It is 10 O'clock Part-6

                                  Krishna called Priya and they agreed to meet at a ccd. Krishna got early there and was waiting for Priya. And there she was. She entered the ccd and Krishna felt that she brought some sort of calmness with her. She was looking so pretty that every eye in ccd got stoned for a while. She brought an aroma of positive energy with her that there was no place for negative energy. Krishna was feeling good , but Priya found immediately that something is terribly wrong as she had been gifted with the power of reading faces. She took his hand in her hand warmly and asked what happened Krishna. Krishna could not control himself and his eyes turned watery. He told her everything about Aashka and when he finished Priya wanted to cry a loud but she had to control because she was there to help him not to cry with him. For a moment she could not find words how to console him. She was feeling pity for Aashka that she was denying this kind of holy love. Because everybody is not lucky enough to find such a love.

                                  For a thin moment she also felt that if Krishna would have loved her so much , she could have fought with the entire world to be with him. But that was just a thought , immediately she started to find answers to this scenario. She told him that Krishna I was not also able to understand why Aashka was doing this. But if you love her truly , you have to wait for a while. May be she was going through something and was not able to talk to you about that and that's why she was not talking to you. Krishna when you love somebody , you have to trust her completely. I know that it is hard for everybody , that for a moment we believe that she or he has cheated us. But please don't let anger burn the true feelings of love. You know when you love someone and that someone doesn't love you back means that he/she is so possessive of your love that he/she does not even give it back to you. Priya's words were very soothing and somewhat healing too. Krishna could not say anything so he just took her hand into his hands and every tissue in his eye was saying thank you and on the other side Priya's eyes were glowing with some satisfaction that she could do something for her best friend. And finally she said that Krishna love is like a flower which only smells if it is connected . If you remove it it will stink after a while and you have to throw it away. So please don't remove the flower of love from your heart.

                                  Krishna went back to his home. He was feeling little better and he could sleep that night. And again the same dream moved further ahead. When he finished the song, she fell asleep. She was a real sleeping beauty. There was innocence like a baby on her face. Krishna was seeping her beauty with his eyes and my god it was like the cradle of life which was healing every bruise on his heart. He lifted her like a feather and laid her down on her bed. When he put her down , he could see a small smile in the corners of her lips. The scene was so breathtaking that every sound of the jungle got silenced and not even a leaf was moving as if the air was stone footed. Krishna's body needed to sleep but the body parts  were not allowing. The hands wanted to touch her. The legs wanted to rush towards her. And there was a war between the pupils and the eye bids. And though the pupils were less in number , they were winning and not allowing the eye lids to close because they did not want to miss a single picture of her beauty. Krishna started to whisper a song for her.

When I close my eyes
 my visions dont die
I can still see her face
 as I never told a lie.


When I close my eyes
 my dreams will start
I can still live with her
 though she is very apart.

When I close my eyes
 my worries begin to rise
I can still pray for her 
 as she is only mine.

When I close my eyes
 my love doesn't fade
I can still love her self
 though she can make me hate.

When I close my eyes
 her pain is no more
I can still feel her pain
 as we are now only one.

                     Krishna wanted to see her in the early morning light so he was still there near her bed. But he also could not fight the fatigue and slept. So what will happen in the next morning ? Who wins reality or dreams ?

It is 10 O'clock Part-5

                            Next morning when Krishna woke up , he took his phone to look for her message and the message was there saying that come to my home - Aashka. He was excited to read the message and reached at her place at 9 o'clock. She was there in the main room but her face was not hers. She was looking dull and she was not smiling either. She gave him something and said please read it. With shaking hands Krishna opened the envelope and he was so tensed that the letters were dancing and he could not read properly. But as he read the letter his feelings took the form of water and came out of his eyes and he passionately hugged her. And my god she was laughing and teasing him. The envelope contained two tickets for the Kerala- Tree House tour. He said aashu , you had given me almost a heart attack you know. She caught her ears and said sorry. And all the pain,mental pressure everything wiped out and Krishna was as usual feeling very lucky.

