“When we first met five years ago, little did we know that we would become besties later on. Our bonding, however, is not the stereotypical one. We believe it is something really different and much deeper.
Five years isn’t that much right? But in our case, it’s a “proper” five years. We are all the time together, be it in school or in tuitions. But not only that, we even stay at each other’s place almost every day. In short, you can say we are like real sisters and we have two mothers and two fathers.
However, some things are difficult to explain between us. When one of us is having a bad day or ends up crying for some reasons, we don’t pacify each other because we simply don’t know how to do that. We fight a lot and we are always there to beat each other, may it be in studies or in a simple game. But we both know that we have each other to avow all our absurdities and dare to be ourselves. People who know us will say we are like Tom and Jerry.
We want to tell all those who have real friends that friendship is a priceless gift that life has offered to you.
Will our friendship always stay the same? We really don’t know because we are aware that life is such that it is inevitable we won’t always be able to spend so much time together. It could be that we get lost in the busy world later on or we both go to different universities for tertiary education and just forget to keep in touch. These are all possibilities but it would be a shame if that happens. So yes, we will have to be strong and devote time to our friendship.
You know, the great M. Ali once said “Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It’s not something you learn in school. However, if you have not learnt the meaning of friendship, you really haven’t learnt anything”.
We have learnt that and we can definitely say that we are blessed to have each other. We want to tell all those who have real friends that friendship is a priceless gift that life has offered to you. If one girl from India and one from Mauritius can become besties like that, then friendship is definitely something sacred!”

“Kan sink-an desela nou’nn zwenn pou premie fwa, pa ti pou dir ki nou pou vinn de nam-kole apre. Selman, nou lamitie pa parey kouma lezot. Nou panse ena enn zafer diferan ek boukou pli profon.
Nou dakor, sink-an pa boukou sa. Me dan nou ka, li enn bon sink-an. Nou touletan ansam, ki li dan lekol ou dan leson. Me pa zis sa, preske toule zour, nou kot nou kamarad. Kapav dir nou kouma de ser ek ki nou ena de mama ek de papa.
Selman, ena bann zafer ki difisil pou explike ant nou. Kan enn parmi nou pas enn move lazourne, ki li plore, nou pa klame li, parski nou pa kone kouma fer sa. Nou lager boukou ek nou touletan dan enn lespri konpetision kont nou kamarad, ki li dan lekol ou dan zwe. Me nou kone ki sakenn vey lor so kamarad ek pou dir nou nou kat verite kan nou pe fer nerport kwa. Dimounn ki konn nou pou dir nou koumadir Tom & Jerry.
Nou ti pou kontan dir a tou seki ena bann vre kamarad ki lamitie enn kado inestimab ki lavi ena pou donn nou.
Eski nou lamitie pou touletan res parey? Nou pa vremem kone, nou konsian ki pou ariv enn moman nou nepli pou kapav ansam kouma aster la. Li kapav parski nou pou telman okipe ki nou pou perdi nou kamarad ou ki nou al de diferan liniversite apre ou zis ki nou bliye pran nou nouvel. Li bann sipozision, me li pou bien vilin si sa arive. Alor wi, nou pou bizin for ek trouv letan pou nou lamitie.
Ou kone, Mohamed Ali inn dir: “Lamitie zafer pli konplike pou explike lor later. Se pa enn zafer nou aprann dan lekol. Selman, si nou pa konn so signifikasion, anvre nou pa’nn aprann nanye”.
Nou nou’nn aprann sa ek nou definitivman kapav dir ki nou beni pou ena sakenn dan nou lavi. Nou ti pou kontan dir a tou seki ena bann vre kamarad ki lamitie enn kado inestimab ki lavi ena pou donn nou. Si enn tifi depi Lind ek enn tifi depi Moris kapav vinn bann meyer kamarad, li definitivman bizin enn zafer sakre.”
