Don’t spill the Beans

Spill the beans

Shayan and Riyanka are cousins and best friends, with the auspicious occasion of Rakhi round the corner they had decided upon a time when they would chalk out plans for the day to make the most of it via video calling. The curtain rises to show Riyanka relaxing on the couch and munching on a pack of chips and typing something on her laptop. She looks at the wall clock and starts a video call with her Shayan.

Shayan: Hi

Riyanka: hey, can u see me?

Shayan: I can see you but you are barely audible.

Riyanka: My screen froze, just give me a while.

Shayan: Ok, I can see you and hear you, all good.

The Sprawling Villa

The Sprawling Villa

The Sprawling Villa

Emmalie’s room was in a complete clutter when I sneaked in to test the waters about her groundwork and I happened to step on her Dolly, the doll just as Emmalie, draped in pink. Nevertheless, I found something enchanting about its eyes; it showed every sign of unexplained things.

I being an ardent listener and a doting observer always looked forward to something unexpectedly amidst the accustomed. My thrust for exploring the unknown took a flight the next day right after the everlasting sensation I felt when Steve touched my soul the cryptic cognizance added to the grandeur.

Time does not heal everything

Time does not heal everything

Everyone says time heals any broken piece but sometimes being too careerist hurts your relationship and so time does not heal everything. Relationship is like a glass ball which when dropped breaks, you can glue it but it will never be like the old one.

Career is like a rubber ball, it will bounce back to you.

TIme does not Heal Two young girls and a young boy, probably in their late teens in the balcony discussing relationships, engaged in a deep conversation trying to make a reason out the few experiences they have had for all these years. Poorvi and Manav are already committed to each other; Maansi is Manav’s cousin and best friend. Poorvi flaunts her hourglass figure by leaning against the wall to keep Manav’s eyes hooked up on her; the peplum top and pencil skirt accentuate her beauty. Maansi is more of a geek who likes to pay attention to the details and reads between the lines to probe deep into the pneumatic locus and come up with solutions and hence she is the apple of everyone’s eye. Manav is in his casual with his nerdy glasses on and Maansi wears a short yellow dress with her hair undone, she lets her hair swing with the touch of wind blowing and soothing the young souls.  Slow fade in. Maansi holds a Garfield coffee mug in her hand, and Poorvi is busy filing her nails, Manav looks disturbed. Maansi is standing in the extreme left; Poorvi is in the middle and Manav in the extreme right corner.

The Infinite Loop

The Infinite Loop

The story lies with the infinite loop of waiting for her counterpart

The wait was going to come to an end she thought while entering the premises of her college. With a heavy heart she looked at the walls that housed a kit of memories, little did they know that they were making memories and she smiled to herself, time flies she thought to herself. Just few years ago, she had stepped in this city away from home but now after five years, this beautiful journey ended.

Her wait was fruitful, now it was the right time to disclose about her prince charming to her family she thought but securing a job seemed more lucrative. She was supposed to assemble an hour later but she could not hold back herself and came back as soon as she could for she would be leaving the city in a month or so.

All throughout these years, they yearned for each other. She had a perfect plan chalked at the back of her mind, after he decides a location or city where he wants to settle down, she would accompany him, she would also look for a job in the same city and nobody would stop them for they would have a reliable source of income. Sharon’s roommates penalized her for being glued to her cell phone, she was even mocked at by her roommates when they found that she applied make up at midnight right before a video chat.

Betrayal in Relationship

Betrayal in Relationship

Betrayal always does not mean disloyalty.

Betryal

“It does not make me more or less committed to the relationship,” said the newly married Emilie to her mother-in-law who happened to be the professor of the best college in town. She expected the educated woman to understand and interpret her situation. She was born and brought up in a Christian household, sent to a convent and she was soft, docile and benevolent from the outside, only a careful reading of her inside out would give away the impression of the rebellious thoughts that her mind nurtured secretly.

Atul was the one and only son, a devout Brahman and the only tragic flaw in his character was that he was madly in love with a girl from a Christian household. He was madly in love with his childhood darling Emilie and he had decided not to settle for anyone apart from her, he was headstrong and timid right from his childhood and his mother wished he was a bit flexible so that she could convince him to marry off their caste but at last she gave up and accepted Emilie as a part of her own family.
