Ragas Of GITAM... Part 1... 1 Text Message Received...

Kokila Sadan ( GITAM's Girls Hostel)

Room No: 353

She looked at it for the first time. Nokia N 90 model...It was on Shwetha's bed. She had left it there and gone out. She bought it a year ago. From then, she had been using it all the time. It was strange indeed to see her leaving the mobile alone. She looked disappointed today. Slowly, her eyes were closing... She could see a panorama of incidents flickering in front of her eyes....
 

Shwetha and Shruti were roommates from the first year. Shwetha was very studious and had got a good EAMCET rank. Her world was made up of only one component.... books....books... books... She was very attentive in class doing all the problems... She was very friendly with her discussing every single event in her life... and soon they became good friends...
 

In the second year, things changed a lot. She got a mobile phone. During the 3rd semester, she used it as just an alarm to wake up. In the 4th sem, calls started flowing in....she could see her walking in the place in front of gate having long conversations on the phone... slowly, she disappeared from her world...
Two weeks before, she could hear her conversation with some guy on the other side. They were actually quarreling with each other. The other day, she saw tears coming from her eyes ( of course, just for a few seconds!!)


" You and I .... in this beautiful world...."


She woke up by this ring tone of her mobile. She could see a message blinking on it...

" 1 new text message received"



She looked at it. " Go and read it" Her soul said to herself. She was thinking.... But Slowly, her hands were reaching her mobile....
