"life keeps on moving, time keeps on flying and we never realize it until we get a time to look behind on what we had and we didn't appreciate was our golden moments. When running away from problems were easy. When we had each others shoulders. When we used to discover abandoned places and named them ours like they were build for us only. And thought no one can break us apart."

I Miss You....

None of us were born in a normal family. I met them at the age of 3, without knowing that we were going to become each others strength and weakness, we started playing in the main park which connected our houses. We all had the smile no one could imitate, laugh on the ticklish feeling of the swing when it gets higher. It goes on till sunset when our nannies would come and drag us home. We would try to resist until the end knowing no one will be their in our homes to play with us.

We would pray for the time to run fast so that we could play with each other again and forget about all the pain. They would make me feel like a princess who have ran away from castle in search of freedom. after all growing in rich family wasn't easy, and we all knew that. Because none of us had caring mother who would feed and changed our clothes neither we experienced the love of father as they never had time for us.

Even our nannies wouldn't have a time to play with us or read us a bedtime story. People would envy the architecture of our houses without knowing they felt haunted from inside. The secret behind the big walls were only between us, as we acted along all the compliments we get.  

And within a blink of time we were in high school ....

the bond grew stronger and stronger as we couldn't stay away from each other for even a moment. we would run away from school in search for an new place to hide from all the problems and responsibility, cause we couldn't fit in the perfect personality society has fixed for every student with a demanding criteria, and none of us were ready to pass even one. 

 We all had different dreams, but since we were not allowed we focused more on enjoying each others presence. we were like family. we knew each other past, present and also can predict future of each other. it was a usual day we went to the abandoned play ground at the back of the usual cafe we used to visit after school. But this time when we reach the place we saw something unusual.

an old man, wearing a traditional clothes, cleaning the corner of the ground. we stopped laughing on the sight, and thought of retrieving when we heard a grasp which made us turn. he was staring right into our side: "you must be really close." on hearing this we made a 'huh' face. "I am having a difficulty picking this up can you young guys help." We nodded and walk towards in order to help.

he examined us peacefully smiling, as we lift the boxes and kept them under the shed as his wish. we clean our hands with each others clothes. which made him smile  and he unexpectedly asked us to stay for tea as his house was nearby. I signaled boys not to agree and let's go, but as you know boys, they just look at each other ignoring my presence and went "YESSS, WEE WOOULD LOOVE TOO" and I slammed my face in annoyance.

We sat there talking to each other through eyes sipping tea. Awkward silence was broken by the man as he wanted us to be more comfortable, or atleast act. "how long have you been friends." "before even we were able to count till 100", time really went flying more faster than light. we smiled genuinely, until that man said something which caught me off guard....

"friendship must never be buried under any misunderstanding." his tone felt like he knew something we don't. I started feeling indefinably uncomfortable. I guess my faced showed too much as both of them stood up excusing the man. "hey! you okay?" I nodded even though the words were hitting my head so hard that I couldn't focus on my facial expression. "forget about him, we are much stronger than that." I chuckle, still not sure.

time passed by and we forgot about his words as our friendship grew and we lived a happier time enjoying each other company. we did everything together. people were literally jealous as we never broke up unlike normal friends. we smiled, laughed and cried together unaware of the fact that this strong bond can also be broken on a SIMPLE MISUNDERSTANDING.....
