thank you ruchibabbly, AditiD, kscjk, Nabesa, imissouri, khus1973, rmonte72, trimasu, masumasrilanka, thujaa, zorinatm, laxmi_avinafan, DAIRY25, laxmis, sugarandspice, Liashna, sweetrose92, *Maleena*, chalhov, NiHa24, v3gradev09, _Sahra_, Indiangirl09, fatssrilanka, -Madhu-, ekta-avinafan, radha_bilahari, abhilasha_dream, bvs7691, radev_forever, anu17, for liking my bridge part 121.
Time is passing quick for me and trying to reach everywhere. I wish to write that traveloge Lexmi, maybe I wrote already in my mind, i like to talk to self.. so it didn't come to my fingers. I met one of the forum member when i went to India and she told me with a smile "now we may have to read all this once you reach back". even though it was a very short meet.
The sound of drumming rain drops was filled most of the days, but we were very blessed that it never hintered our plan, as if the nature was with us through out.
I argued with my best friend regarding the changes i am seeing around in people's nature, but he debated with me and made me to accept nothing changed, even the new generation.. they are same like our time..
I am sure its all changed, which maybe not good for my eyes, the newspaper itself doesn't have anything good to read..which in turn make us to look at everyone in suspecion. Wish for a time machine to take me back, so back where atleast we all can trust others blindly, and my kids can run out of that open gate of our compound and join with neighbor kids and play all along without fear. wish to talk to that stranger who just passed by my house front and share that smile.
Even the plants changed its shape and smell. so many new breeds, with different colors and difficult to find a thechi "big round red flower petals in bunch' or jasmines. .. first time i felt like i am a visitor, and i am very old, older than my age. The shops and the street ..many times told me that, ad i felt like I am just a travellor, but i smiled thru it, seeing both sides of changes.
But its the nature which held me close, gave me everything possible within these few days. few asked us "why you came in this mansoon, its all dirty here with power cut and difficult to move around'/.. with a smile I said " we came to feel that, i came to feel that difficulty, to feel my land, to smell that scent of riped jackfruit and hear the drumming rains. " we never used umbrellas, we were the only couple not bothered about it, don't know how we survived, but the nature was open for us and my kids enjoyed it too.
whatever..., i love my land in its purest form... if lucky will feel it again in future...
Oh lord, give me the wings of that tiny butterfly and let me fly above this nature , where i can feel the nectar of its beauty and immerse in its love...

Part 122

Sushma got surprised to see Lechu running around the living room with sofa pillows in her hand.

Suchma: Lechu, are you ok?

Lechu in a very matured tone: why bua?

Sushma : nothing, I never seen you waking up this early, I used to call you after my morning walk, right? and now you are picking the sofa pillows and arranging the flower vase and all. !!.

Suddenly raising her voice in a tensed way , Lechu said: bua, don't you know, Sammy and all will be here at any minute, and see nothing seems to be in order here.

Sushma stood puzzled with parted lips for few seconds , and thought to self: no woder she came early with Dev the other day and ignored Radhika's request to be with her , she chose to come with me here, and was behind the plants outside to choose these fresh flowers to arrange the vase and then cleaning the rooms and rearranging everything .

"Bua, don't simply stand like that, make that sweet dish too, Sammy loves sweets, and I told him you are the best, please don't spoil my words. "

But that didn't move Sushma from her posture, she was imagining Lechu from the minute she saw her for the first time and her interactions towards late. "Is this the same girl, now worried about keeping her house tidy and beautiful?" she murmered inside.

Lechu's voice raised to its high point: Buaaa

Shaking her neck slightly , Sushma looked at Lechu with widened eyes

Lechu : please buva, I need to get ready soon too. But I want to learn how you make it.

Sushma: what? You want to learn what?

Lechu: bua, to make the sweets

Sushma in trance: ha

Lechu: then come but then pausing for a second she said: Bua, look around and tell me how it looks?

Sushma's eyes just scanned all thru once and nodded her head in agrement

Lechu curving her lips down , with a disappointed tone said: just this?

Sushma chuckling her throat: no beta, it really looks beautiful, and its not the place, but your effort which surprised me, and I am still surprised to see the change.

"don't worry bua, its all just for today, tomorrow, she will be in that bed, sleeping"

Sushma and Lechu turned their neck to look at the voice side and found smiley face of Dev and Radhika standing at the door.

Lechu: Bro, you never change

Dev: um, I knew it, the intention behind your missing feeling for your bhabhi.

Lechu looking at Radhika: bhabhi, don't believe him, he is making up, really I missed you lot, so only I came.

