“What does relief mean to you?” She asked.
*”A glass of cool water on a warm day.
*Melodious song on radio after a long interval.
*Crossing the traffic light just before it turns red.
*As a kid, reaching the school before assembly time.
*Not flunking again..
*Achieving targets at office now.
*Cup of coffee...

She looked at her gardener sitting against the wall in the garden under the shade of a mango tree. Deep in thoughts, he looked forlorn. She thought how blessed she was to have a house, a cozy bed and a cool room on this warm afternoon.
He was watching his phone where his granddaughter was taking...
EERILY SILENT

The silence woke her.
There was no sound or sight of traffic from her window.No chirping of birds either.
She called for help but none responded.The house looked eerily empty.
How were she to know that the world had turned a lot worse than that dreadful night 5 years back when...

She hung the beautiful dreamcatcher in her room.
Everyone she knew had said that her aspirations were way too big for her to achieve. She just said, “OK”. And then, she went on to prove all of them wrong.

Mom often said, “people are losing their warmth”. But she didn’t care. Her woollen socks were always there to provide her the much needed warmth. Every year mom would send her 2 new pairs in latest designs.
The unexpected demises during pandemic caught her unawares. That year she felt the chill. She neither had any new...

When emotions run dry,
And there is lack of care,
Cracks may appear any where.
Her cracked heels too had a story,
They ran so deep,
That, they pained and bled,
And cried for desperate help.
A little nurture sometimes, let them breathe some life,
While, further neglect braced them for fight.
But she got...

It was her last journey from home to the crematorium.He wasn’t there when she breathed her last.
As she was being put in a hearse van, he looked up at the balcony, where, she would always stand, wave and see him off.Surprisingly, she was there waving at him.
He looked at the body, and then...

He looked into her kohl rimmed eyes.Calm and serene but big and beautiful.
“How long do I have to wait till we meet again?”. He asked.
She kept smiling as if to say, “When the wait is indefinite, it doesn’t matter how many days, months or years it may be. What matters is, how passionately...

“Your hate for me is so evident”. She said.
“How do you know? I do everything for you”. He said.
“Yes you do, but your eyes have it”. She said.
“Why don’t you then stop being a burden on me and just get lost somewhere?” He spewed hatred.
“I will.The day my love for you...

The phone had an impressive line of songs on its playlist.These were carefully selected and segregated according to the mood of the listener.Favourites, walking, melancholy, happy, peppy etc.However, there was a particular set which was never played.It held random selection of songs which did not let anyone judge the listener or his frame of mind.
Of...
