Rabbit & Mouse (Deb & Ayeza)

An executed ritual

After Vrat offered help to them, both Ayeza and Aliya started to walk beside them.

"Wese yaha se kuch cheezein leni hai mai abhi aata hu" Vrat said and started to walk towards the other side. Now three of them were standing there while Deb was looking towards Vrat who was arranging two plates, Ayeza was glancing back and forth between Aliya and Deb and at last bear was busy again with her camera.

After 5 minutes.

"Mai kya keh rahi hu ghalib ki aulad kyu na ham tumhare liye ek adad partner dhundh le?!" Aliya suggested while checking her pictures but soon got a slap on her head.

"Mere liye koi partner dhundh ne se acha hai tum apne liye dimagh dhundh lo or haan agar dubara hame aisa idea diya na to tum sirf tasvero ma hi dikhai do gi" The poet warned her but despite her stern tone Aliya was smiling widely while rubbing her head.

Meanwhile Deb was listening to them but her eyes were on Vrat.

"Chale?!" Vrat shouted while coming towards them.

All of them went inside the 'Temple' as there wasn't much people there it was easy for them to pay their devotion, respect and love. One by one they keep his/her offering in a basket. The priest at the temple collected it from the basket and returned it to the basket after completing the puja. Then they picked up their offerings after it's completed.

Then they went outside the temple and bear being bear she slipped and fell on the ground while throwing her camera on the upward direction.

Deb catched the camera while Vrat moved towards her to help her with getting up. Ayeza was watching all of this with an expressionless face as she knew it was bound to happen.

" Tum insaan ho ya bhalu? Chalte chalte zameen par gir jaati ho, lomdi kahi ki" Vrat said while pulling her upwards.

"Haan?! Mai lomdi?!" Aliya shouted after listening to his talks.

"Or nahi to kya lomdi hi ho!" Vrat said it while hiding his smile.

"Thek hai!! Mai lomdi hu to tum... haan tum uddta kabutar ho!" Aliya fight back with him and showed her tongue while flapping her hands up and down to make it look like wings.

"Mai uddta kabutar hu?!! Tumhari to.." His sentence got cut off as he felt an arm dragging him away from them.

"Bada aya mujhe lomdi kehne wala huhh.." As she turned around she saw the poet twisting her own hands.

The bear gulped audibly and sweat started to form on her forehead.

"Mai kya keh rahi thi ghalib ki aulad kyu na ham race lagaye? Haan? Dekhte hai pehle tum mujhe maarti ho ya mai khud ko bachati hu!!" She ran away as soon as she finished her sentence.

"Tum milo zara hame, agar tumhara saar na tod diya to kehna" Ayeza mumbled and went towards the gate.

On the other side.

"Ki dorkar chilo tor ja khusi bole deoar? Chupchap sahajyo kore okhan theke chole jetam.(Kya zarurat thi tumhe kuch bhi keh dene ki? Khamoshi se madad kar ke waha se chale jaate)" Deb questioned him while looking towards the bikes.

"Thik achhe na jodi ami sahajyo chupchap korioni to ki hoyeche? Camera ferot diteo to tui vule gechis na.(Thek hai na agar maine madad khamoshi se nhi bhi ki to kya hua? Camera lautana to tum bhi bhul gayi na)" Vrat answered while pointing towards her hand.

"Ye sab na tumhari wajah se hua hai, araam se chale jaate hum dono waha se lekin nahi tumhe to yudh karna tha apni lomdi ke saath!" Deb spoke a bit higher than her normal tone and Vrat downed his head while looking at his hands.

"Yaha par hi rehna kahi mat jaana mai ye wapis kar ke aati hu" Deb said and move towards the temple again.

After searching for a quite decent amount of time she spotted the person to whom she has to return the camera.
After making an appearance in front of her while huffing a bit she forwarded her right hand and to give the camera to her while Ayeza was looking towards her face on which the sweat was visible.

After a minute she held her hand and put the camera on her hand as she was about to move back the poet took out the handkerchief from her pocket and forwarded her hand while Deb was watching her after understanding that she wanted her to clean up her forehead she took it and mumbled a small 'thanks' before turning away and went from there.

After a few minutes of standing there she noticed that she had to find the bear, she smiled a bit and went towards the hotel.
