It was just another afternoon when i was coming back to IITR after 5 days of holidays at home. As always, i chose metro for my way to Kashmiri gate bus terminal. I was just wondering in the train how Delhi has suddenly turned so beautiful ! or its my eyesight which has started lookin for beauty in everything !!! Just as i was lost in these thoughts, i sought some space on a seat next to a some 7 yr old gal. But she denied ! Before i could place my bumps to claim the seat, she covered it with two legs. Oh ! i hate kids like that. But what i saw next was more interesting. A boy about 8 was looking for seat and she offered that seat to him.
I thought oh fool ! don't think too much, he must be her bro. So i stood-up erect at the same place. The seat winner boy asked me to bend down and murmured in my years... kya soch rahe ho bhayiya ?... aapko pata nahin ye mujhpe line maar rahi hai !!!
i was shocked... Did i really hear that ? I scolded him... "shut up and sit quiet". Before i could conclude how could a boy of 8 think such a thing, he took out some chocolate and presented it to her. The gal was more than happy...
'oh, that was the reason for the seat...', the train had reached the station, and i left the train with some questions...
