My Dads Day
This si about my dad's day when we had rain & flood in our city and i was stuck in office and my mom was all alone at home without any power and elecriticty.
Dad called up mom tuesday 26th july,2005 at 4.30pm and he said he was leaving office for home and he did and thts it tht was last call from him and after tht we were never able to hear from him again till wednesday morning at around 11.00pm.
so dad left his office at 4.30pm and went to bus stop to catch bus for railway station to board train but bus never came so he started walk and as he went ahead he started to see traffic jam and more traffic jam and not moving traffic on highway , water was clogged on highway till his waist and only way to reach station was to pass through it , since railway station was on other side of highway. but somehow he managed to walk on divider of road which is between 2 road but still he got wet and walked thru col water for almost 30mins before reaching railway station and there he got train and dad got seat to sit and he was happy he made it on time(it was 6.00pm by tht time) but then later on he came to know tht train has been there since 3.30pm and had not moved since tht time. so dad was already late, since there were very less chances of train moving, it had not moved since 3.30pm :(. dad sat there and so did many other ppl in hope tht it wud start and everybody would get back home safely and be with their respective families. But tht dint happen dad and other ppl slept in train whole nite. in nite he did come out on platform to buy something to eat but by the time everything was exhausted and nothin was avaliable, so he had to sleep hungry stomach and so did many ppl.in morning at 7.30am he woke up and rushed to office again water was still there in highway he got wet again till waist and then took some shower and had nice breakfast and lunch, till tht time telephone lines were dead and mobile phone network were jam, so he could contact me or mom and then at 11.00am he manage to give call to mom somehome and finally tht time mom took sigh of relief and so did I.
man tht 18hrs were like hell for me & my mom. we knew dad has been around since long time and he has exprience some kind of travel like this in past, every monsoon once trains surely get stuck but nothin like this, if any of u have bot pics to see have a look and u wud realise, mumbai city received rain most then other place in world in 48hrs.
then in evening at around 4.30pm he left again rails were working a bit so he left and caught train and reached home. :). love u dad, missed u very much and mom u too love u mom.
now time for my story. i m tried like hell now may be tomm
