Malvika's Ramblings

A stop

Dusty. Parched. Dirty travelling clothes.Chappals fished out from under seats, where a Bisleri bottle rolls with warm water inside. Life size lions silently roar 'hello'. Large dolls work at the loom, frozen. A spray of water (Is it hygienic?). Quick dash to the loo. Others wait. Some shop. All desultory. Too tired to exclaim “Wow, look at this!”. CDs with Remixed songs and Maa ke darshan bhajans. Carkeys hanging out of pockets. Broad shouldered waiters in turbans, embroidered jackets and lungis. Tall glass of cold lassi. Ahh..Finally. 'Haveli' on Delhi-Amritsar highway. Wagah shall come. Later.
