Death In The Lane

Death In The Lane - A 55 Fiction

A farmer in remote village of Uttar Pradesh went to withdraw money for her daughter's wedding to a bank nearly 100 km away from his village. Unaware of the announcement made last fortnight he waited patiently in the line to hear no money to give. Demonetization shock & worry seized his heart in the lane.

Gang Of Four (Part - 2)

Gang of Four (Part - 2)

Arjun,Rajeev, Raghav and Ejaz avoided any family gathering outside the town (like relative's wedding,birthdays,funerals,etc.) only because they wouldn't want to be separated from each other's company. If necessary all of them go there together. Their families sometimes get worried about them for the thought that what would happen if they didn't get jobs in same company,what would be their behavior after their marriages but then they have their faith in time. Time will change their thinking.

One day Arjun's parents told him about marriage of his cousin sister." You have to come with us and there is a very strict guest list you can't bring your friends their." " But dad I don't want to go their and without my friends it's impossible." No further argument on this topic. You are coming without your friends properly shaved,I hate that unclean stubble.Your elder brother looks more younger than you." He protested but all in vain. 

He discussed that problem with his friends who advised him to go with family. " But I will not change this stubble look." " Do what your father says we are not bad boys." said Ejaz. " That beard and mustache is our own property we can grow it any time we wants," added Raghav. " Ok but I will shave only once there on the day of arrival of baraat." " That's not a problem." After two days he went to the wedding.

This post is part of Protest Against Unclean Stubble Activity in association with BlogAdda.

One day Sandhya noticed an unread message on her phone after reaching back home.It was Rishab's which said," I know you never miss weddings and funerals,hope to meet you there." Sandhya didn't understand the message but she realized that she always remained occupied with work which has so much disturbed her love life. The best couple of college days hardly met now. Every once in a while you got someone who loved that much. While she was still thinking of Rishab a friend telephoned her to give news of his suicide.Last message of his was now deciphered.
