I strolled across the tracks in pursuit of railway station. But the heat kept on showering its laser beam throughout, and the problematic thing was its endless supply of ammo. And finally I came across my next vehicle after a horrid walk. The railway station was a typical Indian package:
- Policeman as usual digging up something & cracking daft jokes.
- A blind beggar easily getting into the compartment of the crowded train without any help from any one and started begging ASAP!
- Apparently any question like ‘Where’s my Seat?’ are considered to be a comical question.
- The quality of the food even worse than the worst Indian dungeon.
- And people showcasing their ‘remaining’ 20 odd teeth either with a smile or ire & seemingly for no reason indeed.
Oh boy! The number of stunts that these folks perform on my favorite transportation mode is TOO DAMN HIGH! Either you agree with me or you haven’t traveled in railways enough.
Anyhow I decided to pick a relatively safe place & doze for a bit. Alas! Doze & me, we share a sincere relationship where it over showers it’s love without suspension and obviously I ended up couple stations farther away from my destination. Stupid love! Stupid train! Stupid Chinty!
An instant train to return was rather dubious, as Indian railways aren’t in the ownership of my pops. I decided to take a stroll in the unnamed land & well the inception was a deception to an end. Yea, the village was too small to take a meander walk even for Sir Winston Churchill. Luck as said by horoscope was on my side today, & the train arrived after I made a pool of sweat.
This time I was wide awake & my quest to spend some time with birdies was on the move. I had ensured that I cherry-picked a frenzied weekday, as I didn’t want any rush on this spot due to my social awkwardness. I dashed towards the quietest place, I was going to witness. These 3 little baboons helped me to show the gateway to paradise 🙂
The scorching heat had already sucked out any liquids that existed in my body. And so I decided not to share my can with the birdie, truth be told I wouldn’t have shared it even if I wasn’t thirsty. But to prove that I was not the avatar of Satan I ‘had’ to donate nuts & grains.
The dozen people that were present also started to disappear. Hell yeah! My kingdom, kneel before me you little birdies. “Kwack, kwack…” and some other foreign language they squawked. Anyway there was still time for the dusk to bestow its presence upon, so why not another little nap?!!!
I roused at the sight of sunset & birdies disappearing together at their home, maybe? But that spectacle of their flight was priceless to say the least. I couldn’t stop admiring & well……& hoping positively of a decent life ahead!
Certain events shall be recapped & one of those was when I was rushing to catch the train during termination of twilight to return back home; and encountering the snake. I don’t know who was more frightened among us? As we both took reverse gear in top speeds, I think the snake was more afraid. But I had a good day & a blessed night as I reached my own utopia ….enough said!
