The killing
She stared in apprehension, as the man moved forward; wielding the big knife which he had just sharpened. He raised the knife, and brought it down with a huge thrust. Chop! Chop! She shut her eyes and stifled a scream. He finished chopping, and handed over the pork to her, and she walked away hurriedly.
The ambush
He nodded to his two accomplices, as they crouched in position, holding their guns. They heard the approaching footsteps from their hiding place. As the sounds came closer, the three ambushed their target, spraying their water guns. However, bucketfuls of water were splashed on them by the girls, who shouted “Holi Hai!” with mischievous delight.
The shell
He felt he was rather ugly, and hence remained wrapped up in his own shell, not giving a damn about the world outside him. He remained in hiding for two days, not eating anything. When he woke up from his slumber, he broke through his cocoon, and realized he had transformed into a beautiful butterfly.
The stalker
Wherever she walked, the sound followed her. She tried to escape from the source of the sound, and looked over her shoulder at every turn, but saw no one stalking her. She paused to catch her breath, and found that an old tin can with a crooked wire had snagged her dupatta, causing the sound!
Eye exercise
She was wearing a gorgeous yellow dupatta, and her straight hair was neatly plaited. Her luscious lips and expressive eyes nearly took away his breath. He walked across the pavement, staring at her, his eyes taking in every detail of her svelte body. However, his eyes missed the lamp post, which was in his path.
Butterfingers
The cricket ball sailed towards butterfingers at the boundary line, and to his surprise his slippery hands safely pouched the red sphere. He was elated, and began dancing in front of the audience. However, his team mate ran to him and shook him angrily. “Idiot, it’s a no-ball, and they have already run five runs!”
