VSS-5
Let me tell u a piece of truth,
It wasnt my first visit.
Still I was shyer for two prominent reasons.
Firstly,
the one to one interaction with a total stranger in an abruptly lit
room is unsatisfying.
And secondly, I the client , had to sufficiently groom myself for the
success of the event.
Attempting to trace my requirements, a man takes me aside, carefully
opens an album and turns to page-7.
I stare.
The damsel on the page is attractive. Adorned with blakened eyebrows,
fair-skinned cheeks, she pleased my eyes instantly.
I needed this.
"40 for one" My neighbour quoted the price accented in a local dialect..!
I pretended to ignore.
"Do you have large ...." Rephrasing the interrogation wasnt necessary.
he smiled me right and flipped 3 pages.
The bargain ended soon and I was tiptoed to a semi-dark enclosure.
Succumbing to a chair, I tried to confident myself.
A voice mumbled, "Say Cheese"

If still unclear , this concerns a photo session..!
yeah,figured that outby the end. the subject treatment was unusual but very interesting
nicely written. having so wild thoughts is nice. but the choice of the incident not so apealing.
a suggestion. its a bad idea to hide the surroundings and then unveiling at the end like a suspense.
try playing with human natures and attitudes in ur next vss :). i guess u must hav read o henry short stories.
keep writing.
-sirish-
nice try there with the twist-in-the-'tail' genre...but I find almost all blogs which feature short stories going in for this approach...
Hey Sathya, thanx fr the comment, well its the standard approach now, considering that u need to finish the plot in few words and also make it memorable.
You take care dude!!!
and get well soon.
I like your stories. Short and to the point. I have tried to write such short stories but can't.
I see you have not updated for a long time. You should write
Punds
the mystery reveals itself, finally in the end, just like nolan's the dark knight rises \m/
