“What pains you the most?” asked the doctor to the depressed young patient encouraging her to talk about her recent heart break.

Dad taught the value of money to his son since the beginning. However, he realised that he went a little too far in imparting his knowledge when the son put him in the cheapest available old age home since taking care of dad at home was proving costlier.

Hearing the sound of heavy machinery, I looked out of the window dreading the sight.
