HAPPY BIRTHDAY Triplet#3 !!!! WE LOVE YOU !!!

Pleasant surprises are good, but overwhelmingly pleasant surprises can prove detrimental to one's emotional health.

I do not usually celebrate birthdays, so it's not that I expect anything special unless a friend plans something. But yesterday I did. It was weird but I did expect something. As the tradition of the forum goes, we've bday threads, so I was expecting Ishu and Anu to open a thread with a simple bday wish just to prove that they remembered. Since quite some time, I had hardly been visiting the forum. But yesterday morning, I came and scrolled down the initial pages and found nothing relevant. I told myself I was being crazy. I had already told Anu and Ishu that I do not celebrate bdays, so it is common sense that they didn't keep a note of it. Besides, I know that Anu is extremely busy with her studies and Ishu rarely comes to the forum, so it's understandable.

By evening, I had totally forgotten about it and I saw the two online. Meaning, we can now have our usual conversation after a long time, but I found them acting sooo weird. I'm the usual 'Ms. Gayab' but last night they stole the title! I'd talk non-stop and they'd reply with their usual single expression of 'roflrofl.' And to top it up, they took turns in 'brb.' Now what the hell, I don't get my bday wish and this is what I get in return?

Anyway, after a session of their 'absent presence,' Ishu informs me of a SG bashing thread (her usual strategy - when she needs to go to bed, she'll direct me to such threads in order to defend our favourite couple on her behalf). I was more angry this time considering that it is going to be the last week of the show and people still act weird. In that furious state of mind, I ask her for the link and land on this thread. I seriously failed to comprehend what lied on screen before my eyes (tubelight I know!). The immediate thought was "What the hell, they're bashing SG on my bday thread? I mean seriously couldn't they find a better platform?!!" My thoughts shifted, "Wait this means I do have a bday thread." In that frenzied moment, I literally tasted tears of happiness. Having tears and laughing simultaneously is truly crazy if we think about it.

Looking back in retrospect, it never even crossed my mind that I'd meet two of my most beautiful friends on this forum. I seriously don't believe in 'online' friendship - evidence, I don't have a facebook account. But my belief transformed after I met these two crazy but amazingly beautiful girls. Now I say, you never know where you meet your best of friends. Personally, I'm very anti-social so naturally I'll have very few friends. But I've never complained, because God blesses me with the pearls of friends. One can have a lot of friends, but once you sit down to count your true friends, you'll be surprised to see the small number.

Ishu once asked me if I am an SG or MS fan, I picked SG in no time. But SG is the second best thing MJHT has given me. Ishu and Anu together are a more lasting, tangible and real gift that I have received due to the show. A gift that was neither intended nor designed by the CVs (I'm glad it wasn't considering how skillful CVs can act at times).

Now as for the beautiful design of the thread, if beauty decided to take a physical form, this would be one of its forms. Wow I'm not Sanaya, but I still get to be treated like her. Ishu has actually made me a VM similar to the one she made for Sanaya. And Anu if I'm not mistaken, you've spend more time on this thread than you did on creating your bday message for Sanaya. This tells me to be a 'celebrity,' all you need to have is special friends who can make you feel your significance.

Bachi and Little Sister, I want to hug you 🤗 for every second you've spent putting up this beautiful thread, simply because this is happiness expanded to its full width.

So glad to have you both...
