Its 1245hrs.. When is the train??.. Enquired.. 0230hrs... fuck.. too long.. hungry us.. frustated us... poor us.. if had something then it was only 'time'.. So much time..

Dont get out via rails... Come over the bridge.. 'RULES'..
Dont cross the wall climbing.. 'RULES'...
Dont get in between the ticket line.. 'RULES'...

time passed.. thinking of rules.. in every step we took... We felt really like heaven when the ticket was actually of Rs 7/- which we thought of Rs 9/-.. 'FOUR' saved...
'Twenty Three' left..


In search of cheaper and heavy food.. Sagar and I.. 'Banana'.. 'OMG'..


"Nai yaar, jaisi kismat hai na.. Yeh toh saale kache hi nikalenge.."
"Ha yaar!.. kuch aur dekhte hai"..

'Samosa'
"Nai yaar, mehenga ho jaega.."

Search continued.. Meanwhile.. Sagar reminded me about his argument with that so called 'tempowala' at Dhanbad staton for mere Rs5/-.. Which were now like a lottery for us..
'Litti chokha'...
(Its a local special..We get it at Dhanbad at Rs4/- per piece)

"Kaise diye bhaiya litti.?."
"Teen rupaiya piece sir.."
Wow.. that really pleased our ears..It was really very much non-eatable type.. In every other case.. rejected..But..but...

"Eleven left".. now what.. It was not worth eating.. but was like we can spend around 1hour..Its 0120hrs.. Left for station..

Think Suresh..think..
clicked..

"Sir, I have an idea.."
"Should I recharge your mobile phone"..

"Call advocate..I he agrees then no problems"
"Okay,sir.."

I called.. pleaded.. he agreed..then what.. I left from there.. Called Manoj.. our recharger... asked him the same..
Sagar was outside still.. When I called.. Bank!.. was were he was..
Even after knowing that there's no hope without Pass-Book..He failed as he supposed to do..



He came back within 15 minutes.. It was 1205hrs.. He had Rs85/- before leaving.. now.. left with.. only thirty five... Rs50/- spent while his treasure hunt..



Hungry us.. Ticket to go back.. what to do now?..just thirty five.. even finding a 5 rupee coin in any corner,.. of wallet would be... BONANZA.. It was okay.. we were giving each other courage,...

we even dint knew cost of ticket..
"Chalo pehle ticket lete hai , agar kuch bacha to kha lenge kuch..!"

6th continuation

The path was really baulky...problems.. every instance.. were growing..
We were very hungry.. ready to eat any kind of ordinary food... even the most hated rolls of our mess.. would prove .. great..like lovely mom-made rajma-chaval...



"Sir, we have 285.."
"So what.?.."

The option then.. ATM.. search for an ATM started.. Sagar went for almost a treasure hunt.. reached the only ATM in Barakar.. which was not working.. Gosh!!..

"Go to ATM at 10km across the bridge at Chirkunda.."

Sagar had no other option.. reached.. dont know whose face I saw in the morning..
still not successfull...NO LINK...
He called... I tried to convince that cruel man.. who during this time was not seeming so cruel.. was talking about.. movies.. hollywood.. spiderman.. etc... gave me cold water...




"Apna mobile rakh jao,.." I thought about this.. I was not agreed to come to this place ever again.. it was obligatory to find some other solution.. but what.. ??.. ??...
