“Farewell! O' Friend” by Shreenidhi Ramamurthi

Submitted to Contest #89

The last rays of the Sun disappeared beneath the breeze kissed water. The Fishermen secured their boats before leaving for the day. The coastal guards with their whistles blowing loud, shoved the last of the bathers who seemed to be in a world of their own, out of water.          Partha was fiddling with his phone as always, the rays of which were beginning to get ...

The silver sword stood perched on a rock in the middle of the waterfall, undisturbed for many years. The sword, along with the Castle and the Statue Park that covered the perimeter of the river was a source of terror in the heart of every...

“Let's Do It! ” by Shreenidhi Ramamurthi

Submitted to Contest #78

Shobi sat in a silent corner holding a glass of orange juice, more to have something to hold than to have a drink. She was tired of the never-ending tide of dance followed by music.

“A Strange Conversation ” by Shreenidhi Ramamurthi

Submitted to Contest #76

‘But why did you leave your place? My apologies,’ Neel said adjusting his glasses so that the sunrays perfectly outlined his frameless spectacles, ‘but I still don’t get your point.’ Parvati chuckled.

“The Cookie Bond ” by Shreenidhi Ramamurthi

Submitted to Contest #71

“The best cookies are the ones that melt on your tongue like butter on a hot bread.” – Sahitya recalled the note that came along with the butterscotch cookies on her twentieth birthday. Every year on her birthday, she would receive a basket full of cookies along with a note that shared a secret to baking the best cookies. She had safely locked every note she had ever received in her safe box. ‘<...
