I am very careful about my things. So it is not much time I lost my things. But now I would like to talk about a night that I made a mistake. That was a few years back. I was travelling to Kerala. I was travelling from Kerala to Tamil Nadu to meet my relatives there. It was a night travelling. So I was very tired. I felt asleep when the bus started. The bus stopped for 20 minutes break. I get out of the bus for fresh and eat some food. I totally forget about my phone at that time. I don’t know what happened to me during that time. When I get back to the bus I realise that I forget my phone. I searched all over the bus but I can’t find it. Suddenly I make a call to my phone but it was switched off. I informed the bus driver and conductor about that my phone is missing. Actually they searched the whole bus and also the bags of the passengers but I can’t find it. Maybe some thief left it.

I am very careful about my things, so it is not often that I lose them. But now I would like to talk about a night when I made a mistake. That was a few years back. I was traveling from Kerala to Tamil Nadu to meet my relatives there. It was a night journey, and I was very tired. I fell asleep when the bus started. The bus stopped for a 20-minute break, and I got out of the bus to freshen up and eat some food. I totally forgot about my phone at that time. I don't know what happened to me during that time. When I got back to the bus, I realized that I had forgotten my phone. I searched all over the bus, but I couldn't find it. Suddenly, I made a call to my phone, but it was switched off. I informed the bus driver and conductor that my phone was missing. They searched the whole bus and also the bags of the passengers, but I couldn't find it. Maybe a thief took it.