Dev: ha, so only the next day morning without even brushing your teeth you ran to here from Rahdika's house.

Lechu stamping her feet on the floor hard: Bhabhi, ask your hubby to hold his tongue, didn't you see me brushing my teeth, even I had breakfast too.

Radhika just smiled along with Sushma

Dev: ha, that's because babuji told you to have breakfast, and you just sat without brushing your teeth

Lechu : BROoo

Dev: um

Lechu again stamping her feet on the floor: I am not going to talk to you anymore. Then looking at Sushma and holding her hand: bua, come, let's make the sweet

Dev: what!

Lechu looking at sushma: don't listen to him, you come with me

Dev: you are going to make sweet, please, Lechu, and then coming near syshma: bua ji, your sweets are so famous, why you need to spoil your reputation like this

Lechu: this is the limit, Bro, Bhabhi, take your husband away, or his she paused with reddened cheeks with anger

Dev: or his, what? Tell Lechu, what? I am telling for your goodness only. I think Sammy knows you well already and now he likes you too

"not likes, he loves me" lechu interrupted with an uninterested tone

Dev controlling his smile: ha, he loves you, why you are trying to force him to hate you too

Lechu: Buaaa

Dev: ha bua, why you are taking this step by making her to cook, I am glad, I knew it now, otherwise poor my stomach. Mei tho bach gaya.

Lechu: Bua, tell him that I am just going to watch you, that's all,

Dev: oh really, I thought, today itself you will force Sammy to take that ring away from you after tasting that sweet you made.

Lehcu: buaaa

Sushma: Dev. Don't underestimate my Lechu Ok, I am sure, she can ccok tastey foods, and one day if she really wish, then I will give her my secret recipie too, and then you will be behind her to make more of those sweets.

Lechu looked at her Bro proudly

Dev: Bua, don't take such big decisions, poor Sammy

Sushma: why?

Dev: um, I already experienced the result of getting secret recipies, and I can't even imagine how patheitic sammy's condision will be eating sweet from the morning till night and then his friends condiitons too.

Radhika looked at him with widening her eyes: is he really remembering those poori days still

And as if hearing to her mind talk

Dev: how can I forget Radhika, today I had the same breakfast, right.

Sushma smiling: ok baba, you had your breakfast and morning walk and all. Babuji may be coming back now, I need to get the breakfast ready for him, you kids, took me into your talks, let me go

Lechu: see that is what I am also telling, come, don't waste time by listening to Bro, bhabhi you too come.

Radhika smiled and went along with sushma and Lechu to the kitchen.

Dev stood there with a smily face, keeping his hands over the flanks, rescripting Bua's words and though to self" "who gave you this secret recipe bua, that made dad to be back of you and made my dadi jealous".

Time ticked by and soon it was noice filled air with family talking and teasing.

Dev went along with Dadaji to meet one of the village officer. Suchi was busy smiling wide and behind Lechu forcing her to slow down things, whereas Sammy made Suchi's concern light by holding her shoulder and saying"it's ok'

They all were walking and talking around the open field, and Lechu was showing her skill on riding that tractor and hawling loud, Sammy noticed Radhika standing alone at a distance, just looking at the horizon. He went near and stood along with her and looked at the same direction where her eyes are fixed. He felt the moving wind, and he could see the flying cloud, few monutes passed

"did you miss your land bhabhi?'

The sound of Sammy moved Radhika slightly and she looked at him with a smile and asked: what?

Sammy with a msile: did you miss your land badly?

Radhika: why?

Smamy: no, simply

Radhika smiled

Sammy: not that simply, the way you are standing away from everyone and looking at the horizon, and then feeling this atmosphere '.it seems like you missed your land a lot.

Radhika looked back again in to the empty atmosphere and said: no Sammy, I don't know what I missed.

Sammy tightening his forehead: then I am sure, you are thinking about something seriously

Radhika with a smile: no Sammy , there is nothing to think about

Sammmy: that is interesting, but I am sure something going on, or else you won't be standing like this

Radhika: I don't know Sammy, I simply stood, that's all

Sammy: then that means you are missing Bro.

Radhika: he is here around only, then how do I miss him

Sammy: but still he is here for one more day, then he has to go back to Delhi, right?

Radhika: ha

Sammy: so

Radhika with a smile: I am not going to win with you, but its not that

Sammy: so you are missed your land, because you were away form here for years, you really missed it, and now after a long time you are getting the opportunity to feel it again.

Radhika took a deep sigh and smiling at him , she said: Sammy, I know you won't leave me now with this questioning

Sammy: then tell me, what is it?

