5. Paragraph 6

 

One day, there was an argument between the families of Vetri and Asif. Both the families stopped talking to each other, but Asif and Vetri did not care about it. They continued to be good friends. Everybody was surprised that their friendship was not disturbed by their parents' fight. There was competition between them, but it was productive - both of them improved without pulling down/defeating the other. No factor could change the friendship between them - not even their marks, exams or results. But their friendship continued only till tenth standard. Their families moved to different places - Vetri moved to Coimbatore and Asif moved to Chennai. Later Asif started his business in Chennai and settled down there itself. Vetri settled in Coimbatore. He always wanted to meet his friend Asif, but he never got the opportunity to visit Chennai.
