  Dusk had fallen by the time we all came out of the movie theatre. We ate a few samosas and drank a cup of tea each from a nearby restaurant, after which my friends dropped me off at the bus stop. I was the only one who had to catch a bus to get back home. They left when I was able to find the bus that I was supposed to board
  It had been a great day for me - my first outing with my friends in Sambalpur ! I was happy andexcited. However, unlike other days, on that evening, I was boarding a late bus. Usually, by that time, I would be at home. That evening I expected to reach home only by dinner time.
  There were only a handful of people inside the bus. Most of the seats were empty. As the first few rows were not so good for long-distance travel, Ifound myself a seat at the rear of the bus. It was on the right side of the aisle, next to the window. I slid open the window pane to let the fresh air in, and started to look outside.
  The street lights were on and so were the lights in the small shops. Inside the bus, it was close to dark. There were lights installed on the roof of the bus, but since the insides of the lamp shades were full of dirt and dead insects, most of the light was getting blocked, creating a faint glimmer.
