A Man Without a FACE!

It was a pleasant afternoon, bright and sunny. The city was buzzing with its usual chaos, people running around, lost in their own businesses and least interested in enjoying the momentous happiness of nature or the calmness of passing time...Among the vast expanse of the city's population was ONE guy travelling in a cab on its way to office... So what made him so special? Definitely not IBM! :P...In fact he was just one among the crowd and was so ordinary that he would go unnoticed in a passing street. He was yet another IT employee who goes in the morning to the office, works hard through the day and returns home late night...

After few minutes, the cab driver applies the brakes near a pick up point and the bus halts slowly and steadily...this guy finds many colleagues rushing into the bus in the usual way trying to end up in seats of their preference and ah! what a pleasure does that give! A small sense of accomplishment in making it to the window seat flows through them for a moment...! Then its all normal again and the bus starts picking up speed moving a step closer to the office. The people and the noise settle down in a few minutes and the guy starts staring back through the window, gradually getting deeply involved in a thought without his very own knowledge. So what was he so deeply thinking about? Is this something that would change his life completely or was it just a passerby cloud!

As the time passed by, all the memories flashed through his mind right from his childhood days to his present...all the moments that had deeply impacted him and have left an indelible mark on his mind. It was an exhaustive collection of snapshots flashing through in a very short time frame. It was a better movie than any movie could ever get even with all the ingredients that it could flavor with! and why not...After all, it was 24 years of his life!

To be continued....
