Well, it all started when I decided to get out of my bed at 2 in morning to go beyond my limits and zone . I was weeping because everything that happened with me all this years didn't stayed so i packed my bags and got of my home secretly, i walked on empty dark roads , unsafe and unheard of noise so i walked and walked and reached railway station took whatever train was standing on platform and slept on nearest seat covering myself with a blanket as i was so tired it wasn't difficult going to sleep. The morning i woke up with a noise of chatting and laughing ,a family was sitting eating breakfast they gave me strange look as if i was some alien but i smiled and some lady in front of me offered a vada but i denied i said i would take some later and i got off from seat and reached to nearest gate of compartment of train , it was so noisy because of wind and moving wheels of train but the view slienced it all sun rising and greeny was beautiful not knowing where i was but it was calming I got back to my seat after for a while and staring at the sun i saw the seats were empty and a packed home made food with a smily made on top and realised they must have got off , i was happy to see generous move i took the packed plate and bags and got off too. The place was nice , no hustle no vehicles and horns and beauty of mountains and chill air . I walked off to a tea shop at the corner of road and ordered a tea with some biscuits . I asked the shopkeeper "what is this place ?" He said "madam ji , you seem to be new, it's kullayam a district in tamil nadu " then i realised i was really far from home , a average middle class girl, who has never seen own hometown is so far it made me scared but granny use to say whatever is happening if it's in your favour so good , if not then it's better than something great is coming . So i accepted it and paid some penny i had from my salary i made from teaching tutions in 12th grade . The shopkeeper said I must see the place down the road it has a steepy hill but has a great view i was like okay let's check that out too , i walked and walked and saw a same hill he told it was difficult to climb but my eyes wanted to see what earth have made for humans , I climbed and saw what he was talking about he wasn't lying it was really magnificent the hills covered in fog and air was chilling and serene it made me count my every breath I could take forever . Sat there for a while and left a note on tree for whoever next would come and see this view and again down the road i walked , i was tired but wanted to explore and finally saw a village it was lighted up with lights like there was some celebration i asked where they were going , the lady passing me said that their daughter is getting married , and I thought it was the perfect opportunity to see e what a village wedding is like and also it was about food i asked same lady that could i attend it , she was happy to invite she gave a saree to change into and entered into wedding , it was decorated with flowers and lights and dancing was going on they dragged me to dance with them so i did and enjoyed after a long while. I ate with the bride's family and noticed the groom's family was the same i met on train, i went to them with food and they noticed me and laughed and hugged me i was happy see them too. the families later started with ceremonies and got busy,i went in a room to tie my saree which was getting loose and suddenly light got off and heard a noise behind me ....
