Happy Married life Achu!

It all started on my first day in K.V. CRPF, Pallipuram,- Class- III-B (Grade-3 that is), Raichel ma’am allotted me the seat near this girl with little pigtails- Ashwini. During the lunch break she gave me a mango-bite which I later learned was a bribe to let her have the side seat in the bench. I wasn’t really happy about giving the side-seat away, but I let her have it. Yes, who knows, maybe she has more mango-bites at home. ;)

Little did we realize that the mango-bite and the side –seat of the second row in grade three would keep us bonded forever. It’s been sixteen years since then, we grew up from the girls with pig tails to college graduates with salon –hair cuts, moved to different cities, majored in different subjects, made new friends- but the one thing that hasn’t changed is the fact that when we pick up each other’s call, we connect like the old times. There are no – ‘how-are-you’-s or ‘fine’s, just non-stop chitter-chatter about each others’ lives and everything under the sun.

We knew even when in school, that we didn’t have to hang out together like Siamese twins to be best friends.

We knew we’d be there for each other regardless of whether we flunked or topped classes.

But I’ve done heaps of stupid things out of my possessiveness. Passing notes to Aparna and Neeraja, asking them to stay away from MY best friend to things I don’t even want to disclose here, until you told me the most sensible and mature words that could be said by a 13 year old – ‘Your place in someone’s life remains intact, if ever they've given you that place, no matter how many people come into their life afterwards. There are no replacements for people close to you’. 

Girl, you are AH-MAZING. Don't let anyone or for that matter, yourself, convince you otherwise.

In a few hours from now, you’ll be wife to the love of your life and a few time zones away I’ll send  a sincere prayer that you have the most amazing life that you deserve.
Not being able to see you all dressed up and blushing as a bride, sucks! -_-Good luck, Achu. I love you. I don’t have to tell you how much.

                                            

Happy Happy Married life!

 *Hugs*

See you soon Mrs. Nair. ;) :-*

P.S: Okay , but even he's also not allowed to call you his best friend.
