Third Person POV
present day
Sinhagad fort
She stood there staring straight at the horizon. All the mountains staring back at her. So much of calm and peace. not a single soul was around her... at least in this part of the fort, of course except for that talkative cricketer. But this "Too much" of silence was now making her question every decision of hers.
Frustrated she says " I am not able to understand what's happening"😡.and her voice echoes around them.
He was sitting a bit far on the stairs, "with whom?😞" he asks
"me only😕" she replies still staring ahead at the mountains.
"everything is happening good only😉" he says playing with pebble. he was leaning on his elbow at the stair above ,in a lied down position.
"but that's what you think...rather everyone thinks this only" she replies still not looking at him.
He sits upright from his twisted position and loudly asks "means?... everything is good na?😮"
"I don't understand how should I behave😟" she replies. "with whom😕?" he questions
Irritated she finally breaks away her stare to the mountains and glares at him yelling "can I speak something?😡"
"by yourself?😕" he again questions her
"I feel like😒" she say desperately.
"okay..hehehehehe(he laughs his weird laugh) you know there's a big problem of coming at such places..." he says
"hmm... we start to think way too much about ourselves, no?" She says again staring at the mountains ahead of her.
"aye!!!...we don't feel such things... all this is your problem (he gets up from the stairs and comes towards the space where she was standing crossing a narrow rocky way) you Mumbaikars have this problem... you guys don't get to experience all this...this kind of nature, atmosphere... all you have around yourselves, is all the buildings, crowd, people...😂😂😂...look!!(He spreads him arms...standing at edge)...this is true nature...and this available to us at a hands distance.... that's why we don't feel, uneasy, panic, extra thinking and all that...you'll can feel that." he says now staring ahead of him.
"you never get panicked?" she asks folding her arms on her chest.
"never" he turns around looking at her.
"are you sure" she asks "sure means?...very sure" he retorts smiling showing his 32 teeth.
"then what had happened to you? back at tulsibaug?" she asks
He stares at her shocked for a while but then asks "what happened to me?"
"you tell na....what happened?"😞 she prompts him to say
" at tulsi baugh...ah... you had got lost in the crowd...nothing else" he replies smiling.
"that's it?" she asks with a smirk on her face. "yeah" he replies with a small smile.
