Dear readers, I'm presenting you a story that I wrote a while ago, even before my first novel. It bears a special place in my heart as it helped me to discover the writer inside me. I hope you enjoy it :)

'Human After All' is a phrase I picked up from a favorite song of mine by Level 42. It struck me as being so basic yet poignant to the human condition that I had to make it the underlying theme of my story. So while reading it and pondering about the goings on I'd ask all of you to keep it in my mind, that we are all 'Human After All'-- liable to make mistakes, jump to conclusions, have misunderstandings and be generally crazy!

Character sketch:

Khanak Agarwal is a young, sincere, hardworking doctor who truly believes in the essential goodness of mankind.

I looked at his eyes and put up a strong face. His eyes bore into mine as much as mine into his. It was like he could read my mind and reach out to my soul just by looking into my eyes. I tried to read his thoughts, too, but it felt like he had blocked me out this time. Nothing seemed clear to me anymore. Tears were burning behind my eyes and threatening to pour out. I forced myself to hold them back and asked him, "Just revenge?" Without a ting of emotion on his face, he said, "Just Revenge." ********************************************* Amelia Lawson had a perfect life. In the eyes of the world, Amelia, or Amy as most would call her, had everything you ever wanted. A successful career, rich background, a loving brother, and a handsome boyfriend turned husband.

Dr. Beast and His Inamorata by crazy_writer_97

#1 in Doctor series "Doctor!!" A soft, warm, and euphonic voice of Dr. Ishaan came from very behind me. I whirled. "Hhaammppff" I gasped, finding him standing very, very, very close to me. I took a step back and stick my back with the table. His face was neutral but his eyes glistened similar to that of the tip of the iceberg on a sunny day. Placing his hands upon the table on either side of my body, and trapping me, he lowered his head, precisely near my left ear. "Did I say," he crooned softly, then raising his head and gazing deeply into my eyes, he shifted to my right ear... I gulped and started breathing heavily. With his left hand, he tucked my short, wavy hair strands behind the right ear. "That. You. Look. Elegant. In. Maroon," he complimented, and taking a few steps back gazing at me deeply, he turned around and... he wandered off leaving me numb. **** On her first day in a hospital as a postgraduate in General Surgery, Ishika Mishra was surprised to learn the truth that the man with whom she had a disrespectful encounter in front of her dad's factory was her senior Surgeon, Dr. Ishaan Sharma. Who is one big apathetic creature of the world and behaved like a stranger to her in the hospital? Though being kind-hearted, there was some distressing incident in Ishaan's past that impelled him to live a life of loneliness, seclusion, and unhappiness. For a girl with the essence of high spirit and zest, that was an indigestible fact. Hence to know him, to perceive him Ishika gets down to provoke him. Indeed, it leads Ishaan's temper to go to the peak of irritation. His flare-up comes out in form of either yelling at her or avoiding her. Howbeit, working in the same hospital and even department, situations bring them to stand in front of each other. Neither does she stop annoying him nor does he stop being arrogant with her. Nevertheless, their hearts enhance one strong emotion that eventually, leads them to seek each other.

#1 in short-story out of 325K stories!! on 28 September 2023 Give it a try!! ---‐-------- "So I was not worthy of you?" It was more of a statement for Anvi. Her voice was broken. Rudra prayed her finger from the necklace and held her hand. "Sweet.....It was never about what I thought. It was always about what you thought." Rudra pulled up her chin gently to look into her eyes. "If you thought you were good enough for me, you would have never proposed the deal. You would have never put your health at risk to achieve it. And yet I had always seen you as a kind little girl who took care of me like a mother. Who would make samosas for me when I came home. Who would wait outside my room for hours together. Who would make sure that my socks were restocked every summer. And many other things.....Baby it never occurred to me to measure your worth. I was not in love with you back then, but you were a part of my life, sweet." He finished with a sweet tender kiss. "You..you..knew?" A very red Anvi asked in astonishment. "What? That I was your first crush?" He smirked, turning her redder by the second. "Now let me kiss you before you put on that lipstick." He pulled her into a soul-satisfying kiss. ______________ It is a beautiful journey of Anvi and Rudra. A short heart warming love story.
