Epilogue: RTM
“Rishta Tera Mera”
“What are you reading?” The husband frowned as his wife remained hooked to the novel at hand, dismissing his presence.
“This book is so inspiring.” She placed it down on the table as she spoke. “A woman wrote it under a pseudonym.”
The man picked up the book and read the title “Barrister Babu?” He frowned “What is it about?”
“How a man encouraged a woman who dared to dream against society’s norms to follow her dreams and become a barrister alongside him.” The wife smiled.
The man shook his head, “All the fiction is eating up your head. Those stories are not true.”
“She claims it is. The writer claims she has witnessed this closely and knows these people.” She frowned. The man shrugged.
“She might have said so to sell her book.”
“True or not, some stories are worth telling because they inspire generations to come.” The woman shrugged. The man nodded silently.
“So you want to be a barrister?” he asked as she shook her head.
“No, after my matriculation, I want to study English. The author here says she was in Europe a good number of years before she came back to independent India.” The woman spoke dreamily, “Imagine if we ever go…” The man shook his head again.
“You and your novels. Why even read fiction?” He walked away.
True or not, some characters are worth believing in and getting inspired by. And with that hope, this author leaves you with a story very close to her heart, very special on its own and indeed worth sharing, over and over again.

The air was cold, but something about it felt like home somehow- All Too Well. The moment Pratap reached the car at the Indira International Airport with a banner with his name on it, he removed the backpack from his shoulder and handed it over to the driver, who bowed. Although the weight was lifted off his back, something still felt heavy on his chest. He was heading straight to the wedding and was supposed to meet everyone after a long time. Everyone. Including her. He knew that the parents were waiting for his return to officially hand the company over to the next generation, and it meant seeing more of her than he intended to. He was not sure if he was prepared for it. A part of him was happy to be back home. There was something in the air, the smell, the noise, the feel and even the uncomfortable pollution that still felt like home. He was eager to see his brother and meet his parents and Jalal. The two people apart from Ranima who were constantly in touch with him were Heer and ...
Itihas ke Har Panne Ki Ek Bohot Bada Uddesh Hota Hai Jo Aap Aur Main Kabhi Samajh Nahi Paate. Shayad, Meera Bai Ki Bhakti Ki Panna Dhai Ke Sahas Ki Chittor ki Jauhar ke askon ki Ek Bohot Bada Uddesh Tha. Ek Pratap Ka Charo Or Phelne Ki Mewar Ke Suraj ki Roshni Ki. Mewar, a land in Rajputana, is nestled between the serene Aravallis. With its beautiful lakes and forestland, the yellow soil that witnessed warfare, and the mighty temples that stood as a testament to the Bhajans of Meera Bai, its history and folktales reflect stories of bravery, rebellion, and loyalty. Rana Sanga, the most famous of rulers who sat on the throne of Mewar, died unexpectedly, leaving Mewar in a state of uncertainty. Here is where this story begins. The year was 1535 CE, and Mewar's capital, Chittorgarh, stood invincible on the plateau surrounded by the Aravallis. The danger that loomed large after the king's demise was to the throne. Ratan Singh, the king's secondborn, was coronated rather quickly...
“Staying friends is safe, doesn't mean you should.” Ruin The Friendship Ajabdeh almost felt sick to her stomach enough to skip her lunch as she sat down with her laptop, trying to distract herself. Bade Papa wanted her to write a speech for her first address to the employees next month. Her eyes kept wandering to the clock on the bottom right-hand of her screen as she calculated the time it would take for him to reach the venue. Her throat was dry, and no amount of water could do away with the tingling sensation she felt in her stomach. A knock on the door of her hotel room almost made her jump as she regained her composure and said a brisk “Come in.” Jalal peeped into the room, a little unsure as she narrowed her eyes slightly at him. “I just came to check if… You are alright?” He asked, a little unsure, walking up to the bedside. “Why won’t I be?” She retorted as he fell short of words. He cleared his throat and sat down on the edge of the bed. “Well, you didn’t have lunch, so… A...
