Everything about her was beautiful. Her carefree laughter, her playful banter, so much poise… grace … he thought, as he played with her curly hair.
“She is pretty as a field of spring flowers”, said his friend. He had smiled then.
Now, the look in her eyes will haunt him forever, as she lay lifeless.

Changed it on ‘popular feedback’ (Is there a word like this??, I mean like popular demand!!!)
Most of the time, only the black text was visible on the background of black wooden planks! So changed it to something simpler this time!! 🙂
hey my mum used this template in her bengali music blog too!
surprised not to see a poll by now!
and yeah … did you do this change … with … er … professional help? … 😀
@ Subhayan: Wow! Same pinch to ur Mom! 🙂
A poll is done, when in doubt or when you need some answers…this time I know the answer and am not in doubt at all!
I know Simplicity is the best policy, this time!! 😉
Nah, now I have become a mini-pro myself, so all own efforts!! And you know, the best thing, it didn’t take any time to restore all the widgets too! It was so fast this time!!
I know, I need to thank you! 🙂

I have written a 55 fiction follow up for your story too.This too makes a independent read.Check it out.Here it goes
He loved her dearly, more than even himself. She was intelligent, humane and adorable. He knew it couldn’t be just an accident. Why should she fall off a terrace just like that?

@ Dheeraj Kattula: Hi! Welcome back on “A rose is a rose is a rose!”
That’s just an AMAZING story! I liked it!! And a new angle to my story! Wow!! A very wonderful story indeed! 🙂
Nice one, but I wished if it had been told in some other way. I felt the end was very obvious.
