Vishnupriya

I am Your Sakha and You are my Sakhi

"This Krishn has took everybody under his maya!" Radha says making her sakhi's agree. In the past few days krishna had become the favorite of the Barsana ladies.

"We can't let let our maiya, kaki and other sakhi fall for this Krishn's maya. We have to save them somehow." Radha says making them agree. "We should come up with a plan as soon as possible." Lalita says. "What should we do?" Vishakha asks. 

"First of all lets find out all his plans so that we can prepare a counter beforehand." Tungavidhya says. "You are absolutely right sakhi! But how to do that?" Sudevi asks. "That krishna isn't easy. if we ask him directly he will never tell us." Champaklata says. "He always manages to manipulate us with his sweet words somehow. It won't be easy." Indulekha says. "Not only our sakhis and maiyas he even manages to manipulates the poor animals by his maya." Rangadevi says. 

"Then how about befriending him?" Vishnupriya asks. "Here we are planning to overthrow him and you are planning to befriend him?" Chitra asks. "No, sakhi Vishnupriya is correct. We should try to befriend him." Vishakha says.

"No way! That krishna is pulling you two in his maya as well.... wait!" radha says gaining all the attention. "How about we try to befriend him and gain his trust? In that way he will spill all his plans to us and we can make a counter." radha says. "But isn't that wrong?" Vishakha asks. "We are just saving our family from that dusht's maya. It isn't wrong." Radha says.

"If you say so... but who will go and befriend him?" Vishakha asks. "How about sakhi Vishnupriya? Because if we or sakhi Radha go then it might be suspicious as we have been targeting him but if Sakhi Vishnupriya goes then he will accept her as he will think she is naive being younger than him." Chitra says.

"Yes! Choti will you go?" radha says. "If you say so didi but..." Vishnupriya says. "But?" Radha asks. "What if he really befriends me with his maya?" Vishnupriya asks. "We won't let that happen to our sakhi. Be carefree!" lalita says.

"Krishn? Is that you?" Vishnupriya asks as a stone missed her pot. "Come out krishn! I won't do anything! If you keep hiding then you will just anger me." Vishnupriya says and Krishna comes out of his hiding spot.

"Why are you so after my pots? What have I done to you?" Vishnupriya asks. "Nothing." Krishna answers simply. "Then why are always troubling me and my sakhis?" Vishnupriya asks. "Because it is fun." Krishna says.

"Fun? How is that fun? Didn't yashodha kaki teach you anything? Do you know how hard it is to walk under the hot sun till Yamuna and fill these many pots and head back home while balancing them on your head?" Vishnupriya asks clearly annoyed.

"Nope." krishna answers making Vishnupriya sigh. "Why am I even explaining this to you?" Vishnupriya says and continue walking back home. 

"Why is he following me? What does he want to do?" Vishnupriya asks herself mentally as Krishna was following her with hands behind his back and looking at the flowers. "Does he need something from me or plan on breaking my pots again?" Vishnupriya thinks.

"I not planning on any of those." Krishna says startling Vishnupriya. "How did you know what I was thinking?" Vishnupriya asks. "Your thoughts were way too loud." Krishna says. "How can thoughts be loud? They aren't verbal." Vishnupriya says. "He truly is mayavi." she thinks and Krishna just chuckles.

"Now did he hear this as well?" Vishnupriya asks herself. "Like I said your thoughts are way too loud." Krishna says. "You know I like makhan alot!" Krishna says after a moment of silence. "I know. Its crystal clear." Vishnupriya answers and krishna continues his blabbering which Vishnupriya listens patiently. 

"Kanha? You too came? Come in!" Kirti welcomes him in. "Here give me. Clay is in the back yard." Kirti says taking the pots from Vishnupriya who immediately goes to the backyard with Krishna following behind.

Vishnupriya adjusts her seat and take a chunk of clay. "What are you doing with that?" Krishna asks sitting besides her. "Making pots." Vishnupriya says as she spins the wheel. 

"Stop staring like that or I won't be able to concentrate." Vishnupriya says as she could feel the stare of krishna. "Stop staring or-" Vishnupriya says. "Or?" Krishna asks and Vishnupriya forwards her hand full of clay towards Krishna who jumps back.

"I just took bath in the cold Yamuna early in the morning!" krishna cries jumping back like a monkey making Vishnupriya chuckle. "Krishn-" Vishnupriya tries tom push Krishna away but ended up throwing clay on his face.

There was a moment of silence both the parties trying to comprehend what happened until Vishnupriya bursted out laughing seeing krishna's muddy face. But soon the laughter was cut by krishna wiping his clay hands on Vishnupriya's face.

The two stared at each other in silence and soon a clay fight began. "Not my dress!" Vishnupriya cries as the clay aimed right on her pink lehenga and Krishna just laughs until clay is aimed right on his face making Vishnupriya laugh this time.

"Why is there so much noise? So much laughter with just the two of you?" Kirti comes just to witness the clay fight. "Oh my god! You two!" Kirti says gaining their attention. The two point at each other covered in clay. Kirti couldn't help but chuckle at the two cute figure covered in clay.

"Come here you two." Kirti says and they do as they say. "Was it fun?" Kirti asks while wiping their faces with a wet towel.

Though the two didn't plan this it was without any doubt a fun making them giggle. "this clay is abit sour and earthy in taste." Krishna says licking the clay. "Kanha, its not good to eat clay." Kirti says.

"But I ate soil when I was a kid once." krishna says. "Soil? Who eats soil? Didn't Yashodha kaki feed you anything back then?" Vishnupriya asks. "My dau and his friends were climbing the tree which I couldn't back then. Bored I ate soil, maiya got so surprised that she fainted." krishna giggles. 

"Even radha ate soil once when she was just a child." Kirti says. "Did you eat sakhi?" Krishna asks. "Sakhi?" Vishnupriya question. "yes sakhi! I had alot of fun with you today so from now I am your sakha and you are my sakhi." krishna says.
