Sorry for the late response, I had access only to phone yesterday, 

Such a brilliant piece created using very few words! 

I did not just like it. I Lovvved it! 

I'd say not naming the characters worked well here.

This piece so reminded me of a movie in my mother tongue.One that released 30 years ago, but still enjoys a cult status and is one of the finest Malayalam movies ever made. The female lead is a call girl called ' Clara! ' and the hero falls in love with her. They never unite, but Clara remains a beautiful emotion and their love story continues to be a lingering pain, in the heart of every young and old Malayali alive today.

Dear Kaushitaki,

I chanced on this, the title and of course the fact that you penned it catching my attention, and now I am not sure what to call it.

It is a narrative in prose but flow like silken poetry. The feelings are harsh, reflective of the gaudy reality, but somewhere echo the pathos of being labelled viciously and shine with possibility. A brave woman who is free with her emotions is called a s**t because the world cannot handle the brilliance of her love and a man who tries to hard to fit into a label is freed by her presence and realises the courage needed to be true. 

Brilliant narrative and if I may add, the siggy was appropriate too - red high heels (an acceptable euphemism for a girl of "lose" morals, and the withered roots of a tree)

Keep writing and keep sharing.

Best,

Nyna

PS - I did hop over to the forum to read the full story of Jigsaw puzzle, I will come back to leave a comment appropriate to that story.
