Silence was all that could be heard, a road to his home was all that he could see, Mohit was on a journey back to his home from a trip in which he mustered many experiences. Smile on his face and tears in his eyes, what could be so intense that made his heart cry?

On his way to his trip where he was going to enjoy with his fellow mates, Rihan and Samar, he was going to live the golden days of his life as “THE THREE MUSKETEERS”, as people called them so, were going on a trip to Australia. Very much excited, very much exhilarated, the three decided to meet in Bombay and then they would fly all the way to their destination place together. Who doesn’t like enjoying a holiday trip with the besties of his/her life? I am sure everyone does!

A trip with friends is worth more than a billion bucks and the 2 fellow mates understood that very well. They cherished every moment they all spent together in Australia.

Misfortune strikes every person in life and so did it struck all the three guys when one night, they were on their way to their hotel and heavy storm brewed in the city. No sight of anything, just a black layer in front of their eyes and they decided to hold each other’s hands and walk to a shelter. Mohit’s leg hit and electric pole and the pain hindered him from walking. He compelled Rihan and Samar to leave him there and advised them to find shelter for their own.

Hours spent in the harsh situation and then everything became calm but not the reaction of Rihan and Samar as they found no trace of Mohit but to their astonishment, they could hear him shouting for help. His voice seemed to be coming from a wall as if he was in between the walls. To their surprise, there was no entrance in the wall. Rihan and Samar, both confused decided to break the wall. They did so; they found him in shaggy clothes but the doubt which struck Samar that how he got in was unclear. Mohit was shivering of fear and so Rihan and Samar tried to calm him down.

Completely blanked, all that Mohit could see was the smile on his friends’ face that they found him and he hugged them so tightly. Hug from your loved ones is inexpressible! The heartbeats could be very much felt when we get love from our friends.

They enjoyed their moments but they never knew they were making memories when they were enjoying. Time flies when we are enjoying our lives and it was not more than a month when the guys experienced that. Yes, it was time to say ‘goodbye’ to each other and return to their homes. All the three guys, on their way back, all they could hear was the silence, all they could see the roads to their home, smile on their face but tears in their eyes!

Friends add spice to our lives. Friends are our friends, no matter how strong you may be, I assure you that at some stage of life, everyone needs a friend, no matter how big the person maybe. Cherish your moments with friends, don’t let them away. Relatives, siblings may are important in life but the matter of friends is completely different!
