My short stories within 140 characters.
#finger
"You may kiss the bride"
Closed eyes bent to kiss
Failed, bent more
Lost balance, fell on face.
Opens eyes, on his back.
Ring-tanned finger.
#waiting
For making him wait, he pressed all the buttons.
20th floor, exuberating smile!
Reached home, mother on stretcher.
Ambulance is waiting.
#phone
Step in! Push! Slide!
Hold the bar!
Hang on!
Try to stand straight!
Keep stepping ahead!
... "Andheri station"
Hurry! Jump!
Phew!
NO!
"Where's my phone?"
#bear
There is an itch. The itch calls for a scratch. A scratch would hurt, if not it will suffer. Just bear it.
