Dear Friend
An Open Letter to the Beautiful Souls on whom Life’s been Hard… Life is hard, friend! Remember the time when you craved for a chocolate pastry and it was in front of you in a jiffy? Or the time you fell down and someone came to clean your wounds? Or the time you achieved what…

Love
“Hey, looking at the album again, huh?” asked Harsh. “Yeah, feels so good to watch this,” smiled Ray. “So, how’s things going for both of you?” “We are not together since a year,” answered Ray, slight pain and slight peace in his eyes. “WHAT? You are kidding me, right? And even so, how can you…

The Genuine Smile
Yesterday, I was walking down the street. Rather, jogging. My t-shirt read,”Single and independent” which I truly am. I was lost in my thoughts when suddenly I fell over a rock. My ankle got badly twisted and I had developed a sprain. Just then, a guy, well-built, who, apparently was also jogging came over and…

Long distance love
“But can’t we give it just one try?” “I am afraid, Jia, no. I don’t want to end this chapter in an ugly note. Let’s end this happily,” he said. Her eyes had swollen and dark circles were prominent. Her fair skin was flushed completely and her nose and cheeks were reddish. His eyes too…
