He did well and got good Percentages in M.B.A.
It was his last day in IIM. He bid Farewell to his close friends and his love without even confessing his love in these two years.

It was Dawn, Joseph was returning to his Hometown Thrissur in Kerala and waiting at Banaswadi Railway Station.
He had a big bag pack. The Platform was wet and skiddy.
Joseph was looking at his iPhone. He heard the sound of trains crossing on the two platforms.
Besides Joseph, was a stone bench, where a Mother and a 3 years old Daughter were sitting.
The Mother was sitting and sleeping with her daughter sleeping in her Mother’s lap.
Joseph Noticed it and thought about him sleeping on his mother’s lap when he was a child and smiled.
Joseph Saw a Facebook Post and Grinned.
The Daughter Sleeping in the Stone Bench woke up. She looked at her mother. The Mother seemed Tired and was sleeping. The Daughter didn’t disturb her.
The Little Girl looked around her. She saw Joseph, came near him and asked “Nee Malayali aano “
Joseph on hearing the voice turned towards the girl.
Joseph Smiled and replied in Malayalam “athae”
The Little girl asked his Name in Malayalam “Enthaanu niṅṅaḷude per”
“endae per Joseph”
The Little girl appreciated the name “Nalla per”
Joseph thanked her with a smile
When Joseph was about to ask the little girl’s name, she reverted
to the stone bench.
Joseph again started scrolling his iPhone.
The Little girl was getting bored. The girl saw a red-colored balloon flying. The Girl Started to follow the Balloon. The Girl wandered around the flying balloon.
Wandering Around the Flying balloon made the little girl Happier.
The balloon slowly fell on the railway track. The Little Girl went to the end of the platform and saw the balloon on the tracks.
Not Many People were Noticing this.
The Girl turned towards her mother, she was still Sleeping. The Little Girl bent towards the track and looked at the balloon.
When her bending inclination increased, she fell on the track, at the exact moment a train was approaching the same track.
The little girl was hurt by the stones and started crying “amma”
The Little girl Shouting and Crying was unheard, because of the Train’s Sound.
When Joseph, took his eye off the mobile and just checked for the girl, he found the girl standing and crying on the tracks where the train was Arriving.
Straightaway, he removed his bag pack and ran towards the girl. He Jumped off the Platform and lifted the girl to the platform. But by the time the train came closeby to Joseph.
When he Tried to Jump himself onto the platform, his hand skidded off.
But, Now the train was close by. Joseph has never thought that his life would end like this.
He knew that this was the last try, he again tried jumping off, again his hands skidded. Once his hands skidded he left his hope and felt he is going to die.
But the hands were grabbed strongly and pulled. Joseph also jumped exactly at the right time, where the train missed him by a whisker.
Joseph was laying on the platform, with another guy by his side who pulled him at the right time.
The Guy who pulled him and saved his life was William.
Joseph’s Memory lane cut off. He realized he was with William on a bike ride. These three years, Joseph Knows that William is a BusinessMan, Except that Joseph has never enquired who he is.
Both developed a very strong friendship.
He asked William “William, I wanted to ask this”
“What”
“Why did you come to the station that day”
William grinned “To Propose a Girl”
