“To My Roommate, My Practical Partner, My Comfort Person...Kajal”
It’s November, and I’m sitting at home....
College ended in June 2025, but somehow, my mind still keeps going back to those hostel days....to our chaos, our late-night talks, and all the stupid things we used to do.And honestly Kajal, I’m missing you a little too much today, that’s why I’m writing this.
You know, it feels strange....no one here fights with me over who’ll make tea, No one’s laughing like you do when I say something dumb. It’s just...quiet.
And that silence makes me realize how much life changed after college ended.
We started as just room neighbours then practical partners....
I never thought you’d end up being my comfort person....You’ve literally seen me at my best and my worst — sleepy face, frustrated face, “I hate everyone” mood, “I’m done with college” drama — and somehow you still stick around.😂
You’ve handled my endless rants, my laziness, my overthinking, and my random deep talks at 1 a.m. like a pro.
from those long lab hours where we had no clue what we were doing, to the random hostel talks that started with “let’s study” and ended with us laughing over nonsense.
You’ve been there in every mood...the sad, the fun, the stressed...and somehow you always made things feel lighter.
Now when I scroll through old pictures or hear a song we used to play, it all just hits differently....
I miss the noise, the mess, the last-minute practical rush, your random taunts, and even those tiny argument that lasted 10 minutes....not 10 minutes I think 5 minutes...
At that time, we never realized how special it all was. But now, sitting at home, I get it. Those were the days.
You’re not just my roommate or practical partner, Kajal.
You’re that one person who became home away from home...my comfort person, my daily dose of laughter, my peace in all the college chaos.
So yeah, maybe we’ve moved on to different routines now, but the memories we made?
They’ll always stay...loud, funny, emotional, and full of warmth.
I’m just really glad I met you.
And if I could go back and relive those college days again, I’d do it...only if it meant having you around, exactly like before. ❤
With love....
