MY INNER WRITER

-
"She was the only magic left in my world". It feels like yesterday that she was standing in front of me and making plans of what we were gonna do when she return Bangalore from her home at Bombay. She didn't want to go, but I insist her because I want to find some job as I was not writing and my articles wasn't selling individually, so I decided to send her to her home till I don't find any job and she can prepare for CA as there was many good coaching in Bombay. So I decided to send her. 

And when she got on the train, my heart started beating faster because I was gonna live without her after 2 years, and she was little upset too, but I distract her and make her sit comfortable in train. And train start moving.
When I came back home, I got a new energy to find a job so that I can call her here as soon as I can. So I start looking for jobs and many companies didn't hire cause they wanted someone experienced, and after 6 months I got a job and the salary was also good, so I decide to call her here, so I call her, she was very excited and said that, I am coming from tomorrow's train, but I said that I book a ticket of friday, but she refuse and said to come yesterday, so I said ok, and we both were very excited to meet both of us.

On 28 December 2013 she was coming from train, and she's gonna arrive at 5:30 so I reach there at 5:00. It was 5:45 but none update came from the train, and suddenly an announcement came that, the train coming to Bangalore has caught fire at the outer. I was blank but then a face of her came in my mind and I ran at the accident place. There was a mess, everyone was crying and finding there family, and when I go to her coach and find her, I saw that she was lying under the seat only her hand was out of the seat and she was holding the chain which I gave her on her 20th birthday. Around 26 people died and 32 got injured, I wasn't able to express my emotions, and when I came home after doing all the paper work, I find my home very empty and after sometime my hand automatically go to the typewriter and I started writing, that day I realise, "My inner writer came out, when she accomodate inside me".

Hope : A short story

-
The last page of the diary turned and the man starts writing, "how foolish we humans are that, we fall for the things that we know won't be possible for us, just like a dead soldier's wife waiting for her husband's letter, just like a son is longing for his dead father to come by one day. But these are the things which keeps one alive which we call 'hope,' which makes a dead person alive for others, and isn't it beautifully foolish how a thing which cannot be happen makes one alive in a different manner, for instance, I'm on my deathbed, falling in love with life .

A letter to Emilie

-
Hey Emilie, I know that you never had a hero in your sky although you have eyes like a fallen star, I know that you don't like to celebrate your birthday but you have kept the necklace that your mother gave you on your 17th birthday, I know that you love late night talking but you also love the early morning tea, I know you are a good listener but you also need a listener at the end of the day. And I also know that it's your career which has taken you so far from me, but I have kept your kindergarten scrapbook, your first certificate from art competition, your first piggy bank by your grandmother, your first essay about your father, and some memories, whenever you'll come, just sit and we'll talk about them with two cups of tea under the stars.

Her 5 minutes: A short story

-
He became the love he never received . She was lying on the bed at 4 in the morning. That's when the alarm goes off, her boyfriend turns it off and after 5 minutes it goes off again, and her boyfriend turns it off again. Days pass, and the same thing happens every day, she tells him every day to turn it off. On 14th February 2019, she got a letter, "You kept on asking me why I set two alarms in the morning, that because I know that I am here only for a few days and those 5 minutes in the morning are very precious to me as I know that you are very busy whole day so I took those 5 minutes in the morning to hug you so that I can stay with you more, so I that I can keep you a little more, as I can't remember in my childhood someone hold me to hug and I don't want that to happen to you, Take Care." Another call in the evening of 14th February came and there was nothing but silence.
