School friends, college friends, Office friends are very special people in our life. We really can't live without them. But what about our chat friends? They are our mere unknown-unseen friends. Rajeev, my (college) friend used to always say "Chatters Are Cheaters and there cannot be a true and pure friendship or love in this world of cheaters". I too beleived him, only till 2 years back when I met my school friend, Revati after 6 long years.
Some 8 yrs back, Revati told me that she was getting married to Avinash-her chat friend. I knew that they were chat friends for almost 2 years but the idea of them getting married, at first did not appeal to me; but I knew it was meaningless explaining her anything. The only thing I could do at that point of time - pray for her happiness.
Revati got married and went to United States. Even her parents shifted to some another place and so there was no idea about her whereabouts.
2 years back, all of a sudden, I met Revati in Mumbai. We were really excited to see each other after so many years. She was accompanied by Avinash and her cute son, Adi. I could understand that Revati was enjoying her family life and Avinash had played a great role of a perfect husband. Looking at the happy couple I really thanked god for all the happiness in her life and even prayed that this continues forever and ever and ever.
On my way back home a thought came in my mind that All Chatters Cannot Be Cheaters. There can be an exceptions like Revati and Avinash. There can be true and pure love or friendship between Chat friends.
I could rightly say then....
Rajeev, I dont beleive you.
