Great story, Reena. The ending made me sad. A move-out requires a lot of courage and the protagonist might have been sad for a long time, thinking and playing out the moment of moving out in her mind. And yes, no bond is stronger than the one with a childhood friend, even if they are not related to you.
Love the concept and how you got a story within a story. Cheers Reena!
Thanks so much Philip!
Great story. I love that Sunil remembered the mangoes after 20 years. True story by any chance?
Thank you dear Carissa. So glad you liked that twist. A long guilty conscience, perhaps?
Nope, not a whit of truth here. Just the imagination :-)
❤️❤️
This gave me a smile - a mixed one :)) What a sweet story of a sweet bond
Thank you dear Pragalbha! So glad you liked it.
Terrific turn at the end of the poem.
Thanks dear Mary! So glad you liked it. Hope you are thriving.
