Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is my first collection of short stories which range from a period of 2008 to 2018. It took me a varied time to write these stories. Some were written in an evening while some took more than 45 days. All of these stories have a story behind them. For example, ‘With Braces’ was born out of a SINGLE SENTENCE on 9Gag, ‘What if you had braces and there were no dentists?’ The 3rd Wheel is what I saw every day during walks and casual outdoor lunches. Op Vijay Memorial is inspired by a female friend’s true experience when she went to Ladakh on a bike. Life’s Trial is a story of a windy rainy evening when I wanted to write something with a twist. The Traveler is when I wanted to write a Sci-Fi without invoking horror and blood. Euthanasia is when I saw relatives and people I knew on a death bed. It also is about what sometimes everyone has thought about themselves on a scary sleepless night Superheroes and Villains is from 2016 when India was still dealing pathetically with the 2012 Delhi rape case. And… Mriya is from an upcoming novel. None of these stories have anything common between them except for me as the writer. The plots and characters in each story are as different as chalk and cheese. Excluding two, there is however one thing which binds all of the stories – Hope. My imaginary world isn’t scarred and behest with nerve-racking experiences.
