A short sweet Story :- " THE Best Train Journey ever" !

Now what ?? She has gone off to sleep ! on one hand I am waiting for her to get up and on other I wish that i could continue seeing her like this for ever and ever :)...
dear Diary You must be thinking that I come to you only when I have no one around to tell something ,which I cannot digest alone.I apologize for that.

You know !! this is one of the best Train journey I’ve ever been through and I wish it never ends.
I can see her sleeping like a innocent child on the seat just in front of me. Its the cutest smile I have ever seen.
Why only in happens in a journey and that too when its least expected !

This is making me feel nervous !
Is it by chance or its some destiny that the guy near to me was reading “one night @ the call center”. I remember the girl which the author met
during his journey , told him the complete story. . . and I could also recall the story of 1 of my close senior who had a same experience in the train…. I remember reading it in his blog..
And now, it was again ….but this time the actors of the show were changed ….. …


Everything seemed perfect… everything .! Her long black hair with a tiny clutch not enough to hold them all , the extreme fair and glowing skin, her big grey eyes at which you could gaze for hours and hours without wasting any time in blinking, it is getting tough for me to take my eyes away for even for a second.
I never thought that today I was going to experience one of the GOD’s beautiful creations ,wearing gorgeous bluish-red suit. ;) and then penning this down sitting in front of her while seeing her snooze.
Aah… !!
At 5:00 pm when I was boarding the train ,I felt very alone as if something was missing.
Though I was going back home but the mere thought of leaving my dearest of friends was making me feel worse.

BUT, the moment I reached my seat “no.35 - lower birth”, all the old weird thoughts and feelings flew away like a pigeon who flies as soon as it finds the cage open.
My mind started making space for new thoughts and my heart – new feelings ;)
My thoughts changed their route and were making their path towards more “beautiful” and “sweet” destinations. Without wasting any more time I grabbed my seat ,adjusted my luggage and ‘TRIED’ to be comfortable. Now was the time to start some conversation ,but I could think of nothing at that moment .
She was there with her parents. I tried to think of something to start with but she was not letting me even think something. As when you see beautiful flower or scenery it feels to stop there at once and keep looking at it . The divine feeling ,the happiness that you get from that was the same with GOD’s this creation.Time had arrived when some ‘adrenalin’ like thing was needed which could work this out, as it was indeed an EMERGENCY .I needed some fast questions to throw upon them. Though I recalled later of some which were some of the best and simple ways to start any conversation but at that time I was completely BLANK!!.
Just when it seemed that my adrenalin had started working well and I was about to poke my nose In their conversation I had a hard look at a gentlemen who seemed to be her father. Its like natural to guys that before speaking to any girl and that too in front of her father most of them would try to confirm that he won’t give weird looks or a thrash if in any case something ‘immoral’ comes out from their mouth. I did the same. The moment I grabbed a look of him, It felt as if keeping your mouth shut is the best thing I should do in this situation. But still I wanted to give it a try. It was a long 9 hours journey and who knows . . . ?

When nothing seemed to be working well for me I started reading one of the books which I had with me . I would rather say that I ‘pretended’ to ;)!
While I was going through the book I realized that she was also looking at me occasionally. Though I know you would say that whenever any girls looks at a guy and gives a sweet smiles to him there is something or CAN be b/w them( this is what guys do think), but here there was no smile ,just a mere glance.
I was waiting for that look of her with a naughty smile and I kept waiting till It had been 3 hours and I was busy listening romantic songs which were the best ones for the moment.
I was enjoying them UNTIL someone poked me . I opened my eyes to see who was trying to take me out of the aroma of those romantic songs, and to my astonishment it was The ‘Father’ .Suddenly many questions startled my mind,I could feel my amplified heartbeat , I started wondering… did I do anything wrong ? But to my amaze “ beta, aapke paas nokia ka patli pin waala charger hai” ? ? ? he he spoke with a nice smile …What was that ??? huh…. I was relieved .But this time a simple “no” by me would have been the foolish thing I would have ever done. This was like the free gift which I GOT from him. I never looked back from then onward as if my heart and soul were longing for this particular moment to come. Initially I was a bit nervous and I don’t know why ? I’ve never been nervous before talking to new people . Slowly and slowly everything started going well. I came to know that her mother was a Principal and father was also some govt. employee. She was joining as a fresher in one of the Engineering colleges .

In no time everything became normal ,probably wearing my college T-shirt gave me an advantage this one single time. As they came to know that I was into my 3rd year, they started taking interest in everything I was saying. We all started sharing all lovely moments of our lives, as if we weren’t strangers.
More than half of the journey had passed . As we all were having a gala time, going off to sleep was the last option I would ever have chosen. But it was her dad and mom who went off to sleep and forced her too. But we were enjoying each other’s company so much that it looked as if she also never wanted to. At last when she started assembling her bed and finally was going to lye down we looked at each other. I could see in her eyes , she didn’t wanted to. Though she obeyed her father orders but was not able to sleep. Occasionally we looked at each other and passed smiles. This was getting better and much better than I ever expected. After trying for more than an hour she stood up .Though I knew she did not take a nap but still The ‘just out of the bed’ look was a killing one. How can one be so cute? After washing her face she came and sat down next to me. For a moment I was surprised, but she continued talking to me from the point we left. She showed me snaps of her and her sister’s childhood, the places they visited. I thought at once that it was all going very fast and far too. I had ONLY one fear that if anyone of her family member sees us chatting at this time of night, that too when most of the people are asleep, It would become the scariest night of my life. At least I feared from her father if not her. We continued to talk about each other’s friends , college life … and everything we possibly could.


But “JISKA darrr tha wahi hua “… !
He woke up. I had nothing to say to anyone. What possibly I could have said at this moment. I looked at her face and then her father and again and again. She stood up and went off to sleep quietly. Now I was wondering what next ? Would he scold me like anything or it would be something more ?.. something which I could have never thought off ? but just after giving me a weird long look he went off back to sleep. Ahhhh… what a sigh of relief it was !
The silence around may have forced him . whatever it was, it saved me !
And now I can see her sleeping right in front, with very special endearing smile on her face. I wish I could sit here forever. Its still 1:00 am 2 hours left for my station to come. Lets see what happens after this. hey diary I am feeling very sleepy now . I should better go off to sleep , I want to wake up before she leaves and . . . . . . . . .
Don’t worry diary agar mood hua toh fir milengey tumse .Thanks for being my friend who would listen to me without speaking a word...

                                                                              !THE END OF PART ONE !