                            They had to reach their by plane and then they had to travel 50 kms jeep from that place. When they reached there it was almost dusk. The orange colored soldiers won the battle and now every tree was looking orange colored. Aashka was very happy to see the scene and all of a sudden the orange colored soldiers were defeated by the yellow ones because they did not want to miss the chance of seeing Aashka. The Sun may be changing its pattern to see the crowning jewel of beauty in the form of Aashka. She saw a little storm ahead and asked Krishna about that. He said its jungle this was normal there. But that was not the condition there was a battle going on among the sand,the wind and roaming leaves just to touch the goddess Venus itself. But none of them was successful because the window was closed by Krishna and there was a huge sigh but no one could listen that. They reached the center. There was a hanging bridge and they had to cross the bridge to reach to their tree houses. Aashka was afraid of walking on the bridge so she looked towards Krishna. His eyes were saying trust me dear and her eyes felt safe and she could walk on it properly. At the end of the bridge there was a ladder. Aashka said no I could not climb that. Krishna said aashu dont be afraid of climbing and he lifted her on his back and climbed up the tree house.

                            She asked didn't feel my weight. Krishna said sweety you were lighter than a feather so how could I feel your weight. She smiled and Krishna's fatigue was evaporated like the thin layer of water. Aashka was stunned to see the beauty of the tree house. It was partitioned into two rooms but a common room. Krishna could read the question in her eyes why two rooms so he answered aashu we are not still married. She thought that she made the only important decision of her life. She was feeling very proud. The common room had a sitting arrangement with two chairs and a table. It was already dark so the beauty of the jungle was not visible. They were very hungry so they had the dinner early. Aashka was feeling sleepy so they both went to sleep. But Aashka could not sleep because of the sounds of animal in the jungle. So she whispered Krish and immediately he answered yes aashu what happened ? She said you didn't sleep yet. He said how could I dear , I could not sleep until you sleep and I could hear you changing sides. She came to his room and with lots of love she pampered his head. There was a branch on which you could sit outside the tree house. So they both decided to sit there for a while. There was the empire of darkness outside. There was a full moon night so light was very bright. The Moon was staring her , so her face was lighten up by its light. It was hard to decide that Aashka's face was more beautiful or the Moon. Finally the Moon lost the battle and hid himself behind the clouds so that she could not also glow. But the rays of the Moon were not ready to leave her face , so still her face was glowing. Aashka said please sing that song you had written for me so that I could sleep. He said ok and started to sing.

i breathe just to see you my love
i eat just to hold you tight my love
i see just to see you smile
i hear just to hear your voice
i walk just to walk with you
i talk just to talk to you
i sleep just to see ur dreams
i dream just to be with you
i laugh just to make you laugh

i breathe just to see you my love
i breathe just to see you my love

i feel just to feel your touch
i sing just for you baby
i rest just to give you rest
i drink just to see you wet
i like just to be like you
i fell just to lift you up
i swim just to pull you out
i lie not to make you cry
i cry but can't tell you why

i breathe just to see you love
i breathe just to see you love

i want just you my love
i dance just to dance with you
i smile just to make you smile
i care just for you my love
i help just to do your work

i work just to make you work
i share just with you love
i want just you my love

when i die i will hold you tight

                       As he finished the song something happened and Aashka fell down from the branch and Krishna screamed like hell and his eyes were opened. It was a dream , she was not with him. The cruelty is that few days back reality was better than dreams for Krishna but now the dreams were better for him than reality. It was then 7 o'clock. He was so depressed and confused that he could not understand what to do. So he decided to meet his best friend Priya Khatri. She is a very sweet girl. She looks so innocent that one can forget every pain by just looking at her face. She is a friend of friends. Once she is your friend she will never back out in any condition. She will help you at any cost and will not think for a sec to cross any boundary for that. So let us see what happens when Krishna meets Priya.

 

 

It is 10 O'clock Part-4

                    And after finishing the dinner Krishna and Aashka were returning home. Aashka was feeling so great that she could not believe that it was actually happened. She was still in her dreams. But Krishna was in real life as his real life was better than dreams. Krishna was the luckiest man on the Earth as he got his dream girl. He was looking at Aashka. She said that weren't u tired watching me since last three hours you had been watching me. So he replied aashu i believe that every heart had a missing portion. You are my that missing portion so how could I stop looking at you as your heart fits into mine. She was touched by this and pampered his chicks. Krishna was feeling like as if he were midas touched. He was still staring her. The time itself did not want to end this moment.

