12) Day of Exam [Part 4]

Tweet

It was 1am of May 7th. I woke up and I saw someone sitting on the floor with the help of door. I got scared because it was dark and I cannot identify who it was.I was very scared and I immediately ran my hand to look out for mobile which was on the table beside my bed. I put on the torch in my mobile to see who it was and there I saw my friend sitting with his hand on head like he was having a headache. My soul was almost gone out for a sec during that moment then my body become conscious and I asked him furiously "o hell, you scared me so much, who does like that ? An hour ago you was sleeping beside me and now you are on the floor sitting like a ghost, what the hell are you about to do ?" He replied that he is unable to sleep, he tried alot but can't sleep so he was in trouble that if he couldn't? sleep, he might feel sleepy during exams and his exam will go very bad. He was in trouble so I decided to help him. I asked him " let's go out and have a walk for sometimes if you aren't feeling sleepy because I was also ran out of sleep of that scary moment" so we were walking out side then we saw that we are locked in that hotel. The main gates are closed, so we decided to go upstairs. We went there and we talk for about 2 hours. It was 3 am in the night by now, the city was silent. Since the the hotel was near the railway station so only the noises of trains and broadcast was coming. He by now became tired and then we came back to our room. He fall on bed and in about 5 min he went to sleep. Since I already had taken sleep from 11pm to 1 am. I was feeling fresh. So I took out the mobile phone and checked mylot, FB and WhatsApp. Some people wishes were there on WhatsApp and one of my friend was online so I spended time chatting with him. Then listened to some music. It was morning by now and the time was 5 am. We were 3 friends and so the 3rd person woke up and went to get ready. At 5.30am I woke up my 2nd friend who went to sleep at 3 am. All 3 of us got ready and called our parents and told them that we are leaving for our exams. So at 6 am we left the hotel leaving behind my bag and mobile and everything. The only thing we took was money and admit card. We had breakfast and then we catch public transport and went to the examination centre. The examination centre was on the highway (bypass road). The gates were closed as the entry time was 8.30-9.30 am and the exam time was 10 am to 1pm. We reached there by 7 am. The examination centre was a big school. The announcement were made that nobody should violate the rules, if does then he may not be able to give the exams. The rules were so much strict we thought ourselves as prisoners. I'll tell the rules in next discussion or maybe not. So we reach there and as it was summer morning, we began to feel thirsty there and since that school was on the highway so there was no market or shop for anything, not even water was available in the range of 3-4 km. We decided to control our thirst till entry time. There was no place to rest, so we found a vehicle and we sat on that. My friend was still sleepy so he slept on that vehicle for an hour. The sun was getting on our head, we were getting thirsty more and more and the heat started getting unbearable. We then move near the main gate where there was little shadow. Soon till entry time there gathered a large crowd of students, parents and Guardians. The gates were open and we had to cross towards 4 security check including metal detector, ear checking, clothes checking, and shoes checking (shoes were not allowed). Those who were violating the rules had to made arrangements like being in tge proper way as mentioned in the rule before entering. As we went inside, we were feeling like we got freedom and I ran to water point. I drank cold water for almost 2-3 minutes long. Then I breathe for sometimes and went inside the classroom. Since the we entered the classroom by 8.30 and the exam was from 10 am, I decided to have rest or sleep till then. The examination starts, during examination, I had to drank lots of water in between as it was hot. The classroom was in good condition but still my body was in need of more and more water. The bell rang before 10 min of the actual finish time. It rang on 12:50pm instead of 1 pm. The examiner were bound to take the answer sheet so they took it. In one of the subject, many questions were left behind because my time management was ruined. Now nothing can be happened. My exam goes pretty well but because of those left questions, I didn't perform well. We came outside, and oh my god, it was burning more than yesterday, I think it was 45°C and the time was 1.15pm and since it was open and highway area therefore hot winds were blowing. We immediately ran to get public transport, then in between we bought some cold drinks and somerhing to eat. If we didn't bought then we might get fainted. We were all sweaty and burning but we managed to get back to hotel. I was afraid that my mobile phone may have got steal by someone but it didn't. We took bath again and rest for an hour. It was 3.15pm now and we were so much exhausted that we decided not to stay for a minute now and leave as soon as possible. We left the hotel, drink some fruit juice to bear heatstroke. At railway station, sonmuch of crowd was there. There was no place to sit, many people were sitting on the floor of the platform. Because of crowd, it was more heat and sweaty. We were almost crying inside but we keep on struggling. Our train came at 4pm. We sat in it and the fun fact was that we didn't even bothered to buy ticket. After sitting in the train, we decided not to buy any ticket, let's just go in Sleeper . If Ticket Collector will come, we will go in general where there is a crowd place and there Ticket Collector usually don't check ticket because he understands that it's the summer and heat and full with students. We were in Sleeper coach and after an hour TT came and before he see us, we silently went to another sleeper coach and then another. We were sitting in the last sleeper coach when 5-6 Reserve Police Force came. We were afraid that we might get thrown out but he came for other purposes. He told us that if you do not get out for the amount of time when the train reaches at the desired station and tried to pull the chains because you were irresponsible, you will get punishment by us. So we feel relaxed. We told them that we understoof their point and we will not do such kind of activities. Then when finally ticket collector came in the last sleeper coach where we were sitting relaxed. He asked us, what are you all doing here, go to general coach. We did not wanted to go so we made excuse that the upcoming station is our destination. So he got convinced and he also did t asked for ticket. That was the last coach of the train of whom he was checking the ticket. He left the train at next station and we were happy that now we can reach happily. We reach Prayag Station finally and we went to our homes. I was surprised to see my parents at home because they were went for 10 days but they came back home on 6th day and before. Believe me, it's such relaxing to see parents at home when you're tired. You get boosted by energy and feel refreshed. I took bath and told them that I didn't pay anything to come to home from that city. I shared them all the stories that happened with me like I'm doing like this with all of you my mylot friends. We had dinner together and went to sleep. I slept for almost 13 hours long. After that next day, I decided to write all about my experience and share if with you all. :)
