Pankaj's Short Stories

The Bridge 🌿

A see was travelling in a train. She had a precious gold chain around her neck. It was shining in the moonlight. She was very happy. She was going to her home. The woman was standing near the door of the train and watching the scenery outside. Two people saw her gold chain. Greed arose in their mind. Most of the people were asleep at that time. Two people came to the woman and asked for the gold chain from her. The woman flatly refused. Then those two people tried to snatch the chain from the woman. The train was passing through a bridge. In this scuffle, those two people pushed the woman and took the chain from her neck. The woman fell straight into the river. The flow of the river was very fast. The woman was swept away in the strong current of the river screaming and shouting. Both of them were smiling at that woman. After a few days, they were watching TV in their home and were discussing that tonight again a woman should be robbed. It was raining heavily outside. Their house was situated near the river. The house was very old. Perhaps that house was built by their great grandfather. The water level of the river started rising. The water of the river started getting faster. After some time the water of the river took the form of a flood. Their house was destroyed in this terrible flood. Those people and their house got submerged in the fast flow of water.
