So I was in the second year of my college and there was this guy Aadi. Main aur Aadi ek hi class mein padhte thhey. And Aadi was someone who was very much into football. He used to play for college. And I was someone jisne kabhi bhi football nahi dekha to for me Aadi was the best football player of all time.

Aadi ko dekh ke hi football ki vibe aane lagti thi and he used to wear T shirt of a football club, usko sabhi football clubs k players k naam pata tha. He sacrifices his sleep to watch football matches in the common room.

So One day i thought ki mujhe bhi aise cool sa dikhna hai and iske liye mujhe football khelna padega. So I went to the sports shop. I bought a football kit for me and then i went to Aadi and said ki Bhai aaj se main bhi football khelunga.

So I started playing football with Aadi. I learned a lot from him. Usne mujhe kai saare footballers ke baare mein bataya, clubs ke baare mein bataya and obviously some best football games of all time.

I used to practice with Aadi only but one day he wasnt there. So I went to this other guy who was also a very dear friend to me and yes a nice footballer and his name was Surya Pratap Singh, and we used to call him Surya. To uske paas jane k baad i started showcasing my football knowledge jo kuch bhi mujhe pata tha, clubs k baare mein, players ka baare mein. Par he ignored whatever i said aur vo itna impressed bhi nahi laga.

So i asked him ki Surya tumhara favorite club konsa hai? Usne mujhe dekha and he replied ki I dont watch football much, I watch cricket. Maine kaha what! You play football and you dont watch football games? HE replied ki Its okay if you are not a football fan.

And in the final year of our college Surya was the captain of college’s football team.
