You will always be in my heart...OS updtd pg 6 - Page 4

The wind was blowing badly while she was finding it difficult to held on herself as well as safeguard bird together...

It was all an havoc in mahal.. Its been an hour that the princess went missing but still there was no information about her or rather there was no way to move out and search..With the weather in its ugly condition nothing could have been done. King and Queen was enough worried and the first and foremost fingers were raised on Nakshatra who was the last to meet Damyanti prior to her gone missing...

Nakshatra iam asking you the last time- what was your conversation with Princess...Senapati asked gritting his teeth all angrily...

Senapati ji its true I was the one who last went to meet her but she indeed said nothing to me. Infact she was just enjoying the cold weather...nakshatra replied with fear.

Did she said you anything else...Mahamandri interrupted...

Nothing much but then she did said about doing sword practise in rain to which I disapproved and returned...

Mahamandri and Senapati gave each other a helpless look while Nakshatra stood not knowing what to be done...

The disastrous look of mother nature horrified Damyanti for the first time ever and she stared at sky with a bit of fear and tension... The water level of river was raising tremendously as though a sign of flood

Along with the fear of weather another important fact caught her brain...She do realise that its been a long time that she went missing..Back at mahal all are surely gonna get panic. The consequence of her foolish act of running like this is surely gonne be trialled by King and Queen but then still she prayed for some1 from mahal to come and take her as the weather is worsening each passing moment and each passing time at river side is not less than inviting death...

Love make a man blind and that was what happening to him..All the moment his eyes were just on her which then failed to notice the change in weather...He even forgot the very reason for his arrival to the river side...Her face, those lively eyes, shivering body, skinny gagra it was all that he could sense. The three beauty spots on her chin gave the effect of a normal beautiful village girl.. Her pretty dimples, small yet beautiful eyes, chiseled features all was a drug to him. All the moment he imagined of a perfect future with the beauty in his front...Even the water drops falling over failed to saccade his eyes... he was all drowned in the beauty ri8 in his front... Now all what he wanted was to draw her attention at the same time not letting her know that he was witnessing her antiques since long...

His hands travelled down to his kurta from where he took his flute out slowly...Giving a salute to his game plan he started to play it slowly... His best friend's words echoed in his mind... none could get over his music...

So do you ...he whispered with a smile

But unfortunately the nature was all ready to spoil the beautiful moment that he had put an hold to...In a split of second it all happened...Without giving Damyanti a time to react to the music or stranger guy ,The wind pinned her to the rock while her head was forced back with a sudden thunder...

Ahhh she winced in pain... while her hands almost let go the bird... But then his legs and hands worked on time to reach there where it was a necessity,... Placing the bird safely at a small gap within the rocky surface..He held on her weak shivering body in his strong arms...

Just then he was about to move that he recognised they were flooded with water...The water has risen to his knees and he couldn't even see the path..With the women who taught her the meaning of love an hour ago, in his arms, his legs moved not knowing where to move on..Water was dripping at her face while her eyes was shut...The cloth that he tied across her head helped a bit to hold back fresh blood from oozing out more...But then he was all tensed fearing and went on searching for a temporary hide out.

Walking slowly yet rashly he finally reached a higher ground ...An old strong oak tree with giant hands welcomed them all heartedly to its lap... He placed her there all slowly while she continued shivering and whispering for help...

Her small moans pinched his heart and her shivering body invited him. But then using some1's weak state was never in his Policy... He sat close to her rubbing her hands and legs...Time flew and it was had started to grew darker...The rain god seems to have started showing mercy and the intensity of rain was lessened..The surroundings were still flooded but then in the time being he can easily make up to his hut. But then still the beauty remained calm quiet and unconscious.

He didn't knew what to do and how to make it up. In between her unconscious moans maa was all that he could capture..Now who is she ...He didn't knew... He felt all helpless while he just stared at her merely ...The very next moment he gave a tight slap to himself...

Oh god the rain has stopped and your girl needs medical attention..Take her to Vaidya man..His inner sense shouted...Taking off his shirt he covered her body so as to give extra warmth and slowly moved to the village...

The path was water locked but still he managed to reach village vaidya, Ramaiyya's hut . He was very well known for his capability in healing diseases...

Placing her fragile body softly at bench in front he ran in to the unlocked hut to call vaidya..

Vaidya ji please rush a girl needs your sudden attention. She was first of all drenched by heavy rain and additionally got her head hit on a rock ..I have tied cloth on her wound but then she is still unconscious..Please hurry vaidya ji...he completed all of a sudden surprising vaidya.

Ramaiyya of old 60's who was enjoying warmth of fire gave up an irked expression to the man who became a unwelcomed guest... But being bound by his duties he slowly pulled himself up and moved with the young man to check about the girl he was talking about... Hmmm men are always men desperate for his women's health and love...he whispered to himself seeing the young man's panic..

How do u know her young man ramaiyya asked all shockingly...From where did u get her...What have u done...

He was all panicked...i don't know her Vaidya ji ..I just saw her at river side today morning and then all those happen ...I haven't done anything..But then why r u asking all these..Please treat her fast..see she is shivering like hell..she needs attention...

Take her in to the hut...ramaiyya commanded and he obediently did it all worried.

Now leave...ramaiyya ordered looking sternly to the guy...

But she needs care...

She will get her meditation boy But then u needs protection ramaiyya's sound echoed...She is not the one whom you think...If any1 comes to know that you touched her then my son no one in this world can protect you..so just go now and this girl is safe here.. I shall take her back to the place where she belongs... ramaiyya finished waiting for the guest to leave

He was adamant and decided to stay back but Ramaiyya who was feared and cared for the guy stood on stand that he won't treat the girl until he leaves... Finally with a heart of pain the young man left the place leaving his heart with the unknown lady of his.

Reaching back his hut , fever and weakness welcomed him...After 2 days of semiconscious weak state he woke up and rushed to hear the whereabouts of the girl but then all that he could see was Vaidyasala being closed...

After a lot of try he finally met ramaiyya... well son me being in my 60s was welcomed by 10 beats on my back, Now if they ever come to know about you being the one who brought her to me then none in the world will be able to save you..So for now its better u never see or know of that girl...Let her remain a sweet memory of u... ramaiyya finished only to see a painful expression in him...

Some treasures are never meant for normal men my dear so forget it...ramaiyya patted him and left slowly hanging to the wooden stretchers.

He wished to stop ramaiyya that day but then he knew how adamant ramaiyya was...

******************************************************

Recollecting the most beautiful day of his life he looked at his palm from which Princess Damyanti snatched the Flute...

Vidhu came and patted his shoulders ...
