There's something about making mistakes. Mistakes occur all the time. But you see, a mistake made in private isn't such big of a deal.

Dear Crush,
Don't have time to read? Listen to the story from here. Hey. Probably I should have done this a couple of years ago. 11 to be precise. 2009- When I cared less about people’s opinions and shame was nothing but a passing cloud. That time when none of us had been through the fire of … Continue reading Dear Crush,
She Said No, But There was More…
A sequel to the story "Shoot your Shot!" Your arrival today caught me unawares. You should have rung to say you were coming. Maybe then I could have changed into something else girly. These may be my favorite pajamas but now looking at the creases and the missing button, I don't feel so good about … Continue reading She Said No, But There was More…
Shoot your shot! Shoot your shot!
Dedication to the purest souls I know. Happy Birthday... I remembered the jaws of everyone present in the auditorium dropped in sheer disbelief. Had our ears heard well? Hands of the few were cupped at their mouths. Even the deejay had stopped the music. No. It couldn't be. I guess the king of FIFA was … Continue reading Shoot your shot! Shoot your shot!
