Now, I can.

Another Saturday afternoon, she shut her laptop nonchalantly. Her dad flung the newspaper aside.

 

She was tired of the newsfeed on her Facebook wall. Everyone seemed to be going places-the single guys on their backpacking ventures, the happy couples on their never ending honeymoon, the single girls hanging-out with their buddy groups. She wanted some part of each of these. For long now, she had imagined her life to be tagged #Backpacking #Happy #Single. If only....

 

Her Dad was frustrated to read about yet another rape case. He looked at his daughter. Their recent conversation still nagging him. He knew how much she loved being outdoors and how good she was with her camera. But his concern had weighed more than that when he had refused her taking up a challenging assignment as a travel photographer.

 

The next day she found, gift wrapped by her bedside, an ASUS Zenfone with a note:

"Go for it, but know that I'll be waiting to hear from you"

 

He was genuinely happy seeing her excitedly checking all the features the phone provided. And suddenly.. like magic...she was no longer there. Panic struck him as he was desperately clawing at where she had stood a second before. She could not understand why he was calling her so alarmingly. She locked her phone and tried to calm her Dad. But he seemed all the more shocked at her touch.

 

"Where the hell did you vanish!" he stammered still half-believing his own eyes.

She had no reply as she had stood exactly where she was. Her mind wandered to the feature she was checking: The Cloak. Grabbing her phone and reading about it, she realized she now had the power she longed for. Unlike Mr. India, She  knew the technology behind this. She would appear to vanish while her mobile took care to re-construct her background visual; masking her presence, fooling everybody around. Her own technology assisted Invisibility cloak.

 

This was her superpower. A safe escape during any life threatening situation.[except the bears and the rest of animal world]. Working at odd hours, walking on empty streets, star gazing, catching that breath-taking sunrise, she could go any place anytime without a fear of harm. Without having to find a safe hang-out group. Without her Dad having to worry.

 

Her poster perfect pictures now say #Backpacking #Happy #Single
