Chronicles of a 90's Boomer: A Micro short story

Meet Bala - a 90's kid armed with floppy disks, dial-up dreams, and a heart full of unspoken emotions. In a world racing towards artificial intelligence, swipe-right marriages, and hyper-progressive expectations, Bala stands as a confused-but-honest relic of a simpler time. Chronicles of a 90's Boomer is a hilariously self-deprecating, bittersweet journey of a young man navigating the absurdities of love, arranged marriages, parental pressures, social awkwardness, and outdated horoscopes - all while trying not to get emotionally entangled in a world that demands speed and spark.

From blushing during accidental bus seat encounters, to dodging rishta interviews like a contestant on a reality show, Bala's story is both painfully real and side-splittingly funny. Through micro-stories, sharp observations, and a generous dose of sarcasm, the book highlights the dilemma of being caught between tradition and emotion, culture and common sense.

This is not a romantic tale. Nor is it a self-help guide. It's a no-filter rant of a sensitive, shy, and sometimes socially-anxious young man - trying to find meaning, or at least some peace, in the chaos of expectations.

Chronicles of a 90's Boomer is not just a story. It's a mirror for the misunderstood, the late bloomers, the introverts - and every 90s soul still trying to figure out where they belong.
