On Flight
Two senior couple, invited by grandchildren, moved to abroad for one month visit. It was their first visit to so distance that too in the age of eighty. They were afraid of many thing finally they agreed to make grandchildren happy. It was first time to take flight that too alone. There were completely unaware of system in plane and visit. Being vegetarian they were unable to eat anything. Seats became uncomfortable as time passed. No one was talking informally. Pain started in the parts of the body. One was looking others with eyes on oneness. They were not able to understand what air hostess says. Being excitement in newness and new experience they tried to normalize inconveniences.
It was long flight. In some stage both of them slept. They entered in to a dream. It was reflection of plane. Granddaughter in law was air hostess. She came to them and asked for any inconvenience. Taught various exercise that made them comfortable relieved pain. Provided packet of food brought from home. Opened religious drama and sweet bhajan and put microphone in the ear. It was great joy and lovely environment. They wanted to go toilet. Granddaughter in law took them in toilet taught how to use. Made sure that they know it. She prepared the tea of their taste and put on table.
When awaken there was relief of pain and freshness. It was just dream that they just lived with granddaughter as airhostess. But pain was still there. Dream was their expectation which was reflected in the dream. It was practically possible or not that is matter of investigation but they had a nice time in the dream. The recalled dream for a long time tried to forget the real one. It was not possible to do that. Pain was there, uncomfortable was there. Inconvenience was there. Dream was also there in the memories. There was conflict in between real and dream. Dream was past and real was present. Plane crew announced that plane will land shortly. It landed and process started for going out.
