I
always go home on weekends despite the condition of weather and last week was
no different from any other weekends. I had asked for the extension of my leave
since I had some work at Nanglam. After spending a night at Nanglam and
finishing my work there, I travelled back home. The weather was hot and dusty
and there was no sign of rain. Assuming that the weather might be same at my
station which is about 25 kms away, I asked my driver to drop me to my station
in the evening. My husband said that I should leave in the afternoon since the
weather is very unpredictable in the summer and agreeing to his suggestion I
got into the vehicle after lunch. Travelling through the rugged bumpy farm road
is not always a pleasant experience but I got no other option.
