Preface

Life of a warrior is always filled with challenges. We never fear death. So here I am looking my opponent in the eye, ready for the duel. Either one of us will die. Death does not dither me. Shaurya is standing with his sword glistening in the sun. I know he is baying for blood! I have to win this for Dhruva. This will not be our last day together!


I take a deep breath and hold my sword up, ready to go for the kill. Shaurya is gazing at me with his smouldering light brown eyes…

You and I, plus 2 years of marriage!

When people say first year of marriage is hard, I tell them to live the second year in isolation with your spouse in a lockdown! First year of marriage was a breeze because of the pampering we received from both sets of parents. Later when career made us move to the capital of the country, we were literally on our own. Right from purchasing household items to getting them transported across cities, it was not easy. Finally, when we moved in to the house, which we made our home, the journey of challenges had only just begun. Although I was no stranger to cooking, I had never managed a house all on my own.

I remember the initial days when it was hard for me to manage office work and household chores. All my frustration unfortunately landed on my husband, who was already trying his best to cope with new set of responsibil...

Two Strangers… One Lockdown! {9} ‘I hope you like the coffee,’ said Ekaparnika with a smile. ‘It is perfect,’ I replied with a formal smile. Atharva had gone to buy groceries from the retail shop just outside the apartment complex. ‘How is your daughter doing?’ I asked just to know more about her family. ‘She is absolutely fine and very excited to have me around her for the past couple of days. Otherwise,  I don’t get to spend so much time with her.’ ‘Yeah… so who takes care of her in your absence?’ ‘Well, I stay with my mother and she is more than happy to keep her engaged throughout the day. In fact, my daughter does not miss me when her grandmother is around,’ she replied. She was indeed easy to talk to once I made up my mind to spend time with her. My day had begun with hectic workload and by the time it was evening, I was completely saturated. When I heard Ekaparnika’s voice in the living-room, I could no longer continue working. My curiosity ...

Episode 10 - The Paradise has a Heart

  ‘I travel a lot. My writing grows with each travel and it gets enhanced from all the experience that I gather,’ said Pradyuman coolly. ‘Well, then you might have to start looking for another job soon. Something which may not require you to travel. Otherwise your girlfriend will have other plans for future,’ he said with a snigger. Agnivesh took a jibe at Roja and it did not go down well with her. He was trying to portray as if she was not a very understanding girlfriend. Pradyuman was smart enough to understand his motive he was not going to gift silence to his adversary. ‘Oh you can be rest assured that it will not be required because she is extremely supportive of my career. And I have huge admiration for her work. Although we may be in different places, we are mature enough to handle long-distance relationship. Most of all, we trust each other completely,’ he said looking straight into Agnivesh’s eyes. ‘And the best thing about us is we don’t dictate decisions to each ...
