That common mistake...

It was just another day for her but what an exciting one. She is quite careful otherwise but may be this was not her day. She was on her way to office when while waiting for the metro at the station she just went and sat on the bench. The scorching heat having no mercy on her she was sweating alot. She just grabbed her handkerchief from her handbag to wipe her face. Aaahh...That was some relief. And the metro arrived. She hurriedly got up and got into the metro.

Managed to get a seat in the metro which is usually a big task in the morning office timings. It was then that she realized something was missing and oops... it was her phone..that too the one she purchased just few days back... that went missing. Tensed she just got down at the next station and took the reverse metro. Thinking all the while that she must have left it at the bench where she sat while waiting. When she reached there at the same place praying hard just get her phone back but all in vain. It was gone.

Losing a mobile is quite common with the girls but it can be as stressful as a final examination. She then borrowed a phone from one of the fellow passengers to call on her number. And as expected it was switched off. Quite angry on her own blunder she went to the metro customer care center to explain her situation and seek some help. But...these customer care centers do not actually care for it. She wanted to get a complain registered to which the officials replied that metro thefts complaints are registered at only one police station that too in Sarita Vihar. And what raised her tempers really high was when she was refused to view the CCTV coverage. She just couldn't stand this refusal. She argued that what is the use of their opening a customer center when they cannot entertain customer's complaints. She then got to view the CCTV coverage but was of no use.

With a lost heart she went to the police station for the very first time in her life to lodge an FIR. What a weird atmosphere there it was she realized. She came home with her head just bursting out with pain. But then something more was still there for her in the store for the day. She receives a call at home on mom's phone from her sister. Her sister  had some good news for her. Her sis when called up on her number a man answered who said that he had found the phone at the station which went off due to low battery so he brought it home. He gave his address from where the phone can be collected. It was actually a relief to her.

Hats off to this happy go lucky girl that is my Sis in law. But the story has something more to it.....

that will be continued in the next blog with a lovely message.
