Chennai buses! Nothing like them. . .
It was a lazy tuesday afternoon and i decided to meet friends to while away time..destination spencers..had fun..gobbled subway sandwich.. And finally decided to head home...that's how pri and me landed up in one of the seemingly less crowded buses at the tvs bus stop..Happy that we were atleast once in a while opting for a cheaper way of getting home, we were blissfully talking stuff bout the fun we had with friends when in a fraction of a second the bus was swelling with people..where did all of them come from??!!!!..there was no time to think..ahhhh!... someone gave me a wonderful push from behind that set me go hittin the rods in the bus.."what in the hell is happening pri," i screamed..Pri was now a few metres away from me and i knew we were stuck amidst a huge crowd of people who wil not mind standing on us throughout the journey! It was only mount road and we were to head to kodambakkam. Not knowing what to do i told pri to pass the money for the ticket as the conductor was kilometres away from us. Whatever said and done i was terrified of inspectors and the humiliation of gettin caught ticketless! But pri looked helpless at me with the cash in her hand. On askin her she said that people were not passing the money towards the conductor, not even the ones who were sitting! That was it..My bp shot up..! With the tamil i knew i blasted everyone in the bus and in seconds money was passin from every hand i saw! Pri congratulated me. Proud of myself i tried to wriggle my way a little more towards pri cos i could see her troubled face from amidst the junglees. Fearing that some loser was digging up at her i asked her what it was but poor pri could not tel but i could see her bp shooting up too! In minutes she let out to the guy next to her in the tamil she knew! Lols... it was me congratulating her now. I told her we were getting down in the next stop. "What bout the tickets da", pri asked innocently. "Damn the tickets", i yelled back. And in the next stop we fought our way out of the bus. We were speeding homewards in an auto in minutes! Chennai buses! nothing like 'em! but pri! hi fi! chow!
