Radhika went out and took her scooty. just then Nandu came "didiii Happy New Year"
Radhika:Happy New Year Nandu. Aaoge mere saath thodi der ke liye bandar ban jaayenge
Nandu:main bhi iss liye hi aaya tha.
At the same time Vishala came out wearing a gown upto knees.
Vishaka said "hi" to Radhika in turn nodded and said "happy new year di"
Nandu:"happy new year vishaka di"
Vishaka giving an ugly look to Nandu asked Radhika "Radhika why wil u bring all these labour people here..."
Rahika's smile faded and Nandu became serious.
Nandu seeing her dress asked "Vishaka di kya hua aapki kapde itni chota ho gaye naye kapde khareedne ke liye paise nahi hain kya"
Vishaka became more anger and said "u broot how dare u to talk abt me like that" and raised her hand to slap Nandu.
Nandu closed her eys and curled To Radhika, Vishaka was about to slap him but ion next minute her hand was stopped by Radhika. Vishaka looked at Radhika to say some thing but was stopped by seeing ehr serious face. At thet time Cisaka for first tie feared for radhika.
Radhika holding her hand said "aap ne mujhe daant de sakte hain, yaan kuch bhi bol sakte hain. Lekin bache par apna haath vuatay toh mai bardaash nahi karogi. Samjhi aap, dalat insaan ko mahaan nahi banayega, apni sanskaar insaan ko banayega. Please first learn to behav ur self. And please now go in change ur clothes and come out. I don't want to hear the question asked by Nandu from others too."
Vishaka:main jaise chahti hun vaise rahungi. Tu koun hain mujhe meri dress change karne ko kehne ke liyeee
Radhika:baat Dress ki nahi humaari sanskaar hi.Ye vrindavan hain Delhi nahi. Agar aisi dresses aapne yaha pehna toh, Sharma parivaar ki naam ko rukhsaan pahuchayega. Please ye mat bhulo ki samaj ke prathi aap iss Sharma parivaar ki doosri ebti Vishaka Sharma.
Listenign to the fuss out side Amba came out and seeing Vishaka and Radhika quarreling Amba asked them sternly "kya hua"
Vishaka:"Daadi ye radhika mujhe meri dress change karne ki order kar rahi hain"
Radhik:Ammaji aisa kuch nahi, vo toh vrindavan mein ghumne ke liya jaa rahi thi. Vrindavan mein aisa dress pehen ke ghumna acha nahi hain, iss liye main ne aisa bola tha.
AAmba:Vishaka jaakar apna dress change kar ke jaavo.
Vishaka:what's the heli is this. sab ke sab un pad country broots aakar mujhe pe adhikaar kar rahe hain
Amba:mind ur words Vishaka Yaha koi unpad nahi hain. Tu unpad kisko kehta ho mujhe main gurkul mein pada tha aur meri samay mein teri daadji ne mujhe issliye vivaah kiya ki mein padliki hun
Radhika:amba please chodiye aur vishaka di lease dress change karke jaayiye.
Vishaka:thik hain I will deal with chachaji in the evening
Amba:haan haan teri chacha ke saamne mein aisi baat laaya toh vohi tujhe sabat sikhayega.
Vishaka:heey buddi tum mujhse mat bolo. Main jaa rahi hun
As Vishaka went in Amba asked radhika"kya hua"
Radhika narrated the whole incident and amba said "Radhika tum ne jo bhi kiya sahi kiya, waise nandu anda nahi aaoge"
Nandu:nahi ammaji hume ghat pe jaana hain. didi aa
Nandu dragged radhika and Radhika started scooty and they bothe went to ghat.
As they wnet to ghat Nandu jumped down from scooty and went to play with water. Radhika too joined him and they started to play with water.
Dev after leaving mrinalini at her friends house feelign bored came to ghat to take some pictures. As he came to ghat he remembered words of radhika saying...'New year ke din yamuna ki ghat par baitke chand ko dekhne samay ek side chand hogi aure doosri side mein baarish bhi padti hain exactly at 12'0 clock. I like to welcome new year seeing that'
Dev had a smile on his lips and thought to himself "kaash vo ab yaha hogi"
Radhika was playing with Nandu splashing water on him when her duppatta got out of ehr neck and was blown away by wind.
Radhika and nandu stopped playing and Radhika looked at side the duppatta was flowing. It slowly landed on the back of a person and the person was also startled as duppatta flown on to him.
Dev who was lost in his thoughs of Radhika startled as he felt some cloth on his back.
Radhika looked at her self and she was wet because of the playing and henace she hided behind a tree and sent Nandu to go to him to bring her duppatta.
Nandu went to the person and said "excuse me."
Dev looked at him holding duppatta in his hand asked "kya hain"
Nandu:vo meri didi ka duppatta hain. please vusse de dijiye, vo toh hava se vudkar apke paas aaya hain. mere ebhen ne aapse sorry ekhne ke liye kaha tha,
Dev smiled st him and giving duppataa to him said "tera naam kya hain"
Nandu:mera naam Nandu hain.
Dev:tum bahut pyaara lag raha ho. ye choclate lo.
Nandu:thanks bhaiyya, tum bhi bahut acha ho. bye
Nandu went to Radhika and gave her duppatta. Radhika setted her duppatta and came out with Nandu.Dev looked at that side and didn't recognise as she was turning back. Dev went away from theree.
Radhika and Nandu after playing for some more time went for roaming and at the temple steps caught a old pandit. That old man saaing Radhika called her "beti"
Radhika turned to him and seeing some type of shine in him asked "kya pandit ji"
Pandit:main ek jyotish hun, aur aaj kyun nahi tumhe dekhta hi tere liya boln ka man kar raha tha.
Radhika:dhanya waad pandit ji, lekin mujhe is par vishwaas nahi hain
Pandit:lekin beti, main ye vrindavan iss liye aaya ki mera antim din kanha ke sthaan me bita le. ye samjo ki meri aakhri chahat hain aur please ek baar baitho.
Radhika sat infront of him and he asked Radhika to stretch her hand. As she stretched ehr hand jyotihs took a look over it and said "tere paas dan doulat sab kuch hain, lekin teri ek dosti ka fiquar hain tujhe. Tum vus dost ke liye intezaar kar rahe ho. lekin vo thik nahi hain, pehle vuse thik kardo aur vuske baad tujhe ek sacha pata chalega. shayad tum vusse door jaane ke liye kosish karungi. lekin kanha kabhi aisa nahi karne doga. Kanha ne apni Radhika ke liye kishankannayya banakar aaya tha"
Radhika opened her mouth wide as she felt a shcok with what jyotish said and thought to her self 'jo maa ko bhi nahi pata dosti, ye aadmi ko kaise pata chala'
That man as if reading ehr thoughts said ' tere haath mein tera dosti kya, sab kuch dikha raha tha'
Radhika felt silent and was about to leave doing hima pranam when he said ' beti aj jis se tum maamle mein rakhogi yaa damki dgei, vo tere zindagi ke liye bahut khatarnak banega."
Radhika turned to him and said "pandit ji mujhe mera koi fiquar nahi hain, lekin jab kisi insaan galat karte ho main dekhte nahi reh sakti hun."
That old man smiled and he left over into the woods. Radhika felt an unusual chill running to her spins, and rubing off her thought walked into mandir along with Nandu.
