Pilgrimage

Pilgrimage Of Love

March was almost at it's end, But the whole nation was preparing for the grand celebration for birth anniversary of someone considered to be an ideal man all over the world in Indian History.

Once again Ayodhya was glooming in Diyas, Colorful lights, Delicious sweets and Soothing music chanting only one name...Ram!

The whole country was overwhelmed and lost into the name of Ram. But Ayodhya had different glory than any other city. Every streets, Every path, Every corner of Ayodhya had only one thing echoing through out was Ram Siya Ram Siya Ram Jay Jay Ram...

People were coming from different states to experience such outstanding, overwhelming glory which comes once in life time...

It was still early in the morning, Sun was still yet to rise to welcome the day when Lord Vishnu descended on earth as a human being. But as if whole city was awaken to welcome Lord Ram before the sun itself.

One lady in her 30s was trying to cross the crowd to see the sunrise along with her daughter sleeping on her chest while her face hidden on the lady's nape as it was still too early for a kid to be awake.

The lady approached at the bank of Saryu, looking at the ascent of the sun rising from the horizon from the opposite side of Saryu. Her shinning eyes were capturing the glimpse of breathtaking nature in front of her while her dimple smile proving the happiness it was giving to the latter's soul.

"Mom! Ham subh subh yaha kyuu aaye haiii...", A girl around six years old murmured grumpily in her mother's ear.

HM chuckled at her daughter's grumpiness and answered calmly, "There..." HM point towards the rising son... "To show you the real beauty of nature Siya...".

Siya opened her eyes adjusting to the light, She looked towards her mother was point earlier. Indeed her soul felt calm seeing the most peaceful sunrise. And Both stayed staring at the scenario getting lost in it almost.

Not that it was something different from usual sunrise every other day. But the importance of the day and the preparation all around the city to welcome this day with open arms and hearts was making it more special. Seeing the sunrise on the day when Lord Ram born on earth from their birthplace indeed had a different feeling than seeing any other sunrise ever...

To add their happiness another woman in her 30s approached them kissing HM's cheek softly she said, "Good morning baby..".

HM looked towards the lady smiling she answered, "Good Morning Bab..." She was about to kiss back the latter but her daughter stopped her by putting her little palm over her lips, "Mom subh se 20 bar kiss kar chuki hai aap Karu ko ab bas ha please...".

KS looked towards her daughter widening her eyes definitely trying to hide her smile. Meanwhile HM closed her eyes looking sidewise towards her daughter's rabbit smile...

"Karishma ham iss chibdi ko yahi chor jaye?!", HM asked now looking at her wife who was trying her hard not to laugh.

"Arehh... Haseena aap psychiatrist hai psycho nahi!", KS said widening her eyes as she took Siya in her hand instantly hiding her towards other side of her shoulder.

"Whatever!", HM looked back at sunrise rolling her eyes fretfully. KS chuckled at it as she passed her face little closer towards the latter while looking at rising sun...

HM smiled inwardly kissing softly on KS's cheeks whispering, "Good Morning Mrs Malik!". Meanwhile Siya was too lost in seeing the sunrise while the orange glory falling upon the entire city due to half seen sun behind it while it's reflection could be seen upon the smoothly flowing water of Saryu.
