Nikhil.... Amongst my first few pals

It all started during our tender kinder garden days... The fond memories of mine lasting more than a lifetime... There he was... a silent boy... sitting in the class... and innocence which made his trademark... as time passed by, we ended up entwined by my fortune as friends... time passed by... from the first grade... he was a good friend... used to give me company... shared a few jokes... showed some enthusiasm for new world... time passed by... it was the fourth grade... he came to my home... and there i was just waking up and wondering if it's dream or reality... thats when we got too close to each other... time passed by... it was in sixth grade i think... that's when i admired his "intellect" character when the teacher appreciated his answer in the class... i could never forget that moment when i gasped with amazement.... he was good in everything that he did.... time passed by... he went on doing many things and achieving great heights.... time passed by... i had suffered from typhoid... i lost track of time and all the classes were running off... had he not come outta the blue to my rescue, god knows what i would have done... but as always... he was there to help me during tight spots... he was indeed a person more generous than any i met... time passed by... he went on achieving many in IIT and reached to IIM... time passed by... But fate has it's own taste of irony... when all good times reach to greatness... the lights crash... and right before our very own eyes... he is gone...

He is gone... He has left this world...

But he will never be forgotten... He will always live in our hearts... As a very good friend who gave us a nice smile...
