PRESENT:
MARS,2123

"No,Dad I don't want to go without you, I don't want to leave you behind, Please please come with us" I beg my dad to come along but he reply with a cute smile "Look after your mom kiddo and Don't forget how much I love you both" and with the gentle kiss on my forehead, he turns back and the gates close. I can feel my heart hammering in my ears, but I don't want to look some where else and I can't even reply. I am afraid of looking afraid.
"Grandpa, Grandpa" I hear some noise but not sure where it is coming from, "Grandpa Alan, you are sleeping again at this time. It's the story time" Oh! This is my grandsons' voice so I think I was dreaming again. By dreaming and spending the life with that same dream is not less than an agonizing death.
"Not today Neel" I murmured. "No, We waited for the entire story for a very long time, Now you must have to tell" My only grandson Neel who is the life of mine now. The most precious thing in the world isn't gold or diamonds it's the innocence with which a child view the world and specially when their new world is the mars, the red planet.

The memory of my life was with that moment when I lose my father, and everything before it was a blur. I can't even remember the face but only my father's face with wet eyes but with a tiny smile..
Looking back, I think a part of my mother died that day too; I just realize that on the mars.

Earth, 2081:


The last flight is about to leave to mars as a huge asteroid much enormous than the earth is going to strike and will destroy the earth. So there's a jolt as the last stage of our rocket drops away to burn up in the atmosphere. My eyes snaps to the mission clock.
"Twenty minutes and fifteen seconds". And I hold the hands of my father and mother very tight which I don't want to let go. But I discover my father seems looking for something and that something is my younger brother and he is not with us in the rocket.
So he decides to go out to find him but the rocket is about to take off.
Then he just vanish with his last words "Look after your mom kiddo and Don't forget how much I love you both" and gates closes and so my hopes that I would see my father and brother again.
Then I hear the reverse counting that means the rocket is about to blast and leave but my father isn't here by my side nether mine younger brother.
"Three, Two, One.." and I close my eyes at the deafening explosion of the rocket engines. The force of the 100 tonne bomb beneath me jams my spine into the seat as it fights gravity and lifts its mammoth weight into the sky.
At the same time, a blast of adrenaline rips through my nervous system, making my heart pond so hard I can feel my head throbbing. With each breath, I feel the gnawing fear that it may be my last but my teary eyes realizes me that my father and my little brother is not with me.


My stomach twists into a tighter knot despite my pre-launch dose of anti-nausia drugs. I find it hard to breathe, and I know it's from more than just the tremendous gravity forces crushing my chest.The panic no longer lurks in the back of my mind, it's kicking the door down but i felt a touch on my hand and I can feel My mother is also by my side and she gently waved "It's gonna be okay".
And after a long journey of 3 months and 20 days we finally reach the red planet and the volunteers just welcome us check our cylinders if they need to change. But yeah we are alright.
And from now onwards my only home is mars and I have to live my life with this culpability.
Title - the unfulfilled wish
Part 2
I thought that my parents came back yeah yeah I was run fast and very peaceful smiled on my face in this hope that they came back and I was thinking that I'll huge my parents tightly but as soon as I open the door I saw the police uncle came. I was wondered but I thought my parents came both them so I searched of my parents among them. The police uncle was looking at my habit and they asked, child what are you searching??. Hey uncle, why are you here??, where are my parents?? and why they did not come with you??, tell me where are my parents??, I saw everywhere but I didn't find them so I finally ask you and my w voice was a sensation. child listen to me I want to tell you something. No no no first you tell me where are my parents, you know what uncle 2 days ago was my birthday and my parents told me that they are going to purchase my gift but still, they both not came and in the evening my neighborhood uncle told me that my parents have been dead in an accident, I can't believe on them, they feel joules to my parents because my parents have a good reputation in the company instead of uncle
Child child child stop, take a break I know you love very much to our parent's child, what your name uncle asked. Nitin, I said. So you are a good boy and your parents have been...
Yes I know they both in your car I stop his talk in the middle and run fast near to the car and say, mom. Dad.. Where are you I am here but no response, I said again in this hope that they came outside but again no response I go very close to the car but no one was in the car hey uncle came here. I was very pensive and was searching for my parents near the car but nothing found mom. Dad. I called loudly hey Nitin, Nitin child stop listens to me, I want to tell you something about your parents!! what!! I asked. the child your patents have died in an accident. After hearing this again I fell as like thunder fall on my head and cyclone came in my heart, No no no you tell a lie, please, uncle don't lie, call my parents I know they're angry on me because I'm average student, And I was fighting with my dad that I want one bike and phone on my 15th birthday because my all friends have but my dad denied, I know they want that I achieve 1 rank in 12th standard I said and tears fall in my eyes and tears rolled on cheeks and I remembered my mom told me they'll go on my granted grandmother home I know they both are there, I said with my full tears eyes. Child, I know you love your parents very much but we can't do anything, your parents told me to write a note for you before died and I want to give it to you, trust me nitin, they are no more.
Leave me alone I don't want to hear it, go go go I said and I cry loudly
Police uncle and his team member looked to each other and decide to leave me alone but I show clearly that tears were falling in his eyes but they wipe tears quickly. My child we are going, this is the last note of your parents, I put it at the table and uncle went. After they went, I take the note and cry very loudly and I start reading...

