Song: Subhanallah






Overlooking the peaceful environment of the temple premises from their seating place , Rudransh and Aarvi sat in a peaceful silence. Rudransh, though had lived his whole life in that city yet he realised that he doesn't even know it all too well.

" Kitni ajeeb baat hai na , ki hum zindagi bhar apna saara waqt ek jagah pe beeta dete hain phir bhi hum us jagah ko bhi poori tarah nhi Jaan paate." Rudransh said, breaking the silence.

" Ab yahi dekh lo , main bachpan se isi seher mein Raha hoon , pala badha hoon phir bhi is mandir ke baare mein mujhe koi idea hi nhi tha. Aur jab sochne baitho toh realise hota hai ki is seher ke aur bhi aise kayi kone honge jinke baare mein mujhe koi idea nhi hoga." He continued looking around.

" Nature na ek mirage ki tarah hota hai. Jo use jis tarah dekhna chahe woh use waisi hi dikhti hai. Ab dekho jaise ek ped hai. Koi insaan us ped ko khushi se dekhta hai kyunki us ped se uski bachpan ki khushnuma yaadein Judi hain but at the same time koi usi ped ko nafrat ke Nazar se dekhta hoga kyunki uske parivaar mein se kisi ne uspe faansi lagayi thi. Ped toh ek hi hai but insaanon ke perspective alag alag hain. Aur ek mirage kabhi apne saare secrets reveal nhi karti . Usi tarah nature bhi hai . Har kone mein tumhein koi naya aur andekha pehlu mil hi jayega. " Aarvi laid out her thoughts.

Rudransh found himself captivated by her profound insights and thoughtful analysis. Each time she shared her perspective, he was left in awe, marveling at the depth of her thoughts. Her viewpoint was not just different; it was a mosaic of intricacies, weaving together details that others often overlooked. Her unique perspective painted the world in vibrant hues, enriching his own understanding and leaving him hungry for more of her intellectual nourishment.

" Aage ki kya planning hai?" He asked her.

She looked at him in question and he elaborated," I mean about our day. Ab aage?"

" Puja toh ho gyi aur Prasad bhi kha liya humne. Tumne subah se kuch aur toh khaya nhi hoga aur mujhe bhi bhukh lagi hai toh kahin khane chalein?" She proposed.

" Perfect idea. Mere pet mein toh chuhon ne fight start kar di hai. Andar hi andar main pray kar rha tha ki tum khane ki baat kardo." Rudransh replied with a playfulness in his voice.

Aarvi chuckled at him . He took out his phone searching something.

" Ruko main check karta hoon ki yahan aas paas koi resturant hai ki nhi ." He suggested but Aarvi shook her head.

" Resturant kyun? Subah subah Double paise mein tasteless khana khane ka irada hai kya?" She asked getting down from her sitting place.

" Toh phir Kahan khayenge?" He asked confused.

Aarvi washed her hand using the nearby tap . She turned back and said with a playful attitude filled voice ," follow me balak. Aaj hum tumhein humari khaas jagah pe bhojan karwayenge."

" Ji Mata Ji," Rudransh replied with the same playfulness making both of them chuckle.

They walked for a while and seeing no shops around , Rudransh questioned her , " Kahan hai yeh bhojansthal?"

Aarvi pointed towards a small house at a distance and said ," woh raha"

He was a little skeptical looking at the house but decided to trust Aarvi. As they were walking towards the house and idea stuck in Rudransh's eyes and he turned towards Aarvi with mischievousness in his eyes.

Aarvi looked at his expression and asked with nervousness , " what's that look for?"

" Race karogi?" He asked her. She raised an eyebrow in question thinking she heard him wrong.
