Blue Mirages

I had just completed my project work at home and was on my way to college for the third review. As I was en route, my phone rang—Parthu was calling. “Your guy is here,” she said. It had been a while since I’d last seen Yuva, ever since he finished college. A flurry of emotions hit me; I hoped he was still single. I quickly asked Parthu to…[contd…..]

First step to forever

I was dressed in a dhoti and topless, feeling the cold and rain as I traveled from the cottage to Tirumala. Nobody seemed to mind me freezing without shirt or a Towel to cover. Whereas Praagna is draping her cream and maroon saree , was smiling like a child in a candy shop or like my mom after…[contd….]

A Bittersweet cup of Life

I walked into the college canteen. It had been a while since I had lunch with Sahana. The noise of students and the clatter of trays around me barely registered; my mind was focused on why she had called me this time.

When I spotted Sahana sitting at our usual corner table, a smile immediately spread across her face. I slid into the chair across from her. She started, “He called me for a movie.” I asked who, and she… [contd…]

Jayanthi smiled as she looked across the table at Shloka and Meghana. “It’s been so long since we visited Chennai. How are our relatives doing there?” she asked with a hint of nostalgia in her voice.

Jayanthi replied, “That sounds lovely. Let’s plan it for another day,” her eyes lighting up at the thought. “We should plan a trip and what about the dresses? How about going to Bara Bazar and… [contd…]

Plumeria and Pony

I was waiting in the hall while she was changing her clothes to go to the concert. I had been waiting there for 10 minutes, and I couldn’t trust the traffic in Bangalore since we had to travel from Banashankari to Phoenix Market City. Arya was still rummaging through her wardrobe when she called me. I went to look at her.

She was wearing a white tee and beige pants, which surprisingly went well with her dusky tone. I asked her, “I said we should wear red, right? That’s why I’m in red and black today.” She replied, “I just felt too cute in this,” and winked at me. It had been a… [contd…]

That's not Gojo (Plumeria and Pony pt.2)

This is Arya, taking over the narration from Vikram for a while. So, after all the confessions and the concert fiasco, this guy kissed me for the first time. You might think, “Aren’t you two married? Didn’t you take further steps?” The answer is, not yet, actually.

The reason is that we’re both shy about it. We decided to fully know and understand each other before taking things further. But we both know that we like each other a lot. I’m not sure whether he sees me as someone he’s fine being intimate with. I mean, I don’t mind—in fact, I’m totally for it. I hope… [contd…]
