उत्तर

James  Last Friday I was caught in an embarrassing situation.
Rahim Where? How?
James  All the passengers were waiting at the Chennai central station.
Rahim Where were you heading to? 
James  Well, I was heading to New Delhi.
Rahim What was the cause of your embarrassment?
James   I did not know about the last-minute change of platform. I had got an open ticket to Delhi. Along with many other passengers, I rushed to the unreserved compartment and I boarded it on platform 6. But the platform was changed to 11. I got a comer seat and had a sense of pride.
Rahim Then when did you realize your mistake?
James  A well-dressed boy asked me if I was going to Mysore. I was surprised and said that I was going to Delhi. He laughed aloud and said to the fellow passengers look, this young man is going to Delhi by Cauvery express. The train had started moving. I rushed out with my luggage and jumped out.
Rahim Did you catch Tamil Nadu express or not?
James  Of course, I did, but I had to travel standing for one night.
Rahim  I’m really sorry to hear it. Be careful in the future.
