It was a saturday and as usual , i came to the discussion session but i was alone today.. none of the other came.. So i texted anjoor "its naveen today.. doing some excellent problems.." and he replied "naa.. not coming.." . So i sent "aliyaa.. i am alone.. nee vaa.. " and he replied.. "ok... coming.."..
So we sat through the discussion session and was out by 1pm. When we were leaving, we saw couple of seniors standing outside and looking up into the trees.. Obviously, we too looked to see what they were looking at.. (i had a fear, if it was a practical joke.. but it was not..).. There was crow trapped in the trees.. its wing got tangled in some thread and was trying its best to escape somehow...
Now, anjoor is an animal lover.. i didn't know that yet.. Now, i looked around, and honestly didn't think we could save the crow.. so i was insisting we should go for lunch.. finally anjoor agreed.. He decided to go have lunch and come back and try to save it.. and i knew that amby , anzu and safdar would all be up for an adventure like this.. so when anjoor told them about this, they all agreed without a second thought.. seeing this me and nikri also decided to go, to see what'll happen.. by the time we reached the place, we were some 15- 20 guys, with amby, anjoor and safdar taking the lead..
A few tree climbs, later they decided, they need to cut the branch to save the crow.. anzu was controlling the traffic mean while.. in between amby went and brought a guy who works near our swimming pool.. He brought with him a long rod with a sickle like thing tied at the end.. half an hour's hard work later, they managed to set the crow free.. (there was us cutting the wrong branch, us realising that the thread was a plastic one, us fearing the branch would fall over the electric line and would earn us all suspensions.. ) ..
It just got me wondering.. what if anjoor was like me, and decided there was no hope for the crow??? what if amby and others didn't join the rescue mission? I just realised.. You should always try, even if you see no hope.. coz there might always be someone who would come for help, with a better idea than yours..
