A world waiting to be explored

........the story has begun......

A strange feeling it is when the moment you were waiting for is just moments away from you.....
It is one of those feelings RK was experiencing.....A brief retrospection.....

September 11, 2010
------------------------
RK was one of the most loved guys of the college.....from his school days, he was good at academics...though he never topped......neither did he ever top in college......

Back here..!!!
That was the day, a very reputed firm was gonna visit the campus.....and it was a firm RK always wanted to be a part of......he was curious, anxious, feeling excited.....and was going through every possible feeling......
While driving his way to college..to overcome the "hysteria", he played the music but something had pre-occupied his mind....
"what if I falter ?"
"what if it doesn't work out the favourable way?"
"what if.........................................................??"

10:00 am: He stopped at a traffic signal.....and looked at the kids begging for money......this was something at which his heart would spill out and he wanted to do something to help but at this stage of his life neither did he had a platform nor a clear vision as to how to go about it....???

he tried to focus on the job in hand......
10:20 am: He reached the campus...parked his car and walked straight to the auditorium where the pre placement talk and the further process of the company was to take place.....

in the due course of the day,,, there were a few rounds...RK successfully managed to make it to the final round where he was against the 7 best in the college...

There was a break of 45 mins before the final round......and it was 11.30 pm....

12/Sep/2010, 01:30 am: "A gift to embrace, a race to conquest,
                                       there are moments you face, those moments lead you to the best"

11/Sep/2010, 10.40 pm: RK closed his eyes and tried to re-iterate the things he had prepared for the final round

12/Sep/2010, 01:20 am: "A night to remember, a sight to remember"

11/Sep/2010, 10.45 pm: As RK closed his eyes, he saw a sight.....he was standing in front of a very tall building.........

12/Sep/2010 01:15 am: "Dreams are big..so are the aspirations"

11/Sep/2010 10:50 pm: He tried to identify the name coined on the name-plate of the building.....

12/Sep/2010 01:10 am: "The road less travelled...the path less taken"

11/Sep/2010 10:55 am: Suddenly everything started to get illusioned...there was a whirlwind......

12/Sep/2010 01:00 am: "The moment had come...had to make a choice....but the road  diverged.........."

11/Sep/2010 11:00 pm: RK kept focussing on the name-plate inspite of all the clutter around.....

12/Sep/2010 12:55 am: "Was a tough call......"

11/Sep/2010 11:14 pm: "RST Business Group"........written at the top of the building......

12/Sep/2010 12:50 am: "I knew I would have to............."

  5. Its a good story. Just a small suggestion. Stop using so many full stops. It distracts and is not good when you are writing fiction esp. :)
