Friendship
Radha : Aai, Come here, let me tie you a friendship band.
Me: Oh Wow! Did you make this yourself? It’s wonderful. Come on, tie it.
Radha: Did you like it? I have made such decorative bands for each and every friend of mine.
Me: That’s good. Ouch! Tie it a little loose Radha, it’s too tight for me.
Radha: Aai, the tighter you tie, deeper is your friendship and it will never die, so we all say.
Me: Agreed. But don’t tie it so tight that it leaves marks upon the hands. Friendship should not suffocate you. It should allow you to breathe freely. Also, friendship isn’t proven when you are too close all the time.
Radha: What do you mean?
Me: Let me explain. Remember, you and Baba prepared sweet custard the other day? What was the measure of sugar given in the recipe?
Radha: Oh yes, I remember. The measure given was only half a cup but we put one full cup since we wanted it to be a little extra sweet.
Me: And did it turn out good?
Radha: Not really. It became a little too thick and not so edible, and then we lost all the appetite. We shouldn’t have put so much sugar in it.
Me : There you go. When you get the measures wrong, the recipe will obviously go wrong.
Radha: So is there a recipe for Friendship too?
Me: Well, there isn’t a hard and fast recipe such. But a little enjoyment + lot of fun + helping each other + a few quarrels + and the most important ingredient of the Friendship recipe would be trust. If there is trust, every friendship will grow and blossom.
Radha: Okay. I shall remember that.
Me: Good. Where’s Neel by the way? Doesn’t he want a friendship band from you?
Radha: (making a face) Of course not! He says it’s so girly. He is so stupid!
Me: Come on Radha, what did I just tell you? Everybody needs his own space. Respect his feelings. If he doesn’t want it, then it’s fine.
Radha : He is just acting smart in front of my girlfriends, OK Aai? You will see, he will come in the afternoon begging me to tie him a band! And I have already made a beautiful band for him.
Me: That’s wonderful! And who gets the most beautiful band by the way?
Radha: Who else than you Aai? You are my best friend, aren’t you? Why are you smiling?
Me: It’s nothing. I was just thinking how lucky I am to have a best friend like you. Happy friendship day!
