The alarm rang, oh it’s 6!

Other side the phone rang (the usual iPhone ringtone).

Me – Hey! Buddy wake up. It’s six, we gotta chant.

He – hmm.. (murmuring in sleep)

Me – Wake up! Buddy start your day otherwise you’ll be late.

He – I see no light outside it’s midnight, let me sleep girl!

Me – Hey! You chucklehead, I know I am crazy, doesn’t make a sense that I am mental. Better you wake up or I’ll come at your place and kick your ass! Dumbo! Wake up we’ll chant together.

He – You love me a lot! Right?

Me – I do!

He – I know!

( I could feel his smile )

Me – Maybe from one infinity to another infinity. Maybe! ( Giggiling ) okay now enough! Wake up and chant.

Dear Jay,

Little did I know this was the last conversation I had with you, for my lifetime. It’s been a long time we’d known each other, though we were at distant places. Stupid boy, I have known you for years like ages. I guess this would be my last letter for you to know. I have been diagnosed with cancer at the third stage, like ” Surprise honey I am home.” Well till now I can not figure it out. How? I was suffering from asthma as per doctors. This was not just done, there was something more better I could ever deal with doctors further with the reports said, ” Throat cancer has also beenlinked to other types of cancers. In fact, some people diagnosed withthroat cancer are diagnosed with esophageal, lung, or bladder cancerat the same time.” I am diagnosed with lung and throat cancer. What next I am shifted to the hospital. Mom and Dad are busy claiming the medical insurance, we are running short of money, I am not able to speak. How could I just inform you, I am almost dying. But my dear best friend, yes! You are love. In these years you have been a home for me. There is no single day I argue with you, end up my friendship and still ask you to stay. Maybe this is love! Well I am not writing it to make you cry. No really not! But still if you cry it’s your fault. To be true, I want to spend my whole life with you. Wandering at all places and escaping into you.
