Train Tale

Two of the sweetest angels made my day as our train traversed the north, towards Delhi.Despite the age difference, they were almost identical; Ishani and Hritisha.It was heartening to see Ishani fuss over her younger sister, for it reminded me of that carefree time with my little sister when we would squabble over trifles, play word games, laugh over the goofiest secrets that we kept in all seriousness. Ah, those are the 'train memories' that I cherish. And keeping up with those reveries, eventually, we spent a lot of time interacting with Ishani, whose in 6th.
Perhaps it is their earnest, self-assured talk that is so absolutely enchanting. How many of us can actually turn away from such excitement and innocence.Truly beautiful.
