A piece from the story "The tower"

 

"That night she suddenly woke up feeling strange, as if something was really wrong. When she looked at my bed she swore she saw a woman sitting beside me. In the semi darkness she could see that it was a very beautiful woman wearing the dresses of British Era notch girls: glittering lehenga (Indian long skirt), choli (top that comes with it), chunni (stole) and ornaments of pure gold studded with real gems! They were sparkling in the moonlight that scattered on the bed. Her hair was long and not braided. It fell all over her body like another veil, black one."

 

"Who is it?" she mumbled incoherently.

"She just vanished right in front of my eyes! But not before I could see her eyes. They were glowing like the eyes of predators in dark."

"A shudder ran through my spine. It took me few seconds to gather courage and scream!"…your grandma told me later." Her father would have continued the story, surrounded by a bunch of gaping kids, swallowing every word that came out of his mouth.

"She said she felt like fainting but gathered her nerves and started screaming."

"Grandpa came running from the next room. He on his turn swears that he saw a black bitch skulking out of the room. He chased it but could not find it after reaching the garden. The main door to the house was wide open, and he remembered locking it himself before retiring to bed, no one took the blame for leaving it open at middle of night!"

 

This too is in Shoptly now. You can check it out there!

Both feet grounded: I am not much aware of the political condition of USA, heck I don’t know much about Indian politics, but it seems misguiding people is the latest trick of politicians. Returning to enlightenment value? : This one is a scary piece, a story how people are being turned against each other AGAIN and AGAIN by politicians. The challenge now and ahead: no wonder #45 and Feku are buddies, their way are eerily similar. Should we punch Nazis?: The Nazis should be punched but not physically by exposing their intentions and the effect of their actions on society! When weaponized church conquers Government: It become
