Amit was my best friend according to everyone around us. But, to me he was something more. Much more than anybody else. My special one, occupying that space in my head which reminds me of him every single moment. Yes, I was gay. But, how could I tell him that? He got along famously with girls being a handsome and fun loving guy. Will he even understand me if I tell or would he ridicule me? What if I lost him for ever? These thoughts tormented me often. Hiding my sexuality in a closet was nothing new to me. Fear of my parents' reaction; unacceptability by society; being shamed by others around, there were many reasons. Yet, I gathered courage and told him the truth about me; my feelings for him too. He was silent, his face expressionless. I couldn't read his mind. He walked away without uttering a word. My fears were confirmed. Yes, I had lost him for ever. Tears welled up in my eyes. How could I face him again? Suddenly someone hugged me from behind saying 'I love you'. I turned around shocked. Then I smiled and hugged him back. Sometimes we don't know even our best pals well. They too hide their demons in a closet.
