It always happens
with me. The more I try to hurry, the more I falter. I even decided to leave
office early to reach home early, but…
Couldn’t my boss wait till tomorrow for me to finish the new assignment
that he had given me. He couldn’t. After all Bosses all around the world aren’t
abused for nothing. Then that auto driver – he was no less. He kept waiting for
more and more passengers to come. Isn’t there a ceiling on the no. of
passengers that they can carry? Will definitely check out tomorrow. That was
not all. The ferry decided to halt service for the day. Unexpected technical
difficulties, they said. Unexpected - as if we don’t know. When I finally took
the bus and heaved a sigh of relief at the thought of finally reaching home,
albeit a little late, I got my ultimate shock. I had boarded the wrong bus.
Thank god, I realized in time and switched to the right one. 40 minutes later
as I got down at my stop, all I could do was pray that I wasn’t too late, that
I hadn’t kept him waiting for long. After all, it is only sometimes that we get
to spend time together - with our busy schedules and colossal responsibilities.
