The mother smothered her terrified baby in her bosom and sobbed right after the Good Samaritan, who had caught him, regained his balance.
Murmured reactions to the two-story fall had many variations.
“She’s probably on drugs.”
“Toddlers can surprise the best of us.”
“The landlord should be sued!”
But the only reaction that mattered was from that stranger who had raced to the rescue then moved along.

Since so many other online writers have blogs dedicated to their writings, I’ve decided to jump onto the bandwagon. All posts published here will be either fiction or poetry, some new, and some previously published on various places on the Internet. Some of my works are conventional, and some are quirky. All fiction posted here, except for fan fiction, will include the letters "rose" somewhere, as a tribute to my Baba.
Ups and down everyday, let us make dailyliving normal.
Or not, depending on my mood
