My Friend "GOLA"

This journey had been started since we (I and Gola) stepped in on this planet. In fact, it didn’t start there because I came first and he followed almost after a year. Therefore, I am not concerned about the childhood. It actually started JAB we met.

                                         I was studying with my untidy friend in his untidy room. His name was Tinku. He was fond of two things, first was Chenu Khattri and second was Sanjog and together we were fond of making ‘BHOOMIKA’. We both were born on the same day, a great co-incidence and perhaps, this might have been the reason for strong relationship in a short span of time. Although he was preparing for medical and I was striving for engineering, yet we used to study together. So, while we were making “BHOOMIKA”, a boy with small eyes like Chinese appeared. On seeing him Tinku surprisingly threw one rupee coin at him and said to him,”Gola get one Sanjog for me”. Gola caught the spinning coin and did as instructed. Due to this habit of Tinku, people used to call him “Mr Sanjog”.

                                        Gola was the student of intermediate and Maths was his enemy and weakness .He was scared of Maths like it was a ghost but he never imagined that this Maths will give him an everlasting friend like me and this Maths will change his life entirely.

Mr Sanjog knew Gola’s weakness perfectly. “Gola I have the remedy for your weakness today” Mr Sanjog said to Gola, sitting next to me.

On listening to it Gola reacted like Mr Sanjog has asked him a Math formula.

“What do you mean Tinku I couldn’t understand”.

Mr Sanjog pointed to me and said,”He is a Doctor who can cure your weakness”.

“His name is Neer and he is a KOTA return guy. He also completed his schooling from St.Marks. He has a good hand in Mathematics and he can certainly cure your disease”.

I was shocked after listening to this description given by Mr Sanjog because nobody had ever described me in such a decent way. In fact I was filled with proud and attitude that I have a good existence. 

After about 30 minutes of Gola’s arrival, Gola shook his hand with me. It seemed to me that I was invisible to him during the conversation happening between Gola and Sanjog and I became visible to Gola when Sanjog talked about me. Well, I was still confident.

“Math appears to be a nightmare to me. It sucks, please save me.”

“Don’t fear dude come to my place I will assist you”, my confident reply.

And an Engineer transformed into a Doctor and I got my first patient
