Who is ajeeb???

The first time I noticed him, was when a colleague of mine pointed me out to him, saying dat he was a bit ajeeb.
Now, when this comment is passed for someone, it is but obvious that a curiosity is built around that character.
So, I did observe him.
Had heard this comment about him from a few other colleagues too - there is something wrong with him and all...

But, I do not feel so...

This guy was just to himself. He would just mind his own business. No gossip, no talk out of the topic, no tell-tales,...just doing his work..sincerely or atleast trying to learn on the job.
Yes, he did not have anyone to be called a friend, he used to have his breakfast and lunch alone, he spoke less...but no one has a right to brand him ajeeb.

We have exchanged a smile and a few here and there talks. That was the only conversation we had in a few days..dat's all..

I feel, he was just alone...within himself.

He did need a friend..someone to talk to, someone to share his lunch with, someone to smile at him, to guide him...

He needed someone to bring him out from his reserved nature.
Wonder y people do not attempt to do this. No one is different from anyone.
All are the same, with the same basic needs and requirements of a social warmth.

Y do people hesitate to put their hands forward for someone but do not hesitate to pass rude comments or make judgements about anyone without knowing him in the first place??

Y don't people just behave like good humans or at least normal beings??

I would prefer to call those who do not give someone a chance or lend a warm hand as ajeeb rather than label that silent guy as ajeeb...
