About the Book : “A woman is a palette of hues and has various shades to her persona. She desires nothing, but love. If she feels loved, she shines, opens her wings and touches the sky; radiating the whole world. If she does not, she cribs for some time, may get angry too; but then finds her own horizons in the space provided. She does not stop anywhere. She is always adapting to the situations and then also modifying herself accordingly and learning to grow in the worst of situations. Tales from Venus makes you aware of the various colours of a woman right from teens till she matures. There are tales that tickle your bones, tales that make you feel emotional, tales of courage, tales of treachery, tales that thrill you and tales that make you happy. Ultimately, you are bound to remain glued to the book because of the surprise element offered by each story.”
Excerpts from the book – Tales from Venus
Papa, I am in Love
“Papa, I think I am in love. I had never thought that this miracle will happen to me. Now that it has happened, I am so happy!”
“Wow! That is wonderful! So very wonderful! And who is the lucky chap?”
“Papa, he will come to meet you in an hour by 5 p.m. I want you to see him and accept him totally. I know that you will like him.”
“What if I don’t? Do I have the option of liking him or not liking him? Or is it compulsory for me to like him?”
“Of course, you have the option of not liking him. But, I am sure that you will like him. He is so good. He is someone whom everyone marvels at. Papa, he is awesome!”
“Are you talking about your boyfriend or some material in a show room?”
“Papa, you are too funny. You always talk nonsense. Obviously, I am talking about Sandy. I love Sandy with all my heart, my soul and my spirit. It is so nice a feeling to be in love. I am enjoying being in love.”
“Yeah, I can see that. Since when are you in love with this Sandy?”
“Papa, he proposed to me yesterday. And I am in love with him since then.”
