Two days later. The time is 11:59pm. In a minute it's my 25th birthday. I am sure Kalindi will be one among my 12 am wishers. When the clock strikes twelve I have three pop up notifications in my phone. The first two are cliché 'Happy Birthday' by Kamal and Dev. The third is from Kalindi. It is a forwarded message. I read, 'You are such a beautiful critic Nirav. The depth you saw in my story, the words you used, the way you expressed, I'm impressed and jealous. Brother, don't waste your talent just writing articles and reviews. Develop a good story and write something interesting with your god given potential. You'll succeed for sure. With love, Ravinder Singh'.
Oh my god, what is this? Then comes Kalindi's call.
"I forwaded the 'I too had a love story' article you wrote on your blog to Ravinder Singh. And two months before I got this reply. I was waiting for this day to give it to you as a birthday present," says Kalindi.
"The best birthday present in my 25 years. Thank you very much," I reply.
"So start writing bro,"I can taste the thrill in Kalindi's voice
With a light blush I reply, "Will think about it," eventhough I am sure I'm not gonna write anything. Writing a story, it's not me.
