Woohoo! Write Tribe call it ‘Two Today’ and I call it 2 in 1 package. I am participating in two prompts, 55 on Friday 2014-2 and 100 Words on Saturday 2014-7. Hope you enjoy both prompts rolled into one post for the unique ‘Two Today.’
55 on Friday 2014-2
How I Wished
How I wished life would be a smooth sailing and roller coaster ride?
How I wish the world would not crash down?
How I wish Love would not be unrequited?
How I wish I could know the ways of the world?
How I wish I would not be the idealistic rebel in this ruthless world?
100 Words on Saturday 2014-7
S/He’s the lucky one
She read the love letter, “I’ve been madly in love with you since the first time I saw you in college. I love you. I am waiting for you near the tea stall, your secret lover.” She run past the college gate and saw him standing. She screamed teary eyed and hugged him, “I didn’t know, you love me so much. I love you, too.” He’s the lucky one. He waited for her since the morning in the scorching sun but couldn’t see her shadow. Dejected, he walked away, without realizing somebody else snatched his love.
the first rule for a love letter : write the sender and recipient name… why is that silly thing forgotten by lovers!!! dumb in love indeed!!!
hehe! Love has no rules and the heart bear no reason..dil toh bachcha hai ji:)
hmm.. you nailed it!!!
haha! Thank u, Archana:)
H realised that his love is snatched away rt ….. maybe u should remove the without in this sentence – Dejected, he walked away, without realizing somebody else snatched his love.
No no, he didn’t realize that someone took his love in front of his nose. It was a question of mistaken identity:)
nice take on the prompts! 😀
Thank u so much, Madhusmita:)
Awww poor boy… Hope he would find.someone better. Well.written
Thank you so much, Rajlakshmi:) Me too! How life is unfair, no!!!!
How I wish that the first prompt went on and on. Beautiful take! 🙂
As for the second one, did he not mention the exact tea stall to her?
Hey, Soumya! Thanks for commenting and welcome here. I enjoy reading your blog. Of course! He did but she came late in my imaginative world and a random guy in class swept her off the feet:)
Anonymous letter, anonymous lovers…enjoyed the twist in the tale 🙂
Thanks a ton, Beloo and welcome here:)
I wish that life wouldn’t come crashing, either!
Thanks, Michelle. me too, I wished we would not get upset by small defeats that sometimes make us struggle for a very long time.
Wonderful take on both the prompts ! And for the love story turned sad, well, that’s so bad a fate 😦 Well written, Vishal !
hehe! Thanks a ton:) Haha! Guess fate plays a pivotal part in life. What say?!
this is why one should always write down one’s name!
hehe!True! Guess in my love letter in the imaginary world, love knows no reason and logic. Thanks:)
it should! at least common sense is good- but then it is said that a fool becomes intelligent in love and vice versa so…
So well said! A fool become intelligent in love:)
the poem is fantastic, but i guess these disappontments, heartbreaks make smart people relish success more 🙂
Thanks a ton, Sharmi:) I second u, disagreements and heartbreak, no matter how painful, make us relish success when it comes. I love romanticizing pain, often deriving pleasure in them:)
i dont like pain, but i suffer them to know how good happiness it 🙂
Pain hurts the soul and I don’t like it, either. You are such a strong girl, Sharmi and have no doubt happiness will escalate in abundance for you:)
God bless you with the same my precious friend! believe me, I am already far more happier than most of the people I come across online or offline 🙂
Thanks a ton. I am so happy for you and strive to be happy as much as I can:)
On the first one: on the surface, it would seem to be a blessing if things were always easy… but the fact they aren’t makes us appreciate the good even more!
What a sad ending to the second one! I had to laugh at the comment about putting names on the note – great idea 🙂
You so right, Jannat. If there were no defeats in life, we would not cherish the awesome moments and take life for granted. For the second one, he was the victim of mistaken identity. Had I put names, the story would never exist:)
We all wish for all these, don’t we?
Indeed, we do, Nabanita. A flawless life where at least life goes a bit easy on us:)
How I wish she had found the guy who gave the letter 😀
hehe! That’s the story and without it, the story doesn’t exist, at least in my creative mind:)
how i wished is truly well written.And with the story awesome. nice twist,he truly was a lucky one.
I love some twist in stories as spice is added to them. Thanks a ton for the lovely words:)
Love the 55-er and an interesting take on the 100 words prompt. Have never seen a love letter take that course… 😛
Thanks a ton Psych Babbler. Lol! I added the twist. I’m wicked, na:)
Lovely Wishes! I hope they come true!
Nice twist in the end in the story! I guess being a secret admirer doesn’t help!
Thanks a ton. I, too, hope that dreams unfurl and become true. Thanks for the second one. Sometimes, one should tell the one we like and the story was imagined inside my college in Pune where so many crushed unfurl itself.
Ohh… So it did happen?
Not really! At least, I don’t know bt visualized ma college in Pune and the chai ki tapdi opposite college. I mean, it can happen, right?! 🙂
Oh! Yah it can happen! Its sad though!
Ya! It is sad.
Amen to the wishes!
And yes, an anonymous letter… well, while I feel sad for him, but he asked for it! 😛
Thanks tons, Shilpa. Hehe! In my figment of imagination, he was a victim of mistaken identity..lol:)
The second one gave me goosebumps 😦 Sad 😦 and the how I wished was realistic 🙂
hehe!!! If it was not realistic, no story. My stories are the Rohit Shetty types of ma own creative world. completely crazy and I am dying to see ma name on the shelf of Indian authors at Landmark and Crossword. Read non-sensical rom coms. That’s my plate:)
OH!! While both were excellent, the twist on the second one left my jaw dropped!! Holy crap! That was awesome!
haha! Kathy! The aim was to make jaws dropped and happy urs dropped. Thanks and u making me swing in the air:)
Only the brave have luck in love! And brave people don’t send anonymous letters! 😉 And hope your wishes come true. 🙂
hehe! Jyothi! Point noted and u said it. Thanks for the wish:)
Oh poor soul…He should have given her some clue who he is or he should have proposed to her instead of writing silly love letters 🙂
hehe! That’s what love stories are all about..hehe! love stories are always silly. I would say enjoy since it’s a piece of fiction:)
And I enjoyed reading the post 🙂
Thank u so much. It’s 100 per cent pure fiction:)
