Hello, Hasan! Did you hear the announcement? Our train is about to arrive!

That's correct! It's going to Chittagong. I'm so excited!

Me too! Do you know which platform it will stand at?

Yes, it's at platform number 4. We should head over there soon.

Have you got the tickets, Ria?

Great! We need to wait in the waiting area before the train arrives, right?

Exactly! It's important to be patient and follow the instructions.

Why do they stress on having a ticket before traveling?

I suppose it's to make sure all passengers are accounted for and to avoid any penalties.
