In A TrAFfiC jAm……….

A

s usual the day had begun and I had my morning breakfast, Traditional Idli Sambar with Chutney, assembled the jumbled gadgets, and stepped into my boots…. started towards my Jaan, Hero Honda Splendor+… Lots of things in mind…. Most of which were useless,did not bother me, as this was routine. I kicked the starter to ride ahead, accelerating the right, clutching the left… towards the four lane Chennai roads.

Youth in within me was awaken by the strong beautiful road, and the light breeze which made the temp awesome. Zoooooooming the accel… I continued, crossed 2 signals, unfortunately my zooming did not help me to cross the third since there was a Jam already. Well, nobody can be blamed for this, as traffic jams are inevitable part of Journey in the city.

Sun, over the head had fully unvaled from the duppatta of clouds… and was beaming with the glow. I saw around, and in no minutes understood that this is going to be a long Jam. Hence lowered my helmet over to the Petrol tank… and started to scrutinize my round.

Well, the shouting of localites ahead took few seconds for my cerebrum to analyze, there was an accident. People were shouting, as usual 2 parties to watch out the Cock fight, a set of mediators to console both…. This did not attract me so I turned to my right. Autorikshaw, filled with tiny tots, dressed in White n blue uniforms, attracted me. Keenly, as I noticed …. I caught the glimpses of 2 children fighting within themselves. Who knows why…MiGht be FoR a ChocoLate, for a pencil, for a rubber… or for a side seat... what else do kids fill in their world!!! Remembered my days to school….

The, brand Logo behind rickshaw… yes!! The Mercedes Benz... I saw into the window panes… Driver dressed in White n white n white, right behind him in back seat, kid dressed in White n blue… as if a parrot in the Cage, was peeping towards the Auto, to see what his folks did..?!.. Bechara, Had no such fights, since his Father wants Dignity over Childhood!!!

The footpath besides caught my attention, people sleeping... no parts of body uncovered… felt as if there was no Sun over their head. Thought to myself… being under a roof, I don’t even sleep properly for the reason, fan lacks air... sometimes even fan gives more…Hats off India... For these off springs who sleep even at day Light bright!!!! Yea sun was pretty bright now! Drops of sweat dripped ova my Pants from forehead….

No signs of changeover by Traffic light…. Now it was sure…. Some Political Elephant is to pass the street... No movements for half an hour more….!!!!!! Turning to the right, made me bliss…. Pretty Barbie Gal... On her scootey Pep+…. Nothing else to see… since she was covered from head to the foot… A Covering to the head in brown that covered even … hopefully the beautiful white face... Black goggles over her attraction... Salwaar in Green and white… short sleeved… no chance to see her arms, covered even that with white gloves…Cursed in within me…. Why the beautiful things in world do get covered... I know this is the technique how they keep up attractions in within admirers like us... IdIoTs.!!! ;) However she did not even bother to see towards me.

Hey!!!! What’s that…? The scene in the next car made such screaming in my skull!!!!.... Smooching couples!!! Hellers, they were doing it even in this busy Jam... As if they were not a part of this world... and gliding in the world of romance….. Driver in front was reading newspaper as if “chaltahe yr!!these are common things why do you worry?!!”  Poor guys what’s wrong in it!!!! They don wanna waste time!!! Think so……. Was morning na... so dint focus into that too much! I changed my view……without letting myself nervs!!

Saw, a middle class family… on a Bike.. making it a capacity of car…. Head of family, the father being driver, his first son right above his lap and over petrol tank… Sat behind his wife, the princess... with a Lovley kid in her arms. Rest didn’t attract me.. As much did the Baby…. Even after all the world, busy in its own business… the Baby was creating its own world within it… enthu to see the diff folks... sometimes it Laughed, sometimes clapped… sometimes widened the eyes….Very impertinent on things.. Baby was turning to and fro, without wasting moments to capture …..!!!!!

Beep!!! Beeep!!! Beep!!!!! Beep!!!!!!!.... 8 cars back to back crossed the street, no speed limits, since its INDIA…. Brought back my consciousness saying I’m struck up in a traffic jam…. For the progression of 8 cars in tremendous speed…  I had to wait for 45min!!!!!! Shall I say Heads off or heads down!!!!!! Well I didn’t bother… as I wanted to see back the baby… but where I can…. Vehicles behind me started to say… Pomp!!!! Pomp!!! Keen!!! Konk!!! Wonk!!!!!! Boom!!! SuuuM!!!! Keee!!!!!!!........

I started kicking my kicker!!!! Hell it’s not starting… Kick!! Kick!! Kick!!!!!!!!....... Ouch… somebody kicked on my Ass!!!! Heard a voice shouting, “Saale... Nik lakkera ittnda yank dayeg Kick korpe … saaav, podu saila marre, Jappera budu”….!!!!( If u wanna get up why the hell are u kick me, get lost, let me to sleep!!!!)… Guy in the other bed shouted at me!!! Oh god!!! I was dreaming A Traffic Jam!!!! Is that no terrific!!!

My hands moved over the bed to see what the time is!!! Already 6... A message in the inbox… as usual opened it!!... “Gudnit k***m*…Chwe………” so it read… this is best part of life… seeing the, pretty message of pretty people, @ pretty hours…. Makes like lullaby!!!!!! Turned to right…. Ova bed… to sleep back!!!!!!!
