I am not sure whether I have mentioned this before or not, but do you know how ecstatic you feel when you and your bestie share the same birth month. But how would you feel that you are not even days apart but hours apart. Yup, that is our case. In this relationship I am the elder one and she is the younger, and do you have any any idea what's the time gap 33 HOURS to be precise. But to be honest, she is the one who takes care of me since I behave like a baby. She is the mature one in this and she has the upper hand and I am not complaining about it at all.
It was November 2013 when our visits to Dee started and we both were exited about our birthdays, me well a little less. There is a story which is for some other time. So yeah the visits were on schedule and weeks passed on spur and my birthday arrived. It was the day when we were suppose to visit Dee as well. So since it was my birthday, Shailaja decided that she will be my chauffeur since it's my birthday and I deserve to be pampered. She picked me up from my place and we were heading to Dee's place. The street where she had pass with baby ( that's the name of the car she owes) was way narrow. The incident is still in my mind, there were 3 men walking I would rather say cat walking on that street and she was honking and they were being deaf at the moment I suppose. What happened next was purely an accident and not intention. The front side of baby got gently hit the person's back side. And he was yelling on us like a crazy man. Obviously who would not. We might have created a scene if the roles were reversed. She usually loathes the street since it is narrow. But she would take that route no matter what so that we can reach to Dee easily and sh came drop me back home.
Back to my birthday. We visited Dee and I saw the scale which said I put on 1 KG. Yeah I know no whining or fussing since it is just 1 KG. Well my friends try to give this reaction to someone you know who has been trying to loose some extra pounds since a long time.
Since it was my birthday Dee didn't said anything, well she does not to be honest. Cause she knows what the other one is going through so she acts like a pillar instead rather than scolding. So in the end, we took the following weeks schedule from Dee and were on our way to home.
On the way home she told me she wanted to visit my home at midnight with a cake just cause she felt like doing so. But she did controlled herself in that case cause we were still in the phase of getting to know each other. I told her then that I never had a midnight cake and never had a chance to cut a cake from past 6 years due to some issues. And man her reaction was like "Are you crazy, you have got to be kidding me, Are you even for real" and many more. What she said that from next year I'll make sure that you get a midnight cake and you cut all the cakes of the missing years.
My home arrived, we parted ways and wished each other a wonderful day.
On that day I was suppose to meet 2 library friends of mine. And we did a lunch together at Dominos and went out for a movie that is how the day went. But what was most unexpected was that there was a cake waiting for me when I reached home in the evening. It was not from Shailaja but from my Library pals who decided to give me some little surprise. And boy I was baffled at that time. I am in no more touch with them but they are being missed ALWAYS.So my birthday did ended on a good note but I was more excited for Shailaja's birthday. I knew she would be having a mid night cake celebration and everything. So I just dropped a text and went to bed.
So here one more similarity happened that her way went almost like mine just few differences but who cares. It was a good start when we had each others company emotionally during that time.
