The entire manor was covered in gleaming warm lights, as if it was on fire itself when it was clearly not. The jazz music was bursting out of the casement windows and hundreds of men and girls travelled around from garden to garden, room to room in pride and in fetching demeanor holding on to the cocktail glasses in their gloved or shining hands. They smoked cigarettes and cigars out of blood red metal tins as if it was their last time, they smirked, laughed and flirted with everyone. I rushed towards the manor pulling my hands through a bla...

Grandma kaneez laid on her poignant hospital bed with white bed sheets and puffed up pillows. The ventilator beeping gradually with every breath Laila took. The sun rays felt like a pain to the young adult eyes but grandma kaneez’s grey eyes shone like the diamonds. Her wrinkled skin told volumes of her hardships and family life. Laila stepped closer to the bed, as she moved forward a shadow befell on the white tiled floor, the one that makes you hate hospitals. Grandma held her hand forward towards laila’s body. The moment Laila held it, s...

18th September, was the day when i started to feel humanly hands around me. Soft, alluring and warm. It took me a while to realize that I was no more in my mother’s liquid-y womb but in a real, cold world. A world, in which we live and die so soon that we are not able to grip the essence of life nor the true meaning of love.
