Quite unexpectedly, I woke up this morning to a message from Gagan that they were in Atlanta. Eshan is starting an internship in midtown and they were here to settle him down. Of course, that meant we needed to get together that evening.

I got to know Gagan in Oct 1995 when he finally joined the start up company after threatening to do so for quite some time! The four of us – Bharti, Sharmila and we two – had gotten very close to each other with all those hours of coding together and then going out for lunch or dinner together.

If I remember correctly, they got married one year after we got married. They had their first child exactly one year after we did. And of course, they had their second child also one year after we had ours!
