Being a part of a very faithful and pry friend circle, we all are very curious to learn, find and travel various new places. More of our time usually spend in using internet and discovering about so many new places to us and why we should visit those places. I remembered a story of last year, on 5th of february, as always I was reading on internet and that time also thinking about my birthday, the next morning. I doesn't know weather my friends remembered that or not. Next morning, i wake up at 6:30 am and checked my message box in my mobile thinking weather any of my friends send me wish or not, but what my eyes seen, hurts me very bad but i ignored. That was about 7:30 am, one of my friend call me and asked me to came with them for a historical place visit in Lucknow i.e. Residency. I was hurt by them before so I denied their plan. After 5 minutes, another friend call me and requested me to join them. On his request I agreed with him. I was too late to reach on time as we all had decided to meet at 9:00 am. I left my home at approx 8:10 am. I had taken a public transport to reach there. On the way, when i checked my pocket, what i found shocked me very hard, i forgot my wallet at my home and at that time i doesn't have a single penny. I started thinking of what will the driver do when i did not pay him after reaching my destination. My mind was not working. I called my friends and explain them all the situation and tell them about my condition. Then my friends told me not to worry about that and the explained me what to do. After sometime when I reached that place, as my friends suggested me to do, i done the same, I leave the taxi and started moving towards my friends already standing opposite to me. The driver shouted at me to pay him, then one of my friend get to him and pay for me. The taxi driver shocked to see this and surprised on my situation. But i was feeling very glad to have those friends in my life who are always there for me to help me in any way they can. After this incident, they scanned all the tickets and get in the residency. That was the first time I was there , beleive me that place wins my heart , as i love to visit historical monuments and that was one of them. The type of infrastructure and engineering by old era fascinated me a lot. After visiting residency they took me to a place which was seen to be very peaceful and they all together wished me there very loud "Happy Birthday Brother" I was shocked and surprised too, i cant beleive that moment as i had left the hope for that. I was very happy and that feels me like all the happiness of the world gifted to me in a single moment. I can't be able to forget that incident and that precious moment in my whole life. After visiting that place we took our steps towards a restaurant, where as my responsibility i have to give my friends my birthday treat. So i had borrowed some money from one of my friends with a promise to return next day. After that there in restaurant also we enjoyed as much as we can. I remember when i was there to catch the taxi for my home way, they all gifted me a smartphone along with a speech that i like to click many pictures and that phone help me in that. That phone is a precious gift for me and i care about that also. Although this time i have two smart phones but that phone was gifted to me and that is a reason why that is more than a phone to me. My friends means a lot to me and i means a lot to them also. My Love To All My Friends.
