Numbness

Waiting eagerly for the phone to vibrate, I clinged on to it. Why such an expectation from me suddenly, even I'm not sure. Expectation would be a wrong term to use...whims will be more apt here. Right he was when he said I need to work on my vocabulary and expression. It's getting dusty!! Change is the most consistent thing....but when for the good,it's warmly accepted. Today let me promise myself to spend some time with you regularly. You? Who are you? It's me! When i write to you, i talk ti myself.. I communicate to myself through you.
What is telepathy? Is there anything called telepathy? Why do I have to wait for telepathy? It's nauseating to wait eagerly for someone and not being able to call him. No, I need to check myself before I lose my mind....but, why is the thought not leaving me??
It's more than 2 days I'm waiting outside my own house holding a bunch if keys in hand but can't find the right key to open the door!!

Love and only love…The Letter

On entering the house after 48 hours, Akhilesh was welcomed by the fresh smell of the passion flower & rose from his balcony. His 1BHK in Malviya Nagar has been done with utmost love & perfection. He has handpicked everything: be it the flower pots or the furniture. Each furniture was of low height and in sync with the wall colours, the best of the lot being the Japanese dining table placed near the balcony, at a place from where he could sit and watch the open sky. He had to pay a hefty deposit for this house, for getting such a place in Delhi was a dream of many. But, not all were Akhilesh! A smile came on his lips as he recalled the efforts invested behind this small piece of property. He ran his fingers through his long hair and scanned through the room. He has painted the walls with utmost care and each stroke reflected his perfection. Though he has picked up some chicken tandoori and roti from the shop downstairs, he had no appetite. Keeping his shoes on the rack, ...

My Friend Became A Mother- Part 2

Once we settled down with the coffee mugs, Nikhil happily took charge of the baby, giving us enough space to empty our hearts. Seeing me looking at her imploringly, she smirked and casually remarked, “I am loosing my sanity. It’s like I am dealing with a hurricane of very conflicting emotions! And very soon I might end up in an asylum, and suck Nikhil into it too.” “What?” I freaked out. Is it something at work? Is it Nikhil? Is it motherhood? Was Brishti your choice or a family enforced decision? You are not even 30! You could have surely waited! Don’t you have any support?….. etc. etc. Sneha patiently looked on while I blurted out my worst fears. When I stopped for breath, she handed the mug back to me. “Tina, the homecoming of this tiny life has changed everything in our life! Our priorities, our lifestyle, our schedule, our financial planning… everything that you can think off has changed. I really can’t say if it’s for the good or bad. But one thing that I do kn...
