well, listening to others conversations is not a hone good habit especially when they are over the phone but people these days frequently use their mobile phones at public places like parks, buses, trains, banks and so on, so eavesdropping on their conversations is almost unavoidable. here, I would like to talk about an instance when I overheard the phone conversation of a stranger while traveling by bus. last month, I was traveling to Delhi by bus, a person in his thirties boarded the same bus from one of the stations and sat next to me. he appeared a little anxious and restless .he was looking at his watch again and again and it seemed like he was in a hurry to reach his destination. after ten minutes his phone rang and he hurriedly picked it up as if he was expecting a call and he asked the person at the other end what the situation was and after hearing the reply he almost jumped out of the seat with excitement. he brakes into a broad smile and then he started bombarding the other person with his question like, how does the baby look, how is baby, is the baby crying .how is the mother and all these questions and finally he ended the conversation saying that he was on his way and would reach the hospital soon. so from his conversation, I realized that someone had a baby. after the call was over he was still bursting with joy and he couldn't control his smile and he turned to me and said, I have become a father my wife just gave birth to a baby girl. he opened his bag and gave me a few chocolates to share his happiness and I congratulated him.
