The FIVES

The FIVES.

This is about my friends I had grown up & growing up.
I met these guys 13-14 years, as my dad got transferred to new place.
Since then these are my buddies.
Yes sometimes I feel the understanding & closeness what we have today does not do justice to the 14 years friendship.
The reason could be we are all different personality with different views.
We were many times called pancha pandavas.(No idea who is Dhropathi).

In 13 years we have passed different phases.
We were all students when I met the fours & I had the privilege to change the FOURS to FIVES.

During the student phase, the discussion was mostly about studies, college, girls & so on.
We started to celebrate our birthdays. We used to gift each other.
And we set the tradition to go to Dhabas on birthdays.
Its hilarious to recall that once we gifted one of friend the abdomen guard on his birthday.
We were just students those days & managed to spend only with the pocket money.

Although we earn handsome salary now, we don’t gift each other anymore on birthdays.
Is it a sign of grown ups?

FIVES have grown laughing, fighting & crying.
As we stepped in to the world of money earners, we had our own freedom.
Now the discussion, thinking all got changed.
It was more about office, colleagues, salary, opportunities & so on.
Is it a sign of grown ups?

The FIVES started growing up.
Some bought Bike & cars,
Some bought Plot, flats & houses.
Had there own love stories, failures, loss of dear ones.
Is it a sign of grown ups?

One of the FIVES, the FOURTH is getting married this april.
And SECOND & FIFTH are also in search for life partners.
The THIRD has his own battle to fight to succeed in his love life.
The FIRST will take his own time to get married.

All these,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, the sign of grown ups?

The FIVES never wanted to grow up.
They wanted to pause the age at 25.
But it never happened.

The girl (college met) FIVES used to tease had got married & has got 2 kids.
Younger sister of this girl also got married & has a kid.

The small girl who used to stumble & fall in front of us as she was learning cycle ,,,,,,,,,,,is studying in college now.

I’m sure all these things shows that FIVES are grown up or
rather the world is grown up or the above mentioned girls are grown up.
