So, here we are now, in Delhi Metro, the largest metro network in India. While everyone keeps themselves busy in something or the other, songs, books, chatting and maybe official work too at times.
However, if you sometime find a little of free time in these overcrowded and tiring journeys, you may try to look at what people are actually doing.

I see a romantic couple rejoicing the time they have till one of them would have to get down, and then maybe phones might ring to resonate their love.

There is another couple in the centre of bogey, fighting continously in their inaudible voices and in between it is loud enough for the bogey to witness another drama unfold.

I see a girl, probably chatting with someone.... She smiles often looking at her phone, it is equally probable to guess that it is her special human and equally probable to guess it might be someone new one. She has earphones in her pierced ears, listening to her fav music.

The other guy standing between the bogeys, glued to that corner to get his mobile phone charged... He's watching a movie, and has already zoned out. I wonder if he even knows that he is traveling in Metro and not the supercar in his screen.

An aged gentleman quietly takes his seat in the seats reserved for old aged and slowly slips his earphone in the jack of an outdated smartphone, which must have been gifted by his children a while back. He started listening to bhajan, not realizing that the earphones are not yet properly attached. He does care to lend an eye to people standing around him, offers his seat to a young lady who instantly denies the favor.

Further towards the end of bogey are two girls, probably best friends who don't meet too often, their chatter entertaining not just them, but the travellers around them as well. They talk about other girls, what are they doing in their lives, their boyfriends and stalking them.

We enter into an area with dense trees. I see sunshine playing patterns on the face of a little kid sitting opposite to me. The kid remains equally astonished and excited the entire journey. Something which fades away with our adolescence, we become bored very easily, failing to realize the beauty of everything around us at the moment.

An old lady boards the metro at next station, failing to find a seat, she shares a scaring stare at everyone not offering their seat, one of the guys in the other part of Bogey offers his seat. She simply sits there, and stares at others... She doesn't take her phone out and watch a movie, listen to songs... Nothing she simply stare at other people.

The landscape from window opposite to me keeps on changing, from dense treecover, to concrete jungle, some cars running parallel to us on the flyovers that won't be seen for long as they descend in a few metres.

Those two guys listening to music kept on staring at me since the time I boarded, sounds creepy though, he keeps on clutching his fingers and palm in a manner similar to punching someone.

Another middle-aged guy keeps peeking into the adjacent passenger's screen, the next level of spying maybe. He is listening to his playlist but cares to put the phone away until it's time to change the song, and peeks in others in the transition.

I see some people from rural areas travelling in groups, talking aloud in their native and confusion that grips all of them as to where to deboard. An oversmart family person guides them and assures them to take it easy as he knows everything about metro network.

A sleeping guy suddenly wakes up and realizes that he missed his station and now stand worried and perplexed waiting for next station. Everyone in the bogey appears to care for him and they keep on suggesting him the alternate way to reach back...

Suddenly a scuffle unfolds among two guys, while one accuses the other of pushing him intentionally, and 10 minutes later they part their ways into different bogeys.

Well, if you just observe, you may witness so many stories unfolding around us and we choose to narrow our possibilities of finding one such story gluing ourselves to the screens.
Much like our lives, we keep on focussing on our own matters, failing to realize there are better or even bigger things happening around us.
