By the time our delayed train reached and I disembarked with my father and baby Lavanya, it
was well past midnight. It was cold, dark and foggy. My husband, Manas, who was to receive us,
was nowhere in sight. Soon, the platform became deserted.
Then, a burly man approached us and offered to carry our bags. He wasn't wearing the usual
porter's red shirt and tag, and though I was wary, my father decided to hire him. Leaving Lavanya
and me with the man, my father went to look for Manas. I took a closer look at the man and felt
apprehensive. He was big and hairy, his face was pock-marked and his eyes looked bloodshot.
Just then Lavanya, who had been sleeping in my arms, awoke and turned to look at the porter.
He gave her a playful smile and held out his arms. I thought she'd start crying and held her closer.
But she smiled back and twisted herself out of my arms into his.
Now I was really scared. What if he ran away with my baby? He must have sensed my fear and
before I reached out to take Lavanya back, he handed her to me. Turning around, he mumbled
that though everyone was scared of him, yet my innocent baby had accepted him. His eyes had
tears in them. I didn't know what to say.