He woke up in the middle of the night to attend to nature’s call. It was eerily quiet, quieter than usual. He looked for his phone in the dark, but it was nowhere to be found. He could not risk turning on the light, for he did not want yet another sleepless night. He walked to the washroom without turning the lights on. No sooner did he open the door to his washroom than he stumbled upon someone and fell on the floor. Next to him was a body he stumbled upon. Screaming at the top of his voice, he struggled to turn on the bulb in the washroom. He went from panting to breathing heavily to being unable to breathe at all. It was not because of finding a body lying in a pool of blood in his house where he lived alone. It most certainly was not. It was because of the appearance, the physique of the body lying on the floor. Dark, long and silky hair. Brown eyes, wide open, staring into the abyss. A slightly twisted nose, as if it had been smashed while the deceased was a little kid. Ears so huge, popping out of his face, as if they’d been affixed with glue to his face. A young lean, tall boy. A boy he had known for the longest time, a boy he truly cared about, a boy he truly loved. While a part of him could not stop thinking about how it could have happened and what could have happened, a part of him wondered how it was possible. He looked at the pale body, blood drained out of it, touched it, and it was real. How could it be even possible? Was he losing it? Was he delusional, after staying at home for too long? How could his own body be lying dead in a pool of blood, with his wrist slashed? If he were dead, how could he feel his own body? The thought that bothered him the most was, ‘How could he do the thing he was most afraid of?’ He spent his entire life, fearing almost everything from water to fire, from land to sky, from animals to humans, only because he was afraid of death. His fear of death led to an irrational fear of almost everything, especially because he could never bring himself to understand death, to accept the idea of it or to welcome it. And yet, here he was, looking at his own lifeless body in front of him. Had the fear faded away? Perhaps not. Had the pain ended? Perhaps not. His urge to end his pain resulted in a life full of pain, perhaps forever. He lived the night that was never to last.

The First Time You Got There
==============================
You wanted to know everything in a minute
You wish you could grasp all things at a goal
You felt too late than earlier
At a glance, you could flip through the pages of old
memories.

The First Time You Got There;
You counted your name amongst great achievers
You could exhibit the sigh of letting down burden loads and taking up a crown
With some sort of pride in your bosom, you counted and
compared yourself to those who have also got there
Nonetheless, you expressed your gratitude to the few
“OMG! I feel at home”, perhaps that wasn’t your
destination.

The First Time You Got There;
You looked supercharged, ready to clear your path of any
competition and kind
In no time, you lost your prowess.
Awww! You felt it didn’t end well. Yes!
That was just the first time.

Day 112–February 18th, 2081
Dear Diary, I find it amusing that if you reverse the digits of the year in the date above, you will get my birthday, which is today. My bunker doesn’t have any window, but there are some in the dining hall. It gives a splendid view of the space from the ship. The distance has reduced Earth into a speck. Mars looks much nearer now - a red blot. I wonder if the color of the soil affects our skin tone. If that is so our offspring’s on Mars might have skin tones ranging from Pink to Maroon. Hilarious.
They say that we used Earth’s gravity as a slingshot, else it would have taken more than 300days. But now, around a month more, and HelloooMars. 50yrs of toil, and we did it. The place is livable now, they say–but only in closed crystal semi-spheres.
Thinking about the slingshot, I find it common with the spaceship that I too was thrown out of earth by… by my bitch step mom. I didn’t say to you, but I saw her rutting out to a man in my Dad’s bedroom! Disgusting. I miss you Dad. I wish it was her and you were alive. I think I did the right thing turning her over to the police for adultery. Now thinking about it, I could say I rather threw off myself from Earth. Its days has lessened by another 100 days. A few more 100s and life will be done there. Nobody knows how its magnetic field is vanishing and how with it is vanishing rest of the life forms starting from birds. Ok, now there goes the lunch buzzer. Later then.

