His name is Shaiju Mathew
He is a tutor for a small ITC
He love playing football
He has a benevolent heart
He is always supportive
Who is he? – He is my best pal.
He has been my friend for so long that I don’t even remember when we first met. He claims with his ever so little working brain that it was during my initial days at the kinder garden when we first met!!. What I know for sure is that he is dated back to my very first sector of memory lane.
Poor thing used to suffer a lot when I was kid and I was at my peak best of trying to karate lessons on him J I still get beaten up as a revenge for the same when ever we meet… guess he is blackmailing a bit too much. Or may be he is taking advantage of the situation that he weighs much more than me… even when he is shorter than me by a good couple of inches J
I still remember those days when we saw the first James bond movies and that thrill took us to try out some stunts. Poor thing ended up with a broken hand or something where I ended up having a rather disfigured nose! Such was the impact… They say I have “babes” nose… not the babe you might think, its babe the pig J
Its been about 20 years of friendship and we had seen each other struggling, falling down, fighting, recovering …almost all the phases of life I must say. I am guilty of not being around when he was in a mess as I work in a different place. But when ever I was home he was always there to help me out in my issues (well…mostly…)
But we don’t keep an account of who did what and when… And yes there were times when we fought each other… but the separation didn’t last more than a day J
When I look around me in this big city standing in the middle of a crowd, looking for a helping hand… I realize how blessed I am to have a good friend like him…
