The single mom potted a plant every time she was on the verge of losing hope to the unfair world. The plants kept growing beautifully and never let her lose hope.
She spotted a lone gerbera one day, spreading its orangish charm in the balcony full of potted greens. Was it a sign of victory?
Indeed it...

She was an excellent make-up artist who could make anyone look beautiful with her flawless make up.
I realised how good she was at her trade when I accidentally saw her without make up. Her face was full of scars inflicted by her ‘loving’ husband.
Make-up sure did wonders for her too.

Feeling ashamed of herself, sobbing and dreading dad’s reaction, she called him from the hostel to let him know that she had flunked her University examinations.

Every lane-bylane , nook and corner looked fascinating. He imagined her in every part of the city. May be she had a coffee here or a burger there or perhaps some time waited for a bus on the spot where he was standing. There was a spring in his steps as if he was going...

Amidst giggles and gossips, they pulled out their dresses from their suitcases and put them on. They helped each-other put on the make-up.
They forgot being crazy since last 20 years while taking care of husbands and children. This reunion of college friends was an occasion to relive the old times again. And as each...

She looked at the sea intently and asked him pointing at the horizon, “what happens when you reach there?”
“You find new horizons lying ahead”. He replied.
“I wonder how the other side of the shore looks like”. She sighed.
He gave her an atlas and said,”why don’t you find it yourself”.

He spotted her in the airport food court after ages, sharing a meal with her family. Her appearance had changed completely. From waist long, jet black to beautiful burgundy shoulder length hair. From traditional salwar kameezes to fitted jeans and top. Only the smile was the same.

“What pains you the most?” asked the doctor to the depressed young patient encouraging her to talk about her recent heart break.
“To see that I don’t reside in his heart even in my own dreams”. Said the patient sadly.
A soundless snap took place somewhere deep inside and a sudden tear appeared from nowhere. The pain...

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.
For once, dad wished he had given importance...