Nikita closed her diary and left for the mess. She collected her meal and sat in her usual place along with Carl. He was reading a book on biology. It had the author’s photo at the back cover. Nikita’s jaws dropped seeing him. She grabbed the book from Carl. “Hey, manners girl.” He cried.
“Who is he?” asked Nikita, tapping on the photo.
“He is James Salmon,” Carl said. “The famous biologist who made it possible. Because of whom we will live on.” It disappointed him as the fact didn’t light up Nikita’s face, rather it became stiff. He heaved a sigh and picking up the spoon, “But sadly, he was killed the day before we boarded the ship.”
“Killed?”
“Yes, by his wife. Suspected adultery. But it is being now said that there might have been some scam they are brushing it under the carpet. He was a member of the board for Mars Project and took sexual favors for a seat in this ship. One per girl is the rumor.”
Nikita got up with the book in her hand, which slipped out on the way to the window. She placed her hands on it, looking out to the blue dot. Her eyes swelled and tears rolled out, as she whispered Sorry into the vast empty space.
You can fight temptation but its hard to win against addiction .

Graveyard

I walked beside a dead graveyard
Keeping myself a foot apart,
I could feel the horror grow
When I saw a dead lying crow.

Something then hit me from back
I turned and saw it was all black
Horror started filling me
Fear started drilling me ,

Trembling convulsively I said below'
" There is no dead only living soul"
I heard again; something at my back
Oh lord my god! what I saw then
I saw my sweety granny grin.

Then I swayed and sat back ,
"Thinking I had seen a dead"
Then something just struck my mind;
"There is no dead only living soul"

Something happend very strange
The dark vanished, and turned vauge,
I saw my Garnny smiling hard
She took my soul to heaven above.

The Deal: A tale of betrayal

Part 5

Raquel was lying on the floor of her room, face down. Her head was bleeding but the more concerning injuries were on her joints; they were cut up and pierced as if she was attacked with blades and iron nails. Oddly enough there was no blood around the joints, just on the forehead, and that too wasn't too much still she needed an urgent blood transfusion. No weapon to have caused such injury was in sight either, her room was thoroughly checked, the ground below the window was checked too but still, there was no clue of anything as such. She looked pale as a ghost and so fragile and brittle then, that it felt like she would break at a slightest of touch.

"Hush my dear" Nadia calms Raquel down a bit and then she feeds her. None of them mentions the night but for some time Nadia wonders if that's what has been hurting Raquel, that same ghastly thing that she saw in her room; but it was a fleeting thought and Nadia forgets about it as she tries to entertain Raquel. When Nadia tells Raquel that she has to leave now she could see the fear on her face, so she immediately asks Raquel if she wants her to stay.

Raquel pulls herself together and tells her that she is fine. Deep down she has an idea that even if Nadia stayed it wouldn't make a difference and that her fate was sealed a long time ago.

Meanwhile, the continuous failure by Doctor Philip to understand the case of Raquel puts the hospital management in a bad mood and hence they decide on appointing someone new. For this purpose, Dr. Edwin Morris is to replace Dr. Philips in a few days. Dr. Edwin has experience with the most peculiar of cases and has published a lot of theories helpful in the field of psychology and thus has earned fame at a very young age.
For Dr. Edwin coming back to his hometown for work is nostalgic. As he drives through the streets where he rode his bike in his college days he feels memories all rush in at once. Years ago he left his home to serve the world. He went to every remote area he could and helped people with his knowledge. Everything else came in perhaps as a reward to his selflessness. And now in his own hometown, a very prestigious Institution wanted him to look into a perplexing case, how could he deny it so here he was driving right to the Institution to work his magic.

