"You go. I'll be at the Bhopal airport before you even reach there."
Shrithik said to Sameera, keeping her luggage above her seat.

Sameera sat down on the seat as she was blocking the way, and then looked at Shrithik and spoke

"But why can't you come with me? This seat is big enough for us to share. Or tell me I'll book another one for you."

He smiled at her and kissed her forehead.
"Don't worry sweetheart. I'll be there. Really. I've got some things to do. Bye."

Sameera couldn't say anything as suddenly he was not there. She really couldn't believe that he can just teleport.

She sighed and leaned back in her seat. She closed her eyes, hoping that the next two hours pass peacefully.

When she was coming to the airport Shrithik suddenly said that he'll come afterwards. She was confused as to why? But she was still thinking that he might not turn up.

She didn't know when she slept. But she woke up when the person beside her shook her.

"Sweetheart! Wake up sweetheart."

She jerked up and looked beside her, ready to scold that stranger. But that stranger took her breath away.

"Old man? When did you get here?"

He grinned.

"The moment you fell asleep. You know I forgot to pack my clothes."

He said rubbing his neck and she grinned.

"Okay. Let's go."
She said and stood up and started making her way to the exit.

"Your bags?"

"You are bringing them right?"
She asked turning her head to the side.

"Oh yeah. I'm your coolie right?"
She grinned and continued walking. Shrithik followed behind her.

She booked a cab and asked the driver to drive to the railway station.

When they were at railway station, waiting for the train, he asked

"Why here?"

"Because there is not an airport in Hoshangabad and it's a three hour bus ride from here to there. Train is just an hour."

She said and immediately the speaker announced the arrival of the train.

They sat in their seat and Sameera sighed.

"Finally. I'm going back."

Shrithik smiled and looked out of the window. Soon he felt her in his arms and he hugged her. And soon they both were asleep.

"दीदी! आपका स्टेशन आ गया।"
(Transliteration: Didi! Aapka station aa gaya.
Translation: Sister! Your station has come.")

A boy said loudly and they both got startled. It was for Shrithik's grip that she was not on the floor.

"Uh.....Thanks bro."
