B(ring) Him Back!


The number you are trying to call is switched off.


This is the fifth time she heard the same thing.

Perhaps he is in a meeting or talking with his boss.

What if he is with another girl?

She couldn’t think anymore!


The number you are trying to call is switched off.


She was getting desperate.

He never did something like this.

He is supposed to drive back home! An accident…?

“Oh God! No! What am I thinking?” She forcefully changed her thoughts!


The number you are trying to call is switched off.


She couldn’t control her tears.

Something must have happened. She didn’t know whom to call.


The number you are trying to call is switched off.


The number you are trying to call is switched off.


The number you are trying to call...


Suddenly her phone rang! It was him! Thank God!

- “Hello?”

“Why are you giving me random miscalls for the last two hours?”

She broke down with tears. Does he even know how tensed she was?

“Your… your ph was switched off!”

A short pause, then he burst into laughter!

“I told you today not to choose that weird caller tune for me!”

And Let There Be Light!



1, 2, 3...

“Hey what are you doing?” She asked!

7, 8... counting words! Can't you hear?

But, you are counting numbers!

It's all the same... 15, 16, 17, 18...

I can't see anything! Stop counting and let me open my eyes.

22, 23, 24, 25, 26...

Hey! I'm talking to you.

Shut up and let me count... 33, 34, 35...

Jack? What kind of surprise is this? What are you doing?

Shhh... 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48...

If this is another one of those silly trick of yours, I'm gonna kill you!

51, 52, 53...

Fine! Go on...

57, 58, 59...

Jack?

Open your eyes!

She hesitantly opened her eyes very slowly.

“Oh Jack! I can see again! She cried out with joy. I can't believe it! I can...

She couldn't speak anymore. His two eyes were covered with bandage but he was smiling. That charming old smile she saw 11 years back before that car accident...

JACK!!! She screamed! Why did you do this?????? And broke down with tears.

Shhh... he touched her lips with his finger and whispered gently - “I wanted to write a short story in just one minute! Thank you for letting me complete it.”
