Samsung Galaxy s3

It was year 2013, somewhere between March and April. It was dinner time. I am not sure if I had the dinner or not but I was eagerly waiting for my father to come home; Why? Because he went to buy his first smartphone. Our first smartphone. It was Samsung Galaxy s3, the latest smartphone of that time (even though it had only 1gb of RAM and 16gb of total storage). Finally he came home and I remember the unboxing of the phone. His friend Sandeep was also there. He taught us few things in the phone and my excitement was out of bound. Well that was the first time I felt so excited—every other smartphone purchase after that, I have never been so excited, In fact no memories are as eidetic as the first one. I remember that night, I was up till midnight and was trying to tinker with the new toy. My father was asleep and we had found a special place to put the phone on our computer table with little cotton patch beneath it, just like putting a baby gently on a crib. Yeah that’s exactly how vividly I remember it. I wish I could go back and revisit all that moment again and again. That joy I want to keep alive forever.

P.S. I still have that golden peice with me in drawer, Every time I go home finding something from my cupboard, I see that phone, I gently put it in my hand just to remember the old days and man! swear to god, I still feel those moments.
