A Wet Saturday
Aaj Ki Aankhoun Dekhi(station-Alive and Lively)
It was twenty minutes past nine when i was at platform number one this wet morning and to scribble this thought occured first as i had to kill time for obvious reasons.... as i was an hour earlier to recieve mom... I actually had to pave my way through not only beacuse of the crowd but also because of the moist floor which was very slippery as it was pouring then. .. It was a Dark...Windy and a Wet Saturday morning .......... But beautiful indeed ........ Yet another struggle awaited me which didn't end there and then!........ .... One, to hear the announcement and the other was the test of my tolerance power.. Actually the hindrance was just not the hustle bustle but also the goods train which was passing by that played the spoil sport.... the another part of the struggle was a guy also who just couldn't stopped talking in some regional language very loudly and that too so unabashedly that my tolerance power had gone for a toss really..all that i wanted to do desperately then was to pat his shoulders and spurt some venom on his irritating face ""if only your mom could have snubbed you once as to how to speak softly!"".. I could have walked away but the scarcity of benches and to search for another one would have been an another struggle really!
Was trying to call my mom but in vein.. her fone was switched off.. Couldn't get through.. In between got a call from Bhaiya and later from mom thankfully that her fone is dead and that she's about to reach.. It was an unknown number she was calling from... As i was busy pouring my heartout i could hear my mom's arrival finally amidst all the hullabaloo and hustle bustle and was all geared up in front of the coach... after putting my fone away in a jiffy!!.. as my mom appreciates puntuality ........ So mom and i were at home in Idgah Hills and after all the tête a tête i thought i could finish my Ankhoun Dekhi but still i haven't so bit of correction now... Which is turning the Tense from Present to Past...
O Yes the life on a Platform fascinates me... More then that it's a Wheeler Library also that calls for my attention... Most of my fav books and novels that i have in my collection were a part of my beautiful journey making it so enriching and yet so memorbale that each can tell a story differently!... So when bhaiya called saying that the time he mentioned a night prior was wrong... I didn't mind at all for various reasons.... As i was at my fav destination yearning for a long travel journey with my fav companion... A Book hand in hand!!
