Legs were on the course to find something interesting on Bangkok airport. Full 5 hours I had to spend alone. Next flight was at 11:30 and It was morning 6. With my mind at work to find the most feasible solution to spend my time, eyes were sticking to the beautiful paintings on the wall. Fond of art, I tried to spend time analyzing the paintings and capturing in camera.
Walking aimlessly suddenly I remembered that there may be Wi-Fi in the airport. I enquired at the information desk and they gave one user id and password.
In no time, I left a message to friends and relatives about my safe landing in Bangkok. The internet connection also snapped in 15 minutes before I could have realized that it was only for demo, for unlimited time you need to pay for it. I was planning to see a movie when a girl came running to me asking how to connect to internet. These things never happen in real life when a beautiful girl comes to talk to you. It happened. She sat beside me and I helped her to login in system. Not feeling any excitement about “the unpredicted happening” as I was sure that once she will login, she will leave. Many times god also tries to laugh at you when you are struggling with a situation.
It didn’t happen. After logging, she didn’t move. Instead, she was chirping like a happy bird. In no time she bombarded me with questions like where u work, where are you going, how old are you and the fourth question was how many brothers and sisters you have. I was thinking about why I should tell you all the answers. Hardly have we known each other, but seeing her excitement, I replied slowly. I thought that soon her girly questions will be over and she will go back to her seat.
This also didn’t happen.
"Tum Kahan se ho?" she asked.
I thought in my mind. What a girl I am talking in Hindi since long time.
"Of course, I am from India. And you are from which part of India?" I asked. She told Pakistan.
I was like "what"?? first time I thought that Hindi speaking person can also be from outside India.
“Have you seen the Bangkok airport completely? I heard it is a beautiful airport.“she asked.
I said “I came here before but didn’t get time to see the airport.”
“When is your flight?” I asked.
“After 10 hours almost. Means 6 in evening. And yours? “
Mine is after 5 hours I said.
Why not we see the airport? We have at least 4 hours. She offered.
No wonder I didn’t have any other thought, but put my laptop back in the bag and got up. It was delightful time with her. In just few minutes we got comfortable with each other. Many times we got in India Pakistan war mood but she will remind herself to say that my dad told me that outside don’t talk about politics and religion. Both of us didn’t want to spoil the mood, so one of us will always take initiative to stop any argument growing like this.
After roaming for an hour, we just thought that we should have breakfast. We found one café nearby and have some drink and cake. We took a lot of photos. I was like a photographer for her. Four hours spent, like seconds. We both were looking at the watch, trying to hold the time. The Samundra manthan was the best attraction on airport.
In the heat of challenge we took photos with some Thai girls also in shops.
Soon the time was over and I thought to go for my flight. We came searching for the way back to the place. Couldn’t find any way to express my thanks to her at the last moment. In fact, it was an enjoyable time for both of us. Now we are good friends and we often chat. I also said to her those three magical words.. "Nice meeting u." :D
It was almost 15 minutes left for my flight when I came running to the announced gate.
Sometimes the same duration of time which looks tough to spend becomes short that we try to hold it.
