The Person I Dislike Most

Man is a social animal. He comes in contact with different kinds of persons. However, they may be good or they may be bad.

I know many persons both in my school and in my street. Of all these persons I dislike Ramesh the most. He is my class-fellow and lives in my street. He belongs to a good family but is not liked by me. He is always late for school. On his way to the school, he indulges in eve-teasing. He goes on whistling while cycling.

He is a person with bad habits and always moves in a bad company. His parents many a time have advised him to shun the company of bad boys but he always pays a deaf ear to their advice. Recently, has also started taking some drugs.

Once I saw him smoking a cigarette. He was also caught stealing the books of his class-fellows and selling them in the market. If somebody gives him a bit of advice, he starts abusing the person and asks him to mind his own business.

He visits cinema houses very frequently. He sees films even without telling his parents. All-day he is busy playing cards with other boys. He does not attend properly to the lectures of the teachers. He is scolded by every teacher. Somehow or the other, in the final examination, using unfair means, he manages to pass the examination.

In the class, he quarrels with everybody. He never comes to the class with his homework complete. At home, he also quarrels with his younger brother, sister, and cousins. He is always teasing his old grandmother. Many times, he is taken to task by his father. So after he does not go the school and loiters in the bazaar. In the playground, he would quarrel with his fellow players on one pretext or the other.

Once his mother beat him so badly when he stole two hundred rupee notes from her purse. The teachers have failed to reform him. The parents get fed up with him and curse the day when he was born. Twice I tried to advise him but it was of no use. He even started abusing me and since then he is not on speaking terms with me. He is the person I now dislike most. Still, I pray to the Almighty God to change the course of his life.
