auto rides with 4 + 3 & one with me on my bike and reached my home in 15 minutes & then we got ready to walk to our hotel. It was such a fun walking together chatting and pulling each others legs after such a long time. We got into the family side of the restaurant and ordered whatever we liked to eat. We had long conversations regarding plans for the next couple of days. When it was the bill payment time, we spontaneously looked towards our Dr. Pocket who was famous in our group to show empty pockets when it came to payment. Dr. Pocket got very anxious and told that he has got his brother's credit card this time and he would pay. We were all equally surprised and allowed him to pay. But later we all shared it which made him bit calm:-) We all reached back my home by almost mid night and the beds were already done to sleep by my dear dad.
We scolded ourselves for making him do that and not taking him along to the hotel. But my dad was happy to host us:-) We all slept off anticipating for a couple of travelling days ahead.
