A Letter to the Phone call, “Munazza, We received our Offer Letters.”


Dear Professors and My best friends
Keep sending letters of love through funny analysis of the students. Life has been marvelous lately with you both in it. The deep  conversation in class about Macbeth's Condition to sympathise with Lal Ded on call lead to life like thunderbolt. Eight years with you both are so precious. Seems like diving in the ocean filled with waves to get rare pearls. You are my rarest pearls. I still remember Manisha (My Chahat) with a chandan teeka in the first class which reminded me of the lead actress from the tragic romantic Tere Naam. Haha, you're still my God loving woman. Ekta being an introvert with curiosity, and didn't sit together till Derrida's Lecture. As Derrida is most famous for the theory of deconstruction. It destroyed my thoughts for padhaku Ekta as being super friendly and smarty. Students are blessed with the presence of such wise minds in the classroom. I wish to attend classes soon and have tea in the staffroom together. ☕
You both are bold, intelligent, supercool with a witty sense of humour, I learnt that when we discuss newspaper headlines.🤭
I really miss you both. ‘We are the champions’ group which holds the picture captured by my beloved. So, I'm not changing that. Maybe or maybe not! Another dilemma. Let me end before my train of thoughts runs farther than Mrs Dalloway. I've to get some flowers, and then jump from the metaphorical balcony during wars of mind. 
I miss sitting on small stools eating kulchas with Ekta's delicious sabzi, achar in front of the Art Faculty next to Amul Milk Dairy where our heart lingered for ice creams which we rarely ate because chai already calmed our chaotic minds filled with the confusing language of Shepherd's tale. 
Meet me soon, missing you hugs and tales from the class, my ears are tired for keeping the phone for hours on ears. Don't mind my lame jokes! I know you won't ever. 
Convey my salam to family, and nature around you. 

Only Yours
Elizabeth Bennet🎶✨

Where the Mulberry Tree Used to Be 🌳🐛🍃

Walking by the lake, I’m struck by the ducks gliding effortlessly across the water 🦆. It’s a beautiful sight. But then, sadness creeps in, like dark clouds gathering above. I remember the mulberry tree we had to cut down, it felt like losing a piece of home. 🪵 🏡  Yet, as I watch the students laughing nearby living a life with innocence in heart, I’m reminded of hope👩🏻‍💻📓✍🏻💡. Their joy contrasts sharply with my heaviness. What is hope, I wonder, when everything else feels so burdensome? :') Cutting down the mulberry bush in the orchard wasn't the plan for the year 2025. Abbu informed me this news of separation months later because of knowing my longing for things. I find comfort in the mundane things,from new baby grass to colourful dupatta flowing in the wind as if it's dancing with nature, most probably running from the snatching away of monkeys in our hometown. I dislike the monkeys 🐒 tearing the drying clothes, just like I dislike the idea of gettin...

Let’s Go on a Date: Time Travel Through April 21🖼️

April 21, 2019 A white sweater, a small bicycle stitched in thread, two mortals sitting together as if in a fairytale, a quiet bench at dawn, waiting for the first coffee shop to open,  hair tied in a khajuri, a soft palm-tree ponytail Parul helped me earlier, the first time someone did my hair in such a graceful artwork. For a moment dizzy silence mattered. A partner, sleep-creased from the late night, resting gently on lover's shoulder,  nearby, a few older bikers in their quiet rhythm, while the Krishnagiri Range  lingered in the distance: vast, hushed, and  g od's masterpiece. 7 years later! (Unlike movies, script changed drastically in drastically beautiful ways)  April 21, 2026. Removing the calendar from table wouldn't change the fact that the next day won't occur, accept the time ones life's ended on earth. Framing wrong questions, won't change your idea of wrongdoing; Switching fan...

11:11? What a stupid wish-granting factory reset ⏳

Scene I   Lights Camera Pen☀️  How lonely and lovely at the same time, To live in a castle of own, How strange and fluffy  The winds from roof Where rain keeps showering  Like dancing along. I keep singing poems While doing the laundary  And hanging the clothes to go dry Some lose their charms Some crankles, some run  Some turn out from black to greyyyyyyyy! I tip toe the work I Like it's an art! It's always always better to do work this way. It's easy, and lovely  And as Mary⁵ and Bert⁶ says,  "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious."¹ The people around notice nothing unusual as they're part of their own musicals. The kids love splashing in lakes, the women complete their everyday chores sharing emotions like an art, men walk around with an umbrella so dark making sure they hide their emotions, strangers both men and women whistle along (some hidden, most vague), cats own the roads and walk like Hadid sisters on Victoria's last ramp walk, lea...
