The Runaway Groom

I am a village boy and the scene start with me running away from home. It's a pretty poor village with people living in lowly conditions. There have been rains for the last few days and so muddy pools can be seen all around.

I run and run and reach some other village where I hide in a corner of a abandoned house. I stand there for a few hours without food or water covered up in mud gathered over the past few hours.

The scene changes. I(I here on my bed , not that village boy) see a search party being formed from the village. They go to look in the neighbouring villages. After a few hours of desperate searching, one young lad with a danda finds me. Because he had that danda which shook off the thoughts of fighting and running away again, I had to submit.

So I am brought back to village and it is here that the story becomes clear. The time setting is somewhere in India around 50 years back when child marriages were common. I didn't want to marry and hence ran away.

Now the twist. Since I had run away ,so the girl was married off to some other fat kid and she actually turned out to be my very close friend. What a sad day! I had run away coz of the thought that the girl to be dumped on me was some ugly fat lass. DHOKHA ho gaya...

I am Hitman

This is really cool… I just got my hands on the latest Hitman game and the first night after playing a bit of it, I am already into it.

I have seen only a few levels, and the second one with a waterfall as the backdrop is the location of this adventure. I am Hitman, and I walk into a hut like structure on the cliff opposite the waterfall. Mr. Target is standing by the window, gazing at the beauty of the falling hydrogen and oxygen atoms; not having the slightest of idea as to what comes up behind him. I approach him, and as silently as ever, release his soul from the evil body by a clever use of a contraption called a fiber-wire.

Then I casually walk outside to have a look at what the deceased was looking at moments ago. And as an alibi of sorts, there comes a lady teacher with a group of blind children to have a picnic at the place. The way it is to be put is that I have accompanied her from the school to this place along with the children.

Pretty foolish actually, since Hitman is a shadowy figure and an alibi is definitely not what he needs. Nobody has proof he exists, so why this alibi thing?
