My earliest memories of May are blurred by time but she had always been exceptionally kind to me and I felt as if I was her favorite. She always had a special word or a sweet for me whenever we met.

Abris returned after about a half an hour with a tray in one hand and a canvas bag over her shoulder, though she re-entered without knocking. The tray held a loaded bowl of what looked like a hearty stew and a half loaf of bread. The bag doubtlessly held the promised clothing. She set both on the desk and turned to Sin while beaming. Sin had obviously bath...
Note: Udipi is a kind of sub-cuisine of India. In Bombay, udipi restaurants are cheap and ubiquitous, and are known for their prompt delivery. My wife gave me the best birthday gift ever when I was 10,000 miles away from her. And it was a total surprise. For me. For her too, it was partly surprising. Let me explain.

I walked inside with a smile on my face, excited to be home. "Magen, I'm home!" I greeted her with. "Welcome home Alex, I'm glad you're back safely. However," she said with a look of...
The brisk smell of the cool, fresh Atlanta air hit my face as I left my new office. A shift in scenery from North Dakota and my freelance gig was the new start I needed after a messy divorce. Especially in an open environment with a booming startup. Luckily I was able to craft together my skills and make it sound somewhat thrilling on the countless resumes I...
Darkness. It was pitch black. Esmerelda could not see her own hand in front of her face. She was exhausted from her tears.
