MOTHERLAND CALLING - IV


As soon as we entered the plane, we were given Times Of India and served with candies and chocolates. After almost a year I was reading TOI as a hard copy and hence was pleasedJ I got more pleased to see that I have got a window seat. The panoramic view of London city, when the plane took off, is hard to describe in words. It was very beautiful. Then they started serving snacks, juices, tea, coffee and other beverages. In every one hour they use to serve something which keeps you busy and on the same hand makes your journey enjoyable. Lunch was also awesome. Jet Airways also has a good collection of some 20 Bollywood & Hollywood movies from which you can select and watch whichever movie you like. I watched three of them and that’s how I didn’t realize that the flight was of 8 hours. As soon as we reached Bombay airport, at around 12:30AM (IST), my eyes started searching for my Brother who was suppose to come at the airport to pick me up. Although I knew that visitors are not allowed in the security lounge I was still looking for him…then after waiting for almost one and half hour…I got my luggage, did all the security checks and rushed towards the gate with trolley in my hands. I was still searching for him in such a huge crowd near the gate when a voice came from behind….’Nimisha’….I turned around and there saw my brother standing with a flower bouquet in his hand. I can’t describe how I felt at this very moment. I was not able to control myself and hence broke down in his arms.
