At night I have checked Suvarna’s friends list in facebook and found Lakshmi. I don’t know whether it was the same Lakshmi I have met so called Suvarna immediately to confirm. She said she is the same Lakshmi. So I have sent her friend request. Within few seconds I got a message saying Lakshmi has accepted my friends request. Then, I have started chatting with her in personal chat and I used to receive late replies. So I have asked her whether she is busy, then she informed me that she is busy in a group in facebook. Immediately I have asked which group. She has joined me in the group instead of telling the name. The group name is Allari Pillalam(AP). I was surprised to see that the group is very active though it has only 100 members. Admins has welcomed me and others has started chatting with me. I forgot to tell you that I became an expert in chatting as I have 8 months of facebook experience. Initially when I have joined facebook, I used to have very few friends and also I used to access it only for 1 or 2 hours per day. After one month I have started accessing facebook for 5 to 6 hours per day, as I am job less and need to pass the time. Then, in three months I am addicted to facebook. In these three months I have been joining in groups and have observed how others are chatting and how girls are responding. I have seen that most of the boys are flirting and girls are responding to it well. So even I have started flirting with girls. Now, I became expert in chatting as I have been learning chatting techniques since eight months. I found Allari Pillalam group as very attractive. Genrally people become friends in facebook and they meet outside, but here my case is entirely opposite. I have met Lakshmi outside twice and became friend with her in facebook. I have observed that Krishna is flirting Lakshmi a lot and I felt jealous of it. I have observed all the previous chats in the group and came to conclusion that Lakshmi has not met anyone in this group and she is a active member here.

Next day when she is online I have started teasing and flirting her. While I was flirting her, Krishna came inbetween and surprisingly Lakshmi supported me. Krishna has left the conversation and I have continued. I came to know what she likes and what she doesn’t. One Friday while chatting, I have informed Lakshmi that there is a walkin in Infotech on Sunday. She has enquired whether I’m attending, I said yes and asked if she would come. She said yes and informed me that we will meet near Maitrivanam around 9am. As discussed we met near Maitrivanam around 9am and took 10H bus. We went to Infotech and was shocked to see the crowd over there. This is my seconf interview and the first walkin after coming out of my college. I though there will be very few people attending interview but here it was just opposite. Even Infotech was expecting around 1000 members but 2000 members have turned up. So the company has collected our resumes and informed us that they will call us for an interview. We both got dissapointed by this and returned to Ameerpet. I have asked if she would like to come out for lunch, without any hesitation she said yes. I’m very happy as she agreed for lunch and I have asked her where shall we go. She has mentioned teasingly that “I will come where every you want me to”. By her answer I was more thrilled and said we will go to Paradise. I know she likes Chicked Biryani so thought Paradis would be a good choice.

We have decided to meet in Hyderabad Central at 11am. I was there at sharp 11am and no one has arrived. I have called both of them and they said that they will be coming in another 10minutes. I don't like waiting but people keep me waiting for hours. Finally after 20 minutes Nani came and after 35 minutes Suvarna came. Suvarna came along with another girl. She introduced her to us as Lakshmi. We went to Ohri's in Hyderabad Central and ordered two plates Chicken Manchuria and four coke.

Lakshmi is very beautiful in half saree. Green color half saree has suited her very well. She is also wearing bangles and matching ear rings. She is slim and has a very thick black long hair till her waist and I’m just amazed with her beauty. It became very difficult for me to avoid looking at her, but as this is the first time we are meeting, I stopped looking at her as they might think about me in a wrong way. I spoke with Nani, Suvarna and then started conversation with Lakshmi. Suvarna said that Lakshmi is also searching for a job. Lakshmi voice is very sweet, I made her talk more by asking open ended questions, but I felt that Laxmi is a tensed to talk so I didn’t disturb her much.

We sat there for almost two hours and planned to go for bowling near Image Hospital in Ameerpet. We played bowling and enjoyed a lot, Nani has won and I stood second, Suvarna and Lakshmi both played one game together and they stood last. I wonder how tender girls are, they are finding difficult even to play bowling. From there we went to Icecream shop opposite to BigBazar in Ameerpet. We spent almost five hours, Suvarna said we will go now. I felt very sad and requested them to wait for another hour, but Suvarna said that we need to go, however we will meet next time. Both Suvarna and Lakshmi left then Nani and Myself went to BigBazar for site seeing. I told Nani that I liked Lakshmi at first sight. He laughed and said All the best. He said we will ask Suvarna more about her and he left for the day. I returned to my Hostel and told Ramesh everything. He was surprised after listening to me. He then said not to miss this opportunity. I said I will try from my side.

At night I called Suvarna and checked whether Lakshmi has a boyfriend. She understood and said “She doesn’t have any boyfriends and she is a very traditional girl, maybe she won’t fall in love.” I said I will try and asked for her number, but Suvarna refused to give. She said, it won’t be good if I give you the number. It will be better if you take it from her. I said yes you are right.

