At the Cafe! Chapter-1

Introduction

Hostels are hell, while Saturday and Sundays are the borrowed sorrows from the week days!

Enaya was still struggling to get out of her bed, while the cool breeze where kissing her naked skin and making her feel good. Her quilt was giving her warmness like any man's arm would do, and her favorite wooden and steel wind chime were reproducing the sound like birds would do.
There was a knock at the door by a warden and it was just 6 in the morning. Enaya placed her foot under the fur slippers and shouting impatiently at the warden that she is in bathroom brushing her teeth. She was not really a morning girl, but hostel rules change everyone. She went out in balcony, placing her arms near her chest waiting for the sun to wake up, as this time winters has arrived early in the mid of September.
She was born in the city of valleys, hills and greenery and played her childhood in nature, while this crowded city was not giving her peace of mind. She belongs from a small village situated 22 kms away from the beautiful city of Dehradun, but seeing her passion for learning and singing her family shifted to the main city where she got good schooling.
She always miss the essence of Dehradun in the crowded city of Ahmedbad. She was here to pursue her masters in  Computer Engineering from very reputed college, St'Xaviers college
She was an eye candy of the college campus, because she was beauty with brain. There were no exam where she didn't topped the charts.

She was an introvert and would like to spend her time with books instead of college friends, but she had one more friend, with whom she spend her time after college and during weekends and that was her favorite window side table facing to the earthen side of garden, where she try to connect with the nature again at the Cafe, called "The Friends Cafe".

She quickly got ready for the regular mass held every Sunday at the church since the hostel belongs to a Catholic community. She really didn't enjoy attending the mass being a Rajasthani but still pray with her heart. There were few friends of her who use to drag her for movies and outings after the mass, but she prefer to spend her time by jotting something into her favorite blue diary with teddy bears and mini designs on its hard cover.

She went to the Friends cafe and as usual she was served with American espresso and garlic bread, as her menu was fixed and she was been the regular customer. She would open her laptop, surf a bit, and then open her blogger page and start blogging about whatever comes to her mind, and unfortunately she did not publish them, because she could not complete it or she felt it was not worth reading, but thanks to google all her post were autosaved!

There is a thunder in my mind
A storm in my heart,
Life has been the way I wanted to be,
But I could not identity what is missing,
I have friends, whom I really don't care,
I have family who is mile apart
I have books, but they no longer entertain me,
I have this cafe which do not belong to me
This birds will go away as evening will fall
And again I will go back to bed, and ...

She again left it incomplete and shuts down the laptop, as she was done with the day by having mass dinner with the hostel friends.
