Dhruti's pov

I was watching movie when my father interrupted me saying

" get ready beta.. we are going temple". I was was surprised why is he asking me.

I asked my father.

He said "a monk from BHUTAN come in our town so we are going to meet him".

Few minutes later...i was dressed up ready to meet him(monk) as i was too clumsy to wear something good and cheery on top my father don't mind as well.

I was in my pink pjs and grey XL size sweatshirt ( ik it sounds weird). On the contrary my sister and father were dressed up from top to bottom looking elite.

After 1 hour of drive we reached our destination . I was familiar with the background so i went to have a walk with my sister meanwhile my father met some of his coworkers.

I was walking when i saw a guy dressed up in dhoti with a nuptical chain and chandan on his forehead. I was quite shocked as the boy was having a good body as if he workout on daily basis but judging (ik it's bad but still i am girl and i can ...atleast a little bit) by his attire i thought may be he is looking good thts it.

I thought he was some sort of priest who were supposed to perform rituals but he was way too young to do so.

While i was busy in my thoughts i collided with a tree (yes a tree) . I searched for my sister and guess wht i saw ... she was behind me and laughing.

I start scolding her not thinking about the surroundings. After a while when i was done i notice few people looking at me and also my sister making a disgusting face .

I mouthed  "sorry"   which she ignored.

I also saw in crowd tht guy was also watching me and smiling. At that point i just wanna puch his face but i controlled myself.

I was called by my father . We went to him . While going to him i bitched about that guy to my sister and she  just hummed.

We reached temple after few minutes of walk . My father introduced us to his co workers and the priest.

I come to know that boy can't be priest than who is he . I was wondering when my father introduced me to the monk .

I must say He was very humble . I was blessed to have a short conversation with him. We gifted him a shawl and also some sweets. I than went to the main temple to do some puja . Once i was done i bring back the Prashad for everyone. I start giving it to persons .

At last i went to the monk . He took it and asked me to give it to his son as well.

At first i was confused how can he have a son but later refused to overthink much.

I asked him where is he . He guided his fingure to that same guy .

I asked   "him".  

He said " yes thats my son..DHAIRYA." .

My mouth automatically formed "o". I went to him and handed him prashad which he took gladly.

Me being curious couldn't hold myself and i asked him

" he said you are his son but he is a monk. How can he have a child ? Were u born before he took ...." i couldn't complete the sentence as i remembered i said a lot as starters.

I closed my eyes and inhaled a deep breath and said "sorry" . I was about to go when he said " He is my baba . I am not his biological child nor he has any . There is something much more than you can think and ask"

I don't know why but his voice was calm and soothing . All of sudden i want to know his story . About him and his baba .

Idk why but i couldn't hold myself and asked   "care to explain "    with a stoic expression ( yh hate me for this) .

He was still calm and i was getting frustrated. I went to him and said angrily

"look.. if you want to tell please do hurry up .ik i am.sounding rude but i am too curious and i live in average brown household .. so i can't stay here for long" i complete this in a go .

And once i was done i was ashamed of my doings .   " Sorry... i was just.. i am sorry ".

Suddenly    "Didi .. papa is calling. Where are u ?"     I got panicked and before he could say anything i run from there as if i was on fire.

I didn't get the time to see him again in His two days to stay . Either i couldn't find him or when i does its almost time to go back. So after that i neither met nor talked to him.
