My Second Last Train
a cranky ride to home

My Second last Train 🚂
it’s been a while am resident of Australia but still it feels hard because I’m far from my family my friends alone on my own. in my home country my daily routine was wake up eat sleep vision I enjoy every single time of my life but then my stupid friends starts working growing up so I had to do something and in my what’s the time I decided to go abroad for studies and work. now everything is changed I had to wake up with the annoying ringtone of my alarm I need to cook for myself for the rest of the day I need to hop on the train is on time so I won’t be late for my classes and further for my work. around 6 am in the morning I woke up and make coffee have shower get ready for a long day then at around 08:03 am I took a train to City then took a tram at 8:47 am to my college after finishing college at 2:40 pm I go to my job around 3:30 pm tell 10:30 pm then for returning back home I need to catch the Second last train to my Suburb. this is my daily routine. my life was going smooth like this daily routine every day same old thing every night I got tired fed up with myself went to sleep wake up with the same attitude is sleep work until the day I missed my Second last train to my home.
it was the day before my final exam I was studying at night and now I’m browsing and searching Google for the notes and everything and preparing for exams Suddenly one ad pops up Regarding the story the read new books for free and I got distracted so I open one story and then another have a small tiny story someone happy ending someone scary and some was romantic one so I feel so good and I want I forgot about my exam turn in my phone alarm and turn that I put it before to sleep so I can get a good sleep for tomorrow and then I came to know it’s time I spend last one and half hour reading the story is rather than study but it’s not a big deal I already know what to do what not to do so I just reading the story I don’t know when I went to sleep in meantime I forgot to set alarm for next day therefore I woke up late I didn’t have my coffee I got ready and on for my college so I missed my first train then first tram but luckily I was in time for my exam I wonder what if I didn’t wake up and I miss my exam and I wasted my whole semester like this I got scared for once but then I saw my examination paper it was all the things that I know that was pretty amazing I’ve been so happy I started writing on with the blink of an eye it’s been three hours my Exam was finished I was so relaxed and I have time to eat something and to reach to work on time. However, when I went to food court I saw it is too busy so I just order my regular lunch and decided to wait and read from the same thing that I’m reading last night. I sit down on a bench next to the shop and started one story regarding a girl who was missing from his house from last couple of years and a random person in his neighbourhood allegedly happened to find out what happened to her. It was really engaging and the story was so good that I a Almost forgot I need to go and grab my food and eat it people from the shop keep calling my name and one girl came on tap me and give me my food and chat why are you so lost in studies stupid, you gotta eat first then she laughed and I laughed because she didn’t know That I wasn’t studying for my exam. After that I grab my food and check the time again I was late for my work so I had to rush I hold on my food in my hand so I can eat in the tram on my way to my work. as usual I was late so I had to stop there late. after finishing the work I had to run to my station to catch my train but i was little late because i saw my train leaving the station. however, i wasn’t worried because my last train yet to come and my college was finished so i had no rush to wake up early and run for things so i sat down on the bench and started to wait for the train.
It was nearly midnight i was waiting for my last to arrive and reading random stories that i quite found amusing, i was so lost in stories and in my phone that i lost track on time as well. but i soon i started to worry about going home because my phone’s battery started to getting to low to use. Therefore, i get up from the bench and look for someone who can tell me about the train but there was no one at the station or no one that i can see to help but in a minute i heard the honking of train, i never feel so relaxed about the train but i couldn’t see any on the tracks anywhere near so i thought i had to wait little longer then i turned away from the platform to sit on the bench, after moving towards the bench, i look back and what i saw there is train standing there with doors open and people are staring at me, i was so shocked what just happened then i thought may its new silent bullet trains are so i just get up and walks towards the train. the other thing i feel weird about the train was that there was no people coming out or going in and just one door of the train booth was open but i didn’t care much and just hoped in. I was looking for a window seat but there was none available to me, so i had to sit with an old lady in front of allthe other passengers. she looks too old to travel alone thus i tried to ask her is there someone sitting here but she didn’t replied anything, so anyway i just sit there and watch the train moving, it was so dark i couldn’t see a bit outside. suddenly there was pin drop silence in the train, i looked back everyone looking down i guess on their phones then i turned my neck back i saw that old lady looking at me, for one second it gave me a shock than i feel relaxed when she turned her head towards the window. Even i started to look at window now, what i saw in window was just my own reflection, then i noticed that someone is behind me, i turned swiftly it was nothing but when i turned back to normal i felt that everyone standing behind me, or it was just nothing at all. Then i looked at my phone to check the time but the time wasn’t moving at all it was just 10 mins since i hoped in the train, however the weird thing was that train never stopped at any station since then too. i started to worrying about if i am on the wrong train what if it taked me to the different place from where i can’t get any trains to return home. I started to panic and i pressed the information button the left side of the door but no one responded so i started to get up and walk towards the driver if i can find someone who can told me where the train is going, After crossing two cabins of the train i felt that every cabin is the same and there are same people. I started to freak out but i held myself strong and i gathered the courage to talk to the lady who looks like the lady from my cabin, i said excuse me ma’am, hello. She wasn’t responding, so i think i should touch her from the shoulder to check if is she sleeping or not. I poked her on her shoulder and she turned her head only and said yes this is your station. after seeing her rotating head my heart almost got failed and i got frozen. But still am hearing this one line hey your station is here wake up wakeup, then i woke up and saw that lady telling me that your station is here go, than i realised it was just a scary dream. i felt relaxed and get up to left the train. am standing in front of the door, train is getting slow almost like to stop. However, in door’s reflection i saw all the people from the train standing behind me, but this time i didn’t feel that odd because maybe its their last stop as well. Now train stopped and the doors was about to open i was feeling good to go home so i can have a good sleep, but suddenly someone holds my hand when i looked back there was no one and i turned back towards the door and when the doors opened all of them standing outside, i got scared and they started to yell, come out its your station, now am worried about getting out of the train and am frozen again, i started to move back slowly but i can’t then they all started move towards me and i started to move backwards, i ended up standing with my back on the other door and all other people all coming so close to me and suddenly the door opened and i fell down from the train there was no floor am keep falling and falling!!!!
Suddenly i woke screaming in my bed, i felt what just happened, what was it, i checked my phone it is the day of my exam and getting late again. For once i felt relaxed it was one hell of a scary dream. After that i woke up from the bed and reached to the station, i missed my train then my tram it felt like the dream.
Now i was confused last night was a dream or am having deja vu!!!!!!!
