Tit for Tat

We hesitate to call ourselves 'best friends'.I still wouldnt say it because I know she will read this.She has promised me she will. But as far as I know, she has little interest in reading.Why would she read this then?Well....the answer is quite simple.....she'll read this because she does not like(I hope she'll enjoy it now)reading.

31st December(new years eve) is no day to be taken as any other day especially when its also the birth date of a close(i actually mean,best)friend.But I wouldnt be myself if I do what's obvious.The terrible happened. I forgot her birthday. The day was forgotten till I called her up some two months later.This unforgivable,unforgettable mistake was easily let off by my friend.I was glad.

22nd March-Many people called me up and wished me a happy birth day.I admit I was expecting a call from my friend. I was hopeful till the very last second of the day.She didn't call.She didn't call?I was sure she had forgotten. I called her up two days later and we talked for some 30 minutes till I told her I am eligible to watch 'Being Cyrus',an adult movie."Not so fast!" she said "You ain't 18 yet.You'll turn 18 on......".And there was a pause followed by a long (and irritating) apology."I ought to be punished"she said"And so I'll read your blog tomorrow."I was happy.(I was happy?Why should I be happy when people use my blog as a source of punishment!)So, if she really feels sorry, she'll read this. To make her feel better,I said"That was just 'Tit for Tat'.Wasn't it?"This was a mistake.I could imagine her eyes twinkling and a mischeivous smile lighting up her face."Yeah."she said"Tit for Tat.And you weren't punished!"
Oops!So after she has read(tolerated)my blog,it'll be my turn.She does 'my' thing and I'll have to do 'her' thing. So what will it be?Scolding boys,shopping for long(i mean really long),or turning blank CDs into coasters and rags into designer wears.Well friend,whatever it will be,I'll do it.Afterall,it got to be 'Tit fot Tat'!
