Dangerous Love!

-
John was happily married with his childhood friend Maria and had two beautiful children. He felt fulfilled and complete till he shifted to US recently for a work assignment with them. He was deployed in a complex software project by his company and his manager wanted him to  shift to their US headquarter.There he met Sophia, a perfect lady. Soon, John realised he was missing a major happiness in his life. Its only few months since he is working with Sophia and he get mesmerised by every action of her. How beautifully Sophia handle all the complex situations of their work, the way she delivers her thoughts to her people, the way she talks in perfectly grammatical English, her gestures, her facial expressions. He felt how can a woman be so perfect. John started spending more and more time in office with Sophia and no wonder that it didn't took much time for him to fall in love with Sophia and convey the same to her. Sophia questioned his loyalty and challenged him to prove his true love.
He decided to leave everything, even his kids for getting united with Sophia to prove his love for her.
When he conveyed his feelings and dis-interest in Maria, she gave up silently and gracefully and moved out of US with the children to never return back.
John felt relieved for getting over Maria so easily and it was perfect timing to propose Sophia for marriage right now.
When John excitingly announced of his freedom to marry to Sophia, she laughed..."Look, Human got fooled by a machine once again..ha ha ha".
John looked blank and said what does that mean?
Sophia laughed louder " I knew you are a fool but didn't know to this extend".
"What ?" John was astonished.He looked pale as if someone has moved the ground below his feet.
Sophia"..I am a robot..I can show emotions"
John "I dont believe you...you are joking"
Sophia spinned her head 360 degree.
John couldn't hold his tears...he shouted "Sophia..why did you do this to me? Why did you spoiled my family? Ruined my life?
Sophia- " Sorry , not my fault..My maker mistakenly kept the" Play with Human emotions button" on while deploying me in live environment".
John eyes went black and lips got pale, he was perspiring heavily in the coldest month of US and fainted on the ground.

PS: Dedicated to every John who leaves a Maria at home to fall for Sophia!

It was thundering outside. Meera felt the quench to tell her feelings to childhood friend Raghav today. She out-poured her emotions in her miniature manuscript  and made a paper-plane to land in Raghav's desk in the library. Raghav was enjoying rain outside the library window. He didn't notice the content in the paper and re-folded it to a boat out of childish excitement to float it in the rain. There came Meera to see her emotions bleeding in blue in the rain water. Raghav said to Meera :"Remember Meera, We floated our first boat together while in class 1". Meera smiled.

Memories and Books

-
Memories are like your favorite book, you pick it up to get just another look. With a smile you read it again but you know the story, you have been through its all ups, downs and glory. Few chapters you want to revisit  more often, while many others you have deliberately forgotten. You skip pages intentionally as your heart fires as ember, true that some memories are not worth enough to remember. A page got folded un-noticed,  the last time you read it through, And you unfurl it back to its own shape to make it look all new. And while glancing through those treasured lines of that favorite verse once more, engrossed, you hold the book close to your heart while a dried rose drops on the floor. For few seconds, the sudden fragrance of the beautiful moments of the past comes alive, oh dear! the pressed flower has now lost its radiance as it couldn't survive. It reminds you were compelled to keep it away due to its thorns, but, you loved it so much that even today your heart mourn...

And they got accustomed too!!

The officials visited each house of the town, No one was spared, white, black or brown. They hung a device over the throat which could count phrases per day, This is how they put a check on the number of words you could say.  Few agreed happily, some protested, but everyone had to accept, Noise pollution reached its highest level and this is how check was kept.  One-two-three-four device counted in a line,  The machine beeped when it crossed ninety-nine. Any shout costed five words in a shot, First many days were extremely tough! The babies could not cry their heart out, The mothers couldn't shout, The lovers fall short for words to propose, The old spoke the word as a dose.  The dusky girl who loved chatting all day, Cried and tried but could not find a way.  Then one day when she was almost ran out of her limit, Her granny came in her dream and gave her a surprise visit. She conveyed her pain to Granny but her words were short by ten...
