5..4..3..2..1..!
Boom! The blast ripped the solemn congregation to bloody tatters.
Dead bodies lay scattered along with slippers and debris soaked in blood, traumatized survivors wailed or simply stared in silent shock.
Oblivious to the horror I would have caused, my last thoughts as I pressed the button was that of meeting God in paradise.

Quite a picture you have painted here…I could visualize the calamity and then see him go…Very nice!
Thanks Kajal. Glad you liked it 🙂
Paradise? Hell might have been a better word?
Destination Infinity
True, but they are brainwashed to think otherwise! 😐
Such stories should be left untold where bombers think about Heaven while snatching away lives of so many innocent ones.:P
After this gruesome crime and killing so many innocent lives, they shouldn’t even get a place in hell.
A modern day curse, well penned, Shilpa!
Thanks Mr Bhatia!
Lucky you. You will get 72 virgins as soon as you go there.
Ha! Some fancy world they live in when on earth. I am sure that women are not viewed as a commodity in heaven, if that exists!
I really wonder what goes on in their heads. Do they really buy this crap of meeting virgins in heaven after killing innocents? Nicely penned!
Only some very ignorant and dumb people could be brainwashed to believe such a crappy thing!! Thanks Rachna.
The thots of a Jihadi … v v well penned Shilpa!
Thank you Meena.
A unique piece. It’s sad how these people are brainwashed to think that they’ll get paradise and all that blah blah if they kill innocent people. Sad.
I know, truly sad and tragic!
Wow! That was a brilliant take on the prompt!
It can so scary to wonder how a person can be dangerously blinded by faith or religion!
Yeah, really surprising. Read about an Afghan boy who shared how they are brainwashed into believing they will survive!

Very well composed Shilpa..!!
Thanks Aakanksha.
Very well-written F-55.
Thank you Kalpana.
Different take on the prompt Shilpa. Came here after a long gap, you’ve designed your blog beautifully 🙂
Thanks and good to see you after a long time, Saravana!
The fanaticism and the obsession with blind ideologies such men have has been well brought out Shilpa .
Thanks Jayashree.
I love the way you build your thoughts powerfully with few words. More power to your pen err…keyboard, shilpa.
Aww!! Thanks a lot, Asha! You are too generous 🙂
Absolute sinister!
Oh yes, sadly!
That was a chilling account Shilpa. The entire thought process is warped. Congratulations for the WOW post award :-).
Agree, it is so sad that the suicide bombers are brainwashed to believe that what they would be doing is noble and right!! 🙁
Thanks OM 🙂
Crisp narration Shilpa, it is a pity how innocence is brainwashed to sinister. Violence is never justified for the end is only more loss…
True, it is so sad and tragic that people are so blind that they cant think the obvious! 😐
really good!
