I want to say about one of the special friends, not only my friend but also my mother’s parents’ childhood friend, mom’s in particular. There’s a little story behind that, that my grandmother was used to stretch the clothes where she became the friend of some of the people staying near to the house. One of the uncle who used to stay beside my house became one of the close close friend of my grandmother and from there the friendship starts. They used to send the food with steak hook and we used to send the food items on the occasions and festivals to their houses. It was a great friendship between them. They used to spend time with each other and by that we got connected and we became friends. We used to sit together, chat together, we used to spend time. She is very caring and lovable and she encourages me to do everything and she supports me, tuti and teaches me what is right, what is wrong and I’m fortunate to have such kind of friend. We used to stay much of the time and we used to go in the same school and this is the special friend which I can’t never forget and I think in the future the friendship should be like this in my further generations also.

I want to talk about one of the special friends, not only my friend but also my mother's childhood friend, particularly my mom's. There's a little story behind that: my grandmother used to stretch the clothes, and she became friends with some of the people living near the house. One of the uncles who lived beside my house became a close friend of my grandmother, and from there, the friendship started. They used to send food with a steak hook, and we would send food items on occasions and festivals to their houses. It was a great friendship between them. They spent time together, and through that, we got connected and became friends. We would sit together, chat together, and spend time together. She is very caring and lovable, and she encourages me to do everything. She supports me, teaches me what is right and what is wrong, and I'm fortunate to have such a friend. We spent a lot of time together, and we went to the same school. This is a special friend I can never forget, and I hope that in the future, friendships like this will continue in my future generations as well.
