Surprise!!!!
Indian sweets n savouries! Do I need a better motivation to wake up early in the morning ?! nope :-) A bag full of Shree Mithai sweets, which was increased to another bag within few mins. I was gleefully taking all of them, later was told one bag was for me n another one has to be delivered to somebody else. oh ok! never mind one full bag is for me :-)
Now I need to deliver the sweets (Laks courier service :p) I had to travel to this part of the city where I have never been to, since I came here 2 years ago. With the directions from the train station, headed towards Kovan. From the train station, I was instructed to take a bus.
This time I am gonna be careful. Do not want to repeat it again ("this is the first time u have come to this place, so better ask the bus driver, whether the bus goes to the place where u intend to go")
Bus 513 stops.
me: does the bus stop at ......?
driver: no u have to take 512 or 587
me: Thank u
Bus 512 stops.
me: does the bus stop at ... ?
driver: no
me: * blank*
driver: u have to take 513 or 515
me : (513 ?:-o) ok thanks
Bus 515 stops
* before I cud get in, the bus driver was waving his hand towards me. was wondering wat was he trying to say*
me: does the bus stop at ....?
driver: this bus is heading towards the terminus.
me: oh ok.
driver: Never mind, u get in
me: *Blank*
driver: u jus sit down , u don't have to pay.
me : wat ?!!!!!!!!! (This is not possible in this part of the world!!!!!!!! a FREE ride) completely SURPRISED.
The bus reached the terminus.
driver: jus wait in the bus for 5 mins. I will start again.
me: ok sure :)
For the next 5 mins, we were jus chatting.
the bus started again
me: now I tapped :-)
driver: he explained to me where I need to get down n where I need to catch the bus to return back.
me: (real nice guy!)
Alighted from the bus n thanked him with a big smile :)
