"What about the swing on the mango tree?" he asked.
Siri was astounded.
How did Pilu know about the swing and the mango tree?
She showed the next photograph of their garden that had the swing and the mango tree.
"This was decades ago when I was your age! How do you know?" Siri asked.
"I was the one who had set it there for you!"

Life can be so trippy at times. I believe more than I don't.
ReplyDeleteThoughtful story A!
If we do have past lives, I think it's best we don't remember them

Love the supernatural twist at the end. Well done Anita :-)
ReplyDeleteSorry, I don't believe in rebirth--but I loved your story :)
ReplyDeleteAh past lives. I thought no one remembered them.
ReplyDeleteSeems like the makings of an interesting time traveler novel!
ReplyDeleteOh very nice indeed...
ReplyDeleteI think goosebumps would creeping up my spine if my child said that about a picture. A nice chill but not too terrifying which is good :)
ReplyDeleteOooh... I like this!
ReplyDeleteI wonder what Pilu will surprise her with next! Nice one.
ReplyDeleteHere's mine!
Excellent last line! =)
ReplyDeleteHmm,I don't think I do. Not in the way that a person could remember it anyway. Lovely story.
ReplyDeleteNice one. Looks like he has more surprises in store for her.
ReplyDeleteIntriguing story nicely composed.
