The new neighbour seemed weird, was not sure that we would ever communicate. Known very little, but never tried to get closer. Surprisingly! one morning bumped into each other with a great shock, & realised that we were tuition mates. Neither of us were happy. In fact, were afraid of that one would taddle to our parents.
We never spoke much, with rare and awkward greetings and smiles. Boom! Coincidentally we are batchmates at the computer class too. And the awkwardness grew, but fortunately our communication grew too and got to know a little bit.
We kids those days before smartphones enjoyed picnics, it was decided in the class that we're going to picnic. With excitement all of us were ready. Road trips are amazing with moving scenaries, good weather, & friends. As expected at the end of picnic we were not just friends but almost a kind of Family.
Accompanying each other home after the great day, we tried to know more about each other. Few days later, the numbers were exchanged. Casual wishes, texts, meetings and fun began. As days passed we began to share the secrets, & realised we and our situations are alike. Teasing, meetings, sharing, roaming, outbursting, supporting, dancing, singing, acting, playing, helping, gifting and many things brought us much closer than expected, that there were no more requests.We could demand anything to each other.
Amidst, all this. The special day *Raksha Bandhan* was a celebration of this beautiful relationship. There started a wonderful journey as siblings.
Not every sibling are born in the same womb, it's a good thing.
We are all blessed with an unbiological sibling to add an extra joy into our life...aren't we?
SuSiblings!
