“Amrita’s Diary”

26th February 2002
Ahmedabad


Dear Diary,
It’s been a long time since I last scribbled. Many things have changed since then. My relationship with Aditya has strengthened a lot. He’s sweet, nice & responsible. A kind of man that I’ve always dreamt of! Fate has never been so nice to me.

No dear, I am not in doubt. I’m just afraid! Papa’s health has been not so well these days, it’s a tough time for our family. I’m in two minds whether to tell mom about Aditya in these situations. But she did notice the change in me. Aditya, you’ve changed me a lot! Never before I’ve been so happy and cheerful in my life. You’re a magical person! Revitalizing my soul by the touch of the magic wand! I feel I’m complete.

Am I blushing? Look what you’ve done to me! You say that you’re having a tough time there; staying away from me… well my situation is no better! Adi, you’re the finest thing that has ever happened to me. Every time I’m near you, I get overwhelmed with this desire to grab you close to my heart. Don’t worry Adi, I’ll let mom know about us very soon.

Amrita

Amrita closed her diary and tried Aditya’s no. in her cell phone.

“Damn! Network error. When these people will provide better connectivity to the loved ones?” uttered Amrita in disgust.

A stale smell, which was in the air for quite sometimes now, was becoming prominent.

“Is something burning?”

Amrita opened the window near her bed, she seemed worried.

“Mom! Seems like there’s a fire somewhere in the neighbourhood!”

Close Apart (Chapter-32)

Close Apart Chapter-32 “Shopping Day” Amrita took Komal for her wedding day shopping! Komal tried a lot to dodge Amrita but then she was not so resourceful when it came to denying someone. “Look, all my life I’ve been either studying or working, actually I didn’t get real time to dress-up or to party around. So I am what you’ll call a fashion disaster” confessed Amrita. “Don’t worry! I’ll Help You out! You won’t be a fashion disaster on your wedding day.” Komal smiled and replied. After sometime, Amrita was lining up in front of the trial room while holding few dazzling dresses. “I know the decision was a bit hasty, but after so many days without him, I don’t have the patience of staying away anymore! I know, you must be thinking that getting married in a registrar’s office is such a boring thing to do, but for me the companionship is much more important than a fancy wedding! And even Aditya seems to be quite supportive about this.” Amrita finished as she went in one of the trial room...

Close Apart (Chapter-2)

Close Apart Chapter – 2 “They meet…” “British Council, 5:00 pm, Hmm” The reason Aditya was thinking so much that day, because meeting Amrita at 5’o clock would mean that he would have to leave his office half an hour ago than his usual time. And that would mean that he’ll have to take this matter to his manager’s concern. “At 5:00!! What for? “ “Actually I have an appointment… with my… Dentist.” God knows why Dentists get involved in these appointments!! So, there he was! Out of his office, half an hour earlier than usual.Aditya was feeling a little uneasy. Actually he was never comfortable with girls. An issue which was of a major concern for his fellow colleagues. Many a times his friends have arranged blind dates for him, but all in vain!! But this time it is little different. Anyone who had known Aditya would have gone through a major shock viewing him talk to a girl, but Aditya knew he had a header here. Actually, Amrita was in the same class, in which Aditya used to study… “So yo...

The Way Beyond (Prologue)

I woke up!  It was dark, tried opening  my eyes, didn't do much help. As if I was inside a void with only darkness around me .  I opened my eyes and the darkness flooded in! I tried remembering where I was, tried remembering something that  could explain why I am here, all in vain. My head hurt and I couldn't recall  anything. It felt like the time has collapsed on itself and now there is nothing else, well except for this dark void.  They say your lizard brain wakes up in these situations. From the depths of your consciousness, and attempts to guide your instincts to safety. I see something now! Maybe my eyes have finally adjusted themselves to this darkness. Something familiar comes into my vision, laying in front of me. A leather spined book on top of a towel, an old leather bound book. I looked around, I was sitting in the shade of a tree. Can you still call it a shade when there is nothing but darkness around? Like if a tree falls in...
