A Tune...
Jangle!
Thump!
Whack!
Victoria came running from her room towards the noise.
She was startled as she gave silent stares.
After a few gulps, she inquired, "Are you okay?" as she extended her hand towards the victim who was laying under a pile of musical instruments.
"Yes, I am." Pete uttered as he grasped her hand to get out of the mess. Continued to justify, "I was trying to tune them for

A Sign..
"Step outside, Thea." asserted mom as she entwined her fingers.
The daughter was adamant, " The world will judge me. I want to spend the remaining days of my life inside."
She silently wiped her tears and stroked her daughter's crown that was hairless and bisque in color. Her eyes that were lively and naughty were pale and dejected. She was pronouncing herself dead even before the last breath

Got Weight?
As the mercury touches the digits 9 and 0.
I gulp.
Take a few sips of Nutrisystem cold herbal tea and lay under the cool breeze of the fan while placing a piece of cucumber each over my eyes to avoid those dark circles that usually erupt due to lack of sleep and dehydration, which is normal given the kind of temperature the city is experiencing.

Spotlight n Review of Half Pants, Full Pants Real Life Tales from Shimoga by Anand Suspi
HALF PANTS, FULL PANTS
REAL LIFE TALES FROM SHIMOGA
by
Anand Suspi
Blurb
Half Pants Full Pants is a sort of childhood autobiography set in Shimoga of the 70s and 80s. Given the era and milieu that he grew up in, it carries a flavor similar to that of Malgudi Days. All the characters in the book are real and most of them are still in Shimoga, of course now in their mid-40s.

Like Mother-Like Daughter
"Twist your waist along the loop," she commanded from her balcony on the fourth floor.
"You silly girl!" she screamed when her daughter's hula hoop came sliding down, "You ought to move your waist all the way!"
"Mom!" she cried out, "Chill!"
Sara's friends tee-heed while the embarrassed mom stepped away.
There was a pause, and the daughter clarified with perched eyebrows as she adjusted

Clap your Hands!
The learned have taught us and shall continue to preach, "Happiness is a state of mind!"
I am happy when things go my way, however; the situations are usually never in our hand.
Man proposes God disposes.
We want to turn left at a certain junction, but life throws lemons, apples, and oranges at us.
We pause.
We are dejected, and we turn right instead.
No doubt that path is