The Deal: A tale of betrayal

Part 6

Dr. Edwin reaches the Institution on the fifth day after the incidence since everyone was aware of his arrival beforehand they prepared all the papers regarding the patient but he refuses to see them. He wants someone who looked after these patients to guide him to the rooms before he reads about them anything. He wants to form his own opinion and reach his own conclusion by observing them and not borrowing what has been done by his predecessors. Strangely he doesn't just want to see the patients that he has been assigned to but wants to have a glance at every single one in the hospital. Everyone thinks it's odd but nobody has any objections to it, so he gets what he wants. By doing this Dr. Edwin takes a general note of how patients are categorized and how they are treated across the Institution. That will give him an idea if the case he will see is actually peculiar or is it just that management is at fault. After looking at all the other categories of patients finally, Nadia guides him through first and second-floor patients, these are prone to self-harm and can even be dangerous to others at times. Nadia thoroughly and passionately talks about each and every one of them and Dr. Edwin notices that the right procedure is in place and the staff is well trained. That only means that the case will be something worth looking at. Finally, he stands in front of the door of the last room on the second floor but with horror, he notices it's empty. He looks questioningly at Nadia but Nadia replies to him with an apologetic smile. "I'm sorry Dr. I forgot to mention she's in the piano room, there's a piano tutor here every day for the patients who are capable of learning such but she loves to listen to it so she just sits there and listens.”
Looks of concern pass his face. "But the patients in this category aren't allowed to mingle with.." he starts to but the calm look of Nadia's face makes him drop his concern. She seemed to him so far as someone who knew her job well and he decides to trust her for that. Besides, doctor Philips would have made the decision so he has to take it in his stride.

"Can I see her there?" He asks Nadia, an open surrounding will give him a better chance to observe her. Nadia shows Dr. Edwin the piano room and Raquel sitting in a corner in a comfortable chair since her wounds are still healing. Dr. Edwin's eyes almost fall out of their sockets from a single glance at what he has been told is Miss Raquel Haggle, the room seems to whirl around his head and breathing only comes when he decides to do it consciously.

The smile virus
Smiling is infectious,
You catch it like a flu,
When someone smiled at me today
I started smiling too.

I passed around the corner
And someone saw my grin
When he smiled I realised
I had passed it on to him.

I thought about that smile
Then I realise its worth,
A single smile,just like mine
Could travel round the earth

So if you see a smile begin
Don't leave it undetected
Lets start an epidemic quick,
And get the world infected!

Mani was sand blind he could hardly make out things ,sometime it happened he got confused between his women buyers and men buyers as there was nothing but only moonlight and the only spectacles he had were broken while he was looking down and tieing his dhoti,half side glass was shattered and he could not see anything from it, even after it he wore with just one glass alive and whenever he had a customer on he closed one eye and dealt with them ,but he stopped it when a lady gave him a tight spat on his cheeks claiming that he was winking seeing her and giving wired coughs but he was innocent and was trying to see the customer and was coughing out of cold .

Mani stepped out of the stair cases and went outside to get his very slippers but unfotunately he wore the wrong one as he has counted "9th pair from the "paan shop" but the time was past and the arrangement was different "

Someone saw Mani wearing his belongings and shouted

"Dhoti wala is here catch him "
Indian crowd is very famous ,people beat first and then listen what was the cause and who is been hit.He was hit hardly blood was oozing out of various wounds ,he was beating hard untill people satisfied that his hands would never turn to this door anymore.
Mani lay there unnoticed for few hours he was hit really hard he tattered cloths were now black holes ,the whitish black dhoti was now black as coal.
He anyhow managed to get him to his stall but getting there as he saw his stall it was even more formidable and he fainted .

Not a single pair of slippers were left there .He too was robbed by the thief and his slippers and his goods were sold in ten times more price his slippers were sold here on his stall in chor bazar.

Letters of the dead
Letter from her 3
🔸To the guy i hate most🔸

You are right. I am a fraud. I mean, wasn't all the time we spend together one? some nights i even wonder if you really loved me, or if you were torturing me. I don't know for what exactly but i can't even try to understand you. who walks into a girl's life when he is the one who took away her dad? You took him away; my dad, my hero. I miss his touch, how he holds me, i lost his smell. I have tried to conserve his scent, we never washed any of his clothes. But as time went there was no trace of him. I miss how he fed me all my life long. I miss his voice, his laugh. I can't imagine his smile, every memory i have of him is gone. And you are asking about our memories, your memories. I can't even remember most of my dad. All i remember is how he felt that day; cold, rigid, distant. He was lying there lifeless. That is all i have in my head.

