After around a month after the bone breaking accident I am back on
the driving seat. Hell yeah!! now that took a hell lot of recovery
speed. Blessed with a fractured bone I was so damn scared whether I
could easily get back on track in few days but time had other plans. A
little bit of rest, lot of mom cooked food, extra vitamins through pills
and tablets, very carefully looked after fracture ,hell lot of pain and
of course a million wishes for my well being from people who love me,
when all that put together got me the result I wanted. the bone has just
stuck!!! Yeah!! Finally am gonna walk normal without a support or a
sling around my neck, but this was all long gone. It has almost been 14
days since they all went off me but today i tell you is the day I feel
most relieved. Yes I got back to the driver's seat today!! Was kinda
freaked out thinking about the last time around I was sitting on that
seat with a 1.5 kg Helmet marked STUDDS(which eventually saved my life)
on it. Trembling fingers, frozen mind, cringing was my will to even
touch my bike. I had the split second moment from the crash lighting up
around me all the time. I had the visuals of the crash playing along in a
loop. Right then I heard a sound, the sweetest sound of engine in
ignition and a bike waiting for its rider to return. I broke free closed
my eyes for a second and got onto the bike. I remember switching on to
the first gear and slightly accelerating the bike and there I was in
seconds driving as I did earlier but certainly carried a fear in the
back of my mind until I stuck gear 5 and there started the pleasure of
riding. I just went on and on and felt 11Km ride pass by like seconds of
a minute. Damn I was doing fine!! So finally am back on my bike
perhaps not completely fit enough to drive as earlier but certainly
enough to feel like alive. Thinking rest my hand for some more days to
be resilient enough to walk on it. Finally left's on track. Happy :D
When I first came to know that I was doing to step into the boot of an employee very soon, I was preparing myself for a life completely different to what I was living. A new beginning from the end of student life, a life with financial freedom (although Dad never said “No” to my demands, but own earning is a different level of financial freedom) added responsibility of being an employee of an MNC. I was very certain of being relocated from Hyderabad. Had my bags up and ready for a journey to a new place with a new life style waiting to be discovered. As expected was called to Bangalore (now Bengaluru) and I set out planning a life in the traffic and all the rush of high class social and corporate living beings of IT Capital of India. Day 1: went on with never ending sequence of signatures. Day 2: a boring yet energetic half day. Day 3: very excitedly I reached office and was having a nice time cracking jokes and making friends. As if somebody cursed the largest laughter in t...
