As usual , i was enjoying my bus ride to my college with the company of my favorite music . Things around me looked normal ,except that my bus was a little crowded than usual . My phone kept on vibrating with SMS's from my friends , questioning if i got a bus as they haven't and that there is a wave of tension spreading through out the city because of a fight between some political face and the bus drivers of a particular junction .I reached college and slowly others started coming in , a little late actually .
That wave of tension hit me when i left my coll . Friends of other departments were sending messages that there were no buses in the roads . I kinda got nervous as i had tickets for endhiran and had to reach there in time .I was worried and there came to my rescue , my beloved 47-A .Got into it happily with all the tension relieved . But that calmness vanished when i reached T.Nagar . First the bus was diverted , the driver got confused , then came along the same road . People became restless and started panicking. The panic level increased as a man , middle aged , came near our bus and asked the driver if he wishes to see his family tomorrow or not , in a tone and style which a characteristic of Indian movie villains . That added more masala to the scene .People started rushing out of the bus and i was worried if the conductor would return the money . (Deluxe Bus !!!! 10 Rs/- total waste) . I too got down caring less about that money and more about how i would reach for the movie in time .
T.nagar which is usually crowded with people , was crowded with empty buses all the way . I guess around 40 buses blocked the road . I walked amused and to get a neat story of what happened there , i talked with lady selling fruits by the roadside . According to her , there happened a fight between a few supporters of that bus driver who got into a fight with the politician , and the other side . I happened to get a glimpse of few school children crying and people busy talking to friends and relatives about the incident . I was advised by my friend and my father to get an auto or travel by train . I walked some distance , and there came my savior , in slow motion , I was way too glad to see 47-bus coming to give me a ride . That bus alone was allowed to get through because of the school children in there . Great !!! Thank God !!! I was so relieved and got my lost hope back , that i would reach the theatre in time .
Overall !!! It was an interesting day ..
