Taking The first Step...

The tickets were not confirmed, bags were not packed. A lot of shopping was  pending. Overall, it was a messy Saturday morning. At 1.15 JB told me that I should sit back home as tickets were not confirmed. Praj told me that we will go to the station and talk it out with TT or someone. With all further reservations in hand we didnot want to miss this train. The TT told us that since it was a e-ticket it was as good as cancelled. It was almost 3.15 pm and he was not convinced. Praj ran to the other end of the platform and found some other TT. He said he would let us travel on the train but we will have to pay fine. We had to accept this plan. The train moved and we jumped on the train.It was first ever experience of travelling without ticket. We had to take this risk. The only thought was its better to fail than keep thinking what could have happened. During the train journey we were informed by the IRCTC that our next ticket from Kolkata to New Jal Paiguri was confirmed....
