AUTHOR'S POV

Agasthya slowly walked forward and looking at the sculpture.  It's face is covered with the veil.  So he is unable to see the face properly.  He is observing the sculpture keenly...and very carefully...

The sculpture's hands are adorned with beautiful bangles...it's long fingers are holding the veil.

A blurred vision is appearing in his mind but he is not able to concentrate on that. He is closing his eyes to see the images but now he is not in a mood to focus on that.

Curiousity and excitement are overcoming his mind. He is observing the sculpture and its sitting position. It is the only sculpture in this room...

Why this is so special? And mostly why it is sitting on bed?

He touched the bed and slowly sat on that. That very old cot is making a creek sound.

Hope ot should not break...

He chuckled at his thought...and touched the sculpture.  He slowly caressing it's hands, shoulders,neck. He stopped there and observed it's structure. 

Hmm...who made this perfect sculpture? Hatsoff to him or her. It has good structure ...

He thought while trying to adjust the chain on the sculture's neck. Then his eyes followed the back and ftom there waist...

It is adorned with beautiful waist band...

How long its been...hmm..probably...many many long years...but still ...this sculpture and its dress and ornaments are really shining and looking very new...

He touched the waist band...

Who are you? Hmm...who made you?

He started talking with the sculpture while caressing its long braided hair.

To whome you are waiting? Are you not feeling scared in this abounded palace? How long you are sitting here like this?

Agasthya is talking himself ...he whispering in its ear..

This place is coming in my dreams and disturbing almost every day...finally i came here ...i didnot find anything here except you...how can i leave you like this and go...huh??

Suddenly Agasthya got pierced by something in his hand ...he removed it and looked at his hand.

His hand is bleeding...he looked at the object...it's an ornament which is adoring the sculpture's hair.

He frowned and removed it and observing closely.

All the ornaments are in only gold except this...why this is decorated with only rubies.

He is looking at the ornament carefully...he eyes landed on it's center...a beautiful  drop like ruby is placed there. He observing it closely.

It's not looking like ruby...then what?

He touched it...it's looking like liquid. He turned the ornament and looked at its back. He observed that there is a very tiny lock system is there.

He removed it slowly and found a small transparent circle box. It's looking like a glass one. He looked at it...

What is this? how should i open it? I should open this carefully...

After some struggle he finally succeeded to open the tine box.
As he assumed it is not ruby but instead of it is a blood drop. A frown is formed on his handsome face and he is looking at it surprisingly.

What is this? Why this is blood drop is placed in this ornament... is there any connection between the ornament and this palace...

Later Agasthya  noticed that a small blood drop spilled on the sculpture when is opening the box.

He wants to wipe out that so he lifted his other hand and cleaning the drop. In that hurry...the remaining blood also spilled on the sculture's body.

Ohoo...i should clean it with some cloth. This sculpture is very beautiful eventhough iam unable to see its face. I will come again to this place once i reached Chennai and settled dadi. I will definitely take this along with me.

He thought that and trying to clean the drop. But with in milli seconds the drop  is observed by the sculpture.

Agasthya shrugged and got up from his bed. He is looking around the room while putting his hands on his pants pockets.

Hmm...i didnot observe that how these wasps lit themselves...

He went towards the back side of main door. After examining for 5mins he got to know that there is a link between the main door and these wasps. A heated coal is already placed in the wasps. Oil is placed in an animal skin bag behind the door which is placed just above the height if the wasps. The oil fell from it  When he opened the door from outside.

Ohoo...what a technology?..who is arranged this and that coal is also burning in all these freaking years...oh god...it's an amazing thing.

He touched the door ...and told the dagger..

I will come again buddy...now i am removing you and place it back  in your  original spot...ok dear..

He smiled a bit and removed the dagger's case from the door. He glanced the room again and at the sculture's too for one last time..

He is placed the dagger in its case and kept it in between his tucked shirt and pant. He closed one door from its behind and he is about to step outside...
But stopped suddenly when he heared sounds of bangles and anklets. He turned back ... stunned and frozen in his place...

He could not believe in his eyes...his eyes narrowed first and later they got widend what he is witnessing infront of him...

He slowly taking gignger steps towards it...not it...her.

He walked and stood before it giving some space to them.

He is witnessing that...the stone sculpture is slowly turning into human..into a beautiful young lady in a bride's attair...

Her skin tone is just like turmeric and sandlewood paste and glowing like a gold...she has moved down her hand which are holding her veil since decades...

Agasthya is standing like a statue...he forgot to take breath...forgot to blink his eyes...

Finally...after around 10mins ...that sculpture totally  turned into a gorgeous lady and slowly opened her eyes...her veil is still covering her face. She looked at herself ...she glanced at her body throughly...she is observing her hands, legs while moving them continuously and looking at them.

I am back...my life ..my life is back...

Agasthya heard a soft whisper from her....
