I go through all my old posts where I have written about experiencing blasts, floods and other calamities in Mumbai, and I come back to what I have been feeling since I woke up yesterday morning. Sickw ith worry, but a very different kind of sick. A very different kind of worry.
I am not there. [...]
Attacking me
Demons, the real ones..
*The post before the last one*
Normally her demons arose in the night. They turned the normally flippant, brilliantly blunt and straight answering girl into a blubbering, confused and sobbing girl. The world knew her as a very arrogant and collected person. She bounced back from all her problems and issues didn’t she?She did, but [...]
alone
“Go,” he said. And sent her off. All alone to face her demons.
A quick unfinished story
Friends Forever. Turned into blossoming infatuation. Forever couple. Is it love? Maybe not yet..
Distance, misunderstandings, arguments, fights and lies. A couple broken before love could happen. Friends again. Happy for each other’s happiness.
He falls for someone again. She is happy with someone else again. They are happy in their own worlds. What could be, is [...]
Not a child, not an adult
I have been often told I think too much and too far. This post is a result of that.
Browsing through youtube videos I came across the videos of Chote Ustaad, a singing contest between kids. I started with the grand finale episode, two really pretty girls singing beautifully. One had the most beautiful, sweet and [...]
Innnn-Out. Innnn-Out.
Breathe. Breathe harder. Slow. Innnn-Out. Innnnn-Out.
He had “quit” smoking. Except for yesterday when he had a couple. And a few days before that when he had a few at a party. But he had quit. Really.

He was choking on his emotions. [...]
Alone..
She sets the table. Puts out the soup, toasts the bread, heats the mushrooms. Absentmindedly she picks up the red handled spoons from the holder and lays them next to the mismatched plates. The microwave pings and the oven buzzes. Both the mushrooms and the bread are done. She sets it out on the small [...]
The spoils of a conquest
A pure white hair-band lying on the floor. In front of the drawn curtains.
The roller chair, abandoned between the room.
Flowers knocked over from the glass vase. The vase, amazingly, unbroken.
The laptop lying on its side with its charging cord dangling from the side.
The book, the page you were reading preserved so preciously till now, on [...]
There was a girl
She had a strong voice, but it was pleasant and confident to the ears. Very masculine. Too heavy, but soft. Never sounds like what I think it sounds like.
A large frame, broad shoulders and an interesting, open face. God, I wish I was tiny, I tower over everyone. I wish I had even a [...]
Counting the Kilos..
Seven days, and two meals consumed. And counting… the days.
This is a confession. And this is an awakening. I hope.
When I was a teen, around 17 years old, I wanted to look good for someone. I had read a lot about people who ate and puked it out, then they wouldn’t put on weight. I [...]
