Scars Remain
This is an incident I heard not the niceties of life but hard realities like the darker side of the moon.It happened in a train that coming from Mangalore to Coimbatore and Zaria was the girl in her teens .
She is a fair, good looking girl and was accompanied by her grand parents. They were taking her back to her parents and then she was to go to Mumbai to do College in the subject
she loved to study. She did her schooling in her grand parents place so was full of enthusiasm and jumpy in her childish ways.
Two persons got in a tall, dark, powerf ully built man in his fifties and a girl short and stubby in her early twenties They had their seats opposite to Zaria s
the girl in few minutes stretch herself on the seat and was soon asleep. The Man seemed jovial and in just an hour won over her grandparents with a talk about religions as he himself had belonged to a sect of a church and was himself a well lettered Man .
The four of them were engaged in conversation and Zaria all enthusiastic began to make her point about her beliefs and her intentions of doing some sort of help to her society and the like .
A little later Zaria s grand Mother felt drowsy as time was half past ten laid herself down in the side lower berth just opposite theirs and in seconds went off to sleep. Her grandpa very light sleeper and a late sleeper too excused himself and went and laid in the lower berth in the next portion as theybwere old some kind young gentlman exchanged the place but he was in the next compartment...
