                                   Excerpt from the short story - Black-out

          “Have I come to the wrong house? I am sorry,” he teased and half-turned to go. She pulled him inside, shut the door and soundly kissed him on his lips. Since she’d taken up writing, she had ignored her appearance and was often dowdily dressed only in loose cotton night-gowns, with her hair messily knotted at her nape and held back with sundry pins. She claimed that she felt comfortable while writing and anyway she was all alone at home!

          Hence Sudhanshu had always been welcomed home by a harried author, who would take her time in opening the door and immediately rush back to her precious writing.

          She ignored her appearance as well as him. Fortunately, she still maintained her house, but he wondered how long it would be, before that too became a casualty to her literary pursuits. Hence he was pleasantly surprised by her immaculate and feminine appearance that evening. He felt buoyed by the fact that ‘junior’ too was not around. It had been months since….