The next day I called Kaveri and told her about Lakshmi. She immediately said introduce her to me, I want to talk with her. I said ok I will ask Suvarna if she can come next week along with her friend Lakshmi. We planned for a movie on Sunday. Kaveri and Myself met Suvarna and Lakshmi. Kaveri was amazed by seeing Lakshmi. The first word Kaveri said was you look very beautiful. I was shocked by listening to her words. This is the first time I have heard a girl praising another girl in front of everyone. Of course I’m happy listening that, but surprised. We all went to movie and then we went to Anupamma in Ameerpet for lunch. While having lunch Kaveri has introduced herself and she has asked more about Lakshmi. I felt Lakshmi is more comfortable this time as we were meeting for the second time. Lakshmi said, she is from Rajahmundry. She has completed her btech from GIET and now searching for a job, then immeditely Kaveri said that even Raju is searching for a job and it will be better if you both stay in touch and attend the interviews. Lakshmi said yes even I was thinking of that and then immediately I have asked her the number. She gave me her number without hesitation and informed that I can call her at any time. I dropped Kaveri near her house and went to my Hostel.

Part III

I came to Hyderabad after my exams. I stayed in the same Hostel but with strangers. There are two other people in the room. As I entered the room I have introduced to them myself and they also did. So I came to know that I'm going to share the room with Ramesh and Ankit. They have been staying in this room since eight months. As this room is in first floor I have never observed them when I stayed in the Hostel previously.

Ramesh is searching for a job and his native is Vijayawada. He has a brother working in Infosys, Bangalore. Even he has completed btech in CSE stream and now doing Java course. He looked very simple and caring. Ankit is from Rajahmundry. He is the only son for his parents. He completed degree and now working in a small company near Punjagutta for Rs. 8000. I have introduced to them saying I'm Raju completed btech in Pragati Engineering college this year and came to Hyderabad for job search.

Ramesh has a laptop and Ankit has a Desktop. I'm the only person in the room with neither laptop not Desktop. Ramesh has observed this and informed me that if required I can use either laptop or Desktop. I thanked him for this and we went for lunch. My results came and I got exactly seventy percentage. I was very happy, then Ramesh asked me for a Party. I took them to Mythri Bar and Restaurant. I had a beer, Ramesh has ordered for red wine and Ankit doesn't drink so he ordered a cool drink. Even Kaveri asked for treat and I promised her that I will give her treat next day.

I met Kaveri at Imax and went to MC donald's. She likes milk shake in MC Donald. After having food we went to Journey movie. Then, in the evening I dropped her at her home and I retured to my Hostel. By the time I reached Hostel only Ramesh is there in the room. He seemed to be busy doing something in his laptop so I didn't disturb him and went to my bed and started thinking. Ramesh has observed me and said, hey are you fine! I said yes as you are busy I didn't disturb you. He then said that I'm not busy just passing time by chatting. I checked with him whether he is chatting in Yahoo Messenger. Then, he said that I'm chatting in Facebook. I have never heard about Facebook so I asked him what is it. He said its a social networking site and its fun spending time in Facebook.
Then, he helped me in opening an account. Ramesh is my first friend in Facebook. He added me in a group called Sneham. I asked him what is this, then he said its a group. We can chat and make friends here. He told me how the Facebook works.
We three became good friends and starting teasing eachother everytime. I have started using both Desktop and Laptop without any hesitation. Initially I used Facebook only for ten minutes, as I have only two friends in my list and very few updates. Gradually, I have started chatting in Groups and also in Group chats. I was a bit afraid making friends virtually at the same time I was thrilled. I made friendship with Suvarna and Nani. Suvarna is from Hyderabad and working on .net technology. Nani is also from Hyderabad and working on Java technology. Initially we were restricted to chat in group. As time passed, these two people were in my friends list and gradually we exchanged our mobile numbers. We started chatting in mobile and also used to call once in a week. We even used to have a conference once in a month. We were friends for almost six months and never spoke about meeting in person. Nani brought the topic of meeting in person when we were in conference, then we all three agreed that we will meet on sunday.

Part II

We reached Hyderabad and went straight to Hostel by auto. Kaveri has sent me the address of the Hostel, so we told the Auto driver and he said Rs. 120 to take us there. We all three agreed to it and went straight to Hostel. I'm surprised with the Hostel environment. There are three beds and a TV in our room. We spoke with the owner, he said they will provide food trice a day i.e break fast, lunch and dinner. He is a very nice person with hefty personality.

I had breakfast and called Kaveri. She told me to come to her home in the evening. I said I'm busy with my classes and started teasing her. Even she started teasing me recollecting our past experiences. I spoke with her for sometime and slept for an hour as we didn’t get a chance to sleep in the train. We woke up and had our lunch, then we all three went out to check the surroundings. Bus stop is very near to our Hostel, it takes five minutes by walk. We went to the park which is beside our hostel and spent some time watching the kids playing.

