According to Hindu mythology, the matter all around us is made up of 5 element (Panchmahabhoota)--Prithvi (Earth), Water (jal), Agni (fire), Vayu (Air) and Akash (ether). These 5 elements are the 5 senses of a human. It balaces all the life cycles. Over the centuries, these elements have been transformed into human forms to protect the Earth from diasater. On every 5 element there is sign of om🕉 except one -- ether. The akash (ether) element comprises of 2 different energies-- Dark energy and Time. As the dark matter in the universe expands the time also moves forward." -- "So, can these elements also brings a dead to life?" asked a man in his stunning black outfit, his face was covered with a mask of a monster. "NO" replied the black fog and the energy vanished. The man was resentful and left that place at once. In the black palace, the man entered in his court and called his Army Lord. " Find out some other way !" he ordered.
"As you say, your majesty." replied Army Lord.
The school bell 🔔rings and all the students of class 6A ran out of class. A l0 year old boy(Krishna) was sitting quitely in the class. He was looking at the wall which have lots of handy crafts made by students of the class. His pupil got stuck on a colorfull butterfly 🦋drawing. The edges of the drawing was not stuck properly so he got up and stand on a chair to stick it. In the corner only there was the name of the child who draw it "Sanvi Pal".After that he was thinking about that girl only in the class.
****After lunch break****
A small girl came near to krishna. Hey can you submit your homework. Krishna's eyes move forward to see who is asking and his hands moved to take out his homework, then his eyes met the eyes of the girl. In his mind "she is the one who made the colofull butterfly" Krishna aka kanha asked the girl "Is your name sanvi?" With calm voice.' Yep' sanvi said by nodding her head in forward direction and move to another bench to take their homework.
********After school ends********
Kanha was getting out of bus. Suddenly the rain starts pouring. Kanha gets out of bus. He came running inside shouting"mumma I'm home" But no response came. He started to shout ma, dadaji, papa, tarun. He started to walkout to search them. Unexpectedly his mom came with his younger brother from outside
She was drenched in rain 🌧 . "Mumma what happen? She hugged kanha and Tarun tightly and started to crying.Watching his mother cry his eyes also started to wet with tears.
Today's evening is more depressing as ever. For kanha, he can just see his mother lying on the bed in trauma, his brother coughing as he is suffering from fever and his grandpa, out of the home in this kind of stormy whether to buy the medicine. Kanha just went to his room, he was not able to believe that his father is no longer with him but who can stop the happening. It's now a bitter truth which he has to accept. It's said that when someone is with you, you won't realise how precious he was but when he is gone, you realise that he was the must. Likewise, Kanha is now understanding the cost of his father. He always used get angry on small things with his father but now there is no one who could bear his angriness. He slowly lyed on his bed, it was very puffy as Ahaan ( kanha's father) had speacially brought this for kanha to have a 'good sleep'. He rolled on the bed twice or thrice remembering all his father's living records. It's obvious, when someone is gone you remember him forever. But as he was continuing his actions he suddenly felt a little pain in his chest area and when he got up it increased more and more.
"Ah.. Wh.. at's that... " he moaned.
It started to increase as if his heart is trying to come out of his chest to express it's feelings.
"It can't be, it can't be " Kanha shouted as he woke up from his daydream.
Well, he is not a sleepwalker but sometimes when his dreams becomes too deep, some of the actions of his dream can be seen in his bed as well. He got up, wore his slippers which were dark black. Actually, black is his favorite colour ever since he is born. It do not have a reason it's simply because according to him it suits him. He gave a glance at mirror. Looking as if a sleeping beauty has been awakened by horrible beauty of dreams. His hairs are black as night without stars, his eyes though gentle but shining with mischief, he is heighted, has good health and what not. He is just a handsome standup young man.
But the fact is that he was sleeping since 2 hours so his beauty has lost its shine. He also recognized this and went to take a shower.
He was not even half bathed that a voice came, "Kanha.... Kanha! A.... ".The voice was heavy but still has some strictness and tone of a teacher. It was his grandpa.
" Kanha,didn't you sleep at night? Why are you sleeping in daytime ?"
"Dada ji, I am not sleeping. I am taking a shower." said Kanha while washing his hair.
"Shower?? Is this a time to take shower. Be quick, your neet result will be out after 10-15 minutes" said grandpa.
