They waited anxiously for little Pia to open her eyes. The gorgeous black eyes that once belonged to their darling would now open the world of sights to another beautiful soul.
The initial shock over their only daughter’s untimely death had been too much, but her last wish, to donate her eyes, had made them feel proud to have her as their daughter. All those days spent fervently in prayers for her recovery, the tubes attached to their daughter’s frail body – all came reeling into their minds. In the end, true to her name, Roshni left, leaving a light on this world, for little Pia.

Writing to me is therapy, it frightens and comforts at the same time. Liberates like nothing else. A book in my own name is a dream, but a bigger dream would be to write something that haunts the reader even after the last page is turned and the book is shut. I enjoy reading and music, spending time with family whilst battling my social awkwardness.
