A fantastic day I must say. Its picture is still clear in my
mind. That day had added one more beautiful memory to my life!
I was in second year when I’ve got scooty. Being a loving
daughter to my lovely parents, I was never allowed to drive to far places.
Moreover, I was not that champion in driving it, I had just learnt to drive on
highway. As the roads are much curvy, so I was restricted to drive to any place
other than my college.
But as usually when I’ve got the keys, I wanted to visit at
least not that far stunning places closer to my hometown where I’ve never
visited unluckily but have heard a lot of times. Ankita and I, crazy cool friends (always excited and ready
to do anything which is restricted) decided to visit Koldam to add more fun to
our lives.
I was not that rider still she was never anxious of going
with me, opposite to this fact she was much more excited than me. We bunked
college and headed towards our way. The road was in poor condition until reach
Jarol. In between, I had to drive with utmost focus. At some places I asked her
to walk some steps and at some places when I got struck, she motivated and
showed confidence on me. When the cruel bumpy road ended and a clean road came,
adrenalin’s secretion increased and it made me to accelerate scooty more with Ankita
telling me to drive faster. When I remember the day, I laugh. Seriously, we
could’ve died that day but as usually lady luck worked for us again!
We were feeling the air so hard on our faces that at last I
had to slow down my vehicle. As usual chatter boxes, we had enough to talk
about. We were unacquainted to the way. I drove it until I saw bridge from
where I had idea to proceed further but for cross checking, we stopped and
asked the way from the shopkeeper and took some snacks from him.
When we reached on the road which was a separate way towards
Koldam, we were mesmerized by the enchanting view and cool breeze touching our
skin in hot summer days. When we reached at main Koldam gate, we were
prohibited to go further but they insisted us to go to V-point from where the
whole view of the reservoir could be seen.
After taking the instructions, we started to move on the
road. The place was very much peaceful but there were some houses ahead. There
was a school which was giving an impression as if it’s a movie set. As we saw
things there, we were feeling as if we’ve discovered a town which was hidden. A
far but a very beautiful place away from the city where you feel as if it’s a
kingdom of any king, it excited us to discover it more. We named it ‘Hidden
town’.
As we proceeded further, I got the glimpse of sun’s shadow
in water and then an enchanting view of water everywhere. I at once shouted to
tell this to Ankita and I know her face had been lit up with smile at that
precise moment.
I parked the vehicle and we stood there and took many
pictures. We enjoyed each and every moment that day and then headed back to
home as I had to reach home in time.
