The towering building with a bulwark in front connecting to the field, an epitome of modern architecture, seemed ideal place for her to work her way through the summer job. She wasn't a guest!, yes, she was invited, honorably with all the expense paid to the premier research facility in the country in a city known for its computer and scientific history.

Though she wasn't a hotshot, but was headed and astonishingly aimed ambitiously to achieve the point where one day people would call her an expert.

The cursor blinked at him, like a ticking clock, but the words wouldn’t come. His eyes wandered to the window. He imagined what his parents might be doing in Delhi. Maybe Maa was making chai. Maybe Papa was watching the news. Maybe the house didn’t even feel complete without him anymore. His phone pinged. A message from his sister in Düsseldorf. Didi: “You okay? Missed your call. Also, Maa said, ‘Bas ek baar uski shakal dekh loon toh theek ho jaaye.’...

Changing Fortunes

  On second thought : A tweet from Musk shot up stock prices and changed fortunes. A tweet against Supreme Court in India shot up tempers and changed destinies. The effect of social media is temporal in real lives. When we favor one side that helps society then what stops us from adopting the other side of it ? We are not having a conversation on this currently. As a society we have failed to draw boundaries on the good and the bad, rather what side of each we can accomplish together for a balance
