Short Story: The Taxi Ride by Sahana Ahmed

Sahana Ahmed’s short story captures the social divide of a metropolis like Mumbai and leaves the reader thinking.

The taxi brakes to a halt at Khada Parsi Chowk. ‘What happened?’ I ask the driver.

‘Construction work, Madam.’

I see a yellow board: ‘DRIVE CAREFULLY, SLIPERY ROAD.’ Looks like a P slipped away.
