Another Frame...

It's another tequila sunrise
Starin' slowly 'cross the sky,
said goodbye…

I do not listen to the song.

Have not listened to the song for the last eight years…..

And today Raghav dropped down to 186, and was fiddling around with my iPod.

And got to this song among about 15 other Eagles songs.

And took the earphones off.

And exclaimed, “You remember Vicky”?

I remember Vikramjit Choudhury.

My next-to-next door neighbor during the unsure, jittery, wide-eyed first few days at RV.

The kid.

The kid who listened to that song 24 hours a day.

The kid who IS, to us, that song.

The kid who died.

We cried, I remember, in the Woodlands hospital, the last time we saw him.

We still cannot listen to the song.
