The BUDDHA came out from his seat & walked towards us full of anger saying समझ क्या रहे हो तुम मुझे, जानते हो मुझे तुम, कौन हु मैं, we were jst staring dat BUDDHA's heavy face & he continued threatening us बताता हु तुम्हे, कोण हु मैं, ऐरा-गैरा समझा हैं क्या ! he took his cell out of his pocket, opened the flap & called sm1 frm his contacts list speaking हाँ, मैं "x" जगह पोहोचने वाला हु, पोहोंचो जरा वहा, बताता हु इन्हें आज(don't remember the name of next stop, so used x) ! we all were scared, were just guessing if he called some kind of GUNDES & अब तो बोहोत पिटने वाले हैं ! He dialed again some number speaking kinda normally saying ये कुछ लड़के मेरी लड़की को छेड रहे हैं, इस स्टाप पे मिलये मुझे ! we were just scared, watz gonna happen next, if we r gonna get beaten or hez going to handover us to COPS !! their also we knew COPS r gonna beat like Animal ! Their Mayank spoke up as soon as his call ended, Sori uncle गलती हुई, हम आपकी बेटी को नहीं छेड़ रहे थे, हम तो बस टिकेट काट रहे थे ! & Dat KHISKA HUA BUDDHA wasn't evn ready to hear him, replying हाँ मैं सिखाता हु आज तुम्हे, कैसे काट-ते हैं टिकेट !! now, there was no way left in front ! we decided to RUN on the very next stop....knowing there could be his GUNDES standing there to wash us up like clothes ! but we were left with no option in hand ! but BUDDHA was smarter then us, continuing his threats smthing clicked his mind & he shouted दरवाजा बंद करो, आज जाने नहीं दूंगा इन्हें ! & he came towards door standing on last STAIR of the bus ! the bus was so RUSHY, we cudn't hv made from front door even !! evry1 in bus was watching the scene ! Both the conductors, along with Driver & a guy aged 26-30 were continuosly supporting the BUDDHA from front, shouting.....हाँ पकडो इन्हें आज & all !!
we just wished if some earth-quake comes & this bus don't move ahead & we runout from here anyhow !! here GOD listened us & it was a Red-light !! Buddha steeped out of the bus trying to close the door....we were just like trapped & had no option left with us rather then CUTTING the trap hard !! Now Mayank standing on last STAIR of the bus as BUDDHA stepped out of the bus was requesting him, अंकल, please जाने दो ! but buddha wasn't ready to hear & was trying hard to close the door !! Now, Ankush standing on 2nd step & Ankit & Yogi on 3rd where Ashish & me were standing on main floor !! hereby something clicked in ANkit's mind & he askd me त्यागी, मार लात दरवाज़े में, i asked him तू मार, where he said मेरी किक नहीं चलेगी, तू मार ! i made up mah mind to open d door in a single kick so dat we can make our way out & in dat rush i pulled mah leg up & tried to chase the door but wasn't able tooas it was far & dey all wer standing on stairs ! i just placed mah leg on Mayank's shoulder somehow & asked ANkush & ANkit to move to right as i was about to kick the door hard ! they moved aside, seeing dis Ashish also....who ws standing aside me ! I pulled mahself back to gather power & kicked the door hard on the edge as it by the force it Break & go out or move aside as it was a sliding door !! bt to break it up i need to practise for 2-3 years soo it just got opened ! where malik shouts Mayank भाग बहेन च..., & Mayank jumped frm bus & started running, Buddha tried to catch him standing there only just took 1 step towards him but he was fast enough & Ankush jumped & ran from his back as he had moved a step ahead for catching Mayank ! it was Ankit's turn & he jumped but BUDDHA was ready this time & caught his hand ! Yogi jumped & ran as BUDDHA wasn't able to catch him......as Ankit's hand was in his hand ! now it was my turn ! me & Ashish jumped together to the left & ran a few steps & i noticed we 2 were just running in this direction rest all in RIGHT side ! i shouted अबे बाकी सब उधर हैं, चल उधर ! we had enough of space behind the bus to run in opposite direction & we did the same !! As we crossed the bus from RIGHT i just turned back to see watz d scene their with Buddha & saw Ankit's wrist was still in Buddhe's hand ! i just resisted mah legs lookin back only & thought of going to him as i cudn't have left him ! den thought अगर गया तो, गुंडों से बी पिटेगा & पुलिस से भी !
