The Forest

The Forest There once was a little white cottage upon a grassy hill near a dark forest. The family living in it was very happy. They had all they needed. They grew their vegetables in a patch near the home, and they kept a cow, some chickens, and a couple of horses. Joan, the only child of this small family, was always very curious about the forest near her home. To those gazing deep into it, it appeared pitch black. She badgered her parents frequently with questions about the forest, but they were never able to answer all of her questions. They could only say that people did not come out when they went into the forest. While her parents w

Bhumiyan

Bhumiyan Papa settles into bed after turning off the lights and turning on the AC. Mummy is already under the covers with her eyes tightly closed shut. I sleep with my parents until I am eight or nine when I feel like I am old enough to have my own room. In my home village in India, everyone sleeps in the same room together. It is creepy and comforting at the same time. "What story do you want to hear?" he asks. This is a nightly ritual until I get that room. I drink up the attention they shower on me when Papa told me these stories and when I helped Mummy cook dinner. "Tell me about Ram and Sita!" I curl up against his side. "There was o

Nightmarish Monsters

Nightmarish Monsters I don't remember most of my dreams. I start off every morning thinking I had just laid my head down on my pillow moments before. I'll look around me though, and I'll see the remnants of a particularly unpleasant night. My sheets are tangled around my legs. My blanket is wound tightly around me. If I just moved one more inch, my alarm clock would smack my poor unprotected head. Half of my pillows seemed to have disappeared under the bed. I wake up sweaty, covered in unknown scratches and bruises. Sometimes, I'll wake in the midst of a dream. Violence is the usual theme. There are imagined monsters, too grotesque to even

I Have Nothing, part 1

"We need to go," she spoke authoritatively. "Doctors don't make house calls like they used to. It's just easier on them if patients come to them. I don't want to, but we need to do this. If the government found out about this baby, they would make us have an abortion anyway." Tears ran down her pale face as she said that word. Abortion. We created life, and now we would be forced to destroy it. Couples could have children, if they could afford it. We're just two poor college kids though. Love we have in plenty; money we do not. We seem to have everything in the world available to us, but we can't have this baby. My beautiful, confident, int

The Hindian in Me

If my parents were to ever ask you, I pray every day, do not eat meat, and do not want to have anything to do with sex, drugs, and rock and roll. If you tell them otherwise, I will swear to Brahma, Shiva, and Vishnu that you are a big fat liar who only wants to do their precious little girl harm. To them, I am a nice perfect Indian girl who is a devout Hindu, and I want to keep it that way. I was born in India, and my parents immigrated to the United States when I was three years and eleven months old exactly. They are very conservative and traditional in terms of their beliefs and values (to the extent that they still have hopes of arrangin

Catching Up and Begging for an Explanation

0 min read

Let's update on my life first. I have a wonderful amazing boyfriend who lights up my life. He's so awesome. He's sarcastic and quirky and cute and intelligent. This does not mean he's perfect or that our relationship is perfect. It just means I'm happy when I'm with him, so I'm going to keep him for as long as I can. Speaking of my boyfriend, it's a long distance relationship. We've decided we could date those of our own genders in our own areas to fill the void of not having each other within accessible distance. We'll see how this turns out. Hopefully not weird. I have a date with a girl I'm really attracted to on Wednesday, so we'll see.
