Have you ever been best friends with someone whose definition of 'fun' revolves around irritating you until you scream out aloud, due to the torture they mentally inflict on you?
I have and I can tell you from my own experience, that at times, it may be worth it.
You know, in life you come across so many different kinds of people. The rebels, the crazy ones, the geniuses, the idiots, the cool one, the beautiful ones and the rare kind, the true friend ones.
Ateeb Hafeez, though he may seem to belong in more than one particular category, actually falls into the last one.
He's someone who smiles at you and means it. He will go that extra mile for you. And he will drive you insane!
All this, from someone who looks like a skeleton, literally like a skeleton, may seem bit too much to take. And in writing maybe it is.
But in reality, the sheer genuineness of his helping tendency endears him to everybody.
The first time I met Ateeb, was in school. He was a new student who looked lost in that hut of a college that people call BJC. He came across as someone who was shy and introverted. The kind you'd want to protect like a younger brother.
Boy oh boy, was I wrong!
Teebie, (as I call him now) is anything but shy! He's your worst nightmare!
No matter what you try to shut him, he never does. You dread opening your facebook page because of all the spamming he's done.
Your inbox is flooded with messages of notifications and the sanest thought you will ever have, when under "Teeb-Attack" is to pull out your hair, every single strand of it, out of your head and scream on top of your lungs!
So, it must seem impossible for someone to love him, no?
Actually it is not!
See, Teebie too has an awesome love story!
His Laila, is in Calcutta. She's the same age as our lovelorn Majnu, aspires to be a doctor and is stunningly beautiful.
Though both of them are on a "break"( a over used cliche, if there was one), their hearts do clearly belong together!
So, here's wishing our stupid Romeo and his beautiful Juliet a lifetime of happiness and bliss. But most importantly, SANITY!
