The Boy

in friendship •  7 years ago 

I was playing with my friends in An alley. Between two buildings
But suddenly i realised there was someone else too, A boy who was sitting between two dustbins covered himself with a cardbord box. Well he was so dirty and smelly we didn't care much about him, but while we were playing i caught a sight of him... After me and my friends and i was on my way home i suddenly felt an urge to be... So back in the alley i went after i was done i dont know why i thought to check up on the boy...
So i went were he was sitting and there was nothing but a cardboard box
I felt a bit creeped out but then i went back to my home.... On my way home i felt like someone was watching me... Yeah literally.. But then i said oh common... This is not a movie, may be it was too much Netflix on my mind
Well nothing else really elly happened that day but that boy made an impression on me... The way he was looking at us while we were playing that whole night i coudnt sleep next weekend we went there again.. This time we didnt find the homeless kid there... Well they cramp wherever they find a place so not to be bothered i said in my mind.. Well i dont know why i felt off about it the whole week i was thinking about him and now i wont probably find him anywhere... Well guess what happened next... That strange dirty kid enrolled in our class in following few weeks... It turns out he was a runaway and his mother had died a few years back and father was a junkie... Of course he didnt tell me this instantly
We became friends, and over next few years l knew almost everything about him and he about me... He obviously went to a Foster home was treated better if not well... But even today i that incident where we were playing in the alley and he was sitting between the dustbins... No one noticed him but me... Some people just kinda have connection with you... I am not saying all the beggars might be you soul mates.. But i feel strange writing about this... The connection human has to another human.. Its certainly strange but yet a beautiful feeling... Today Max is my best friend but who whould have know that back in the day
