Immersed in love

When you view it

From viewpoint of heart!

  In the Dark Corner  ****************** Away from hustle bustle of  picnic spot, a ripe-aged man was standing in a dark corner of park, was taking puffs of cigarette. Enjoying smoking, he was interrupted by an inquisite young man, who was curious to know why that old man was standing there alone, puffing cigarette.

The young man replied, "I don't want to be noticed by my parents that I smoke" Rajni Chhabra 22/10/2024
