Reminiscing - Part 1 - Lost & Found
After holidaying at kodaikanal I was on my way back to chennai on the train with my family. I was just 4 years old. The train stopped at madurai station and they all got down leaving me with my surrogate mother(my chitti). She was busy reading a book and didn't notice me disappearing behind my mother and here unfolds the chilling moment of my life. I was lost in the crowded station. Only when they were back in the compartment did they realise that i was lost. Did they panic i dunno. But atleast they were kind enough to search for me which they might regret now. They kept asking everyone they met in the station whether they saw a child going by alone. And yeah the climax is predictable i was found minutes before the train was about to leave the station. Sounds cinematic?anyways this is true. An announcement was made by the railway officer that they there is a missing child in their waiting room. I was sitting in the railway officer's room happily watching tv without any worries that i was lost. And thus ends the happy reunion with my family. (Well i have finished this so crisp because i seriously dont remember anything about this incident but vaguely remember going behind my mother without herself knowing in the station.)
