Sweat beads trickle on my forehead, as I prepare myself for the long summer night. This is what I had been dreading for long.
Whatever I try, the fan refuses to run tonight.

DeleteArgh-don't even remind me!I dislike Summers specially where I live,it's very humid too!An interesting take on the prompt & dealt with adeptly:-)
ReplyDeleteSummer can be tough, specially in places like Kolkata where the humidity is so high :-)
DeleteI can picture this; but where I live right now a fan is about the last thing I would need. (Ha!)
ReplyDeleteAdn where I live, the fan is the first thing I would need :-P
DeleteDon't experience much of these nights in Scotland. Maybe you should move here GS :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the invite my friend :-)
DeleteOh those unbearable summer nights. I never complain about winter anymore!
ReplyDeleteWinters are soothing !!!
DeleteNever had a need for a fan. But I can sympathize with you.. :-)
ReplyDeleteLucky you :-P
DeleteWell done! The atmosphere you are attempting to create is easy to feel. The humidity is pouring off of your blog. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope this humidity is bearable ;-)
DeleteThose hot nights can be bad indeed.
ReplyDeleteVery :-(
DeleteI'm dying with you. Spent many nights like this. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThanks for understanding the pain ;-)
DeleteI much prefer autumn and winter for this very reason :)
ReplyDeleteYa they are better :-)
Deleteand of course it worked just fine until now...
ReplyDeleteNice little twist there, well done!
Thanks Brain :-)
DeleteRight now, in the Northeast, I'd give for a sweaty night >__<
ReplyDeleteAnd I would prefer to be where you are ;-)
DeleteOh no! I hate when the fan dies on nights like that. Nicely written piece!
ReplyDeleteThanks Suzanne :-)
DeleteHaha! So funny :P Poor you. I can understand what a non-functional fan can do for us Indians, that too in summers!
ReplyDeleteYes, we are left to the mercy of electricity :-)
DeleteOh yes,Indian summers merit a fan that too 24x7...
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely :-)
DeleteHa. I know the feeling. We only get a half-dozen or so hot nights each summer, but the chances of the fan actually working when we need it? Slim, slim, slim.
ReplyDeleteThat's the irony of life :-)
DeleteArrival of summer already scaring you!
ReplyDeleteThe humidity here is killing !!!
