My name is Abhishek. I am a survivor in Mumbai. I am writing this on my blog page. I will be out tomorrow and everyday to go to some place or the other, office, multiplex,restaurants or to my friend's place, when the sun is highest in the sky or when moon and stars fight for their visibility in city lights. If you are going to be out there, if anyone is going to be out there then this message is for you.
We have a situation here. I have moved in to this city few months back.It has its own charm, the city of dreams as many would put it.This is the city of Indian cinema,Bollywood. Most of us are fond of these movies and also some flicks from hollywood. I am not a movie buff bt I still watch some. Its good entertainment to watch movies from different genres. Do you have a story like the one in Resident Evil or I am Legend on your favaourite's list. What if one of these stories turn into reality where the city is taken over by monsters? Well, it is real in Mumbai but not everyone realises it. I too had no realisation until yesterday when I saw some infected humans.
I was at a friend's last weekend and was returning home. The mode of travel I used is the life line of this city, local train. Weekends are not that crowded they say, but I feel its crowded everywhere and anytime here. I had to change the train at a station so i got down from one and was waiting for the other at the platform. This was going to take me to my home. A train came and suddenly my attention was directed to the next gate of the bogie.A girl around 20 yrs of age fell down on the platform in an attempt to get through the crowd in to the train. I saw them, the infected monsters, it was an opportunity for them. They trampled the girl under their foot. I saw their foot crunching the girls chest and face as they got in to the train. She was pulled away by some of her friends(read: survivors) at the right time.Had there been a delay, she could've died. I was shocked by the incident that reminded me of some stories that peopletold me about these monsters in the past. The girl was lucky that she was saved.
I dropped the idea of going by the train. But I won't be able to escape everytime. They are everywhere in the city. They throw stones at the moving trains, push people off the train, and try to trample the weak on the platforms. If you are not one of those who are infected then then this is a message for you. Next time you go out, you have to stay aware of these monsters. Save yourself and save others from people who are infected. Those who think that getting somewhere on time is more important than someone's life. Life is precious, and no one has the right to kill someone just to get to a place on time. Infact such people deserve to be killed. So save yourself from this....
Take Care...
