Kaash aisa harroz ho...

Evening time... Stepped out of office and just as she turned across the street, the silver grey mini bus pranced into sight near the horizon of the highway intersection...

This mini bus was sort of a tempo; a lil low height design for the door and the bus ceiling.. Inside it has two rows of seats: behind the driver, there are two seaters and then on the other side of the gangway there is a row of single seaters.

She thanked her luck to find the carefree vehicle in ...which sometimes would make her wait a whole half hour before apparating.

And sprinted towards the bus in all excitement.. and astonisighly was the first to click the door lock open and enter the magical four-wheeler. Took the single seater right in front of the entrance...

"Kya Madam.. aaj sab log kaha hai? harroz kaafi bheed rehti hai bus ke liye?", driver chacha noted...

"Haan aa jayenge...Aaj pehli baar mujhe bus ke liye rukna nahi pada... hehehehe..."
 
Then she got engrossed in the songs and breakneck chatter on her mobile radio and looking out of the window...while waiting for her joyride to fill up and get going!

She loved the window seat in any vehicle... be it this bus or even a plane!! And was happy coz she got her prized seat today...

"kaash aisa har roz ho...", she pondered to herself and smiled...

Ten minutes elapsed... some more ppl poured in in ones, twos and larger numbers..

and in a few more minutes the gangway was also full of standees...

Door closed and driver chacha was getting ready to begin the ride... 

Just then, he saw a chap running towards the bus stop as if his life was stuck in that bus and thus thot to wait a lil more..

Door opened again...  

"Thuddddddddddddd!!!!" Chap banged his head to the top of the entrance in the hurry to get in... 

The loud thud right in front of her eyes distracted her from her immersion in the radiowaves and she reacted spontaneously,
" Ouch! That would have hurt!!! Gosh ... u alright?"

He looked up, trying to catch his breath and simultaneously rubbing the spot on his crown like shinshan hit with a pan by his mom... 

And then smiled sheepishly...
"Well everything seems fine i guess... although i think i can see a star right now in front of me!"

Taken aback, she uttered...
"Yeah rite... I also can see many of those stars hovering over your head like bees around a bee-hive!!"

Hehehehehehe.... Peals of laughter in the whole bus... 

"kaash aisa har roz ho...", he thought to himself and smiled...
