'Akka, when will the bus come? I really want to have a seat in the bus. Am so weary' I said to my sister by holding that hand bag that hung in my shoulder and the other hand holding the lunch bag and mobile.
'Same here da, I too want a seat' my sister said that in the same weary tone.
The sun was showing off its power by showering the heat, to which we showered in sweat.
Our mouth begged for water, but our water bottle disappointed us by saying 'you already completed your water, don't mistake me'.
'Hmmmmm' we sighed. Then we saw the bus. The bus was crowded and overflowed with students and other passengers.
'Noooo this should not happen, pleeeeeaaasseee God nooooo' I prayed a lot but 'No other way go in this bus' was the voice from universe.
When we both climbed in, we seeked for some space to stand.
Wearing saree and traveling in a crowded bus is the arduous task for every women. But somehow or other we manage to travel. That's our secret talentπ.
Handbag was hung over our right shoulder and the left hand holded the lunch bag, pallu of the saree was stuck somewhere in the crowd.
Our bags were crushed and said to us 'I can't tolerate more than this, if I get any pain again, there is now way I will fall from your shoulder'
But we didn't listen to the words of our bags. With some effort we managed to pull our pallu from the crowd and held it tightly in the left hand which also held the lunch bag.
Right hand was holding the iron rods in the bus for support which also had handbag in the shoulder.
That was the moment this angel helped us. She is a granny, she called us and said 'give you bags to me ma, how can you handle those bags?'.
First we gave our lunch bags to her and she too it and kept the bag comfortably, then ' also give me the handbags' she said. ' how can you keep the 4 bags with you ma, won't it be uncomfortable for you'
'it's uncomfortable only for the people who are standing and traveling. It's not for the people who are sitting. If you can help others then why to say no?' we were touched by those words.
She had all the 4 bags with herself and she did that with a smile, that is the best part. Thankyou ma
These people are the angels that Rome in the earth.
Feel grateful for every person you meet in your life.
