Mom- The universal language

That is why they are called 'MOM'

               You wake up early in the morning to realize it's late for the last bus... You jump off the bed, take a quick bath and run to the office neatly dressed. But there goes the last bus, just when you are right at the stop. You get a cab driver to answer the call after a long try. Finally, you reach the office, rushing inside to start up your hectic schedule. Your friends accompany you to the cafeteria listening to your morning adventures!!! Gossip is in the air with work-humid in the cabin. Finishing up the day's work you reach home to toast yourself on the bed... Then there comes your mom's call. the sweet voice of her irritates you, "ya.. ya. I had my dinner.. am fine ma.. soo tired out of work, will call you later. take care bye.. "! click!... there you go into the land of dreams...

At the other end of the phone, she smiles to herself. she is happy to hear her daughter's voice after her long cool day which goes like this...
Woke up at five in the morning, take a quick bath in that cold water.. cooked for all which is always paid back with criticism about how normal it is. Packed food for beloved husband and son..sending them to workplaces. Got ready for the office in hurry, ran to the bus stop, and reached the office after a great journey, crushed by a bunch of hefty ladies. Entered the office sweating to sit under a fan that might never work... Had food in hurry to finish the works.. no time to talk.. returned home thinking what to cook for dinner. Husband and son busy watching the match, do not go to the kitchen so as not to disturb her. Doing the dishes was thinking about her daughter and spoke with her for long 20 seconds.. and that made her day...Toasting herself to bed after hearing her husband's tale of the day. there she goes to the world of...' morning breakfast, telephone bills, EMIs, daughters wedding arrangements.....' 

Wala she is having a great sleep !!!!

The Tale of Love

THE MEOW @ 3AM Meerrrowww......mreo... I could hear this vague sound getting more intense as time passed. I tried harder to open my eyes for I was having a beautiful film made inside my eyes. I could see only darkness or dint I open my eyes yet? Oh, yea, it was midnight and that explained the darkness. ‘ Mrew ’ that feeble voice rang again inside my ears. I turned my face left to see Pichku standing on her two legs supporting on the bed facing my ears so that her sound waves will penetrate directly into my eardrums. Gosh, I wished my bed had longer legs!!! ‘It's 3 a.m., what do you want?’ my eyes asked Pichku. With her dilated eyes she replied ‘What the hell, it's early morning for me, come on feed me!!’...MREEWW I threw my blanket away and got off the bed to be lead by that little four-legged creature. She pointed her ears back to make sure I was following her. She directed me to the kitchen and sat. Thanks to people who manufactured readymade pet food. I put ...

The Plot - A short Story

Anna gnashed her teeth while waiting for Sid to arrive. He was half an hour late than the time they agreed to meet. She tapped her feet restlessly as she looked all around the cafe. The entire room was painted with coffee shade and doodle works of coffee-beans here and there. Antique lamps were lit and hung on the wall, soothing music played in the background creating a good ambiance. There were ten tables inside and only three were taken including hers. Waiters dressed in red uniforms walked to and fro to get and deliver the orders. One of them approached Anna twice. She gestured to him to wait. As she looked outside she could see the Sun getting ready to sleep, spreading the yellowish-red blanket all over the sky.  The air-conditioned room started to give her chills and she sprung to the restroom. When nature is calling you to have to go! As she came back to her seat she saw Sid there. She sat facing him and called the waiter.  “Two coffees”, she ordered without asking Sid a...
