Early morning breaks in and it is a weekday. The busy
schedule of office begins. I dress up make something that I only know how to
eat and jump into my car. The ride begins.
I get into my car switching it on to hear the humming. I wait
a few minutes to get my ride charged up and then begin the journey. This isn't
a road trip or a pleasant journey this one is my daily trip to office.
The
radio is on and I am with Chris Fischer. It is journey of 60 km and I want it to be a
peaceful one but alas the schools here don’t like me driving well. There are
big coasters full of kids with uniform, then the Mommies with shades taking their kids, and the
office goers like me who may be thinking the same way.
I cruise down the
highway without any hassles and sometimes it is splendid outside. The mountain
top is covered with low lying clouds and it looks perfect and as I begin
enjoying the ride comes the next boulder. Some people like traffic and they
cause this second one. The cars try to overtake and just sneak into the right
track, then others follow until there is a big fat one right at the end of the
flyover.
The traffic doubles the time to reach my office. I wonder if
all could obey the rules it would have been better or else rules shouldn't be
there. The rules with rule breakers ends up in sluggish roads. Soon I reach the
expressway and this is where I enjoy it. With a smooth 120km/h I cruise through
it relaxed with the latest beats on. To give myself a nudge I tune into the Arabic
one listening to the Khaleeji or the modern. I just love the beats
and I feel I am speeding on a beautiful desert camel.
It is nearing eight and I am on track. I reach the office
all set to start another day of work thinking of the return journey….
