I began to run.As soon as I reached the platform the train began to move.I jumped into the compartment nearest to me. I thanked God that I could board the train. After occupying a seat I thought of informing my father of my boarding. As I Thrusted my hand into my jeans I was shocked my mobile was not there. Being puzzled I did not know what to do.
