Part 18 Plan

At the same time, Arnav took Nani from the Ashram, and Aarav followed the man who came out of the Ashram. They saw him having a bag in his hand. He headed to the nearby shop. They silently followed him and stood a little away, observing him.

"Suklaji, I need these items" he handed a chit in which all the needed items were listed.

"Hello, Balramji, it seems the preparations are going in full swing to welcome the saint..." The shop owner asked.

"Yes, Suklaji. They are coming tomorrow... that's why we are getting ready to welcome him"

"That's nice. When is he coming?"

"He is coming on his foot..."

Cutting him,

"Whaaat? Is he coming on his foot from Kedarnath?"

"Yes... he is so strict. He lives a real and strict ascetic life. He won't compromise with his habits. It seems"

"Oh..." The shop owner was surprised.

"That's why we can't say when he will reach the Ashram."

"What's the big deal? We can reach Delhi from Kedarnath in four days"

"It's for a common people like us... we will walk in a single stretch. He will not do that. He will cover all the Temples on the way..."

"Oh... was he touching Haridwar too?"

"No... he is Lord Siva's Devotee. So, he won't go to Haridwar. He comes through the Meerut highways"

"Is he coming alone?"

"No... he is coming with his disciples"

"Does he have many disciples?"

"Don't know but I'm sure he would not have many disciples because it's very tough to be with a strict Guru like him"

"Yeah, you are right"

Sukla handed him the things he wanted.

"Thank you, Suklaji" he paid money and left.

Aarav and Rakesh also left the place.

"What are you thinking?"

"We are going to enter the Ashram in the disguise of the saint"

"How?"

"We will have to meet the saint"

"Why?"

"To join him"

"Will he accept us as his disciples?"

"If he doesn't accept us, we will finish him and will replace him"

"What if it leads us into trouble?"

"We are already in trouble. There is nothing new but if we miss this chance, we can never get a good chance again to be in the safer zone"

"How will we reach him? There are three routes to Delhi from Kedarnath..."

"He is coming from Kedarnath touching Meerut. So, he will come through the Meerut highways. We can easily reach him"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, if he had touched Haridwar, we could not have guessed his route because There are two routes to Delhi from Haridwar"

"Thank God..." Rakesh said.

"Thank Kedarnath" Aarav smirked and Rakesh chuckled.

On the other side,
