Perhaps the worst experience ever. "Missing a damn train" never happened, ever before. Who to blame? Bangalore Traffic, VIP who was supposed to pass by that day, Office responsibilities, missing the lift, talking to that one last person who stopped by to say Hi, ”Sweet and soft hearted” Bangalore auto rickshaw drivers, or as my dad said - me being irresponsible?  So many reasons for a 2mins delay to reach the railway station. And a wait of 3 months to get over, all cause of a delay of 2mins. After all this the only worry I had in my mind was, what the hell am I going to tell all those people I said bye to for the year and made jealous by the number of holidays I got, or the very reason that I am going home and they are still there working their ass off. While coming back the only thought that came across my mind was, where exactly did I lost those 2mins. I checked every nuke and corner and guess what I concluded, that day I went back to the room once again, which is a bad sign (My mom’s belief) and my only scape goat for the whole situation. 

Well as per some scientific honorary that was the “Cause”. And now it is time for the “Effect”. The next available option to reach my destination - a flight, my horror, the nightmare coming true. I am no superman, no flyer by any chance. The fear of height comes to picture here. All those avoiding the insane rides of amusement parks, skipping mountain trips over beaches went in vain, in the deep drains.

So here I am sitting at the Bangalore Airport in the middle of the night, thinking when will I actually react, when the flight starts running on the runway or when it actually takes off, or will it be when the plane actually reach the peak height. But what the hell why am I thinking so much, I can see a lot of sane minds sitting along with me without such thoughts and just waiting to fly up in the air. Now I realize what is the damn point of wearing a superman t-shirt when you can’t even fly in a plane. Anyways if you are reading this then I reached my destination safely. But still can’t figure out how can 2mins cost you so much.
