Punctuality lesson

A friend from the UAE wanted to meet me in Chennai where I presently reside.

I suggested a meeting place. As agreed, I got ready to meet him, but unexpectedly heavy rains lashed the city. I took out an umbrella, travelled by train and reached the place. By that time, it began raining more heavily and I thought my friend would not be able to make it. But at the exact time we had planned to meet, someone called out for me. I noticed my friend, fully drenched, greeting me. I appreciated his punctuality. “Thank UAE for that. We learnt the value of punctuality there,” said my friend. I readily nodded my head.
