Just Friends.

This review should have arrived here two months ago but due to my neglect and careless attitude all got delayed. Had it been some other novel I would have neglected it completely but this one is special.

Based on the ever wondered statement  " a girl and a boy can ever be friends.??  " **

from the back of the cover.

She knows everything about him, right from his favorite soccer club to his favorite x- rated websites.
He will complete her English homework, even at three in the night.
She will arrange an Armani suit for him, even if it calls for flirting with ugly guys'.
He has her picture in his wallet.
She has his number on speedial.
They talk to each other all the time.
They talk about each other when they don't talk to each other. 
They discuss everything from periods to playstation.
They have tasted alcohol & then thrown up ...together
They have bunked countless tuitions...together
They can't live without each other
YET
They don't love each other

They  are JUST FRIENDS...

About the book -  Just Friends is the debut novel of Sumrit and like I said earlier based on the ever wondered question. Its the story between 4 persons, coupled at a time.The usual outings , talks, fun which happens between friends. The unusual bonding cracking jokes at every possible situation.

                          " November,

                               When we became besharam best friends. Imprinted in history, guided by practice, arrives a morning after six pervent days, soaked in academic pressure and nights leaking in graphic pleasure.  "

      Page 165 ,2nd para.

                        

                   "  even Einstein would be baffled at the growth of potential momentum, the lone case of induction  of  friction and increase in the intensity of velocity between us.  "

They would cherish each moment together , not giving away a single reason to pull each other's leg.

          "

               "bye, I am going in and you are not invited, " I turned around.

                " no, please, don't.I am homeless, Tanie. mom kicked me out, " he said in a pleading voice.

                I turned around laughing . "Are you serious?" Nothing in this world was serious though.

                "Yes, " he said in a serious tone.I laughed loudly now.

                "are you okay? When I decide to joke, you get angry even before it starts and when I am serious,

                 you laugh like there is no tomorrow." I heard him and started laughing again.He changed his 

                position and sat crosslegged now.

                

                "What is wrong with you? " he demanded.  "

The story ends with a sudden jerk,which was observed by quite a few around me.I personally  would have liked it to be more straight forward. 

And there are seldom relations between a boy and girl which remains till friendship.

What happened to their relation ?
Do they keep their friendship alive or ends up in  love relation.??
 I would leave here to find it yourself.
You would certainly enjoy the journey. ;)

Happy Reading.  :)

**  When my friend asked me " so, what answer did you got in the end ? " 

I was like .......8->

she said instantly "stupid !! you have a practical example infront of you,Our friendship " :)
