C'est La Vie!



It was the last time I saw her.

She was crossing the road with another guy.

Wearing that white top I gave her.
The red shoe she asked for on her birthday.
The same girl, the same perfume, the same hand holding a different hand.

Tears were rolling down my cheeks.

I pressed the accelerator of my car.

I hope she saw my face before I crushed her under the wheels.

It was the last time I saw her.

Raam Naam Satya Hein!


“Ram naam satya hein”
“Ram naam satya hein”
“Ram naam satya hein”

The old man saw a little girl repeating the same lines loudly.

She looked tired, hungry, and gloomy!

He went to her.

“Hey! Are you mad? Where is the dead body?”

“What do you mean by dead body?” The little girl asked.

- “Some people came and took my father with them last week and asked me to repeat these words till someone comes!”