Radhika: nothing Sammy, I did not miss my land. I used to stand against the wind there, and tried hard to smell the season, and then it surely did brought some scent along with it, even though it was not of my life, I got used to it. I believed somewhere that scent has come from my land, it travelled all thru the world to reach to me and it brought along the mixed scent of the all those land. So I never issed the season of my land.

Sammy looked at Radhika as she was continuing in trance, looking at the horizon: ha, I used to stand near the window, to see the darkness of the atmosphere, I saw many twinkling stars and they all looked the same just like here, I used to do that, staring at those darkness with an empty mind, looking for nothing, and try to draw whatever comes to my mind, in that space of vaccum.

Then turning her face and looking at him with a smile she said: but I never thought of missing anything , I was fine, and I am fine now too.

Sammy: Bhabhi, you sound so illogical

Radhika: ha, I know, sometimes it is the madness of my mind, but stil somehwere deep I was like that, and I never missed my land, maybe in my snese illogically logical.

Sammy: then why you are standing away from everyone now

Radhika: Sammy

Sammy: I am listening

Radhika: ok baba, I give up, come let's join others.

Sammy: see, ye hui na bath.

They both walked back into the crowd.

Sammy: you know what bhabhi, I love to see my people together, it is this precious moment which I take with me, and that brings a smile to my heart.

Radhika: I know, and I can see that, and that brings smile to everyones heart

Sammy: bhabhi

Rahdika looked at him

Sammy: this is just between us ok, don't tell to anyone

Radhika controlling her smile: no need to tell anyone, everyone knows you by now.

Sammy: really bhabhi

Radhika realized that teasing tone: Sammy

Sammy: bhabhi

Radhika: you will never change

Sammy: why should I? even if the real tiger comes and stand in fornt of me, I will remain the same, never change

Suddenly Radhika: papa

Sammy jerking his head, skipping a heartbeat: where?

Radhika covered her mouth to control that loud laughter.

Sammy: Bhabhi, this is not fair

Radhika: sometimes it is

Sammy: ha bhabhi, one thing is true, more than Bro it is me who is missing you so much at work. You don't know anything , Bro is just fine , he is always behind something, whereas I am, very pathetic, especially if I need to get into papa's office. You don't know bhabhi, he always stare at me, then I doubt myself, is my tie is ok, or my shirt buttons are open, or I check the file that I am holding in my hand to check whether anyone can see the shaking. Why he has to look at me like that, did you ever felt like that?

Radhika: no Sammy, papa is so good, even Dev also had same issue, but I never, and papa is the most friendlist person at home.

Sammy: really!!!

Their talk went on, while Dev approached them

Dev: what you two are talking about.

Sammy: secret

Dev: what secret?

Sammy: Ha, poor bhabhi, she was missing you so much, and I was telling how cool you are at work

Dev's warning tone: Sammy

Sammy looking at Radhika: true bhabhi, I think more than him, I talk about you, this Bro always busy with projects and office wok, never see him free, or gloomy.

Dev: enough Sammy

Sammy: no , not enough, let me tell everything

Dev: Sammy

Suddenly he heard Lechu calling out: Sammmyyy

Sammy: Bro my call has come, aap bech gaya and then looking at smiling Radhika: now walk with your pathidev, and also whatever I said is all true ok, even if he say otherwise

Dev: Sammy

But by then Sammy ran away from there to lechu's side.

Dev looked at Radhika nd found her giggling

Dev with tightened forehead: what?

Radhika: what?

Dev: why there is so much to laugh now

Radhika: aap bhi na

Dev: what?

Radhika bringing a serious face: nothing, I am feeling hungry

Dev: what?

Radhika walked faster to the steaming pot.

Dev standing there looked at Sammy who was happily picking something from Lechu's plate and gulping it in. thought self :ye tho mere jaan ke peeche kyum pad gaye hei.. and he took a deep sigh

******

Thanks for the support. Next part : get ready to hold the baby in your hand, if you are still with me. Hope I am making sense with updates.. if not then I am sorry.

Take care

Loved your "travel log"--yes, we are all just travelers----and the smell of the homeland will never fade, wherever we are---I am glad you enjoyed the bananas and jackfruit (I did too---)😊...

And so is your Radhika, enjoying the smell of her Chandenpur--lost in her thoughts or resurfacing of the questions that were tucked away in a corner of her mind and now resurfacing again---..

Love Sammy and Lechu--they both are very lovable; Lechu getting responsible, brother-sister teasing, bhabhi-Sammy interaction --all made for light, fun moments---

I hope Dev is around when his princess comes to enjoy the smell of Chandenpur---
