So, its still rainy seasons. Rains are good for some not so good for others. I never hated rains yes but don’t like to walk in so called “pakka sadak” in Mumbai. NOPES!!!!!!
I never experienced the worst condition in Mumbai during heavy rains. Either I don’t go out or reach home early before havoc starts. But this year I could experience rains; oh it’s a torture.
I reach home usually by 6:30-6:45pm, but this day 18th July it was raining like cat and dogs.. It rained so heavily, that my company bus took ‘1 n half-hour’ to reach the stop I get down to the usual 45 mins. On top of that my friend was waiting at my home to pick me up. We had plans to go to her home for a day stay. Damn on that day only. My friend returning from Goa thought to pick me up on the way to her home. And I agreed to it, didn’t knew it will rain so badly.
Late coz of traffic I rushed to the station in knee length water. Oh I walked on that dirty brown water that touched my knee as I was wearing long skirt things got worse. Any wayz reached home an hour late (thank god! trains were running…late… very late but were running). In 10mins changed into dry clothes packed few things n rushed to my friend’s car. Her dad was driving (sweet uncle was so tired but was still waiting patiently 4 me.3 cheers to him). And off we went. Now I think I reached home any wayz but I went out again just to get stuck in that heavy rain and traffic. Her home is only an hour from my house. He He He and it took me 6 hours to reach there. Wonderful isn’t it.
I met my friend (my best buddy) after a long time. So I was excited to chat to her. After some distance our talk ended. Nothing left we both did all the gossip now what???? Comment on rains, that was over and only one thing remained…SLEEP…. I can sleep in a car for long long hours….so I slept bit by bit…..cool
We reached her home by 2am. (8pm-2am) We were standing (traffic didn’t move a bit) just 20 mins away from home for an hour….its bad really bad. hmmm…..Reaching home had dinner chatted again with other family member and went of to sleep by 3-3:30am.oh I remember my college days when we used to study late night.
But this Rain I’ll remember. I am glad I had not seen the worse part of this rains….cars submerge, water inside homes…I was lucky enough to escape all that…but one thing I saw on road that made me sob was small kids trying to hide from rains. These kids have no roof to hide those poor kids stay on road n rains are bad for them…. I can never forget the site of those small sweet kids.
