Sayonara Hameed
Sayo was a 23 year old girl
She was incredibly intelligent, smart, hip, brainy and articulate
She was almost a Chartered Accountant with Ernst & Young
She was on the way to becoming a great success story...another one of the shining torch bearers heralding in the New India
She was also my class mate of 3 years in college
I say was....because Sayo is dead today
She got hit by a bus and succumbed to her injuries. I was just told this a few minutes back
My feelings and reactions have surprised even me
An overwhelming sense of anger. An overwhelming, teeth gnashing, fist clenching sensation of wanting to lash out.....lash out at the driver who did this...at the authorities whose oversight lets such guys drive..( it was a govt. bus)...lash out at God for the injustice and cruelty of the event
The sprititually inclined or worldly folk would say that these incidents happen...for a larger reason...or thousands of people died in the recent Tsunami...
Why did she have to die? Why was such a full, lively, charismatic spirit crushed...snuffed out in such a manner as an auto crash?
I only feel incredible anger and pain...no hint of "understanding"...no sense of ...anything...
I feel helpless
Sayo...the manner in which you lived...I and I am sure many, many others will never forget you

Sayo to her very large and wonderfully classy friends,
Shamol to Papa
Sha to Mama and elder sister (called by Sayo as Thatha, meaning elder sis in Malayalam language of which she knew little)
Shalu to many others
That was my dear daughter, also the best friend I ever had in my nearly 59 years of life.
She was truly special to me, the boy I do not have, the one who promised to look after me in my old age, the one who corrected, advised and counseled me even in my official life.
She had such great friends, pals, admirers that I never had in my life of nearly 59 years.
She choose Aravind to be her life partner, because she alway was sensible,classy and very sure of herself. I never knew the intensity of that relation, never could discusss this with her, because we waited for her CA final in May next to be over, and she took it as a challenge. Now she is gone and left me Aravind only.
All of you friends, pray for her She is resting in peace in our family grave in a village known as Andona near the Town Tamarassery, in Calicut dt of Kerala with full of treas around her. I will miss her terribly, as my dear daughter, my best friend.Hamid