                    But the time has come to depart because they were now at Aashka's home. Krishna hold her hands against his chicks and said please don't go. Aashka's eyes turned watery but she said I also did not want to go but I had to. Please don't spoil your mood. He smiled but painfully and said ok. She stepped outside the car and started to walk towards her house. It was the most painful and longest walk. She was taking every step very forcefully because they were the two opposite poles of magnet which were attracted towards each other. Krishna was staring her back but he could see the pain her heart feeling and like every muscle of her heart was trying to push her back towards him so that they can feel the most beautiful feeling in the world called love. Krishna felt little droplets of water he looked up and saw that clouds were crying a bit to see this departing scene. Aashka turned around to say good night. Krishna felt something wrong his heart was getting crushed by the pain and he just ran away like a bullet and hugged Aashka so tightly that she could not breathe for few seconds. She hold her face very softly and said please let me go so that I could be with you tomorrow.

                         Krishna got a hold on himself and he left her house and went to his house. Next day they met and then they used to meet each and every day. The sole existence of their personalities was doubtful even they were born with that or not ? there was again a question. They had now a single soul living in two different bodies. Krishna could read her eyes and face that sometimes they did not need to talk via language they could talk in their sign language. Then one fine morning Krishna did not get the good morning message from his soul mate. He got surprised so he did the message but still there was no message. He started to worry about her and called her thrice but there was no reply. Then in the noon the message arrived only saying hi. He was bit angry with her but he did not tell her anything as he loved her too much. Then  that night also she did not talk to him. Krishna was sleepless. His beloved wife was behaving very strangely.

                           He decided to ask her in the morning and tried to sleep but he could not sleep. A very dangerous thought was killing his brain regarding their relation. Because for Krishna she was the only reason to live, the only passion to be passionate about , the only way of living, the only way to happiness , the only  ray of hope, the only sight of his vision, the only rhythm of his life, the only light for his dark and lonely life, the only thought he wanted to chew again and again and again. But he was feeling very awkward. May be their lives were taking a very steep turn. May be not...

It is 10 O'clock Part-3

Then Krishna started the car and he was driving the car. But he was not able to concentrate on the road because  his next sit was occupied by the human form of his every desire , his happiness , his utmost existence , his lifeline.
Aashka was looking so marvelous that the trees alongside the road were trying to bend as much as possible just to have a glimpse of her beauty. It was not very windy night but still Aashka had to adjust her hair as if the air also wanted to participate in the race and just covering her hair so that others could not see it. And my god the way she took her hair back of her ear that scene was so cute that it was hard to describe in the words.

                       Then after a while they entered in a riverside hotel. He had booked a window side table. As Aashka entered the hotel every man in that room was jealous of Krishna. But Krishna could not see that as his eyes were meant to see only his Aashka. Every fork was hold still , every mouth was half opened , every eye was there on her face and every waiter wanted to serve this couple. They settled down at their booked table and according to Krishna's arrangement Aashka's favorite starter was served. It was a sizzler and it was very hot so it was placed within a wooden barrier. Then before she started to eat Krishna took her soft hand into his hand and said for the rest of my life I would be this wooden barrier for you as this wooden barrier does not allow the heat to pass through I would not allow any trouble to pass through me and reach you. This was my first promise as there are seven promises in a marriage.

                       Then he ordered tomato soup with cream because she likes that way. Then again he said while looking into her deep sparking eyes that I would be like this cream which adds a little extra to the soup , so I will always try to add little extra to our lives. This is my second promise.Aashka was enjoying because eating was her hobby. Then the first sabji arrives and it was Paneer Tikka masala, especially the gravy was Aashka's favourite. Krishna said that as this gravy mixes with every sabji I wiould dissolve myself in you and I surrender my existence to you to make our life happy and spicy like this paneer tikka masala. I will adapt every angle of your life so that we can be a single soul living in two different bodies. This was my third promise.

