"The Un-Intentional Friendship"

Somewhere in a place unknown to you...away from friends..family n other loved ones..A place where you hace come determined not to make any "close" friends..it so happens that you find a person so completely AWESOME that u fall into a relation I now choose to call "The Unintentional Friendship".
           It all began when a girl met this guy at NIFT Bbsr on the 26th of July 2010. They belong to the same batch (MFM 2010-12). The introduction was through a mutual friend (Richa Shah) and the girl's first reaction was..."meri chahe kissi se dosti ho jaaye...iske saath to ..no ways"..and she guessed he felt the same..
  The same two people...sitting beside each other in the bus on the way to all places we went during our Orientation..the result...the girl was like "Baap re..Kya pakau ladka hai..koi bhi kissi ladki ko apni paanch pushte kaise bata skta hai.."..n then that GK test...she was proved so dumb..bande ne socha hoga..."Kya bewkoof ladki hai..pata nai NIFT me kaise admission mil gaya". The silence during half of the journey did nothing to help.
   Days passed....One day in the mess..dinner time...the girl notices that the guy is very tensed and frustated...she tries to find out from him..does not get a response. Later she learns that he was going through a rough patch of his life. She leaves it there. The next day..on the way to the city, the guy boards the bus with a plaster on his hand..n obviously in pain..both physical and mental. No questions asked..nothing was said..the guy doesnt even try to hide and the girl simply nods her head because she knew.
Khair...she helps him with his food..n he accepts with reluctance. There began the "pratha" of eating in the same plate.
Both of them dont know when they became good friends that the guy even called her at night on the 14th of August...n they both ended up having a sleepless night..
Regular classes...waiting for each other for food..times spent at the "pahad", the maggi station..and at lotus..sitting beside each other..either in class or in the bus..!! all this had soon become a part of regular life for both..
Their friendship grew...n with it increased (very obviously) habits, fights, misunderstandings and their bond.
Both egoists..with tempers so destructive that even I wonder...how two such people could actually even have a conversation without ending up at their wits end..
N yet there is this something special that both mean a lot to each other..there is an unconditional bond..
They fight..n both cant see the other upset...I remember the time when the guy cried..in front of the girl...n both of them felt simply pathetic..
They know each others strengths, weaknesses, likes and dislikes..they have long arguments about small things...n debate upon everything possible. They know what can irritate the other..what can make him or her happy...
The girl will do anything for the guy...n the guy cares equally as much..
They are now friends...so strong..that It would take a lot from a third person to shake the roots..people have tried by many ways...but have failed..all that happened was..for a short while..there were problems which vanished...leaving behind a bond even stronger.
The girl insists on things which at times pisses him off..coz she's still a kid at heart..very possessive and a bit immature...he on the other hand..is a strong socializer, n a person with strong cognitive ability..
N yet..they know how to pacify the other...one glance is enough to judge the mood of the other..
Simply, the girl enjoys doing things for him...not because she loves him..(a mistake cannot be repeated twice)..but she cares so because..
  • He's always been there when she needed him..
  • He understands and allows her to share her deepest thoughts with him.
  • Inspite of all talks, he still sits next to her..
  • He does things which he otherwise wouldnt have...only because she insists..
  • His words..21st march 2011.."I will live my dream even if u achieve it"
  • She found a great friend..a mentor..n a strong critic in him..
  • He's the only one who knows what she actually is..
  • He supports her whenever he can...n even if he cant..
  • He cares, scolds, teases..at the end of the day...its all for her..
  • He calls her "his Chotta sa Ghantan..Bachcha "
  • He's open, frank n non demanding..
  • He's accepted her friendship...as she is..
  • for reasons...that cannot be explained through words..
The girl..(Yes thats ME!!) Pragya Jain, says THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING...Tarunendra Pratap Singh..
