“I moved to Kadapa for work leaving behind my parents and sister at my hometown in UP. I have been here for the past 8 years but I love visiting my family in UP at every chance I get. I usually spend all my holidays with my family with work getting hectic, I am unable to frequent like I wish to. When they realized that I was missing them too much, they started visiting me whenever they could. This year I can’t go home for Diwali because I want to save my leaves for my sister’s marriage, so this time, my family is coming to visit me. They will be here for two days, so we are planning to go out for lunch and then celebrate Diwali in the evening. I am already on a look-out for a gift for my sister and I am excited about the homemade sweets which they would be bringing along. I am not even upset about not being able to go to my hometown because whenever I am with them, any place feels like home.”
