thoughts from heart

                                                         It was freezing but, then you don’t expect Kashmir to be warm and sunny during the month of December. I had always an unexplained fascination for this place. Though I had never been here but I had promised myself that once in my life to celebrate the beginning of the most beautiful period of my life I would come here with my better half. So, here I was. The commencement of the trip was not as I had expected. I wanted to surprise my wife by showing her the honeymoon tickets of Kashmir. I even did that. But rather than feeling elated she drew a face and tried to convince me with every molecule present in her to change my decision. However, for a change I conv...

          Diu always fascinated me. Today, when I’ve visited Diu after 6 years it still fascinates me like it did when I came here for the first time. I and my friends decided to relax our brains after our first semester in IIM-A ended. We couldn’t fancy going to Goa because of financial reasons so chose to treat ourselves in Diu with lots of cheap alcohol. While lazing on the Chakratirath Beach, I saw her for the first time.       We were having fun, playing in the water like we have hailed from drought areas of Rajasthan. The geeks for the first time got a life apart from books and notes. Beach, beer and lots of other captivating things. What more could we ask for? Amidst of this deafening noise she was sitting on the sand and was looking at the vast beach like… like trying to know what secrets it held. I came back to the shore on the pretext of being tired. She had the most beautiful big black eyes I had ever seen. Somehow her ...

I was working on a case when my phone rang. Absent minded without even looking at the caller I attended the call. “Hello…” “Roohi…” The voice of my best friend made me immensely happy. “Megha, wow what a pleasant surprise. How come you are calling me today? And where the hell had you been? No phone no message… what’s going on?” I was super excited as this call was the best thing that had happened to me in the entire day. “Roohi, I am…” Her voice cracked and I knew something wasn’t right. “Megha, what’s wrong? Tell me.” “Can you meet me at a coffee shop? I need to talk to you urgently.” “I am on my way.” I kept the phone down. Hurriedly picked up my bag and went to Prashant’s cabin. Before entering the cabin, I knocked the door. Ironical it was that I was knocking at the door of my husband’s cabin and was asking his permission to come in. “Yes…” “Prashant, are you busy?” Without looking up from his file, he answered me. “Of course I am. What is it?” “I wanted to go...

The moment I entered the airport I felt free. The 1st thing that I did was switch off my phone. I knew my Mom would go ballastic on finding my phone switched off but I wanted it badly. Afterall this was the reason I was going on this trip. I wanted to be alone, away from family, away from my two timing nasty boyfriend. In other words away from the known faces. I got my security check done and with the boarding pass in my hand I felt so free. Unlike others I wasn't going to Bangkok or Thailand. I had chosen Dubai cos I wanted to see the modernity mixing with history. My flight was quite late and I had a lifetime to myself. But strangely I was loving it. There was no one to pin point me, no one with demands. I was just another face in the crowd not some PR officer who had to chase clients. While wandering I came in front of my fav point. A bookstore. I leisurely spent time there and sort of pledged that I won't end up buying a love story. But I couldn't help from laughing w...

                       Jai was a successful businessman. Extremely handsome, charming, witty and humorous. He had every quality in him one could ever dream of. But there was one thing that prevented him from being the most eligible bachelor. he used to limp while walking. But this handicap didn't stop him from achieving great heights. At the age of 28 he was the owner of one of the most renowned telecom company with a turnover of around 62 crores. He was an adorable boss and his employees could literally sacrifice their lives for him.                   "Sir, you have an interview at 11 am today," his receptionist broke the news as soon as he entered into the office.                    "Neha you know that I hate giving interviews. Why didn't you say no?"               ...

                It was 10th of July, my birthday. however, for me it was just another day. i wouldn't even have realised that it was my birthday had the calendar not reminded me of the date. It was just another normal day. The routine hustle bustle of arranging things for Vaibhav, sending Kripa to school and then getting ready for the office. Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Raina Sharma, manager in a leading MNC, married to Vaibhav and mother of an angel Kripa. That's it I guess.                Vaibhav didn't remember my b'day but I was used to it. he would probably realize it by the end of the day and then would make it up by taking us out on dinner and buying me yet another diamond. I never held it against him. After all it's not easy for a working couple to survive in a big bad city. I couldn't concentrate on my work. It was one of those days in which sooner or later I got a panic attack. ...
