Dearest Jallu,

           It is very difficult for me to write since I am missing so many of my very good friends. You are the person who always likes to argue (contradict) and that is what I always liked. It was fun and very satisfying to argue with you since you never argued with points you did not like. You are the person who speaks the truth and everybody can rely on. Also you can remember me as the person who always spoke in a very loud voice, always needed company to go anywhere and made you walk slowly. I will always remember you by your 5 minutes phone-calls which were never less than 1 hr. Your speed (in) eating.

You are someone who always taught me a thing or 2 eventhough I seldom applied it.

It was very difficult for me to say Goodbye to you this evening, knowing that I might not meet you in person. I hope we can keep in touch atleast by mail since I do not want to loose a good friend like you.

I have found you a very unique person but sometimes foolish (no milk for 6 months, fasting on Sundays, remaining dumb), whatever your reasons.

I want to write so many more things we shared, enjoyed together but this book will prove inadequate.

I have learnt many things of computers from you, which I could not have learnt, like how to make computers non-operational (just joking).

I just wish we could stay together forever so that I could learn many things and implement them.

You may not believe it but I hold very great respects for you. I wish someday be someone like you.

I have always seen jolly and laughing no matter what the circumstances. Please, try to keep that throughout your life. Please be the same person (that) you are. But a bit more calmer, negotiable and faster in eating.

Remembering from jolly, I have seen you enjoy and treasure every moment of you life.

The only thing I could not understand is how you could play minesweeper for hours at end, sometimes upto 5am.

Also I could never figure what you liked in the song "We like to party" and how you could sing that fast.

You just entered having you lunch and dinner at 1am in the night, wanting this book back as fast as possible and sitting on my nerves.

Please keep the same smiling face and never let it down. Also, please, try to increase your body-weight. Also, I hope you remember me by the no. of times I repeated myself, word by word, sequences by sequences.

I dont know how to end this which I never want to do but have to. I just hope, once again, that we keep in touch.

Bye for now,
(signature of Ibrahim)

Best of Luck
in your life.
