                    THE STONE AGE

As the woman labored in the small cave, her cries of pain echoed through the forest, drawing the attention of an old crone who dwelled nearby. With a keen eye and knowledge passed down through generations, the old woman hurried to the cave, her steps steady despite the treacherous conditions

Entering the cave, the old woman's gaze swept over the scene before her: the woman writhing in agony, the baby's cries filling the air, and the crimson glow of the sky outside. The storm raged with a fury unmatched, as bolts of lightning crackled across the sky, illuminating the landscape in jagged bursts of light. Thunder rumbled ominously.

As the old crone's words instilled fear, whispers of superstition spread. Some saw the babe as a cursed being, a threat to their tribe. Under cover of night, villagers plotted to eliminate the perceived threat. Sensing danger, the child's parents fled into the forest, but were swept away by the raging floodwaters. Jairaj, a fierce tribesman, pursued them, intent on carrying out the grim task of eradicating the perceived curse. However, as he approached the helpless baby Leela, lying peacefully under the protective shade of a towering pine tree, something stirred within him.

A single drop of rain fell from the tree's branches, gently landing on Leela's forehead and awakening her. In that moment, as their eyes met, Jairaj's heart softened, and he couldn't bring himself to harm the innocent child. Instead, he scooped her up and fled from the tribe and the forest, leaving behind the superstitions and fears that had clouded his judgment. Later, the tribe mourned the loss of Leela's family, believing them to have perished in the flood along with Jairaj during his pursuit.

After 25yrs

In the heart of the dense forest, the rhythmic melody of horse hooves danced through the ancient trees, heralding the arrival of Vikram, a jovial and charismatic figure of the tribe. With a warm smile that lit up his face and a twinkle of mischief in his eyes, Vikram was known far and wide for his infectious laughter and quick wit. As he rode through the tranquil wilderness, his playful banter and easygoing nature filled the air, bringing joy to all who crossed his path. Amidst the serene beauty of the forest, Vikram's presence was like a ray of sunshine, brightening the hearts of those around him with his boundless energy and zest for life.

As Vikram laid eyes on Leela  in the tranquil glade, a mischievous spark ignited within him. Instead of approaching her with solemnity, he decided to showcase his romantic inclinations through playful banter. With a grin on his face and a twinkle in his eye, Vikram began to tease Leela  in his own unique way, hoping to elicit a smile and perhaps even capture her heart with his lighthearted charm. Despite the risk of being misunderstood, Vikram couldn't resist the urge to express his affection through humor, believing that laughter held the key to forging a connection with the enigmatic girl who had stolen his heart at first sight.

As Vikram  approached Leela in the serene glade, he couldn't help but be drawn to her presence. With a mischievous glint in his eye, he decided to break the ice with a playful comment, "You're more stubborn than Dino himself, and he's been extinct for ages!" His words were meant to lighten the mood and show his interest in a humorous way, hoping to spark a conversation and perhaps even a smile from Leela.

Leela was like eh why am i dino

Leela's response was a puzzled yet amused expression as she retorted, "Why am I being compared to a dinosaur?" Her curiosity piqued, she couldn't help but find Vikram's quirky remark amusing, despite her initial confusion.

Vikram said who knows i just wanted to talk w you 😂

Leela chuckled softly at Vikram's lighthearted remark, her initial skepticism melting away as she realized his intention was simply to strike up a conversation. "Well, you certainly have a unique way of starting a conversation," she replied with a playful glint in her eye. Emboldened by her response, Vikram grinned and said, "I figured being memorable was half the battle. So, what brings you to this hidden corner of the forest?"
