Answers plz!!!
When I was travelling in a train a co-passenger asked me few questions, But I always had a second thought about all the questions.
What is your name?
I am Harsha Chaithanya(my mind kept bugging me, did he ask you the name ur parents have decided or the one which you have earned by your living)
What are you doing?
I am studying(Apart from studying you are also working, but you couldnt say something in concrete that you are studying, coz you hardly study)
What do you want to become?
Uhh, huh, I want to settle down in a good job(Do one really give you a job with the kind of confidence you have)
What is it you want to achieve in your lifetime?
hah.. Only thing I want to achieve is to conquer my mind.
He asked several simple questions but I had to get down from the train as my station arrived.
A memorable journey - 2 !!
We were on the platform waiting for the train to BLR.
"
Ting ting ting.....Train number 8563 from Visakhapatnam to Bangalore is going to arrive shortly on platform number 1"
Came the announcement and before finishing our discussion on how punctual our Indian trains are our train was on the platform and we hurried to the compartment where we had our reservations.
As we boarded the train, I could see the magic my entry has done to the compartment. It seemed that there was a sudden supply of power to the whole boggie filled with graduate students making an excursion by my entrance.
That is teh first time I felt I was beautiful. I thanked my parents for making me a girl instead of a boy(which would gather no attention from all those grads). My teen age added weightage to that situation. Had a glance on all the boys with a single look.
We arranged our luggage in our respective berths. I asked my sister to take the lower berth (making up a cock & bull story) thainking that I could have a clear sight of all the boys around.
Though I sound like a flirt, I am a sensible and homely girl.
As I got to the berth, I noticed that the boy opposite my berth was staring at me, infact I liked his apperiance, he was eqally good looking and made a sudden and sharp turn reliasing that I am a girl and should not stare at boys like that.
Though I started reading my novel my eyes were ocassionally looking at him without my knowledge. It was then my heart pound when both our eyes met the first time. I felt as if my heart skipped a beat. though our eyes met for a fraction of a second it was liked the freeued frames in matrix movie moving accross my face.
Usually time runs a tortoise race(slow & steady) unlike this one like a horse in a race. I didnt reliase how fast time is running, but it was really a good experience. It was dinner time and started eating our homemade delicious stuff, packed from our house. A thought confused me whether to offer him or not but I was also not sure how my parents would react and also the guy himself.
He also finished his dinner by the time I finished mine and I took my berth again. I was pretty sure that he had some feelings for me, I couldnt directly proceed with my first sight(ya ya, girls need only few minutes to decide how good a guy is). But I was not sure what kind of feelings he had for me. So stayed calm without taking any extra step apart from throwing a smile at him.
I didnt know how, but I was in deep sleep without my knowledge thinking of how we would be after our marriage. As every story has a villian, I had one villian in my story too, it was my father who disturbed my dream saying that we are reaching our destination. Woke up but he was in sound sleep(thought he would be thinking of me) but I was not confortable when he was not looking at me. Our destination arrived and as were about to get down I purposely called my sister aloud so that he may wake up and see me once.
He woke up and saw me leaving. There ends our train journey but not ours. we are happily married with a daughter Anjali after 6 years of that incident.