but it was ANKIT(घर से साथ जाते थे, कॉलेज पूरा दिन साथ, same seat प बैठते थे, प्रक्टिकाल्स साथ, sessionals साथ, even our roll no.'s were 79-80, soo एक्साम्स में बी साथ) how cud hv i left him !! just thought मरेंगे तो साथ आज, bt cannot leave him like this !! was standing about 150m of the bus, ran towards both of them(ANkit & buddha) ! As i reached them, saw Ankit was trying to pull his hand ! mean dey were just about fighting, nothing came in mind, went running....clutched the right hand fingers & it was BUDDHE'S Left cheek wich was visible to me just like an open field & hit his FACE from left with full power ! Malik's hand was released as BUDDHE's hand reached his own FACE due to pain !! It was a powerful punch i felt, as BUDDHA moved 2-3 steps towards left making a sound "AHHHH......."here we both started running d opposite side, the side where others ran & i turned back & saw BUDDHA was running faster den both of us, towards us only & i felt like we'll be caught in not more den 2 mints !! it ws Horrible thinking to get caught as i knew this time, hez gonna get us TORTURED hard !! it was a red light ahead about 300-400m !! bus was standing at that distance from RED LIGHT !! we crossed the CROSS-ROADS running at the very centre withour even caring of Accident (it wasn't possible for us to watch all the sides,their were eight roads, 2-each side & we cudn't hv wait) just ran 100m & tuned back to c BUDDHA & saw him walking back towards Bus as his Daughter was sittign in the bus, he turned back & we got our life saved !!thereafter turned to d extreme left, ran about 500-600m & met the rest 2 ! dey were Yogi & ANkush !! worried if BUDDHA comes here too !! just found sm Residential colony their ! entered that (it was our pet trick to run in residential colonies, aftr beating Driver & conductor & get all the glases broken of the bus, in regular days of college) ! here too we were worried ! found a broken stool lying aside wall under the building, sat their discussing, where we are, where & how to go home now ! Yogi took his mobile out of his pocket, saw the cell info & told itz "x" place(x---> don't remember the name of place, soo....) Ankush suddenly asked ! अभी भी पकडे गए तो ?? पुलिस में दे-देगा बुड्ढा ! we 3 agreed & suddenly i asked for Yogi's mobile as he was the only1 among us having a MOBILE in his pocket ! we 3 din't had !! he asked क्यू ? for which i replied मेरे मौसा जी हैं देल्ही पुलिस में, अगर फसे तो उन्हें फोन करूँगा, बच तो जायेंगे ! i called at Home's landline........my sister picked the call, asked her for MAUSA JI's No, she questioned क्यों ? & i just shouted on her नंबर माँगा हैं नंबर दे, फालतू सवाल नहीं कर ! she felt bad but den gave me the no.....we got dat no. saved in Yogi's cell !! iT wAs a Gud luck for us !! we did not got caught, called the other two where Ashish hasd phone ! they told they left catching some bus from their ! on asking told they are near INDIA GATE here ANkush says ! अरे अब बंगला सहे जाने से तो गए, चल इंडिया गेट ही चलते हैं ! we4 on shouting, fighting, discussing agreed & went India Gate ! where we met the other two even, as they were waiting for us even ! we were talking the craps abut BUDDHA only ! there-after we saw some Govt. school boys of U.P. or Haryana surrounding an Australian girl as she was getting PIC clicked ! D gal was B.ful having Golden Hairs wearing a Red Caargo Jeans with MAST fitting & a cream coloured top having a traveller's bag tied to her waist ! Here Mayank shouts, देख मैं बात करू इससे for which Yogi replies बात करने को क्या भगवान् हैं ये ! लड़की ही तो हैं ! hereafter we all started laughing at him........Mayank supporting his previous words now says, अबे नहीं, देख मस्ती करता हु, मस्त बात करूँगा इससे ! for which i replied, taunting him मस्त क्या, Girlfriend बना लेगा तू इसे ! देख हम बात करते हैं !thereafter deciding all not to go togeder me & malik went to her !! & Bade her ! hiii ! she smiled & replied back ! here i was talking to her...........askd*u r from.......*Australia....*ohh kkk !! soo howz India, u like it*yaa !!
