Snakes and a Girl....

   Pitch darkness crept along the concreted floor of their newly rented old house of more than sixty years.A little boy of  five years must be very hungry at 9 pm. He ran fast to the kitchen soon after the prayers. His mother and sister, a girl of three years followed. Darkness gaped ....two snakes were dancing in the rainy waters of their kitchen and the boy wept into a roar....the mother and the little girl did the same....

   Thunder and lightening shook the old building.

   Both the snakes stared at the intruders...

   Two question marks zig-zagged in the air... up and down.....

Fear drips down along with the torrential rain....

The wind extinguished the candle flame...

A beautiful girl in the darkness slowly lifted the dancing snakes in her hand and vanished....

The mother and the two kids stood dumb....

They really loved their new home...
