A Horrible Experience
I was going to include some wonderful experiences from my journey in this post. Unfortunately, this post is going to be abt an incident that I'm not gonna forget for a long time to come....
I've learning to park using Swapnil's car for some days. I goto the Research Parkway building at a corner of the UCF campus and practise parking there. My friends had told me that it's a peaceful area without any traffic and nobody coming up to check that place. They were so wrong!
I was driving without any worries in the parking lot. Swapnil and Panchi were with me. They got out of the car and stood at the parking space edge to give a feel of parking cones (used in the road test) to me. I parked the car twice, took a turn to park the car again only to see that 2 cops had approached the place and were talking to my friends. They asked me to pull over and asked me for my UCF ID and my learner's license. I was already shit-psyched then, and imagine my horror when I realised that I hadn't brought my license with me!!! I felt as if all liquids were starting to come out of all holes in my body. You can't imagine how bad the feeling gets unless u get into my position.
I told the officer that I didn't have the license. He asked me to step out and started explaining that I should be having my license with me when I was driving and a guy having a permanent license (Swapnil) should be sitting beside me when I was driving. He explained that both of us could get tickets and I could be refrained from taking a drivers license test. We were driving in a research area and in front of a defense area (we didn't know that there was a defence area behind the building). The cops told us that they were cops from the defence area and were reporting our case to the UCF PD on the charge of traffic violations. So the UCF cops would be here in a couple of minutes.
Since I was already feeling the worst emotion possible, it couldn't get any worse. I was thinking wtf was happening with me: cupping in my road test for the silliest reason possible (that's another story) and such a thing happening to me now! Why is the license bcoming such a headache for me? Was this all happening because I was cotemplating on the existance of God and thought that even if he puts me in a difficult situation I would not plead for help to God! I was so WRONG!!! I was praying all the time now. I felt so sorry that I had sweared on God almighty and questioned His/Her eternal existance (Well, such thoughts really come up out of the blues when I'm in such a fucked up position).
Then came 2 plain white cars and parked beside our car. And in seconds came a third cop-car with bleeping lights. I was crossing my fingers and watching what was happening. The cop who had caught us told the other cops about the whole situation. Now two of the other cops came to us and said,"Your night is over as of now." I was like what the....
He continued,"I can charge u guys for traffic violation. But these things keep happening here and you should practise parking elsewhere, not in this place. So get in the cars and take off."
THAT'S IT!!! It was such a FUCKING RELEIF!!!!!!!!!!
A thought crossed my mind that I shall not forget for a long time to come: God almighty almost always has the last laugh.
