It was around three hours to midnight. I was walking along a road that was dark and inhabited. I could hear the noise of katydids and crickets chirping here and there. I was afraid to walk alone along that spooky road. I touched my heart to feel how fast it was beating. My skin started releasing the potion of fear. I was biting my lips out of nervousness. I was afraid to take even a single step. Suddenly, I received a call. ‘Hey! Where are you?’ he asked. ‘I am at the entrance, standing alone, afraid to take even a single step.’ I said. ‘I am at the restaurant, waiting for you,’ he said. ‘It’s too dark here, I am afraid of this locality. Can you come and pick me?’ I asked. ‘Hey, you are a brave girl, right? You are just a few metres away from me. Just close your eyes and start walking,’ he said. I felt safe talking to him. His voice drove me mad and it made me do whatever he told me. I was stating my every single step and he was giving me confidence and courage. Eventually,...

On a Monday morning, I was late for the first class of the day. ‘May I get in ma’am?’ I asked. She looked at me, ‘It’s 9:30 in the morning. You missed more than half of the class, I won’t allow you today,’ she said and continued her lecture. My stomach started roaring like a monster. I decided to calm him down, so I went to the canteen to have some breakfast. At the billing counter, I realised that I forgot to withdraw money from the ATM. ‘Do you accept card payment?’ I asked the person sitting on the counter. But, he replied in negative as I expected. My mobile rang when I left the counter. ‘Is this Karthi?’ the girl on the other side asked. ‘Yeah, who’s this?’ I asked. ‘I am Kavitha. I wanna talk to you about something. Can we meet now?’ she asked. I am confused to give a reply. ‘I think you are at the wrong window,’ I said. ‘No, you are the one. I am looking at you right now,’ she said. ‘Hey, wait. Who are you? I didn’t know you,’ I said. ‘Come to open auditori...

    I was sitting in front of an empty sheet of white paper for the past 2 hours with a fountain pen in my hand. I was surrounded by complete silence and darkness. A light in front of my table powered me the vision of the paper. There were hundreds of crushed white sheets around me. ‘How’s your progress?’ a popup glittered on my screen. ‘I couldn’t write even a single word for fuck sake.’ I replied. Blue ticks appeared, I knew what the reply would be. As I assumed, ‘Don’t worry, you’ll rock,’ was the reply. It was the nth time, I am getting this reply. I am a writer and I am suffering from something which a writer should not. ‘Fuck!’ I shouted and threw the pen I was holding. My hands were tapping the table and my eyes were staring at the empty white paper in front of me. A sudden breeze from nowhere blew off the papers from the table. It was my mom who opened the door to check on me. She took the broken pen and when she stood up, a paper came near her feet. It seemed lik...

     It was the first day of the week, the clinic was occupied by a dozen visitors. ‘Doctor Purush is on his way. We request you to wait for some more minutes,’ said the receptionist. I was one among those visitors, waiting for my regular counseling. This was my first session with doctor Purush. My name is Vasu, a typical Indian middle-class youngster. I am under depression for months, which drove me crazy. It took me long to realize that I need help to heal myself.      Twenty minutes later, a black BMW arrived at the entrance of the clinic. A tall, sturdy man stepped out of the car. He was dressed in formals, a white shirt, and grey pants, I assumed that he might be the doctor by noticing the stethoscope on his neck. He greeted the receptionist as he came in. His face was bright, his smile added him a glowing look. The man walked past the visitors, entering the cabin that belongs to doctor Purush. The receptionist called out my name after ten minutes of...

  FINAL EPISODE ‘Are you sure about this? We have solid evidence against Chandan. He is diverting the case, man.’ The inspector said. You didn’t reply to him. ‘Man, I am shouting like an idiot and you are silent. What’s on your mind? It is my case, and Chandan is the killer now just drive back to the station.’ he shouted. You remained silent. Then you both reached the villa. It was three in the early morning. The entire place remained dark and silent. This time you had no fear to enter the villa. Instead, the inspector refused. You stepped out of the car and stood near the entrance of the villa and asked the inspector to get in with a smile. ‘I told you a local legend about this place, do you remember?’ You asked the inspector. ‘Yes, I do.