Letters of the dead
Letter from him 4

🔸To the girl i loved, once🔸

It is my turn ha? That was all there was in my head before you walked into my life. Your dad that day; he was lying in the ground, i tried to save him but i was just a kid,i was scared, i didn't know what to do. You know what your dad did that day? he took my hand; i saw something in his eyes, there was no hatred in them, they were kind,beautiful. His hands were warm, firm, i still wonder how they can be that warm and comforting while he was dying. I always wonder how a dying man can have all that love. I guess i will never know. Then he told me something.." son, it is okay. It is going to be okay, i just need you to do me a favor, tell my daughter how much i love her. And get her lotus flower for me, she will know what it means.." . I wondered how he knew we might cross paths, i guess there are a lot of things a dying man knows about. i never have forgiven my self. I asked my self why he thought it was going to be okay, because it never was. And then you came into my life and i understood what he meant, it felt like he sent you to me, then i started feeling okay, believing life wasn't so cruel after all. I guess, i shouldn't have wavered. I should have stood to my belief, then i could have saved us both form all this. And since i have told you his last words, here is the lotus flower your dad sent for you.

Always your shadow

🔸To the guy who sent me flowers🔸

Thanks for the flowers. You made me have some of his, our memories. Lotus flower is our favorite. How strong and undefeated the flower is, how it is a beauty in the desert. What it means is he is always with me and me with him, how i should never forget to notice and admire the beauty in the dark. I guess, he wanted to tell me to forgive you because he did. Thanks for giving me this piece of him.

As your name slowly fades away from my heart
And feelings I had for you are receding
I can't help feel a little lonely some nights
Because your smile is still lingering

As the thought of you starts to leave my mind
And your eyes just aren't as warm anymore
I think I've come to realize
That I don't feel the same anymore

You used to be my pill to every problem
You used to sing me to sleep
But I lost your heart and I don't know where
I feel like I don't know you anymore

From the sleepless nights and being teary eyed
Staying up to just listen to your voice
To feeling like my heart is being ripped out
Everytime your message comes.

And I know I may not have been the "One"
But you sure made me feel so.
And when you told me that was not true
The castles I built came crashing through.

And with those broken walls I was left alone
To heal what was left of my soul
And promise myself not to fall again
In this ruse called love no more.

How weirdly cruel is this world
Where the one's who can love
Can't find love. While the ones who can't
Fall madly in it.

We both said that we loved eachother
But your love just wasn't mine.
I can't hurt my heart anymore
So please take these words as goodbye

LOVE DEMANDS
Part 1

The atmosphere outside was cool, Miss Rosie was sitting on the chair napping sweater.She gave a glance at the clock it was half past eleven, she was waiting for Easton her husband patiently.

It was the season of winter, on the right of the sofa which she sat was a glowing fire which kept the nature cosy, Rosie wore a light pink color- furry coat, her hairs were tied at the backs still some think locks were on her sides, the winter made her cheeks turn pinkish color.

It was the second time she made the tea, not fo keeping herself warm, but to kill time by taking it slowly sip by sip.Finally the door bell rang, a faint smile was carried with rosie till the door.

"Hey sweety welcome home" she said taking his laptop bag, "why are you so late ?" She asked her voice calm and smooth

"Well, I was supposed to reach by morning but this weather ..."

Rosie interuppted him ," Forget it, you are sure to be hungry I made roasted goose, change and come to the table"

There was something odd as Easton never seemed so happy in a while.It was noticed by Rosie too.She arranged the table with deliciously smelling goose roasted with knife stabbed on back, with toppings of cilantro .

"How was your trip darling " Rosie said pouring a glass of wine .

"Great, hectic though."

"I had to tell you something .."

"Later my dear, let me have food ", Esmay said traring the goose in two halfs .

" Well! Did you meet Louisa there?" She sounded a bit defensive .

"No " he said quavering

" Well well! " her countanence had changed, taking a bit of food she glanced easton vividly .

" I have a good news for you, I am pregnant", she said smiling as easton.

"OH ! nice wow " he seemed confused was it an occasion to be happy or sad he continued ,"I  wanted to say that.... "

" Lets celebrate I will get you some more ice",she said and went to the kitchen.
