Stranger's Death: A Short Story

An Ordinary Morning, A Silent Change

On a quiet winter morning in Delhi, a familiar routine breaks. The house feels different. The air feels heavier. What begins as an ordinary day slowly turns into a silent encounter with life, loss, and an unseen truth waiting to be noticed.

A Stranger Who Was Never Truly Known

Some people live beside us for years, yet remain strangers. Some endings arrive without warning. Through gentle observation and quiet moments, this story reflects on how easily we overlook the lives moving around us — until one absence suddenly becomes louder than any presence.

A Mother's Wisdom, A Son's Realisation

Through tender conversations and a mother's simple yet powerful words, the story explores how modern life has changed our idea of living. We run faster, we achieve more, yet breathe less. The past struggled to survive. The present struggles to feel alive.

Still Breathing

Stranger's Death is not a story meant to shock. It is meant to awaken. It speaks about forgotten pauses, unnoticed connections, and the fragile truth that we remember how to live only when something reminds us that we are still breathing.

Soft, emotional, and deeply human, this short story invites you to slow down — just long enough to see what you may have been missing all along.

Because sometimes, life does not change in loud moments.

It changes in silence.
