So now, I heard that it’s time. You know, I can be real stubborn when I want to be. I’m not going to make this easy for them – watch out! I curl up real tight so that they just leave me alone. I dodged a lot many times when they tried to reach me. But heck, they won’t give up easily it seems! I hear shrieks of pain as I stick my ear close to the wall – maybe now they might leave me in peace. Suddenly, I feel something cold and hard gripping my feet. I’m forced into some weird kind of journey now. I reckon I’m sliding down a deep dark tunnel. Sooo scary man! And suddenly, there’s so much light blinding my eyes. I hear a lot of commotion. Damn, it’s freakin’ cold out here! Suddenly I feel something snap. Good grief…they’ve cut me off from my only connection back there! No…no…oh please no…let me be in there! I’m blood red, wailing my guts out! But what do they care?!
the description is as real as it can be! loved it 🙂
Thanks Ankita! You're always the first one to comment. Appreciate it 🙂
Your posts are so amazingly delightful to read. And once I read the end, then I have to go back to the beginning again with the new-found knowledge I had a totally different image in my head, thinking a POW (prisoner of war) or a person in a psych ward or the like.
He he Elly, that's the whole idea! I want you to read it twice 😉 Thank you – your comments truly make my day 🙂
Cute one, Vinodini 🙂 Your stories put a smile on my face. Always! Good one 🙂
Aww…thanks Aathira! Feels good to know that I'm the reason for that smile.
Lovely! Such a nice description 🙂 I love your stories 🙂
Thanks for reading them regularly Reema. Appreciate it 🙂
How adorable! I imagined a little creature, never thought it would be this one! Swimming, shrieking.. oh my god, You are a genius!
Oh Shailaja, now I'm flying high 😉 Coming from you, that's a great compliment! Thank you for all your support. Love you!
I loved the quote in this one Vinodinii. It is really impressive the stories you are coming up with on a regular basis, there is so much of juice in them, and the portrayal is simply beautiful 🙂
Hey thanks Vinay! I'm so glad you stop by everyday to read my stories. I'm writing short stories for the whole of this month for my participation in UBC. I hope I'm able to pull it off for the rest of the month.
I love reading your short stories, well done.
