It was next day morning,
Anya had finished her morning duties and was just sitting near the river, throwing pebbles at it.
She couldn't get over how different and pure everything was. How safe it was for a young child to sit alone.
She signed.
She felt someone's presence behind her,
She froze first as a reflex then she relaxed.
"Aao Kumar Arjun!"
(Come Kumar Arjun!)
Arjun came and sat beside her.
"Ananye, aapko kaise patha? Ki mein tha?"
(Ananye, How did you know ? That it was me?)
Ananya shrugged not having an answer.
Arjun then asked her while mimicking her shrug,
"Tum aise kyun karthi ho?"
(Why do you do this?)
Ananye looked confused,
"Jab aap ko kuch prashn ka uttar nhi patha ho...tabh iss tarah bin bole aise karne se ...samne kada vyakthi ko uttar mil jatha hai...woh samaj jatha hai ki uske prashn ka uttar nhi hai...kya yeh yahan nhi hotha hai?"
(when you don't know the answer to some question....then by doing this..you reply without speaking...the person who asked the question understand that they don't have the answer to his question....is this not followed here?)
Arjun shook his head,
"Nhi Ananye! Yahan pe yeh nhi hotha..samasth Aryavart mein nhi hotha.."
(No Ananye! This is not followed here..not even in the entire Aryavart(India)..)
Anya nodded in understanding.
Arjun then asked softly,
"Tum..aaj sandhya ko wapas tumhare ghar chale jane wali ho na?"
(You..you're going to go back to your house today...in the evening right?)
Anya smiled and nodded.
"Haan Kumar Arjun! Aap ko patha hai mere Kanha Bhaiya....Dau..Maiyan..sab mere liye prathiksha kar rahe honge...Baba ne unhe pathr toh likh diya tha..par phir bhi!"
(Yes Kumar Arjun! You know my Kanha Bhaiya...Dau..Maiya...everyone will be waiting for me...Baba had written a letter..but still!)
Arjun smiled ,
"Tum apne Kanha Bhaiya se bohot prem karthi ho na? Tumhare Jyesh Balram se bhi adhik! Tumhare liye tumhare Kanha Bhaiya tumhare athyanth priye Bhrata hai na?"
(You love your Kanha Bhaiya a lot na? More than your Jyesht Balram! Your Kanha Bhaiya is your most favourite brother right?)
Anya smiled and said,
"Mein apne dono Bhaiyo se athyanth prem kar thi hu...par Kanha Bhaiya se thoda adhik...aur shayad Dau bhi yeh bath janthe hai...aur samajh the hai na..kyun ki woh bhi toh unse uthna hi prem karth hai...ananth kaal se lekar ...unhone kabhi bhi unka saath nhi choda hai.."
(I love both my brothers unconditionally...but the love I have for my Kanha Bhaiya is bit more...and I think even Dau is aware of this...and also understands...because he also loves him in a similar way...since the beginning of time cycle...Dau has never left his side..)
Ananya smiled as said this and thought about the brotherhood shared between Sheshnag and Narayan.
Arjun looked at her confused.
"Ananth kaal? Mein Samjha nhi.."
(Beginning of time cycle? I don't understand..)
Anya smiled knowingly and looked at him.
"Jab aapki mere bhaiya se bhet hogi...tabh..samay ke sath aap samajh jaoge.."
