Shiny's Mom

It was soooooooo long back when I was heading back home from chennai. I have realized whenever wherever I go lonely, God will send some Angel for me :) And that was an afternoon, I came with my big baggy to tambaram bus stand alone. I was standing there blinking at everything. Then came a bus and I wondered whether this will go to my city.. I already had an experience of getting on a bus that covers many places and finally gets to my home and got down immediately so was just a bit thinking about that and at last made my mind and took my bag and went to the conductor and asked him about the route. He was so in a hurry to get me in, than in explaining me. But I was very patiently asking him about the direct route, on noting this, the driver answered me yes its direct route and you can get in. I then got in the bus.

It was almost crowded and Thank God, only one place left near a woman who was 3 seats away from the driver. I spotted the place and went near her and asked, "Is someone coming here?". She answered, "No, sit here, with a smile". I placed my bag above and sat near her. She smiled at me and I smiled back. Then she asked me where I'm going. I said, "To my home". She then inquired why I'm here for chennai. After a little chats about why I came to chennai and where I stayed and the cost of living every month in chennai, she then told that she belongs to Nagerkovil and came alone here to see her daughter, Shiny who has been married to a guy in chennai and she has one more daughter who is studing. She said that Shiny was recently married and lives in chennai and she also said that cost of living is greater in chennai and its harder to save here. I smiled back.

Later unnale unnale was played in bus, the movie I loved to the core. I saw the intro and she saw me. Sensing that she was noticing me, I turned to her and she smilingly asked, "you like that movie?". I answered with a smile, "Yes, more like a psychology". She smiled back and was talking about how hard she found searching a boy for her daughter nowadays. I smiled back. She then was saying her husband and his work and about her daughter and his husband and his work and about her second daughter. I was listening to all that. By the while I was surprised to experience such a trust from a stranger. This happens to me all the time and almost everywhere. Everyone who is close to me and who is a complete stranger, shares every personal details to me. 

Once when this happened when I was sitting in my route bus, a woman from a little town came and sat near me and she was saying all her details, the family problems to me. She was there for getting a gold chain for her daughter who is conceived and that gold chain was compelled to be given by her son-in-law. She looks so poor and she herself don't have a gold thaali. She was telling how hard she collected a sum of money by even putting some of her old gold and got this gold chain for her daughter. Last time when she had came to buy something she was having a piece of old gold in her purse and she lost that in the meanwhile returning home. But she was saying me how much money she has now in her purse :)I smilingly said, "You should not say this to anybody". She smiled at me back and then was speaking about her family problems..

When I returned home I said this to my dad and dad said, "They trust you so much to share everything" I asked, "How come they trust me she didn't even saw me before?" My dad said laughing, "You have something in you that makes everyone spells everything out, even I do it many times, that's why I don't come to talk to you". I laughed back and left the topic.

But then Shiny's mom was about to eat which she had prepared and brought. She asked me, "Would you like to eat now else we shall eat later?". I said, "You take it, I'll reach by an hour and mom will be waiting for me with her cooking". She smiled and said, "Ok then I'll take later". I said, "Its ok, you take it now, you have a long way to go". She smiled back and she was taking it while I was enjoying the movie. Right then my place came and I waved her a bye and got down..

A lone journey but made special in meeting such Angels. And these were the moments that makes me believe in Angels can meet us and can be anywhere.. I haven't felt lonely when I was all alone..!! Thanks to GOD and Thanks to the Angels..!!
