It was 14th of August 2008!I was going to Lucknow on Rakhi.In India it's Independence day eve, all of us can remember this day as it is.But for me It became a day to remember by different way.
I took two hours leave from my office but as I came out from my office I saw an incredible scene outside my office in electronic city,It was almost flooded.Water has been logged and even nobody was able to cross the street.Then I decided to take my shoes in my hand I started walking in the middle of the road.It was still raining heavily but Since I have to catch my train so I decided to go by feet.I traveled almost for 2-3 kms with bare foot.I can not tell you the situation.It was almost like mountaineering.Roads were jam and even (someone has experienced(cherished) the Old Delhi road from Gurgaon) nature had all over command over all kind of people rich or poor,no one was moving even he was riding a bicycle.Only lucky people like us(pedalers) were moving ahead.I reached my flat.
Hey,Story starts here!I took rikshaw from 14 sector to iffco chowk(four way) a place from where I could get something to Delhi station.But I saw something more horrible as a large crowed waiting for the same.I was not able to get anything from there.I had to reach old delhi railway
station and train was at 11 'o' clock and I found I still had 3 hrs.I have started walking again and this time I walked for almost 3 kms.In the way requested many people for lift but as usual they were in hurry.Rain had stopped but that made more tough as roads were so muddy in sides no one was able to go without being dirt full.I got a bus that took me to vasant kunj where I was not able to get anything again. Now it's 10 'o' clock and I was feeling the blues.I decided to go to friend's house nearby then I decided to give one more chance so I walked in the water logged road and came to another side of the road.I saw an autorikshaw, I told him(in fact requested) to go to delhi station.He charged me 200 rupees.Now lastly when I was about to reach delhi station, rain started again, guess what!!!Auto stopped and was not starting again.I took another auto there and I reached Delhi station at 10:50 pm.
Finally, I got my train.I was so tired as even I did not care two girls seating on side birth.I changed my jeans and went to my upper birth and slept like nothing to get anything in my life!!!
Bye All & Take Care yourselves and your loved ones!!!
