April 1

Varsha R

Submitted to Contest #87

It was 5:00 a.m. The alarm clock let out the scream, loud enough to wake the entire residents of George street. He freed from the blanket that covered him and shut the alarm. He checked his mobile phone on his nightstand. "It's April 1. The day has come Noah" he said to himself. "It's the day I had waited for so long." He put his jacket on for a walk along the street. It was cold and like every other day Jess joined him. "Good morning. You seem so happy today" she said. "Yeah. it's a big day. How about you joining me for breakfast?" He aske...

Wrong person, wrong time

Submitted to Contest #81

It all started when I was flipping through the pages of my favorite novel 'Pride and Prejudice' while sitting in a library with stacks of books lined sequentially. I was fully focused on the novel. Darcy and Elizabeth's love story almost made me forget the real world. While I was so into the book, I heard someone approaching from behind. "Hi! Are you Joseph?" a girl in her brown turtleneck and short skirt asked me. I turned down the book and replied "Yeah! Do I know you?" "I'm Kayla. We both went to the music class together in the 5th grad...

The gift of family

"Just give it a try. It will be fun,” my friend insisted. He kept on pestering me until I said yes. I accepted just to shut his mouth. He had eagerly waited for me to spill yes. As soon as I spit it out, he ran to his room and brought a big fat journal.“Is this your album of stamp collection? Why does it look similar to a PhD research book?” I questioned."I know that you are annoyed. But stamp collecting is fun. It’s been my favourite hobby for days." Ayaan declared. Ayaan is obsessed with stamp collection. He wanted me to join him. I really...

Life with Fenix and Binx

Submitted to Contest #78

"Good morning, dear” I greeted my husband who woke up late after attending the meeting all night.“Are you okay, now?” I asked him, handing his coffee.“Yeah, I’m good. It’s been a hectic night with all those international clients” he sighed.“Where’s Binx?” he asked and called out her name.She came waddling, more like a quick run and jumped on to my husband’s chest. She is the cutest, with brown-white color combination. She weighs about 0.9 kg and loves the way my guy lifts her with his palm.It’s been 2 years since we adopted her from the anim...

Mysterious future

Varsha R

My eyes opened to an extremely silent atmosphere. My hands were twisted up with tubes and my face was covered with an oxygen mask. I tried to wake up but then I realised that my physical condition wouldn’t co-operate. I was in a complete confused state.I heard footsteps approaching me. The door opened a crack and a woman in her mid-forties peeked through. Her face brightened as she witnessed me. She placed the latte she was holding, on the table nearby and sat beside me. “How are you feeling, dear” I felt the sweetness in her voice.&nbs...

I sipped my coffee and gazed out the snowy scene beyond my window. I observed three friends wandering around the park happily and cheerfully. That scene reminded me of something. Yeah! The girls reminded me of my friends who were all together all the time. We completed our schooling together in London. Our school days were the best. We had a whale of time then. High school days are one most beautiful days in a person’s life. You learn a lot, enjoy a lot and grow more. I had the most beautiful days at high school that nothing in my life would...

The miracle

Varsha R

It was one unforgettable evening. I returned home from college after a long weary day. I threw my paper files on the writing desk and relaxed myself on the couch in my living room. I am a young girl in my twentyish, chasing for having a determined perfect life. I always dreamt of having a flawless life. A life with everything I ask for, a life with no disappointments, no failures… But practically, there is no such life with 100% success and 0% failure. Life isn’t a bed of roses. It took time for me to realise what actual life is… That ev...

Worth the wait

Varsha R

Submitted to Contest #49

The waiting room where I have been waiting for 15 minutes is completely filled with zero noise. That’s because I am the only person in the waiting room. I am highly strung. The tick tock of the clock hanging on the wall is making me get irritated. I am such a chatterbox and this ‘no-person in the room to talk with’ scenario is getting me high. Ah! I’m bored. Let me introduce myself. I’m Jane, from India. I graduated two years ago and now I work in a private company. I am a single child which means my parents are lucky so that they have to t...

What's your excuse?

"I am a writer. I love to write. But why don't I get ideas flourishing in my mind?", mumbled Kathy, a freelance writer. It was a pleasant evening. She put down her pen and marched towards her kitchen, made herself some potato burritos (her favorite eatable). She was worried about the deadline that was nearing and still she had no idea on the content. Kathy often experienced 'the blank page syndrome'. For her, starting was always the hardest part. Sometimes she underrated herself that she was not a good writer. It takes some time and effort t...

The hardest Goodbye

Varsha R

Submitted to Contest #44

"Goodbye my dear," said a woman with tears filled in her eyes. She was the one who really cared about me. She was the one who loved me more than anyone else."Goodbye mom," I said standing at the entrance of my house. I completed my schooling at Porur, a small town in Tamil Nadu. And I wanted my graduation to be done in a city. I took up this decision because of two reasons. The first reason is that my town doesn't provide much facility for higher education. So I had to shift elsewhere. The other reason was that I had to relieve my mom from m...
