I got a call from him yesterday
at around 9.00 pm. Seeing the anonymous
number I never expected it to be him. Usually I am a guy, who only gets a call
when one of my friends will be in need of something. It might be because I have always been the
same way and never thought of changing myself. He talked to me a lot, about his
new organization, his new bike and about going to his native land during the
Onam vacation. Though I was happy and surprised, my eyebrows were still raised,
expecting a question of help. But he went on and on and ended altruistically. I
felt sorry for not saving his number in my phone-book before. I never believed
in maintaining relationships with friends. But that call made me realize
something inexplicably new.
Sometimes it just takes the most
trivial thing in this world, like a phone call to move somebody. It’s always good to know that there are still
some selfless people around and somebody in some unknown corner of this world
still likes you...
