Papa worked in Trinity College during his first six months in USA in Fall 2001. To go to Trinity college, papa had to take a bus and then train from his sister’s home to college. The bus used to cross many train lines during this period to reach the train station. Papa counted four train lines were when he needed to get down, to go to the station to catch train.

On one chilly Sunday morning, he boarded the bus, knowing the train lines the bus would cross and got down. The bus left. He knew the name of station. Soon he did realize he got down somewhat earlier. So he decided to walk that distance. He was walking by when he saw two neighbours mowing their lawns. So he asked one of them, how can I go to this particular station. One of them did tell him but said the station was 8-10 miles, so what was his plan. He said he had no other choice but to walk, so that was his plan to walk. Sometime you just got to do, what you need to do. That guy asked him to wait, got dressed and asked papa to get in his jeep and drove him to the station. Papa said you came all the way just to drop me. He said its ok, I anyway had some work here later, so I will do it now.
Papa remembers this incident, not the man to forget any favor, small of big!
