Today I have decided to end the Lahore trip on my blog, so let me see where I left it. Ah! So there it was. The train on which we had to travel back to home parked beside the Indian train waiting with a new adventure for us. I will name it the “Adjusting Adventure”. As soon as we stepped inside the train we set on seat 84 & 85. Started waiting for that one passenger that will be seated on 85 so we can request him to sit on 92 as we wanted to travel along. There came the passenger. He was with his family & he got stupid seat numbers himself. So he set with his wife waiting for the other passenger that would be seated on that chair he was occupying so he send him to the seat that I was on. Oh GOD! This is so complicated. Is it? Well! If this is complicated then wait & tell me what the hell is next. I went to the seat 92 which was assigned to us to see if the other person would change the seat but he refused. So when I came back, I saw a passenger sitting on the seat which I left vacant & my friend arguing with him. I reduced the argument by my politeness & request mode & asked him to take that seat which he got ready for so while I was taking him to that seat another passenger came to my friend saying that it is his seat. I looked at him & walked to him while the other guy that I was taking stood there with no comments. Again I convinced him to take my seat & I took him there and ask him to be seated here. I came back relaxed & after 3 minutes another person started staring me & said it’s my seat. Now who the hell was that sitting on my seat? I took this guy to my seat & when we reached there, the scene was changed. I saw a girl sitting with her mom & when I said it’s my seat she started requesting me to let her sit. Oh GOD! Now what? The person who came with me was a nice one so he said, you go there & sit I will get my self a seat. I came back & now started waiting for someone else to come & stare me which thanks GOD did not happen this time. So I convinced 3 peoples in half an hour to get that seat. That is an achievement.
The journey started and the train started moving towards the destination & we started discussing every moment we spend in Lahore. The train kept on moving but it stopped at almost every station. Throughout the journey I noticed that there was one girl in covered face with her family & she kept on sending sms or kept talking to someone on her mobile. BOY! What a stamina… I really can’t do that coz my thumb start hurting me if I keep on sending sms(s) and I don’t really remember but the mobile she was using was Nokia & it did not die on her throughout the journey. Wow! What a battery life. During the journey my friend said let’s make a bet. Who ever get more numbers of sms(s) would pay for the drinks after the journey. I loved it as I again won it by 14:06. He never thought that it would happen but it did thanks to the so called good friend of mine, the same one that ignored me…
At 10:30 we reached the city & I informed my family that I’m back & so did he. We went to drink fresh juice & yes he paid for it. From there I took a taxi back home while he was near to his home. Reaching home I was so tired but my family was waiting for my story & if I bought something for them. Oh GOD! I forgot. You know why this happened? All because of my dear friend as he planned to buy something & then when I reminded him we were don’t even know how far from that place coz he did not even know the name of the place.
If I have to rate this journey, I would rate it PG but you learn every time while you have an experience. What did I learn? I learnt that the person with me throughout the journey is a great human to be with coz you can always judge a person very easily if you get a chance to travel with him. All’s well that end’s well.
