her often. I was delighted at the thought of seeing and her family again.

My
friend Sajjad and I were sitting at the railway station. I came to see him off.
Sajjad was going to Dhaka to his elder sister's house. It was very crowded in the
station. There was a long-line of-people at the ticket counter. A woman
standing in the queue was holding a child tightly by its hand so that he
couldn't run off. A group of young people was talking loudly and drinking tea
in front of a tea stall. An old couple was trying to find a quiet place to sit
down and rest. The waiting room was crowded, too.
I saw
one man who was trying to carry three heavy suitcases. A young lady was sitting
on her luggage at one corner and was reading d magazine.
My
friend and I stood near a newspaper stall talking and watching the crowd
around. It was soon time for my friend’s train to leave. As the train whistled. He picked up his suitcase and we said goodbye to
each other.
