I had booked the air tickets two months back - so that my in-laws can fly from Kolkata to Mumbai and go back. And the reason was that I can get the tickets cheap.
It was a nice time spending one month with them - they're here specially to celebrate our son's birthday.And my MIL was generous enough to spoil her daughter by cooking and serving for the whole month.
My son was the happiest person - from the time he wake up till dozes off, he'll listen to unlimited stories from MIL who is having infinite energy, passion and stock to deliver every single day.
And the bonus for me was getting delicious and timely food everyday (and a coffee in the morning).
The whole month went fine and yesterday I went to airport to see them off. I was on my way back, and I got a call from my wife - that the Kolkata flight has already gone and my in-laws were late.
My son and I rushed back to the airport. In my way my son acted as if he's called up the police number to let them know that I was driving beyond the speed limit - so I came back to the limit and reached th airport.
I went to the ticket counter to ask what we can do now as we've missed the flight - and to my surprise I found that the ticket I booked was actually from Kolkata to Mumbai rather than Mumbai to Kolkata. And as there was only 1hr time gap was there, the ticket was spoiled.
Now came the next question, what to do next - we came back home.
I went through all the options available - finally chose a 1935hr flight - it was a bit costly as this is a last minute ticket. In any case, I opted for that and in the evening dropped to to the airport.
The best part of the whole drama was , I was never guilty for a single moment - I was present 'this is so" and what's next to be done. There was a whole world of power available with me to deal that - thanks to the distinctions on goingly available through assisting !
