Paro is outside.. standing on one foot.. soaked to the bones and shivering.. still perseverance that is so strong and a devotion that defies our belief holds her there....
And Rudra who goes to the window to close the binds sees her.. He is shaken.. and her name escapes his lips in a gasp.. ' Paro...'
.
and the very man who hours before told her 'don't come inside till I call you back' and left her there on the courtyard is stunned.. horrified to realize that she has listened to him.. done exactly what he had ordered her to do.. to stand outside...till he called her back...
And to top it.. she has said she will stand on one foot.. and to his horror he realizes that he also told her, 'tera jo marzi hai karo' when she asked that.. literally telling her to do that too! And sweet, straightforward Paro has done exactly that!! His horror has frozen him in shock..seeing her shivering figure... And then he spurns in to action as he rushes out towards her...to stop this atrocity he has sanctioned unwittingly and she has faithfully carried out..
.
his first 'have u gone mad?' is without bite.. its more his shock that is coming out.. 'what kind of madness is this Paro?' he gently queries...
.
And sweet lord she smiles! A radiant smile lights up that angelic face as she turns her face towards him'u came?' as if he was an answer to all her prayers..
.
He still is not able to believe his eyes and once again asks her 'but what r u like this in rain?'
And as always she gives her simple, explanation.. 'but u were the one who told that by doing this u will believe in my love. So how can I...' honestly baffled as to why he is asking her that.. cz she doesn't understand that he didn't mean something so literally...
And he is shocked beyond belief at that.. she is not resentful..not even a bit.. in fact she treats him like the god he has told her, he was not!
.
And before everything his concern overrides. and he asks her to put her foot down..and When Paro puts her foot down its frozen and she whimpers in pain holding her leg.
Rudra asks pained asks 'It pains right?' and Paro keeps looking at him with tear filled wounded eyes
.
And his expression changes when she crumbles in exhaustion after the severe strain she was under for hours on end as she battled the elements for him.. and he catches hold of her to him and hugs her. Shocked...not daring to believe what is in his arms.. that this actually happened.. he still is too shocked for the guilt to assault him.. but its slowly dawning and u could say it while looking at his eyes...as his hands tightened around her..worried..scared...horrified and stunned..
.
And she cuddling like a baby to him whispers, 'now u have belief in me right...' and gently smiles in to his shoulder.
.
And when he calls her and tries to hold her up he sees that she has truly fainted and keeps holding her looking stunned himself.
.
he watches her.. incredulous at this miraculous creature he holds in his arms.. so alien to him..he is fascinated by her..
.
And he gathers her vulnerable form back in to his arms..
.
Rudra learns again and again to his cost and Paro's that she takes things at face value.. so simple a soul she is that she gets under his defenses.. cz she is so vulnerable and defenseless.. he sees an enemy in her and tries to push her away.. but then he sees just how fragile and vulnerable she is.. and cannot bear to hurt her.. cz she is so delicate that she will break..n he is scared and doesn't know what to do with her...
