God Must Be Crazy - 10

Stepped out on the platform with lots of confidence and wonder how big this city could be. The first step was not much noted as I have already been to Trichy! Still I could feel her steps in the same platform. It was not the same city when I first visited with my dad. My father seemed to be the world for me, for the first time I seem to guide myself. I missed my dad but it was better missing him than searching her with him! Keeping all such memoirs aside, I stepped out of the railway station. 

First thing I noted was that, there are many churches which were an ultimate contradiction to the Madurai city culture. The next thing is privatized city buses! All drivers were mad over the roads and no one on road even cared their funny driving skills. A bus crossed violently when I was standing on a road to cross it, with just a few inches gap to my shoulders. My heart missed a beat. I wonder was my life that much cheap to that crap drivers!

Brain, “Theva ilama vandhu mattikitomo!!?”

I looked up the sky which was a usual practice for me whenever I think I was in need of confidence. This time it was ultimate and I could notice the “Ganesh Temple” usually called the ‘Malaikottai’. Though God is crazy, he is with me still. My first trip climbing up the short cliff with my dad came just as a flash, as a cool breeze swept me off in the hot sun!

The only contact person available there was the Trichy guy who studied with Aaradhana. I just wanted him to say, I have come to Trichy just to see her. But he was fortunate enough to miss my call. He would have really thought am blind and mad if I have said him my current reason and situation.

To my relief a bus came with the exact area name in its name board. Thank god. I took a ticket to the last stop and started searching for her through the window which I know has only 0.001% chance of finding her, but my heart instructed me not to miss even that meager chance!

A Church! Hurray – heart beat faster now. I had a feeling near equal to a huge success! My peripherals directly responded to the hearts wishes and got down from the bus and started walking directly towards the entrance. Most people were walking out of the church which would have been a wonderful sight if I am not into the currently assigned process! To be true, I hardly find girls who are prettier than her!

“She was not there!”

Feeling pity over my mini-failure, I started off in another bus in the same direction. Soon after, brain won a battle over resounding heartbeats and screamed,

“Hey… Check out!”

God is Gonna be Crazyyyyy!
