Train journey

You get up with the building up heat. You regret for not choosing AC class. The fan already started throwing air seems to be coming from a furnace. You are in the upper birth of a bogie going from howrah to bikaner.you search for your mobile to know the time. You find it in your pocket but the screen isn't showing any time. You press the left top corner key and then the left bottom key.(i wonder sometime why and who thought of this combination for locking the phone which every mobile manufacturer is following now.)The screen is completely unaffected by the act and remains dark. What the @&#* your mind thinks. Is it switched off? It can't be. The battery was sufficiently full last night. You press the start button 2-3 times.and finally there is a glow on the screen. The Tata logo comes and next comes missed alarm 7:30am. But before it could start completely the message comes of "battery low shutting down" and the screen goes blank again. You realize that alarm must be ringing since morning and has drained the battery. You also realised simultaneously that you have another phone and the hand goes inside another pocket. You see the time by pressing a key and think @&#* its just 10:30.
Slowly you got up remove the wires(2headphones and 2 chargers with an extra big headphone) circulating you and come down.the train is slowing down. You don't want to know where it is. out of the window you see a bridge, the cables holding it, the eyes directed by your sub conscious mind lookfor piller so that it can decide its a suspension bridge or not and then you find the water beneath the bridge. The vast stretch of H2O is none other than ganga. The aged woman on next seat stands up from her seat looks towards it and join her palms in respect in front of her face. You suddenly realise its not just another stream of water, its what is still worshipped by millions of indians inspiteof the fact that its badly rotten. But religion is always above everything in india. After the bridge the train is lowering down to the ground level and than you got to see another ocean. Ocean of buildings. Ranging from tiny to huge, painted to tin shaded. You also thinks about the people living in those. Lots of people, aware, unaware and semi-aware of each other. Everyone of then has his own success/failure story. Sometimes they entanglement each other, some time they repeat in some part, sometimes they are unheard of..... But they are there, irrespective of the fact that whether we approve them, think about them, try to solve them, ignore them... They are there. And suddenly you realize how great the god is. The server has all of this data. May be he is analysing some of them, solving some of them, discarding them and even creating them. Even if he is doing any one of this he has tremendous power. The capacity of server is unreachable with 100's of supercomputers.he controls them in a big way. This server(god) is really worth respecting if not worshipping.but what is in it for him. And there you can't think. What possibly can be in it for HIM. Why has this whole planet and the resources are build up, why these creatures utilizing these resources are made, why are they so much inter-related and why this complete plot of sun, stars, universe is build around them which they keep on exploring. The mind hangs at this question. The eternal question "WHY" really sucks the life out of us. So you press the shut down button of your mind and goes back to sleep.
The train continues to run......

Part 2

All this teasing is going on while appears the great vinny meddy in the room. He has already heard the information floating in the air and here he is arrived not to confirm nor to know whether they are true. He is here to kill the person who ruined the name (aan, baan, and shaan) of rajasthan-haryana group, mechanical group. Moreover this culprit is none other than one of his best buddy. vinny's sweet voice( the beautiful abuses filled with adjectives and suffixed with His name starting with the unique tone of O A of his.) came inside before his body. The mouth continued to work when he joined the crowd around Him and acquired the center seat. "#*&! ..... Rajasthan ki izzat ko ek punjaban ko bech ke aa gaya tu. Dhikkar hai tujh pe. Ek ladki se ye sab sun ke tu zinda kaiser hai..... Tere seniors ne jo Itna naam kar rakha uska sare aam rape karwa ke aa gaya? (Note: Patra who was the only witness of the event kept his mouth shut for next three years. even He dont know about Patra following Him that day).) But He Himself has dug the place to bury.(Usne bhuppi ko bata ke apni khud hi marwa li.) He thought the case will be cool in a few days and be forgotten afterwards but He had no Fucking idea that this incident was going to change his life in NITH forever and in a big way. The pumping of abuses and rebuking increased day by day. Then He decided to take revenge. The MAN ego known to be the most dominating problem in creating wars, problem, disputes, arguments and some major mass-killings in the world (of course after money and girl issue) was back in action. Last time his anger cost him a new Television set.(more about on that story in later blogs). So He wants the revenge. He want to teach them a lesson especially Her.(though he never wanted to hurt Her in any way. But when ego overtake the heart emotions and mind logic than danger or disaster is nearby.)
btw He also started going to gym those days. The results obtained by Ashok were incredible and he must also add some kg. So as to be average weighted person. The thin (make that very thin) skeleton of Him was always keeping Him from indulging any fights taking place in the vicinity. (though he was in the first row during that fight ignited due to Neha in first year but didn't had a chance to grab one of the punches being exchanged.)(more on that case, the great fight with final year, and other abrasive events in future posts).
So where was i?
Ya the gym schedule of Him was with Vinny meddy of course and they headed to juice bar after the 2nd exhaustive exercise of the day.(the first being the lectures from MED and third being the one for which Deepu was known by everyone. (Deepu and other short stories publishing soon)). The hot milk there make sure they stay there for half to one hour. This duration was always intersecting with the time limit of Parvati Girls Hostel. The couples and future ones returning to the guarded cage. The male usually come to JB for a cig or just to talk with vinny(the person with most dangerous HR skills.)(there are a lot of stories coming soon completely dedicated to him)the birds issued total them back to the zoo. The hot milk there gave them always enough time to stare at the returning birds.
And then comes the day which will be repeated again and again by people of NITH in the next few years, the anger was completely causing the motive force behind the event.
He didn't knew this.
after the work out at kBH gym the two of them were sitting at the JB alone. The 7:30 timeline was crossed so there were very few souls in the vicinity. Her name came up and followed the shower of adjectives for His so called bravery.
This time the anger shoot above the critical safe limit and the results were visible soon.
The Hill'ffair (the nautanki festival of NITH with energy, zeal, opportunities and girls with mini skirts in winter) was soon to take place in the campus. Girls were busy practicing for dance and FashP. The sessions were stretched even after the 7:30 mark as they have permission.
while returning from through administrative block a guard was supposed to follow them which was always missing. Some CC would surely accompany them till the big gates.
