By the time our delayed train reached and I disembarked with my father & baby Lavnya, 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 not interested, 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 fearful. He was big and hairy and his eyes looked; bloodshot. Just then Lavanya 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 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 so handed her back to me. His eyes had tears in them. At that moment my father returned with Manas. The man picked up our bags and put them in the car, the man refused to take payment from us. He placed his hand on Lavanya's head for a moment and walked away.
