Mission accomplished..

Everyone was very busy with the preparations. It was the farewell party for twelfth class. Being the head girl of the school she was supposed to do the anchoring, which meant tremendous responsibility. Everyone in eleventh class was supposed to stay in the school till evening and even come the next day, which was Sunday. The main hall had to be decorated, gifts had to be packed and all the programs had to be prepared well. She had to take care of all these things with the help of other girls. The head boy Aram and his team were supposed to take care of the catering and the related arrangements.

The best part about coming to school on holidays was, one could come in their most desirable clothes. Rest whole year the school was very particular about the school-dress. She wanted to look her best the next day and took complete fifteen minutes to decide. Finally to feel special she chose a white frill top and long black skirt in contrast. While doing her hair-style the only thoughts that engulfed her were that of Aram. She had been harboring secret crush on Aram since her friends had been teasing her about him. She was not sure how Aram felt about her, but she was very happy in her own fantasies. Though publicly she always denied such feelings but the presence of Aram always made her conscious.

When she reached school her eyes were desperately looking for Aram. She was little disappointed to know that he was not in school premises. She seriously got back to her work. She was going through the list of programs when suddenly she saw Aram getting off his bike in front of door. She moved towards the door..smiling within and expecting something, not knowing precisely what it was. Aram was approaching her and she was staring at him. The whole world came to a standstill. Aram wanted to say something but got confused. He said…’Are you done with the preparations? Have you checked the list? Then he paused……a long pause…she was enjoying the whole situation. It was precisely she had wished for—“knock-out”. Aram was out of words but kept standing, trying to make a talk. It was as if one wants something but doesn’t know about it.


Finally she took the reign. She asked if he wanted to say something. He scratched his head, looked down and said no. she dismissed him, turned back , smiled and muttered “mission accomplished”.

Mystic Mechanic

Lost in woods      She looked here and there helplessly but no one was around. In hills it is difficult to get help. The local population is very less, that too distributed sparsely across various villages. She had no idea where she was. She had left Nainital at four in the evening and she was trying to make it to Ramnagar that same evening. She had a quarterly meet of her company at a resort in Ramnagar, famous for its Jim Corbett National Park . Now there were many beautiful resorts in Ramnagar one after the other, where tourists flocked for their wild-life adventures. These resorts on the bank of the river Kosi made a perfect destination for weddings and conference for corporate. Everything was going fine when on third day of her conference she decided to break loose and visit her aunt in Nainital. Her aunt had insisted that she stay overnight as it was not safe to drive in hills in evening. But the road was so good and drive so scenic she ignored all...

Meeting the philosopher..

This was her first job and she had come with her uncle to see the college. Her uncle also happened to teach in the same college and this had put her quite in ease. She knew she had a support to fall back on. She was quite terrified to be in a campus where all the students were from very affluent families. This was an engineering college in national capital region which ran primarily on capitation fee. Hence the students who could manage to take admission in this college were born to rich or super-rich parents. We call it ‘ovarian –lottery’. She was wearing a maroon cotton suit, dupatta taken like a shawl, which made her look ‘desi’ yet elegant. She was quite unsure how she was going to tackle the ‘Porsche ambience ‘of the college. But she was determined to make it. After taking a round of the college her uncle left her at her department. There were three people in the department. Two middle-aged men who were supposedly the professors and a young man, whom she guessed to ...

Lost kiss.

Most missed moment of my life (a secret love story) She was delighted        to accompany her rich aunt back to Delhi. Ever since she was young she had seen her aunt as the center of attraction in all the weddings and functions of her house. Today her fancy of visiting her aunt’s place would be fulfilled. Though aunt had grown old, but her expensive jeweler and clothes still flaunted her lavish lifestyle. They finally reached       Delhi and entered the beautiful apartment-complex in one of the porsche areas of city. As soon as she entered the artistically designed modern complex she couldn’t believe her eyes. Well laid parks, people having carefree walks and children having all the fun in the world, made it the perfect place in the world. She was imbibing everything         with awe and admiration when suddenly her heart missed a beat. Was he really there in the lobby? At first she thought she had been mis...
