Reminiscence - A Short Story

I was pleasantly surprised when Janaki Nagaraj - fellow blogger, poet, runner - asked me if I'd be interested in doing a 'guest post' for her. Of course I jumped up and down and clapped my hands and said yes, yes. And then I was stumped. What on earth shall I write about? Especially since I'm a guest, it'd better be sensible - unlike the rants here on my space. So I figured I'll give her a short story. It being the day of love and all ...yeah I wanted to write about romance. But it's not the regular boy-meets-girl stuff. Definitely no lahu is muh lagaoing. I don't think I can write romance that way. I mean writing romance requires an eloquence; a finesse. I certainly cannot write convincingly about racing pulses and stolen kisses and hot breaths. Bet that would come out comical. Romance in my mind has a different connotation, a different colour. It is so different that it is unromantic if you ask me.

So presenting Reminiscence - run over to JANAKI'S BLOG and read it. And if it has moved you, irritated you, disappointed you, bored you...do leave a comment :)
