Rainy Day .....
Well , who doesn't like a shower to beat the scorching heat ,everyone does and so do i. Finally ,Delhi has got its first shower and it has been raining cats and dogs since this morning .Personally, i love rainy season ,it means holiday for me .Since my childhood i don't go to school on a rainy day .i enjoy the rain at home ,looking at it from my huge french window .
but today was an exception ,i had to go for my training .i waited for rain to stop .but it would not . and i saw the other side of rainy season , it made me wish that, it was scorching heat again.the roads with big holes were filled with water .there were many traffic jams .i almost got wet at the bus stand ( but i was carrying an extra pair clothing's). the traffic was slow and the bus was at its stuffed best .i have travelled in stuffed buses before ,but this one was different .i usually get to the middle of the bus .today i was standing on the second step on the gate . i had never stood there in my life .there was just a rod to hang on to .and every passenger in the bus pushed me on the way out .then finally when the bus was empty (that's what the conductor said ) , i could make it to the bonnet of the bus , sandwiched between two stinking aunties !
then by the shear force of the passengers moving as they crossed me , my cell phone fell from my pocket , on the ground ,without me realizing that it had gone .i thought it was gone forever ,but then , i could find its pieces and the battery ,as the stomping passenger bolted out of the bus .
ten minutes later i was out of the bus ,gasping for air .i was an hour late ( now if you know me ,you would know that i don't like being late ) and half drenched looking at the rain and wishing that it was a clear sky !!

Try 'Rain rain go away.' Never works, but fun to sing along. And one can always hope.
