The single ray of hope from the glowing cross brought millions of rays in their heart ……mind and soul… the ray of light revived them to the core…. Rajveer Naina increased their pace of run….and finlly…. Yes…. They were there! As the vision of the church gradually got cleared before them, their vision got blurred… tears that were flowing unconditionally like the summer tempest…. Tears of fear…..tears of frustration…tears to escape the unescapable…..and finally tears of joy.
But…… how can the evil powers spare them so easily?? Will the demons accept their defeat in front of their will power?
Naina………… hum church k kareeb pauch gaye…..said raaj…….. his tone reflected a joy.. of different kind…
Ha Raaj….. ab syed hum bach jaaye…….Naina said…. No… she wasn’t tired then…… that ray of hope energized the bruised souls with new imperial power…
And within minutes.. they were in front of the church….. but….. to their utter dismay….the church gate was locked… and why wont that be?? Father Samuel wsnt supposed to be there at night… he has his own place of dewelling….
They stopped only after getting on the verandah of the church….. they breathed finally…… in peace…. A little that they have earned..
Raaj…. Father Samuel to nahi hai….. ab hum unhe kaha dhundenge?? Asked naina…. She wasn’t sure if the verandah of the church was safe enough..
Naina……ab hum father ko dhundne nahi ja sakte….. is church compound k baahar maut baahe failaye humara intezaar kar raha hai….. lets sit here….. saying that he sat on the floor, leaning his back on the closed door….his legs stretched forward….. Naina…baitho yaha….. yahi subah ka intezaar karte hain….. subah father aane se kuch na kuch rasta zaroor niklega….. tabtak is se zyada safe jagah aur nahi hai humare liye……he said…looking at Naina….
Ha…… syed aap theek hi keh rahe hain….. saying this naina sat beside him…..leaning on his chest….grasping his arms tight..
And minutes elapsed……. Those minutes changed to hours……. Nothing….but the sound of silence could be heard…during those scary dark hours….
The two shattered souls……..unkowingly went to deep slumber…… Day long tireness took its final toll.. as they slept………those dark hours slowly passed…..the watch tic taced till it was early dawn…….
