“Sir, there is an emergency at terminal 4. One of the cranes….” Madhav did not wait to hear the rest.
Grabbing his bright orange safety helmet, he darted out. He was a captain who believed in going down with his ship if it came to that.
Many employees were rushing towards terminal 4 and Madhav quickly joined them.
His eyes took a moment to understand the situation; workers in blue uniforms were thronging near a table, their expressions very sober.
On the table, he saw a cake with the words, Happy Birthday Madhav Sir.
A lone tear escaped his eyes.

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.
