Its about that accident that gives me pain even after 9 years. Gurgaon, I hate you, i hate you for giving me this lifelong pain and the awful traffic you have.
It was somewhere in the Summers of 2006, around 8PM, i was going to a friend's places from Noida to Gurgaon. After i reached Gurgaon in that rickety bus after braising the heat for some 3 hours with all that stink ( urghhhh) and crowds.
Gurgaon bus station is like a small town bus station in an Indian town which don't even have the basic facilities. So, i came out of the the bus stand and boarded a shared auto to my destination. I wasnted to reach asap as I was hungry and tired and exhausted. Just after the auto left the bus stand and was moving in my direction ( which had 6 more people inside), a haryana roadways bus came from right side and hit the auto. As soon as it hits, auto lost its balance and i dont remember anything after it as when i got my consiousness back, i was lying on a so called footpath with my phone lying in pieces next to me. I was getting unciousness again an again and traiffc wass moving as usual. I was like, if i go back to unciousness mode, i am gonna die.
I have tried hard to be up with severe pain in my legs. I somehow tried to make the phone work thanks to the Nokia 1100 which is like the life savior. It started and i called the first number, luckily, it was of the same friend i was visiting to. I told him that I am not able to move and lying someplace in Gurgaon near bus stand. I was in a shock situation and he was asking me the exact location of mine but i was not able to tell him. Soon, he hanged up, telling me that he is on his way. I was just lying there with the bad leg and people just moving staring at me. I through to call home but thought, i will call after seeing the damage.
In next 10 mins, my friend found me and he took me in his car and the next thing i remember was a doctor tearing my trousers. All of us were seeing the damage and it was like a blue patch of soreness on my left leg and it was hurting. He soon took me to the X-ray room and in next 15 minutes we had the x-ray showing no fracture. That clinic guy was in so hurry to go home that night that he just gave me a bandage, an ointment and asked to put.
I did what he said and did a huge mistake to not go to doctor next day. Pain was gone in 3-4 days so do the blue patch but that pain comes back sometimes in winters or during mountain hiking etc, not that i do hiking very regularly but whenever i feel the pain there, it reminds me of that night and Gurgaon. Holy Shitty Place i say.....
