Rumor

So the rumor is true. He is really gonna propose today, Shreya thought as her crush Vishesh walked towards their desk with a bouquet.

Secretly she smiled.

He stood beside her and bent on his knees.”I love you Sonia” and placed the bouquet on Sonia’s lap.

Victim

He edged a little closer, towards her. She knew this was the end.

Her trembling self searched for an escapade, still wondering how her instincts failed her, struggling to avoid the face of death. But it was too late. He was too near.

With a quick strike of its tongue, the lizard swallowed its prey.
