W is a friend… tiny and sweet [spoiler alert: he’s not a cat].
Ours is an unusual friendship, unusual in terms of “We-can’t-be-friends, no-Way” kind but then again, friends We became.
W is tiny [he doesn’t think so] and sWeet [I don’t think so] but We’ve fought our odds and remained friends.
A friend told me first and then to him later that he reminded her of a character out of The Addam’s family [I couldn’t have agreed more yet I don’t remember the character in reference]. But come to think of it, he’s more of a “Corpse Bride” character :nods:
Yep, that’s him.. [image source]
He speaks fast and so half the time When I’m listening to him I’m nodding into oblivion. Because honestly I can’t make head or tail of What’s speeding out of his vocal chords. It’s like the rat-tat-tat coming out of AK-47 [maybe AK 47 doesn’t sound this way, but Who cares!] Only When he has that questioning look “Aren’t you supposed to be ansWering me?” do I realise I have missed out…. AGAIN.
We have a lot in common. He is absolutely lazy and to be honest that Was the first thing I liked about him. So as We started sharing our feats of laziness, we moved on to discover our passion for teaching
and at times calling in sick at Work. We started texting each other movie recommendations and travel destinations and latest trendy trends and …………. well almost everything under the sun, until our thumbs demanded we gave them some rest.
It was then. Now, we’re worlds apart [his world is the same, mine’s cut off from the world itself]. The only way we we can manage to be in touch is through emails, which he often does and I often DON’T 😦
AND SO…
To W Who Writes… Thank you for Writing!
And to all your unansWered emails, “my gift is my post and this one’s for you”
Whether or not I reply, just knoW that I do read those mails. At times, I even click on the *reply* button and leave the page Without clicking *send* and just like that the moments pass.
Whether or not I Write back, just knoW that had it not been for you I’d have never looked back. You belong to a past [or a time] I’d consider “never happened” but because you’re in it, I Will forever acknoWledge that “that” time happened.
Whether or not I am in touch With you, just knoW that you have made my life a tad bit better – some day I’ll explain hoW, I promise 🙂
… and a song that just speaks my mind…