In the evening I went to Somajiguda by bus and called Kaveri. She came to bus stop and took me to her house. She became more beautiful and even thineer than I saw previously. I greeted her parents and we talked for some time. Kaveri and Aunt has forced me to stay for dinner, but I said will have dinner when I come next time. I was a bit shy to have the dinner as I visited their house after a long time. I spent for one hour and then left from there. I returned to Hostel and had dinner along with my friends. The next day we went to both the institutes and paid the fees. Then, we started exploring Hyderabad. We took Metro day pass and whet to Hi-tech city, Masab tank, Necklece road, Hyderabad Central. The whole day we were busy exploring Hyderabad.

Naresh Technologies is near Satyam theater. We went to the institue to check the class schedule. They said that our classes will start from tomorrow. We came back to Hostel and watched TV for sometime. Finally, our classes has started. There are around 400 students in the class room. I wonder how they will teach Java to 400 people at a time. Class started and the lecturer is holding a mike and projector is turned ON. Initially the class was very noisy, later it became very silent once the lecture has started. Java class is for one and a half hours in the morning and testing class is for one hour in the afternoon. I can see all young people on the streets. I though everyone who lives in Hyderabad and who comes to Hyderabad will join classes in Ameerpet. I have called Kaveri and informed about the class environment, then she said that Ameerpet is very famous for educational institutes, hence the area is very crowded. I have a habbit of speaking to Kaveri for 1hr everyday. I don’t know what we speak but the conversation goes on covering all the topics. Daily I used to call home and to my best buddies I used to call twice or trice a week.

We were in Hyderabad for almost two and a half months and then after finishing classes and Project we returned to Kakinada. We went to our college and submitted the Project. I was busy studying for my final semester. I have sixty nine percent till now and I'm working hard to make it to seventy percent. As exams are nearing, I started going to Kiran house for studying. He is very good at explaining things. Which ever topic I don't understand, I used to ask him and he has the talent to explain all the topics in detail and in depth with a lot of patience. He will never get angry even if we ask him for fifth time. We had combined studies and also night outs during exams. Exams have started and we all wrote the exams well. As we are in final semester we have only two subjects. After writing the exams I felt confident that I will get seventy percentage. After exams are completed Wipro company came to our campus. I have cleared written test, however I'm not shortlisted in the in the Group Discussion round. I felt very dissapointed.

Part I

I’m busy dating my girl friend and we have just started chit chatting about our life, then suddenly my mom woke me up saying Raju wakeup its already 8am. I’m very upset that my beautiful dream is vanished. I woke up, had bath and then had break fast, said bye to my mom and left to college. I’m in final year btech and my branch is CSE. I got a call from Kalyan (He is one of my best friends.) while I’m waiting for bus. Kalyan said “ We will go to a movie today so don’t go to college”. As always I said ok and went to our spot where we usually meet. We consider it as our den as no-one asks us whatever we do there. It’s Suresh’s(another best friend) guest house, its a deserted place outside our town. I took bus which is going to Samalkot. Got down near Pratap nagar bridge and went straight to our den. By the time I reached our den, its 10am. I called Suresh and Kalyan, they said they will come in 10 minutes. I don’t like waiting and everyone makes me to wait. They both came at 10.40am. We went inside and started watching TV. Suresh said that he has booked tickets for matinee and we should start here at 1.30pm. As so much time is left we started teasing eachother. By 1pm we had our luch and started from our den. Suresh has a bike so Suresh and Kalyan went on bike and I took a bus to Bhanugudi center. We reached theater by 2.15pm and movie starts at 2.30pm. Its Mahesh babu’s Dukudu movie. The movie was good, however I felt a bit bored. Movie finished at 5.30pm and we went to Railway station where we usually sit on the foot path in the evenings. We three left to our respective homes. Mom gave me boost, I had it and started watching TV.

At night I called my best friend Kaveri and told what we did today. She started her lecture, study well and don’t waste time etc.. I treat her as my best friend; she is three years elder than me. I knew Kaveri since five years. She used to stay in our neighbour apartment. Their family moved to Hyderabad and we stay in touch with eachother through mails, messages and calls.
Even my other two best friends Kalyan and Suresh know about her and they call her sister. In my life if I’m confused about anything I will take her advice as she knows about me well and she can give the correct advice.

As I’m in final year second semester, we all are busy on which project to do and whether we should go to Hyderabad for the project or we should complete the project in Kakinada itself.
My HOD has formed batches for the project. Kiran, Raghav and Myself. We have to complete the project within two and a half months. So we three decided that we will go to Hyderabad and join in Java course along with testing tools and utilize this time to the maximum. We planned to go Hyderabad on 15th of December and booked tickets. I have called Kaveri and informed her about our project plans. She was very excited as we are going to meet after a long time. As we are new to Hyderabad and never visited, I have asked Kaveri to help us find the accomadation and also to find the information about the best coaching institute for Java and Testing. She said that she will gather all the required information. I have informed Suresh and Kalyan that I'm going to Hyderabad. In two days Kaveri has called me and informed me that there are hostels in Ameerpet ranging from Rs. 2, 500 to Rs. 4,000, also informed me that Naresh Technologies is the best institute for Java and MindQ is the best institute for Testing. She said that Naresh Technologies will start the fresh batch from 20th of December and MindQ will start the fresh batch from 22nd of December. I thanked her for providing all the information in detail.
