Dreamt on 09-Mar-2006 [2.00 am-7.00 am]
Cause : The client of our project Mr.Sukh is gonna come next week on a visit to India.
Effect: Its morning time and I am in office , first one to arrive in my team as always.While I am engrossed preparing a query for one of the reports , I feel that somebody is watching me. I turn around and to my surprise find Sukh standing behind me.He pulls a chair and sits besides me.I am scared of that huge figure 6 ft 6" .Gosh!! . He seems to look cool as he has worn an old jeans on a weekday :) But he could not dupe me by his austere appearance.I understood there was something fishy gonna happen.He asked me to introduce myself not with respect to the work I did but about my college life and my boy friend , if I could - he said. We started talking and I got friendly to my 'Client' as we talked more. What else was expected of him, since we had become so friendly he took control over my pc
and the first thing he 'attacked' was the Personal folder of my Inbox and on my system.I could do nothing and the funniest part was I never felt like stopping him . By the time other team members stepped in He knew me completely. At lunch time he move on to other team members to know about their personal lives which I thought he was doing. But to my surprise he never asked anyone even a single question about their personal lives.When I came to know this I did not know why he did so and what was I supposed to do next.An hour passed by and I was just staring the screen .Could not even add a single 'and' clause to the query that I was preparing.
Few minutes later I heard an announcement. It was Sukh's call for me to join him in the cafetaria for helping him make arrangements for the games that he was gonna conduct . Rather I should say 'we' ( he and me ) were gonna conduct.
I had no clue why I was being pulled into all this.His infuencing jovial nature had
mesmerized me and I had stared helping him as if I was helping my father. We made all the arrangements for the games and then enjoyed everyone play too.
It was evening now and everyone was winding up their work to leave for home.
But today for a change I did not feel like rushing home. Felt like home at my
workplace.I wondered why so. But couldn't succeed in finding an answer.Most of them left.Others were busy with their work.I felt some presence again.It was Sukh again.
He asked me if I could accompany him to the cafetaria. In zeal I said yes, to know what exactly was in his mind.He started speaking ..." Priyu ...Rite ...that is what people call you ... or I must say your loved ones call you ... I know you might be surprized and wondering as to why I am interacting with you 'only' ... " I said 'Yes , I was indeed wondering why !' He continued ... "You we the first one to arrive in office thats the reason why I came to you first ... If you remember I was going through your personal stuff...I just came accross a mail sent by you to someone... and I learned something from it ...and that is 'ITS ALL IN GIVING !!' Such a beautiful thought ... which summarizes your
purpose for being alive ... your motto for past , present and future ..." And Sukh went on n on n on ... Suddenly I could see him as a fatherly figure ... And just wondered , it would have been so nice if actually it was my father in place of him who could have understood my feelings. He said he would like to meet my Dad and I said 'NOO' ...
I actually shouted 'No' when i got up and to my surprize I saw my dad standing
in front of me and he said he had just come to wake me up ... I asked him if I had
said something to him ... he said ... He had just asked if I was gonna getup now or
later ...and I said 'NOO' .... :)

You are in love [;)]...........again!
Seriously speaking...nice story. Write more...
Nice one!! Tho' do let me know how the real client turned out to be as compared to the one in the dreams? This post also gives (to me)a glimpse of the tendancy of the youths to feel free in sharing personal experiences with a stranger eager to know you(of ur dad's age tho') as opposed to ur dad.. person responsible to ur existence!! The reason for hesitancy I am totally unable to decipher!!!
