Baby’s Room

Dear All,

You know, I sent this story off more than ten days ago and had been chewing my nails - they don`t like it, they HATE it! Felt very sorry and depressed.

Then last night, I got the mail saying that they have published it. YAY! I was so very happy.

Woke up this morning to all of your positive responses. Even Mr Ansari, who I am beginning to feel a little scared of! Thank you all..

Baby`s Room is personally one of my favourites. I love its innocence, and the drama that is built into its small span. Not to speak I am petrified of cockroaches.


Not to spout a cliche, but chowk has made a tremedous difference to my quality of life.

Warm regards

Sucheta

Very well-written. Thank you for a good read.

sucheta....half way through the article, you had me in a state of panic...if it hadn`t been for the reassuring teaser i wouldn`t have been able to go on...great work!

Suchetaaa,

/Humming now to herself, she swept into the room and marching to the window, threw it open.

A fresh cool gust of wind rushed into the room, stirring lazy dust-motes. The dolphins in the mobile danced merrily and the tiny bells jingled along. In the garden below, children shouted, their high fluty voices drifting in. Somewhere not too far a dog barked a joyful bark.

The large leafy tree outside waved its branches and the afternoon sun threw a laughing beam of pure gold into the baby’s room. /

Brings to my mind memories of Karachi, warm afternoons, breezy evenings, palm trees and Sunny Side Rd.

Lovely ending!

Excellently written !!

Nice Sucheta!

Lovely build up - the sober opening, the sudden conflict, the happy ending- brought a smile! You take the reader through an array of emtions through this!

This is a wonderful piece of writing... really enjoyed it.
