The train(Sum journeys r worth more)



The train is passing by.I cant divert my attention from her thats the impact she had on me with in a short span.Occassionally i looked out of da window but da nature seemed pretty unusual coz im sitting infront of an angel.The journey continued and a station named "Rajahmundry" came and i got down to have a break.I was standing near a higgin bothoms stall lookin at a novel of my favourite author.Iam so amazed about da prologue of da novel dat i cant even hear da announcement of train leavin da station.As soon as i sensed da departure of train i was on my foot towards train running in a hurry.The door is just two foot away from me but i cant hold it.I tried to scream for a help but to my utter ashtonishment i found a hand coming towards me for help.I was thinking dat dis hand would be the girl's hand(Had a dream duet also ) but surprised to see a guy after gettin in to da train and thanked him for his help.I went to my berth n tried to continue my luv story.


The man who gave me his hand to me for help is sitting opposite to both of us( i mean girl and me).I was getting da feeling dat i've seen him somewhere.After a short while i recognised him as my schoolmate Gopi who used to be an average student in our class ofcourse im also the same.At first i think he was going to attend any interview somewhere in chennai,but i saw a young lady 22 years of age sitting beside him.Finally thought dat they r run away couple and wanted to know about them.I went to him and asked how r u and do u recognise me.He said oh ya"how can i forget you.U r da one whom i used to admire most in my childhood".I was so impressed by dat compliment.With dat i thought i can ask him about her.He replied "she is my wife,And we r going to vijayawada to get help from my father's friend.I think there will be any job there".I was surprised to see dat his wife was pregnant in such a short age.


Meanwhile the girl whom i was seeing got engaged with his wife and they r talking like a good friends.I was again tryin to look at da girl but thought dat it would be better to make a conversation with her after tha couple will leave da train.I found my friend gopi talking with someone in his mobile,after a little while he came and asked me"hey john would u please gimme ur mobile coz i ran out of time with my mobile".I replied "oh sure please go ahead"and gave him my mobile.He took da mobile and gave me after sumtym.After a one and half hour journey da couple r nearing their destination i.e., vijayawada.I was trying to trying to take a short nap,but woke up hearing a large scream from Gopi's wife.I asked Gopi wats da matter he said that the chain worn by his wife was lost.His wife was crying about the chain Gopi said to me "Hey john this chain is wat im going to sell and get money to get a job.But now its lost how can i get a job without money.
Anything in dis world is linked with money".By saying these words he burst out of tears.I felt pity for him and gave him my number to call me if he needs any help (felt little guilty that im trying to execute supremacy over him).The station came and Gopi thanked me and said dat "i will call if i need any help" and left da trian with his wife.


It took me another half an hour to get out of dat situation.To divert my mood i tried to chat with that girl.She also showed intrest and we both r talking.I found a chain in her hand and asked her how much it costs.She said "i dont know.May be ur friend Gopi knows".I was terribly ashtonished hearing those words.I asked her "are u a theif"she replied "im a graduate and an unemployee.I did not stole it from gopi's wife.When they r about to leave da train i found this chain lying down my berth.Still they r in da train but i did not reveal it to them".


I asked her " why you have done like dis.I thought you as an angel in my first impression.But now i believe dat "appearences are deceptive".I thought that she will be deeply hurt by listening these words and gives me an apology.But she spoke softly"Everyone in dis world needs money for their existence.I need this chain to get money for my father's heart operation in chennai.I never tried to cheat anyone.But im not the one to loose any opurtunity that costs my father's life".I opposed her that"But this money would help Gopi and his wife in their search towards a job.So wat do u say about that".
She said "In this world if anyone needs to be happy then his neighbours must be hurt otherwise how on earth would a person be happy.Let us take an example of Gopi.If he sells dis chain he would get money and obtain job.But dis job he got not out of his worth.There r so many worthy people other than Gopi to obtain dat job.Its da money which made dis thing to happen.He's happy becoz the persons who r not selected for da job r unhappy.Thats it"
