Is she the fish out of water? - Episode 5

Sahat could see Pooja standing with furious face. He didn't know what made her to throw her face to Adhira. But he was sure about one thing. Shouting at her never makes the situation good, he wanted to analyse her feel. And he felt that as his responsibility.

Without asking any question Sahat drove the car. The siblings travelled with a cold calmness. On the way Sahat could see the struggle of his sister to rollback the overflowing tears. Her cheeks were shivering, nose consciously shrunken to control the rolling tears.

But what made her to worry this much?

Her struggle made him understand that she have been hurt and there is no artificial expressions in her face. Sahat wanted to ask the reason for her melancholy but he was scared for that too. 'She always take things complicated. If I convince her now she will scream at me, if don't convince her she would scream at me. Anyways Sahat you are going to get some heart piercing screams but please be mentally prepared she don't mean things when she scream. Just try to understand her. You are not going to hurt her in anyway.'

"Krm Krm" Sahat made his throat clear and looked at Pooja. She understood that he is going to talk to her about the incident that happened just 45 minutes ago.

"What?" Pooja asked that with plain eyes that expressed nothing. "Shall I ask you something?" Sahat asked her like an obedient child. "mm" said Pooja staring at the closed window. "What makes you feel this melancholic?" Sahat asked her with a very soft tone.

Now Pooja's heart felt like a splashed water balloon. With a loud deep breath, she managed to say, "Anni made me feel like a third person". 'haven't she changed this behaviour right from the childhood?'. Sahat could vividly recall the common incident from their childhood. Yes it is a common incident as it happened frequently and spoiled their play time in childhood.

Sahat and Pooja always loved to play with their neighbours. They never behaved like neighbours. Sahat had his set of friends and Pooja had her set of friends. When a guest comes to any of the friend's house Pooja start to cry. Because she always feel that her friends would treat her like a third person when they are with their relatives. In simple she is a combo of possessiveness and a touch of adamant nature. Yes sometimes she is adamant and would go to any extreme to hurt the person she likes, if they talk to some other person. But she is never possessive over her brother, mom or dad and this had been a great doubt to Sahat. As days passed she reached her teenage and he could not see this behaviour with her as she never took anyone that much close to her. Sahat thought that she is matured in this aspect of being possessive and adamant but now he understood that his guess was false.

Sahat understood his sister's feel but now he is so confused on how to convince and clarify her that there is no fault in Adhira's part.

cute little things

    Hey all, it had been a long time since I posted the last blog post.    I will try to post at-least 3 a week. Now lets get in to today's post. INCIDENT 1 :             On a fine day, in the morning, mom was preparing channa masala for chappathi. Unfortunately, it was partially burnt. Some channas that settled down were burnt and the dish started to spread its burnt smell.             Dad came from hall, to the kitchen 'What happened pa, what is this smell. Have you burnt the dish?' dad asked. To manage the situation, mom took a single burnt channa from the gravy and showed it dad with her thumb and the forefinger holding the channa and said, 'because of this one channa the whole dish is spoiled' with a sad face.             'Okay okay, you don't get tensed. We can manage with some other side dish' dad said that in a way of consoling my mom from the disaster.   ...

Is she the fish out of water - Episode 4

     After staring at the situation for seconds Adhira could find that girl was Sahat's sister and her would be sister-in-law Pooja. She prepared herself to not express her excitement and came out with fake calmness to welcome Sahat.      She admired the way he spoke to her parents. She admired his smile, the way he kept his mobile inside the pocket, the way he lifted his left eyebrow and everything. She could feel the chill that comes, when air touches our skin after steaming for some minutes in her heart. To others vision she looked normal but inside she could realise the changing temperatures. She realised the warmth in her cheeks.      With lots of struggles on hiding her excitement she managed to say, "Hi.. " to him with eye contact for a fraction of second. His warm smile with eye contact expressed his acceptance of her welcome.      The way Sahat met her eyes made her realise how special she is to him. Before Sah...

Picture story - From seed to a strong plant

            It was just two weeks since the seed fell on the soil and started its life. It had lots of desires to live; it always wanted to help humans, birds, animals, and everyone as it can. But, did the seed know what its destiny is. It started to grow its teeny tiny roots inside its shell.              The seed was excited to have its root prints in this world. But all its desires were shattered in that one day. That one miserable day changed the whole story of the little seed.             All that the seed can hear is, 'Hey man, come here soon. We don't have all day. Come and start the construction work. It's just simple work. We can complete it in a few hours, and let's go for next work,' the mason screamed at other workers.              The seed listened to all these things calmly. It didn't know that they are preparing the graveyard for...
