Arindam: - Hey, Rina, I saw all those pictures in your facebook account. I liked all those pictures, especially the snaps of those sceneries that you have taken while travelling by the train. Really, I think that both of you have really enjoyed the tour very much. By the way, your Nikkon camera is not bad at all. The qualities of those pictures are just superb.
Rina: - Yeah, Nikkon is a good camera. In addition, after all, you must appreciate that I am a good photographer too.
Subhash: - By the way, Rina; Arindam is talking about which snaps. You took snaps, while we were travelling by train!
Arindam: - lo karlo baath…You travelled to that place with your wife by train and you don’t know, when Rina has taken the snaps of those beautiful tunnels, hills and other beautiful sceneries. It sounds very funny, indeed.
Rina: - How will my hubby know about that? He was just having a nice sleep, while sitting inside that train. I really don’t know, why he always goes to sleep, when he travels in any kind of transport vehicles. Whether it is train, bus, tram, ship, plane, and metro rail, he will just go to sleep. If it is a long journey, then he will sleep for long time like a Kumbhakarna.
Moinak: - Arrey, maybe, Subhash loves to sleep too much in his house also. That is his bad habit only.
Rina: - No, no, believe me, it is just the opposite one. At home, he hardly sleeps. It is me only, who has to force him to go to sleep sometimes. He can even remain awake till 3 AM and attend the office on 9 AM on that day only. But, that person totally changes, when he is travelling in a car or bus or train.
Subhash: - Ha ha ha…actually, I also don’t know, why I go to sleep while travelling. But, somehow, that soothing natural wind has its own soothing effect. I feel as if Mother Nature just makes me sleep on her lap, while I am travelling to some new destinations.
Moinak: - Nowadays, I also go to sleep on cabs; while coming from Hi-Tech City to Begumpet. One day, I opened my eyes and I saw that the cab has stopped at Patny. I boasted at the cab driver, as he has not awakened me, when we reached Begumpet. Actually, the cab driver was also unaware that I will get down at Begumpet. Now, before I go to sleep inside the cabs, I tell the cab driver that I will get down at Begumpet only.
Rina: - He he he…you people know something; my father was once travelling to his village by bus. He was sleeping inside the bus. The Bus conductor shouted at my dad to awaken him, when the bus reached Champakpur village. My dad woke up and found all the passengers inside that bus laughing at him, as he was sleeping. Then, he just came down from the bus with two luggages. When my dad reached his house, my grandma and grandpa just scolded him so badly. My uncle told me this story to me. My dad was just crying after getting all those scolding from my grandma and grandpa.
Arindam: - Arrey, very funny. Why were your great grandparents scolding your dad? Is sleeping inside the bus is a sin?
Rina: - He he he…no, no, Arindam. Actually, in the 3rd luggage, there were jewels of worth 25,000 rupees. The jewels were specially ordered and made for my dad’s sister for her marriage. My dad came down from the bus, in a very sleepy mood and totally forgot about that 3rd luggage. So, you can understand that sleeping inside the bus can also make such a loss for you.
Moinak: - Hmm…well, but we can’t help it. We, boys always have a tendency to go to sleep while travelling. I always have some fantastic dreams, while sleeping inside the bus. What do you say, Arindam?
Arindam: - No, no, it is just the opposite in my case. Rather, I watch people sleeping in the train or bus. I cannot sleep while travelling. I just watch the lovely nature. I am a very lazy customer. I sleep too much at my house and in office too, but while travelling, I am always awake. I just watch sweet girls sleeping in the bus or train and I admire their beauty. They just look like sweet flowers in a garden. I still remember that sleeping ‘Sanjana Gollapudi’, while I was travelling from Chennai to Hyderabad in a non A/C Volvo. Sometimes, “SLEEPY TRAVELLERS” look very sweet and beautiful too.
