A quick tale 24

Photo

They were surprised by her decision not to have father's photograph in the house. They didn't know that she wanted to remember him as a complex human with capacity for infinite love and a foul temper that made him a monster to live with. And not just as an old man with a benign, toothless smile beaming down from their living room wall.

    நினைவில் நின்றால் போதும்........
    நிழல் வேண்டுமா என்ன?

    என்பதை
    இப்படியும் எடுத்துக்கொள்ளலாம்

    நிழலைப் பார்த்துப் பார்த்து
    நினைக்க வேண்டாமே...!

    என்றும் அன்புடன்,

  2. Y'know Ammani, leaving a comment for your short tales is getting a bit repetitive - all I seem to keep saying is "NICE" ;)

    Oh allright, of COURSE I'm not complaining... just my attempt at being funny-haha. :)

    And as always, love the story. I check your blog every day for more!
