'Millennial Tales' is a collection of short stories that portray our society and its happenings.Every person reacts to circumstances in a unique way and it is this display of emotions that has been the foundation for spinning yarns to weave my stories. Each of these stories is the result of my desire to reflect and comment in an interesting manner on whatever I have seen, heard, or read.All characters featured in the stories are a product of my imagination, and therefore, fictional. Any resemblance to people in real life is purely coincidental. My apologies if some sentiments have been hurt in the process. Happy reading!
