I MISS... It was a lazy Sunday afternoon in, what I consider to be the most spectacular season of the city, the Rainy season. There I sat at my window sill reading for the n-th time 'To Kill A Mockingbird' while the computer played 'Lemon Tree'. The freshness of the leaves, the amazingly brightness unto...

THE MAN AND HIS MANY WOMEN Her face was hidden behind: Why Men are from Mars, and Women from Venus. His, behind The Times of India. They sat silent while the tea grew cold.
