Ehsaas Kuch Naya Sa (Part-4)

Sukant and Akshay were roaming in the garden with the children of palace...suddenly a gusty cold air flowed over them...the air left a paper on Sukant's face...Sukant being very annoyed removed the paper from face and was about to throw it and then he had a glance at the portrait on the paper and he stopped like a statue...what a beautiful girl is she...is she really exists on this earth or its only a dream..or imagination of the painter...for some moments Sukant became lost in that painting...Akshay was very surprised by watching Sukant's behaviour...he called Sukant..but Sukant didn't response...then Akshay shaked him and Sukant regained his consciousness at last..

Akshay : Sukant kya ho gaya hai tumhe??..kahan kho gaye the??

Sukant : nahi Akshay hum to bas ye chitra dekh rahe the...baht sundar hai na??

Akshay looked at the portrait of Subhadra..no doubt the painting is beautiful..but Akshay failed to find anything there which made Sukant speechless...

Akshay : han sundar to hai...parantu tum kis soch mein par gaye..kya tum is kanya ko jante ho?..

Sukant (in a dreamy voice) : yugo yugo se...

Akshay : kya?? main kuch samjha nahi...

Sukant : tu samjhega bhi nahi...

Akshay : acha jane do...parantu hume aisa pratit hote hai k ye kanya isi rajmahal ki rehnewali hai...kadachit ye swayam rajkumari hi na ho??

Sukant (became confused and a little bit disappointed) : nahi hume aisa nahi lagta..

Akshay : chalo hume kya farq padta hai k ye kaun hai??hum is chitra ko mahal ki bacho ko sanp dete hai vo avasya jante honge ye kaun hai aur vo unhe wapas bhi de denge...

Sukant : nahi  bache ye chitra ko nast kar sakte hai...

Akshay : acha thik hai fir tum ise apne paas hi rakho..hum baad mein Digvijay se puch lenge...abhi chalo hume apne baki mitro ko bhi dhundna hai...sandhyakalin  ke utsav mein yogdaan bhi to dena hai...

Sukant : han chalo..
(he again looked at the painting and thinks..)
humara hriday keh raha hai ke ye rajkumari ki chitra nahi hai..parantu jinki hai vo avasya ye mahal mein hi rehti hai...aur na jane hume aisa kyu lagte hai ke hum unse baht i shighra milenge...

     Chandu being unmindful was not aware about where he has reached...and he with much indifference he took the paper in his hand..and the sudden ringing scream just shaked him to gain his consciousness  and out of this unexpected shock the paper slipped from his hand...and before he could turn back to discover the source of such ringing jingles he found himself lying on the floor with some weight on him...and the weight was of any living creature...and he shivered by realizing the living creature is a girl...because his face had been covered with her long silky hair from which an amazing smell was being bended with his breath..a thrilling sense stole his consciousness for a while..then he tried to wipe out the hair from his face..and he shivered again when his hand got a touch of those soft silky locks...
      Dhara became very much embarrassed by falling down and then too on a stranger boy...and without spending any moment she got up and  managed to restrain herself then found her hair has covered the face of that boy...and he is trying to remove those...watching him touching her hair she got tempered..her anger touched her highest peak...and then she angrily shooked her head in order to manage her hair...and then an innocent looking face of dark complexion was visible to her...but being angry on him she stared with her full glance as if she wanted to turn him into ashes...
      As soon as the obstacle of the hairs removed from his face Chandu could see a face gazing towards him...a face with the colour of moonlight..a face which is not describable with words...for a second chandu was confused does the face belong to a girl of this world or of some fairy of fairyland from childhood stories...but those fairies don't gaze with such fiery eyes...and that made him sure that she belongs to real world...
      the ringing voice jingled again...

Dhara : kaun ho tum??aur rajkumari k mahal mein praves karne k duhsahas kaise kiya???

but Chandu remained speechless...he found no words to speak...and he kept staring at Dhara silently with his shining eyes...
    
getting no answer Dhara's angers burst out with scream

Dhara : uttar kyu nhi de rahe ho??bol nhi sakte ya hamari vasha samajhne mein asamarth ho...ya fir koi van se aya hua vanvasi ho???

vanvasi...as soon as the word reached to ears..Chandu regained his consciousness...and at last he became able to give her answer..

Chandu : main chahe jo bhi hun...parantu tum kya ho kanya ya tufan ??

Dhara : tumhara sahas kaise hua mujhse aise baat karne k??jante ho main kaun hun??

Chandu : han ek baht bada tufani jhanjha...jiske samaksh mein jo ai uska antim samay a jaye...

Dhara : tumhara duhsahas dekhk main bismit ho rahi hun...bina anumati liye tum rajkumari k mahal mein pravesh krte ho..itne parisram se banaye hue chitra ko hawa mein kho dete ho.aur uparse hamare sath uche sur mein baat krte ho...kya tumhe ye gyat nhi k ek kanya se kaise vakyalap kiya jaye...tum jaise vanvasi o ko nagar mein pravesh karne k koi adhikar nhi hai...

Chandu : mujhse koi prasna puchne se purb apne dwarpalo se pucho ke unhone hume yahan praves krte hue kyu nahi dekha??prasna apne rajkumari se pucho k unke mahal mein rang aise bikhre hue q rehte hai ke is pr pisal kr kisi k bhi asthiya tut jaye..apne chitra ko sambhal ke nhi rakh sakti aur dosh dusro pr ate hai??..aur prasna to mujhe krna hai maharaj se ke vo apne mahal mein aise  tufani swavab ki dasiya q rakhte hai...jo kisike liye bhi vipta k karan ban sakte hai

Dhara :(became extremely angry and her face turned reddish...and her voice chocked with anger) : tum tumne kya kaha??..vanvasi...tumhe tumhare uddandta k parinam avasya milenge...
and she shouted...pratiharin...pratiharin...

and two irani women dressed as warrior came by running...they are from a irani clan...in ancient and medieval ages as men were not allowed to enter into andarmahals ...so the brave and powerful women used to protect andarmahals..and most of them were from central asian clans...as they were physically fit...

pratiharins : (with bending head) adesh rajkumari.

Dhara : bandi banalo is uddand vanvasi ko...

Pratiharin seemed confused...and stayed aback...

Dhara shouted : kis baat ke pratiksha kr rahe ho..adesh ka sheeghra palan ho...

Pratiharin : shama rajkumari...parantu ap kiske baat kr rahe hai hume samajh mein nhi aya...

Dhara : kya arth hai tumhara??kya tum apne dristishakti kho chuke ho ya fir ye nhi jante ke rajkumari k adesh na manne ka parinam kya hote hai...abhi bandi banao is anupraveskari ko...

Pratiharin : hum satya keh rahe hai rajkumari hume yahan koi dikhai nhi de raha hai...

Dhara turned back and became shocked...there is no trace of that boy anywhere...as if he has been disappeared in air...
