Indu was a sleeping beauty. She liked to very very much, even if she gets 5 mins break. But that night, she was suffering really hard to get a sleep. She turned this side and that side of the king size bed, but she couldnt.
Rishi too felt the same. He was walking here and there in his bedroom. And atlast went out of the room.

Indu got up from the bed. She began to look for something, but what sge doesnt even know. Suddenly her eyes went to the huge covered portrait. She wanted to look it, but she couldnt.
Then she went out to the pool, and saw Rishi sitting there.

Rishi, why dont you sleep??

Indu... you here... what happend? Your are okay right?

No Rishi, not at all. Actually I wanted to say you something very serious.

I too wanted to talk to you. But you start first...what happend??

Rishi... th..

Suddenly her eyes stuck to the refection of the moon in the pool. Rishi looked what she was staring. They saw the moon, it looked as it was smiling at them. A small smile come on her face... slowly she rested her head on his shoulders... he placed his head above her's , covering her with his arms... they dont looked each other... they were in some other world.

Bahu,... you were here... I was looking for you alround... what are you doing here...

She sat beside him near the pool.

Why devasena  you should be sleeping now, but now you are here.. wanted something.?

I knew it, you will forget...
Bahu it your birthday.... happy birthday...

She hugged him happily, but he dont seem that happy.

Thinking about your parents...??

Hmm...

She rested her head in his chest... Bahu caressing her hair...

Every have their birthdays a happy day except me... my mother and my father... both left me the same day... how could they do that... without even seeing my face for once... how could they left me..alone...

What are saying Bahu... it was not there fault... it was faith... I am so sure they will be showering you with blessings from heaven....
And you are not alone... Maa is here... Mama is here.... the whole Mahishmathi kingdom treats you as their son.... and moreover there is one cute girl... always loving you like her life..

He didnt say anything. Just smiled and kissed her forehead. He knew she talked about herself. He kept her more close to him, where she felt the most secure place in the whole world.
