Disastrous U Turns

It was not green. It was in the shade of chartreuse, when Meena looked at them. A perfect blend of green and yellow. The mango looked delicious even while it was hanging from the tree. The sun was probably preparing itself to go down the horizon and had softened its glaze. The subtle ombre colored…

Classic Claustrophobia

The clouds cleared after the long session of a massive thunderstorm that had created havoc last night. The sky was still covered in a greyish-blue blanket. The earth was still trying to breathe after the backlash it had received from the Rain Gods. The plants looked greener and the neighborhood cleaner. The roads had canals…

Bruised beyond repair

I felt very exhausted today. All I needed was some self-pampering to forget the entangled hassles of the office. A good spa and a relaxed grooming session seemed perfect! Without any delay, I dialed the number saved in my phone and my appointment was confirmed within no time. As a loyal customer, probably this is…

Adopted Happiness

It was about midnight when the black Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350X made its way with a thunderous sound into the compound of the housing complex.

X for xenophobic

W for Watch.

Pic Courtesy :Google Wasim came running from the balcony and hugged his Ammi who was rushing from the kitchen to the dining hall a multiple times. She yelled at wasim, “Please finish your breakfast and don’t throw away the milk in the bathroom. I am keeping an eye on you. Hurry up, we are getting…

V for Vanish!

Pic Courtesy : Google Veena was a rebellious child. She had always questions about the ways of life. Probably asking questions made her somewhat different from others. People who had less questions to ask always used to fit in the society well. Years passed on and she got a scholarship to study abroad. Her dream…
