Note- Well, i have my college entrances coming up in the month of May,and that's the reason i have not been able to keep up with the updates. My Buddies please *bear with me* :( I promise i will be more frequent after mid-may.
So to continue with my story, as i mentioned before,me and Akshat had become kind off regular with the badminton thing, and our friendship was blooming,being of the same age we could actually talk off a lot of things starting from the taste of music to our curriculum we actually had lot to talk about.
January 2007,(that's the period am talking about) just passed and i would say, i found a good friend. As February began some of the soccer buddies of my Brother who lived near by, switched to Badminton because they were finding it difficult keeping up the school exams coming up and almost three hours of Soccer.So from two, i mean three(including Akshat's brother Sam) we became seven. imagine seven people playing in that mini Badminton court. Initially it was difficult for me to talk, in fact i didn't talk only, but as days passed i was better. My batch-mate 'Monisha' also joined us and so we turned to eight. It was pretty strange that suddenly from 'no company' i got six friends that to so soon , it was just February people. Then one day, while playing we all noticed Abhiviti and her sister Anuparna coming and i was preety shocked to realize that none of us actually welcomed them. They came and because of no interaction they went back on their own after some time. That was when i realized that its just not that they are a bit reclusive but maybe their nature that makes them so 'unfriendly' but whatever, forget it.
After about a week they came again, this time with their mom(aaaah, this is their worst habit as in every small matter they involve their parents,you will understand that later) and as per so called basic "MANNERS' we had to welcome them this time and include them in our group. This made us ten now. I was confused as to be happy about it or not.
March passed of without anything new happening and to add on we all were busy with our respective exams.
April started and so did our SUMMER vacations,which i cant forget for two reasons. As everyone was over with their exams we had whole day to enjoy, accompanied with scorching heat, but still we played and played. The reason i cant forget this vacation was because of the fabulous company i got and also how much i tanned myself. I Mean who plays "CRICKET" at noon that to in the hottest month of the year, but we did, this was friendship we imbibed and i was in love with it.
But we didn't know that something disheartening was coming up,that was the soccer players were in the mood of going back to the game. Was our friendship for this short period or something else was going to happen?
