55.: addictive
Debating champion, 3 years running in school. Winner, all state competition in uni. The quickest wit amongst his friends, the one to step up to 'talk their way out' of tight spots with the cops.
Brilliantly verbose they called him.
10 years past, he looked at pictures from her wedding and thought " I couldnt say those three words"
---------------------
" What are you getting him for his birthday?"
"An inscribed zippo and a carton of his favorites"
"Yuck, you're his best friend, you want to kill him or what?"
"It's his life yaar, leave him alone"
The test results came out on his birthday....
the bottomside of the zippo read " friends forever"
---------------------
They always made fun of him.
"Dumbass, loser, chutiya"
He only had fair weather friends, he reminded himself of charlie brown, without the cute dog....
2 decades later he sits back in his leather armchair smiles at the picture from graduation day..noone found out who put the bomb in the cafeteria"

Fantastic :)
I really really liked the first one. And the second one too. All 3 actually.
You have no idea how hard it is to stop though. But keep on writing...they make great reads.