                        Aashka just loved khoya kaju so she was expecting the same dish. But she was curious about what would Krishna say about that. And he said only spice is harmful, only sweet is also so I will try to add a little sweetness when it is spice and a little spice when it is sweet. This was the fourth promise. Aashka was eating a bit faster because she was anxious to know the remaining three promises. But the fifth promise was not a dish it was buttermilk. He lifted the glass and said aashu you don't need this buttermilk while eating. But if it is there it helps us to digest the food. In the same way I would be there in each and every turn & twist of our lives to help may be you would not require it but I would be happy to do that because I think this will create our life as smooth as a flower bed. This was my fifth promise.

                        Aashka was surprised because they had finished the lunch and finger bowls were there. But then Krishna said as this lemon and hot water clean our hands I would love to do the same thing. As every coin has two sides , everybody borns with virtues and vices. I will accept you with every vice and try to remove the vice and if I can't do that I will cover that vice in such a way that no finger can be pointed out to you. That was my sixth promise. Aashka's eyes were watery because now she knew the actual love of Krishna. And she was waiting for the last promise. As only dessert was remaining as per her thought it was the vanila ice cream with lots of chocolate. But this time Krishna said upto now I said that i would be like this but now for the last promise I would say that the ice cream looses its taste and shape under different circumstances. But I will never change under any circumstance because it is not I anymore I had been We and you would find me next to you in any trouble of our life.

                        Then he bent on his knees and held her hand between his two hands and said. My love you are the only song my ears want to listen. you are the only scene my eyes want to watch. You are the only scent my nose wants to smell. You are the only touch my skin will like to feel.You are the act my hand want to do. You are the only dream my brain wants to dream every single night of my life and  You are the only one with whom I want to walk the path of my life.

                    

Hunger the greatest enemy

There was a village named Ratanpur. It was a very remote place in Gujarat. In that village most of the villagers are poor. In that village there was a family of 8 people. The parents and 6 children. The family was extremely poor. The father  was working as a servant in a rich man’s farm. He was not earning much so he hardly could feed his children properly. His wife earned some money by working in others houses. But still the wheel of poverty was turning so fast that they were not able to cop up with it. If they get something to eat in the morning , they had to worry about the evening.

                In such a scenario, one day the father was bitten by a snake while working in the farm. And he died on the spot. That was the last nail in the coffin. The mother was so shocked that she was almost dead. So other villagers took care of the children and the children could have something to eat then. But as 7 days passed the villagers stopped sending food to the kids. The wheel of poverty was now at the top speed. The family members did not get food even a single time of the day. The mother started to work even more now but she could not do much.

                So the eldest son started to work in place of his father. The eldest son was only 17 years old. But he had to work very hard even to gather enough money which could buy food for his brothers and sisters. His childhood was ruined by the dragon of poverty. All the children were having only bones and no muscles because of improper food supply. Instead of milk the mother sometimes fed the children with the a special milk. The milk is made up of the flour dissolved in water. The kids were not able to justify the reality of the condition and trying to survive their fate.

               But the destiny has written something else for them. As because of the heavy work the eldest son was ill. He was not able to go to work. The poor mother had a very serious question to answer : whether she buy food for her kids or she buy medicines for her sick son. This question was an acid test for a mother because only motherhood doest differentiate among the children. But this mother had to take a decision and she took. She bought food for her remaining kids. The son was about to die and mother was helplessly watching him. At that time the youngest son came there and asked his mother that my brother was going to die ? It is good if he dies ? She said no and asked why ? Because he was so young that he could not understand what is death ? Mother was curious to know the answer. The son replied if my brother dies, we will get enough and good food to eat at least for seven days. The mother got frozen and so do I ?

              Because this is a serious question for all of us. We waste the food in many ways and the largest waste is during functions.  We don’t have right to do that because in a case when a younger brother is praying the God for his elder brother’s death just to get enough food for seven days and in a function we take a full dish and  then instead of eating we throw away food. So please don’t waste food. Please think of that little child before wasting even a single bite.
