Stranger Outside?

"It's there! Look outside the window now!" Sria commanded her husband, Kris.

"Sria, please understand there is NO ALIEN outside," Kris comforted his terrified wife.

"You need good rest. The doctor has prescribed these pills. You'll be fine", Kris said as he monitored the necessary medication.

Kris stopped the video-recording of the incident.

Videos like these would come in handy as evidence to prove that Sria was mad.

Shhh! Don't Tell Anyone

Chosen as a WOW Post HERE

A Std-IX girls party was on in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India.

"Truth or Dare?"

When Siddha chose "Truth", her friends asked her to reveal a secret.

She had to share a secret which she never wanted anyone to know.

The honest girl that she was, Siddha did share what she had kept hidden for long.

Even her closest friends did not know.

"My nickname is 'Bayani'."

There was a pin-drop silence and then all the girls burst out laughing. 

'Bayani' means 'mad girl' in Odia language.
It is quite the same as the word 'Pagli' in Hindi language.

Anyone who knew Siddha, could vouch how mismatched her nickname was with her know-it-all and responsible personality. Her great grandmother had zestfully nicknamed her 'Bayani' and the name had stuck with her extended family. Her parents called her 'Siddha'- that means 'an ascetic who has achieved enlightenment'. 

The girls were laughing out loud as if it was the funniest joke they had heard.
