" They say money talks,  But all mine says is Goodbye ! "                                                             - Broke Blues It is one of Life's biggest ironies....  Us sacrificing our health to gain and horde wealth, and go on to squander it to regain that lost       health...! But, then again what can you expect of us Earth-Dwellers, who call this planet " Earth", despite  three-fourths of it being covered under water !. It is appalling to see men strut and show off their wealth, women beautifying themselves to the highest degree.  If only they had spend that time to remind themselves that they would eventually end up as fleshless skeletons under the mud, strewn with maggots and what not, they would end this charade  in an instant.

I faintly remember the tears that dripped from my Mother's eyes, seeing my helpless state, and the utterly confused look on my sister's eyes as she looked back-and-forth, trying to get a hang of the commotion. The Ambulance siren was heard soon enough, and I was ta

SCENE 1- THE ROOM The hands in the clock inched towards midnight, as his own hands left his messy face, blurred was his vision as he laid his eyes on the wall, staring at a neat and clean poster of an online music contest. He had been looking forward it since the start of the lockdown, but he didn't have the mood to dedicate himself to it. His eyes drifted over to the calender and eventually to clock, a minute to midnight, and then the realization hit him ! It was her birthday…. (Flashback Hyperlapse initiated) All the moments he had enjoyed, laughed, cried and  spent with her just hit him like a hammer to a nail, sudden and unexpected. The wave of emotions weighed him down to the point he was unable to stand, staring at the phone, crazy in dilemma… He hadn't spoken to her much after their breakup and he didn't want to be the first to break the silence.
