Meeting an Old Friend

Meeting an old friend is a very pleasant experience. It brings in its wake sweet and sad memories. Last week. I was travelling by the superfast train. I was on my way to New Delhi. When the train stopped at Ambala Cantt, a young and well-dressed person boarded our compartment. He was carrying a hand bag. His seat was booked next to mine. When I looked at him closely, I found that he was Virinder Shukla who was my class-mate at school. I asked him if he was Virinder. He said that he was. He also recognised me. We hugged each other. We had met after fifteen years. He was now an executive officer in a multinational company. He was settled at New Delhi and had come to Ambala in connection with some business matter. He told me that his parents lived with him in his own house. I told him about myself. We were very glad to meet each other. We talked about our school days and refreshed memories of those days. We were so deeply engrossed in our talks that we didn’t know when we reached New Delhi. We exchanged our name cards and invited each other. We parted on a joyful note.
