Aditya: We should also look for the train tickets as this is the last hour and the train leaves at
2:30 am.
Jai: I think trains are Keshav’s area of expertise as he travels a lot and has a good idea about
the timings.
Keshav: Yeah, don’t worry about the train. It is just a 3-hour journey even if we do not get a
seat, we can get tickets for general coach and we can just stand and go.
Parv: Yeah, and as far as I know general tickets are cheaper too.
Akash: Putting the plan together and executing it are two different matters. I don’t think this is
going to happen so rather than wasting time on this I will study for the upcoming
comprehensive exams.
Aditya: I agree with Akash, I live in Delhi and if I go there my family will want me to stay for
the upcoming weekend.
Aman: Guys you are looking at things the wrong way, think about all the fun we are going to
have there. Jai, can you please confirm with your relative for the tickets.
Akash and Aditya leaves
Jai: I will surely do that but how many tickets do we need?
Aman: Just ask for 6 tickets. I know Akash and Aditya will come around.
Keshav: If we are not sure about them, I don’t think we should get tickets for them. It will be
a huge waste if they do not come.
Parv: I agree, and if we look at things from their perspective, they also seem right. Many times,
a plan has been made and cancelled and it is always just a waste of time.
Jai: I totally understand that their perspective and our perspective are just two sides of a coin.
That doesn’t mean they do not want to come. I also think they will come around and I should
ask for 6 tickets. Worst case is we will have to pay for the extra tickets or we will just sell them
outside the ground on the peak hour.
Aman: Agreed, I will mail Chief Warden sir from all of our Email Id for urgent leave approval.
Jai leaves for the call
Parv: Fine then I will help you draft the mail with different reasons.
