"I called the cab driver twice, but there was no response. My mind almost accepted that it was gone. My friend and I ran towards the gate while still calling, and that's when I saw the cab bhaiya standing there, holding the laptop bag and talking to the security guards," wrote the student in the Reddit post. "The rush of calmness I felt in that moment OMG. I immediately went to him and took the bag. He explained that he had left his phone inside the car and came to the gate himself to return the bag, and the security guards stopped him."
