Testing for COVID

They were restless as the RT-PCR was a prerequisite for entry. A positive one would be a blow. Oops!

Sanitation

Sanitation

The rat ran and he chased.

But the rat’s speed was so much so that he couldn’t keep pace. He had for long asked the authorities to ensure the cleanliness in his locality. It was all the more important for him as he ran a bakery which had a lot many visitors. And without proper sanitation there wouldn’t be any customers.

But the apathy of the authorities made the presence of rats and other such organisms inevitable. This apathy had affected his zest for his business. But he knew that he couldn’t take anymore of their drivel and needed to do what was right for the good of his business.

Pronounced guilty

Pronounced guilty

While his supporters were sympathetic at all the trouble he had to endure and gave him a shoulder to cry on, looking at the amount of drivel he had kept pedalling in the days prior, this all seemed inevitable. Though everyone was quite surprised at the speed in which the decision was made.

Onstage Fear

Onstage Fear

They did allow her to speak but having an uncanny feeling of being watched, she started to cry on arriving on the stage. But she did stop as she wasn’t going to capitulate and let this chance pop away.

Keeping him in her memories

Keeping him in her memories

It had just been a while since he was gone. Her world revolved around him from morning to night. And now, he had just been cruelly taken away from her.

Her mind just kept wandering back to the last time she saw him. The day was as hectic as it could get and she had never ever been this busy. While she had been a tyro at the start, she had built a strong career in the decade she had worked at this organization. And things had just kept getting busier. She didn’t even have time to bid him goodbye while leaving home. Little did she know that that was the last time.

She kept reading about rebirth and also hoping for a message in a glass bottle from him indicating that he was fine.

She believed – If you are a dreamer, come in.

 

Note: The line – “If you are a dreamer, come in” is from Shel Silverstein’s poem Invitation as published in his book Where the Sidewalk Ends.

Jaded

Jaded

It only takes a little bit of lace to ruin a marriage.

Her confidence in marriage took a beating as the other lady took precedence while she was jettisoned. While the initial phase together was memorable, the last few years were the difference as they were spent in foraging for happiness. Their relationship did break years ago and nothing could mend it. She never wanted him to feel imprisoned though now was the time to set free and give him his freedom.

Prodigious talent

Prodigious talent

He had played a seminal role in setting up the team and his prodigious talent was always on display as they won many weekend tournaments ensuring that it was more than enough to keep the disquiet amongst supporters to a minimum especially those who doubted his age and experience.

Elder’s vision

Elder's vision

Being the patriarch of the the largest clan in the town, he didn’t feel that it would beseem him to live life in utmost luxury when the others around were suffering. He knew that sometimes the authorities from the city visited them and that was when he had to voice out his vision for the people in his town.

While the vision may seem radically different from his predecessor, he knew that over some coffee and freshly made eggs, he could convince the powers that be about his plans.

Disparage

Disparage

As he remembered the smell of the earth after the first rain of the season, he couldn’t help but visualize the tranquil surroundings. They would always sit in the balcony sipping tea and chatting about the day gone by. It had been six years since she was gone but he still missed her deeply.

He was tired of his relatives foisting their thoughts on him about a second marriage. He felt that they were trying to disparage his feelings for his long lost love.
