The fruit of his hard labour stared at him. It was the result of his hard work all through these years. The official launch was just a few minutes away. There was also a party hosted that evening to mark his success. But there was something that wasn’t right. He was supposed to feel happy about it. But he didn’t. Some of his colleagues even […]

Image source I don’t know if it is a good omen or a bad one. I just can’t figure out. There have been good times before and there have been bad times too. But all those things happened then. It has been a long time since our paths crossed and now that they have again, I don’t know what is in store. There was a […]
It began like a lot other stories, once upon a time. A story so beautiful, seemed like a fairy tale. Everything happened so quickly but I wasn’t complaining as it was all good.

Photo prompt: Melaine Greenwood She never thought that this day would be possible. She had struggled all along but now all those sacrifices seemed worth it. “Ma, make yourself comfortable while I take my place in the cockpit”, said her daughter. Tears welled up in her eyes. Her mind went back in time when her little girl had said, “Ma, look there is an aeroplane […]
I walked out of the place in a fit of anger as I couldn’t take it any longer. I had enough of all the arguments. Every day I worked in a frenzy to keep it out of my mind. But then everything kept haunting me all the more. I was there peacefully having my lunch and what happened later ruined it all. For once I […]

I was meeting her for breakfast as this was the time of the day that she liked the most- morning. When I knew that she was back in town, I couldn’t be happier. It was years since I last met her.
