14867 - Who else for the train?

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Vicky Baklessi

The station was filled with people. The pieces and the pawns were far too many to play only one game. The Master and the disciple wondered if the train would be sufficient to transfer them. Also they could not forget the fact that in chess, the exchange is characterized by the dead pawns and pieces and even off the people did not show it, all of them understood that this trip would not be like all the other. Some inhabitants carried all their belongings and their ticket did not describe their return, to the degree that they wondered if there was of any meaning. Nevertheless they were holding it in their hand, like time ago when they were buying coupons. This train was different. This was the only certain thing thought the disciple, without telling the Master so that he doesn’t disrupt his thought during the analysis. Finally this happened due to the voice of the stationmaster who warned the passengers for the arrival of the train.
