Naresh- Hi bro. How are you?
Dinesh- Great bro. How are you?
Teacher enters the class room and everyone stands up in honour of him.
Teacher- Sit down everyone. So today is the day for the results of the examination. Are you ready?
Students- Yes sir.
Teacher- There is a good news and a bad news. Which one should I tell first? Govind? Tell me
nervous Govind stands up and asks
Govind- Did I pass the exam sir?
Teacher- Congratulations students! The good news is each and everyone in our class passes the exam. But the bad news is..
two of us are the toppers in the country, so sad.
Everyone seems confused untill they understand that teacher is joking and start shouting Naresh and Dinesh.
Teacher- Shh.. Shh.. Be quite students. Ok Ok shout as much as you can. Everyone must know that we have two great geniuses in our class. *phone rings*
Teacher- I am coming students, keep quiet.
Teacher leaves the class
Reema- Are you both brothers? I mean you look similar, you think similar, you always stay together. Even you always score similar.
Seema- No no sister how they can be? Look at us, we just look same. But the whole school knows we have totally opposite personalities.
Naresh- Ya, you are right. Genetics decide how you look but it can't determine how you think. I think intelligence and perception decides that how you think and your thoughts cause your action and finally all of these combined makes you who you are.
Dinesh- That's what I was thinking.
Reema- But how your thoughts could be so similar?
Dinesh- It's not that we think the same. We are as different as two humans can be. But we seem so similar because we understand the human mind and how it processes something and that helps us understand people better. And because we both understand people better, we understand eachother better then anyone can.
Naresh- Also we respect our differences because it makes us unique. And that makes us more similar. Ha ha ha
Dibakar was listening to the conversation and asked
Dibakar- But what about your looks. You both look very similar.
Naresh- No we don't look similar we look very different. Ya you can match some of our facial features but we don't look as same as you people are telling.
Dinesh- Ya look at Reema. I am pointing at Seema thinking it's Reema. You are Seema right?
Reema- No I am Reema.
Dinesh- See, I can't even tell who is Seema and who is Reema. Can this happen in case of Naresh and me?
Teacher enters the class.
Teacher- Listen students all of you come here as I call your roll number and take your answer sheets. I will put Dinesh and Naresh for last as they are the special people in this class.
Teacher calls one by one, and students took their answer sheets.
Teacher- Is any one left? ok Now it's time to Congratulate our most brilliant students Naresh and Dinesh. Give a huge round of applause.
Teacher gives Naresh his marksheets
Teacher- Here Naresh
Teacher gives Dinesh his marksheets
Teacher- Naresh...
Teacher- 99.9 percent you both have got same percentage as always but I don't understand why you both get 100 out of 100 in every subject but Naresh you get 99.5 marks in boilogy and and in case of Dinesh it's physics but why only these two subjects, where do the 0.5 mark go?
Naresh- Should I explain this or you are explaining Dinesh?
Dinesh- No no you go.
Naresh- Mm...
Dinesh- Ok let me tell this, So sir we are good at all subjects but we are creative at our subject which is Physics for me and biology for Naresh.
Teacher- Does it have any connection in your half marks that are being cut?
Naresh- Yes sir. What happens is when we give tests of other subjects, we answer what teacher and book told us with the help of some of our intelligence and most of our memory but in our subjects we answer what we understand and what we realise so we answer more from our intelligence and less from our memory. But the 0.5 marks which are being cut is not because we are intelligent these are being cut because we show our creativity and imagination which are fascinating but not too understandable.
Teacher- That's what legends would say
(Naresh and Dinesh had a huge smile refusing the statement)
Teacher- Ok ok! You may go now.
Naresh and Dinesh went to their seat.
Teacher calls Dinesh
Dinesh- Yes sir
Teacher- Congratulations!
Dinesh- Why sir?
Teacher- Oh sorry I should have already told you that.
Dinesh- What is the matter sir?
Teacher- Your father came here and told us that you are moving to foreign because of your father's promotion your whole family is shifting there. I know all of sudden it's a surprise for you but you will get to a new place and you will learn new things.
Naresh and Dinesh look at eachother surprised
Teacher- Everybody give a nice goodbye to your friend.
Naresh- No Dinesh, why
Dinesh- I don't know.
Teacher- Let's go Dinesh.
Dinesh- wait.. no... stop...
Teacher- Come on, your father is waiting.
Teacher takes Dinesh outside before Naresh and Dinesh can understand what is happening Dinesh was gone.
