When You Leave Your Hometown

It's very painful when someone leave their home which they would have lived for so long years.

My dad got retired recently. In his job life, he had got a nice quarter from his company. My mom had decorated it with her love and care. I had been in this house since my birth till I complete my secondary education. My first step , going to school had been recorded in this house. My teenage, and then a new phase of growing up, everything had been seen here. My old pals and me had made life, countless memories in this town. And I can't forget it's peace, pleasant parks, restaurants and peaceful roads without rushing up like other towns.

Shifting to a different place and moving to another house is very painful. I eagerly wait for my small vacations just to have a look of my hometown. Sometimes I just miss my classes just to go back to that home where I had seen my grown up life. The thought of never seeing this place anymore tears me apart. It's hard to accept.

When my dad got retired, no one was with him in this so important phase of his life. My mom said she can't bear this pain, my brother was stucked in his job, my sister- in law was having her exams, and I was having classes and course exams. But a day before the retirement day of my dad, I talked to my dad in phone. I could feel his pain and loneliness. And I immediately packed mg bag and went off for my hometown, Rourkela. The next morning I was in front of him, being with him on the time his name getting announced in the farewell function.

I couldn't see my Home condition. It was broken because my dad had extended for comfort and the house is needed to given back with the same structure we had got earlier. The keys needed to be handover. It brought tears in my eyes. It was very hard for me to accept the bitter truth. But if it will be Sooner it will be better for me.

The home we make, the peace we live in, the memories shared, get into a diary and make a perfect infinite happiness

I need to behave in a more mature way. I need to support and give strength to my dad. I made myself understand and also my dad that we are going to get a home in this town again when I grow up and will be doing job. And we are going to fit into a new society for sure. I don't know if I can make new friends but won't ever forget my old friends. They are the only ones who have taught me how to live a life. I am sure I am going to visit this place whenever I get opportunity.
