Wondering where all this is leading to ? Seemingly related but un-related as well ? Yelllaam namma Jillu oda friendship pathidhaan ga.
This is a long pending post, but nothing (the status quo) has changed till date.
Jillu's friendship with her beloved friend "I". She is 1 1/2 years older than Jillu. But the two of them have such a enviable rapport with each other. "I" resides in my my MIL's apartment.
The friendship is such that
1) "I" calls Jillu her baby
2) "I" says she will take care of Jillu always
3) "I" scolds her own grandmom just becoz the poor grandmom asked Jillu not to suck her thumb
4) Jillu can never be taken away from I. We have to literally physically drag them away from each other that the scene will very closely resemble (sometimes even excel ) that from "Yek dhuje ke li Ye" or any such love story based movie. Imagine this, their their mom dragging their daughters away and each daughter calling the other's name as though its the end of life !. Need I say more ?
5) Jillu cries (harder in fact) if "I" cries (for whatever reason)
6) I can get away with murder I say "I" did it ! (Read that as I can make Jillu do anything if I say "I" did it !)
6) I can get away with murder I say "I" did it ! (Read that as I can make Jillu do anything if I say "I" did it !)
The friendship is such that
1. We totally avoid going to my MIL"s place when Jillu is ill, for fear of spoiling her health even more ( Point #4 above). You wont believe till you see it ! For each meal break, the same scene is repeated !
2. We totally avoid taking "I"'s name in font of Jillu lest she asks us to take her there immediately, or worse, starts crying pronto!
And what finally prompted me to complete this post after a very long time ?
A call from "I" last night ! I dont need to mention the joy and the elation from this quarter. And after the phone call, needless to say, I was left holding the baby (pun intended) and it took all my power to distract her and to stop her wailing "Naan "I" kooda pesanum " :(
Wooow !!! kannu kalangudhu ;).....sounds really nice!!!

ReplyDeleteI will be happy if their friendship continues for life, after all, life is beautiful only if we have good long lasting friends :)

May be they have a past life connection (Sorry have been reading 'Many masters, may lives- adotha effect).. I know it when you say u do not mention "I" in Jillu's presence lest she insits she be taken to see her.. Its the same this part of the world too... I hope their friendship continues..
