I went home and asked my brother, a former employee of this telecom company where I bought this phone from. But he too said little can be done and suggested to get me a cell phone as a gift for my birthday. But I, being optimistic about it getting alright, asked him to wait. My dad then gave me his phone for 2-3 days, coz he knew how busy I would be on my birthday..
Cho chweet.. and then my bro called up to wish me and then my friend and then another friend.. and others’ messages. Some of the messages I couldn’t make out who were they from, since my contacts were in my phone. But generically replied them back.. And then went back to sleep..I thought I must wake up early so that I dont mess my birthday morning. I then got ready, took my parents’ blessings, had breakfast and then set out to my office. My team-mates wished me.. and I iterated the whole phone story to them.. After that, I would open something to work and I would get a call. I probably did lesser work than anyone one else.. Later, my team-mates asked me for a treat. Since there were two others who were waiting to treat the team with me, we went to Mark Bouleward for lunch that day. The treat amount was handsome though. It is not an inexpensive restaurant you see.. but its ok.. Once in a while.. in fact once in a year.
After we came back, was the surprise. As usual, my team-mates had got me a cheese cake. But with the cake, some cake cracker also. And this was the idea of Mr. K. I really cant forget this. The cake-cracker was lit and it started lighting like a flower-pot leaving no traces at all on the cake. Was a very nice one. But I was a bit scared of the sensors that would start sprinkling water on sensing fire.. And I was standing right below the sprinkler also. But fortunately it was far from happening. As soon as I went near to cut the cake, it burst and actually scared me. And Mr. K didn’t want to waste the cheese cake from Sweet Chariot it seems, so he had got another cheese cake and put all over my face, the protocol was followed by rest others too.. I had a very tough time removing the cake from my face. Someone said my face glowing after the cake facial
And after all this, my very close friend at office wished me and I left little early to home by a Volvo. After I reached home, mom was not keeping very well, got her some tablets and was attending calls again. I expected my mentor to call me from the US and he had called. Good you called. Coz I knew you wouldnt miss wishing me. And my friend too who is tieing a nuptial knot with this mentor of mine, had mailed me, I expected this too.. coz I knew she too wouldnt forget it. My friend BG came home to wish me and had got chocoz also.. Sisterly affection forced him to come home to wish me it seems.. And Mr. R wished me like 5 times Same with many others..
And, the day was almost over. Had dinner, too many sweets and got to bed. But I still kept getting calls and messages.
