“Please. Like you’d turn down that kind of fame, to ‘keep it real’”

“I hate it when you make air quotes. So unnecessary.”

“But I’m right.”

“That’s no excuse for air quotes.”

Kuldeep Singh could see him ahead, kalgi streaming, horse galloping.

All our hopes and prayers. Thank God I’m fighting for the right leader, the right cause, the right reasons.

“Boleeee Soooo Nihaaaal…..” The Guru, sword raised, raced out alone, spearheading the thousands riding behind.

This is it, breathed Kuldeep, as the two armies collided head-on.

Lakhi finished tying his patka and looked himself over, trying to ignore the now purple bruise under his left eye that he got at school. Looking at his face in the mirror, he recited his daily prayer.

“Please, just leave me alone.”

He was moments from delivering the words of hope. The last two sleepless nights had given him just enough time to write a first draft. He still needed to tighten the screws on the title though.

“Meeting with fate”? Nah, too simplistic.

So the prince wonÂ’t listen to him? Hah. All I have to do is send the email to the biggest loudmouth, and hope that he squeals. And talk he did.
