Sometimes you can feel extremely lonely and out of place when you're in the best possible place. To the contrary, sometimes the most lousiest place can feel like heaven on earth. And what if you have the best company and you're at the best place? That is a deadly combination. Well, a plan that all of us almost gave up on, surprisingly worked out and turned out to be one of the most craziest trips. A trip to the Gorgeous New York City. And these three crackheads who made it all the more fun.
I'm going to say the nicest things and a few more nice things today.. I know these three will read it with so much interest, for obvious reasons. And for all those who don't know them, here's introducing you to three extremely wacky people.
Read on..
Niharika aka Nihar
My roomie for a good 9 months now. So it goes unsaid that she knows me inside out . She knows the annoying me, the mean me, the adorable me and the crazy me. And i know the crazy her who'll definitely deny and dismiss the mere existence of the 'adorable me'. If that made any sense.
Well, here she sits next to me, imitating Chandler from "Friends", making it absolutely impossible for me to write anything, not having the slightest clue that i'm writing about her. She is also simultaneously jumping on my bed and complaining about some of her friend who takes too many selfies and is cribbing about her hair being messed up. To add to all of it, she is humming my fav song in the most awful way and yelling at me for playing it so often and getting it stuck in her head. She is one such person who can crib about anything. Its no surprise if one day she ends up cribbing about not having anything to crib.
This Queen of Generosity can go to any extremes to help someone, like other's needs always come before her's. I don't know it's possible for someone to be so selfless. And no matter how often she says she doesn't care, i know she does. No matter how tom boyish she is on the outside, she is no different from the most girlie girl.
One of the loveliest persons I've met. Genuine and adorable. I can just pour my heart out in front of her and know it for sure that i'll never be judged. We can go on for hours about the most random things. 'Cause she talks as much as I do. And this is something that i read somewhere, "Friendship is talking utter nonsense and having that nonsense respected". This line pretty much sums up the bond we share. There have been several days and nights when we kept talking and lost track of time.
After going to NY last year, we decided to go again and this time not just for coffee. It was wonderful. I don't think she knows how much i love her and I don't think i know why. She is someone i'll treasure for life. 'Cause i know for a matter of fact that irrespective of the time that passes without us talking, a fine day when we do, nothing's going to change. We'll still talk about the most random things for hours. She is family away from family.
I heart you, Nihar <3
Suhas aka Shushu
An acquaintance, turned friend, turned shushu. From the cutest kid-like smile to the typical Kannada "Ayyo", that he says before and after every alternate sentence, everything about him is cute. And like every other guy, he doesn't like being called "cute", which is why i overdo it.
Probably one of the effortlessly funny people I've known, with a very rare kind of sense of humor. I haven't really seen the angry/sad Suhas, so i have no clue what he is like during that phase. According to where my imagination takes me, I think he'd still be smiling and saying "Ushuu" (which is supposedly used instead of 'Oh my God"), not to forget the Kannada accent.
I've never said this to him before, but I admire the person that he is. He falls under the "nice" guy category. Like the combination of the letters n-i-c-e is made for him. Makes sure he doesn't hurt or offend anybody intentionally. And makes sure other's don't offend you in anyway. How? Well, he laughs out loud at the joke on you and tells you that he dint understand the joke. Yeah, that's him.
Naughty, witty, compassionate, helpful and a few other positive flattering adjectives that I can't think of right now, define this Bangalore guy. One can only imagine the immensity of the liking he has for his city, 'cause guess what, he got it added to his name. I hope his wife doesn't have her city's name added to her name already, or she'll be "Her name" "Bangalore" "Her city's name". I know that's not funny. But then i had this uncontrollable urge to mention this here, despite the fact that I might be dead meat once he reads this.
Whatever! I love you, shushu! And i'm going to miss our selfie routines. "Smile-Click-Stare-Click"
Kabeer aka Kabeera
The most unexpected friend. After completely ignoring each other initially and not really acknowledging the fact that we actually get along, here we are today, sharing a very peculiar bond. A "Saas-Bahu" bond, which we both decided on, keeping in mind our shudh-Hindi-sometimes-Urdu conversations. We keep talking effortlessly and endlessly unless and until acted upon by the famous word "Aur bata". That is when we know, we've spoken too much and had too much of each other and that we should stop for a while.
He is one of the most handsome guys alive, is what he thinks, which need not necessarily be true. Well, this misconception leads him to believe that he is an 8.5 on 10. And I'd say he is probably a 9 on 10. The grace 0.5 ONLY 'cause he dint give himself a 10, which I sure as hell thought he would do.
Our initial bonding was after we found our mutual liking (turned obsession) for a Bollywood song, which came as a shocker to me 'cause i thought he was more of the Honey Singh kind. Anyway, it dint take really long for us to get to know each other after that. Maybe our frequencies or modulations or whatever it is that he calls it, matched!
From his self-obsession, to his stupid jokes, to that annoying frown that creeps into his forehead even before the smile starts to fade, to the i-know-everything attitude, it doesn't take long to get used to all of it. 'Cause he is the perfect combination of entertainment and fun. Best company one could ever be in. A mobile television. Imitates every possible accent, cracks lame yet funny jokes. You won't realize when his target shifts from the person you're laughing at to you, and now you're the new laughing stock. That's how spontaneous and unpredictable he is.
If any day i screw up awfully, I'll owe it all to his suggestions that i very willingly obeyed. And I know that no matter what, I won't regret.
Thank for being there, Kabeera! Love you.
Having them around, makes my life what it is, here in US. Their presence is precious and their absence might kill. I owe those three days in New York City and all the fun associated with the trip, to these three fools.
Love you, guys!
P.S. Now worship me (:
