CHAPTER I “What do you like to have Krithika?” I queried adjusting my throat. I shouldn’t have had that ice cream at mid night when I need to speak a lot today. Ravi if today isn’t anywhere near great, I will kill you. “Anything you like. After all it’s your birthday.” “Hey come on. No formalities” I tried being the good host. “No. I mean it.

Prologue:“It is 5:30 Anitha, better hurry up!” I told my daughter. Whilst she was bathing, I made sure all her items were ready.

I then connected the other end of the hose to the oxygen packet which she had put on her back.

Usually the noise from the wrecked engine of my vintage bike (vintage for obvious reasons) would cut off any sound that wants to reach my ears. But today was not to be.
