The summer of Delhi.
The fan stops working
That night.
Mosquitoes invade.
Irritated and sweaty.
You sleeplessly roll around.
After an hour-
The electricity is back,
The slow soothe of rotating
Fan makes you realize about
The companion you were
Really missing.
Until his absence was
Felt, you didn't know the
Importance of his existence.
The next day, you clean
Him up with a cloth.
Somewhere you knew,
Gratitude is one of the best
Way of acknowledging
A friendship.
