We are Unique

I saw one of my colleague’s WhatsApp status in that my colleague was with her friend and mentioned the caption as “Always Mine-Bestie” then I just start to remember and think about you. Not even once a time I told to you that you are the best friend I got in my life. But I only remembered you. We don't have pictures together, not even one picture except the picture that we took in your mobile and the mobile which you had without permission without the knowledge of the warden.

Almost 3 years completed fully from that day still we didn't meet after our college studies not frequent phone calls rarely monthly once one call. No video calls except on your birthday and my birthday days.

When some of my colleagues shared all the things their joys and sorrows with their best friends and introduce them to others as she is my bestie or he is my bestie at that time I felt like why I am not doing the same and why I am not introducing you as my best friend to anyone. We are not the same as them. Sometimes they will ask “who is your best friend?” At that time, I will just say Her name is Anjana. I won’t share How we met?, what you are doing now? where are you now? why we both are best friends?

These all things came to my mind when I remembered our last video call conversation.

Last video call conversation

Anjana: Hey…What you will give me for my birthday?

Me: Why were you born first? If your next birthday came then you have wasted your 24 years on earth successfully. In those 24 years, you were with me for 13 years and wasted my 13 years also. For that why I should give a gift.

Anjana: Expected answer.

In between our conversations, Anjana’s roommate said Hai to me and asked me

You are her best friend and not giving gifts. Why? This is not fare.

Before me, Anjana replied to her roommate’s question as "We are not like the syntactic friends she is mad. I am another mad. Then We both become best friends”

Then that girl said “I can’t understand both of you. I will go. Bye,” and she went.

Why and how we both are best friends for that question I don't know what to answer but I know one thing clearly, we both have some instinct whenever you want to speak with me or think of calling me that time you will get my call and it happens for me also.

Still, I remember the day when I saw you in our school. I completed my 5th standard in one small school and came to that famous school in that city to study 6th standard. I was getting fear when I saw that two-floor building school which is very popular in the city. I was standing on the ground which is fully covered with sand and I am staring at the whole building from down to up.

I had my lunch bag in my right hand and my bag on my shoulder. When I saw that building that time without my conscious, I opened my mouth and again closed my mouth and turned to the side from where I heard someone’s voice “Hey..”

I saw one girl wearing the uniform same as me and she had one lunch bag on her right-hand side and one water bottle hanging on her shoulder along with her school bag. she wore specs also.

Generally, during that time I thought like the girls or boys who are wearing specs will be the toppers. they will study more, they are intelligent people, they will be obedient people, and they won't do any bad things. They are good students in school.

Then later I got to know How mistakenly I Guessed. When I saw you at that time, I didn’t feel you will be my best friend and I don’t know You are a Master in dance, a Great Artist, Good in humour, and average in studies. The girl who said hey asked my name, I said my name is Kavya then she told me I am Anjana.

I heard my brother’s voice My name is Kavya, and My father’s name is Murugesan……Introduce yourself later, first wake up. Anjana is calling…. Attend her phone call and speak.

Then I opened my eyes and got to know I was in a dream. In that dream, I again remembered our schooldays-Anjana and I spoke while sleeping and said My name is kavya.

I attend Anjana’s call and said Just now I woke up and you came in my dream. She told me I too want to speak with you. So, I called.

I won’t denote our friendship with the name of bestie. Nowadays people are getting friends and want to be with them only always on all their occasions and tagging themselves as bestie in society. In These same days, people like us also living. We won’t be always together, but whenever any one of us needs the other one that person will be there.
