It appears that the child has completed his Vada Pav. It was a little gloomy, and Keshav noticed the child playing on the beads of drops that fell from the window. Keshav asked him if he wanted another one, to which his mother said, "No sir, that's enough; I am grateful for that Vada Pav." and smiled. "You were just as amazed as I was when you saw the Vada Pav, do you like it?" inquired the child. Keshav, who was already overjoyed thinking about his old memories, grinned and remarked, "I always loved them as much as you love the rain."😉
It was really a beautiful evening, Keshav having a little conversation with the kid and his mother, silently noticed that there was something quite unusual...... The train was moving a bit faster and people stood up from their seats. The luggage above fell off and the mother holded her kid tightly, screaming on a loud voice................... Keshav couldn't figure out what was happening around and everything was different as everyone heard a looooooong horn from the train..........
Everyone was racing to the windows because something had happened outdoors! Aside from the horn, he could hear people yelling and shoving each other, but the train had not stopped and was still travelling at full speed. Not only did he notice people hurrying around him, but he also noticed others rushing from other compartments.😳 The rain was falling heavily, his vision was fuzzy, and he noticed he was being stomped by everyone out there! On that rush, he actually collapsed.......
But still, with a big shout he gets up from that mini stampede and noticed the outdoors! There was a giant structure in the air, shaking with great speed...... It was like a greaaaat fall! People near to that structure were found running for their lives........ Only thing he could see clearly is that the people outside are running away from the train!😨 Suddenly, there was a huge jerk in the train.... All were pushed towards a single side and fell off and so Keshav.
Through this chance he got himself up, tightly grabbed the window and was stunned to see the outdoor! He saw a huuuugeee palm tree falling upon the train! Those leaves on the top of the tree were shaking like a demon! It was a terrible stare as the tree was falling in a tremendous force with a lightning stuck on it!🗲 Keshav saw this and leaped out of his seat, landing on the cargo that was hidden beneath the seats of the train!
The tree thrashed the ground, producing a great roar and igniting a fire, causing everyone to shudder with a second bounce on the spot. The second bounce was so forceful that it caused a little split in the earth! The fire on the leaves spread all over the tree, making the sight seem dreadful. Keshav was witnessing all of this as the tree fell directly beside the railway, inflicting no harm as nothing happened to the train and passengers but still instilled panic among the passengers...... The Coromandel express is now at it's rest beside the huge fall!😩
After nearly ten minutes of seeing the horrific tragedy, everyone on the train boarded the train when the officials announced that it was time to go.... Keshav aboard the train was also shaken by this occurrence, not because his life was in risk, but because he couldn't have met Shalini...... With a sigh of relief that nothing had gone wrong, he noticed the time was around 6.30 pm., and saw a yellow board far away with the words "Balasore Station" printed on it.
