Barkha left the dining room saying to go for rest in her room.All others started having their dinner.But Dev was least interested for .One because he has become used of having food served by Radhika and most because he did not want to have without her Radhika.So after eating 1 or 2 morsels,he also left saying he is not hungry and on insisting he said he will have himself if he feels having food.
Dev directly went to the terrace for having fresh air and sat on the swing.He got lost in the moments spent with radhika.
Meanwhile radhika was walking barefoot on the path of the temple.
"kanha main apne krishn kanhaiya ki raksha ke liye kuch bhi karne ko taiyaar hoon,bas unki har aane wale sankat se raksha karna,unhe kuch mat hone dena yahi vinti hai." praying only for her dev in mind she was moving on her way.
It was about 15 km distance she has travelled.She was feeling tired too now bcoz last night also she didn't slept for even a moment and day passed in preparations.On the path,she saw a temple and pandit of that temple was just ready to go to her home standing outside.
"pundit jee,yeh vighan harta mandir yahan se kitni door hai"radhika asked in a very polite tone.
"beta,jis mandir mein bhagwan ka niwas hai,woh har mandir hi vighan hata hain" pandit answered her.
"nahi,jo mandir vighan harta ke naam se jana jata hai,jahan agar patni apne pati ki raksha ke liye sachche man se prarthna karti hai aur jyot jagati hai "
"beta main nahi janta ki tum kis mandir ki baat kar rahi ho aur aage to kam se kam 10 km tak aisa koi mandir nahi hai" pandit replied .
"kya" radhika asked in a very shocked tone.
"beta tum udaas mat ho,tum chaho to isi mandir mein apni prarthna kar sakti ho aur bhagwan vighan harta hote hain ,jab tum sachche man se aayi ho,bhagwan ko sachche man se yaad karogi to bhagwan tumhari avashya sunenge,tumhare pati ki avashya raksha karenge." pandit said in an encouraging tone.
"ji pandit ji,dhanyawaad" saying she entered in the temple.After lighting the jyot and revolving around the temple 7 times,she came and stood in front of radha krishn idol.By closing her eyes,she firstly remembered her kanha and then prayed for Dev.While she was praying,some of the sindoor falls on her head from the plate indicating that kanha is always with her.She felt overwhelmed and forgot even that barkha's plan at that time.
Radhika after praying came out and touching the foot of pandit took his blessings.
"ji bahut bahut dhanyawaad" radhika said in a very thankfull tone.
"bhagwan tumhari har manokamna poorn(fullfill) karein " pandit blessed her .
Here dev was sitting on the swing waiting for radhika.
"abhi tak nahi aayi kya,kafi raat ho chuki hai" he started feeling worried now.
He came downstairs and went to see her in kitchen ,their room and did not find her.
"shayad barkha ke room mein ho" he thought and was going to see her in barkha's room.
In Barkha's room:
"mujhe to laga ek baar dev mujhse dekhne aayega ki main kaisa feel kar rahi hoon par nahi .Lagta hai ab mujhe hi koi plan banana hoga" thinking she stood from the bed and tried to make a plan and saw dev coming towars her room.She again went and sat on the bed ranting "aah aah" holding her head in her hands.
"kya hua barkha,jyaada tabiyat khrab lag rahi hai kya" dev asked in concerned tone.
"nahi,woh sar mein dard ho raha hai thoda,woh raat ko bhi nahi soyi na shayad isiliye"barkha replied making him guilty and trapping him.
"radhika hoti to shayad baam laga deti,ab raat ko doctor ko bhi nahi bula sakte hain,aisa karo tum aaram karo,neend aayegi to sar dard bhi chala jaayega"dev answered her feeling a little bit guilty now.
"dev kya tum please baam laga doge"
"main"
"agar tumhe koi aitraz na ho to"
"nahi nahi"He did not want to but at the same time couldn't say no too.
Dev asked for the baam and by taking out from the drawer ,he came towards her and opening it,he took some in his hand.
On the other side,radhika was walking on the road expecting any auto or taxi to come soon.
"main bahut khush hoon kanha ke aapne meri vinti sweekar kar li,ab mere krishn kanhaiya ko har chinta se mukt kar do aur voh ek achche rajpurohit achche "she was in the middle of her thoughts that she remembered barkha from the name of rajpurohit.Why she told a lie to me ,why she sent me for the mandir which is not present and that also at night.Last night too,she saw her so very close to dev.SHE WAS FEELING TIRED and very much uneasy at her thoughts.
She kept walking in her thoughts and was so distracted that she forgot to take any taxi but kept walking.
Dev was already worried for radhika and instantly felt uneasy in his heart and in uneasiness,the bottle of baam dropped from from his hand.He sst on floor to hold it but due to cylindrical shape,it rolled more and went more deep under bed from the hold of his hand.
"main apne room se doosri lekar aata hoon,yeh tum subah nikal lena"dev said and made his way out to his room.
there is a second part too with dev finding radhika on the way and then radev whole making barkha more jealous.i will post in few hours.
