Guruvayoor Express

Easily, it could have been the worst train journeys, but for her Presence. The train was scheduled at midnight. After a long day in Ernakulam and its backwaters trip, we were all expecting the train at the station, but rain came before that. All of us were wet, and losing our patience by the time the train had arrived. To our surprise, the reserved compartments, where no way looking like that. There wasn't any space to enter in, forget finding our seats. Since it is only a 3 hours journey, I had booked for Seater chair, and all of them were occupied.

We had to literally drag people out of our seats to take ours. We were all certainly disgusted with the suffocation spread everywhere there. The people were everywhere, leaving out any scope of a circulation space. They are everywhere, on top of the luggage space, beside the toilets, above everything. As usual we had the our Monish man with a WL ticket, and we had to adjust within ourselves. Forget about others, we had to be Squeezed for our own space.

Had no clue, how the travel came to end. Sruti was clearly pissed when we got down. She wasn't showing any cheer, nor others. Of course, I could see only her and attend that issue. I told, "Guys the next leg is starting here from Nagercoil station. Lets have some great time in his wedding today". No one was amused to hear a thing now. Sruti gave me that look, as I went to her. I hugged and told her, "Its over! It will be good from here". She smiled.
