4 feet 10 inches faced, black eyes, brown hair, slender body and a little sense of humor was a complete description of Vijay. Vijay was dark-skinned, I was light-skinned. Vijay was from Kolkata. A city in west Bengal. Kati roll, a famous dish of Kolkata was his favorite dish. Which he ate in a way annoyed me. My country, India, is one with a diverse culture with each state having its on diverse culture but those of the west and south were two extremes which was a major difference between Vijay and me. He originated from the north while I originated from the east.

He was a transfer students from Kolkata and came to Chennai because of his dad's job transfer. On the first day of my 10th grade our class teacher made me sit near him and from then onwards I got to know about him. In 2nd semester we had to do a chemistry project that was needed to be done in pairs and our chemistry teacher assigned Vijay as my partner and I thought "how could I cope?" this proximity made me realize more disparities between us. But this project was very important for us as it counted for final exams grade.so I decided to keep my difference asides and team up and tackle the obstacle. So we sat down and spoke to each other and resolved our differences and worked on the project as a team and when we submitted our project

After the project, we became like a matchstick and a matchbox, we were needed together to produce light which was evident in other activities. Such activities included heading the NCC in the school's Inter-house Sport competition, volunteer community services and so many others. My encounter and relationship with Vijay made me realize that diversity is not a barrier to peaceful coexistence and productive living