"Ah.. Neet result.. I don't think it's today. May be you have got some wrong news.. " said krishna while rubbing his body.
This reply is really a shame. If not for Kanha atleast for his grandpa. How can a lightning kid with such a great smartness as him can forget the date of his exam result. Obiviously, these are some of the traits of his father transferred to him. His grandpa shook his head and deeply sighed. "Completely like his father. Ahaan you have gone but your habits are not going" thought grandpa.
"Nonsense! It's today and now. Hurry up ,be quick otherwise I will give the laptop to Tarun
Ediot!"
"Tarun" this name is going to be and is a very clingy name for Kanha. It's his small brother Tarun. Although they are siblings and Kanha is only 5 years older than Tarun But in his home all the elders says, "Tarun is more understanding than his elder bro." It's not like that Kanha hate Tarun or Tarun hate Kanha, but it's just like Tarun likes to beaten by his bhaiya.
Kanha quickly wore his loose black pyjama and put on a white shirt on his bare back and got out of bathroom but he was late. As he entered in the living room he could see his laptop in his brother's hand.
"Ah.. Tarun give me the laptop" Kanha said gently. A mischeivious smile broke on Tarun's face. Kanha could compare this smile with the demon's one as he realised that Tarun's answer is "No".
"What are you smilling for? Give me the laptop. " said Kanha.
"Nope! Dada ji has given me. "
"So what? He has not given it to you forever, give it back to me. " said Kanha.
"Why he will give you. What work do you have with it?" asked Grandpa.
"Dada ji my result.. "
He was not even half completed his words that his grandpa roared, "Oh.. Now you are remembering your result. Didn't you said it is not today? Ah? "
"Dada ji! Don't make fun of me. I was joking at that time. I.. "
"Joking?? Yes beta so I am also joking with you.. "answerd Grandpa.
" Bhaiya, your result is out now. What's your code? I will check your result. " Tarun interrupted.
Kanha don't like that his result is seen by others before himself could see it. He snached laptop from Tarun's hands, "give me here. " He entered the code but screen was showing 'verification failed'. It was Tarun who recognized that his elder bro has not entered his name yet. This was really unacceptable. A person might forget everything in hurry but how he could forget entering his name. Upon hearing this Kanha smiled nervously. By scraching his head his answer to his Grandpa who was staring him without blinking was, "Everyone.. makes mistake. Why you are ...looking me like this?"
His Grandpa really want to beat this child. Now he his nearly 18 but the habits are still of 8 months. "Enter the name" shouted Grandpa.
"What happen? Is the result out? " a gentle voice came from kitchen. Well, this voice is not always this much gentle as it is now. It was Kanha's dearest mother Aarvi.
She entered into the room and took a glance at the laptop.Meanwhile, Tarun snached the laptop from Kanha and logged in.
"What..? How much... Ah.. 680..569or 2
.. "asked Kanha.
Tarun smiled again but this time his eye was shining like diamond. "What the hell are smiling for ah.." yelled Kanha.
"720.AIR 1" Tarun replied sweetly. The result was also as sweet as his answer. But Kanha can't believe unless he has seen it himself. He hurriedly got up from sofa and looked at the screen. It's in real. He has topped. Kanha became undoubtedly very happy not because only he has topped but also that he can now choose his favourite destination and leave Tamil Nadu.
'Tamil Nadu'.. Yes It's true. Ever since Ahaan died. Aarvi was not able to focus on her work and could not continue further because the memories of Ahaan still haunts her. So to avoid this and stride forward in life. Kanha's whole family shifted to Tamil Nadu. But Kanha did not liked this not because he hate South Indians but because he don't like them particularly. South Indians are mostly were intelligent and after all India's most developed states includes Kerela also but Kanha don't like the atmosphere and specifically the language.He has almost lived 7 years in Tamil Nadu but still he is not able to speak Tamil. Though his brother Tarun speaks Tamil fluently.
"Finally! I am going to Bhubaneshwar! Ah! " he cried with laughter. Kanha has choosed Bhubaneshwar as he wants JIPMER. The JIPMER college is one of the best colleges of medical science of India.
"Good job"said Aarvi
" Bhubaneshwar. Hmmm... So when will be the councelling. "asked Grandpa.
" It will be informed on the website soon and then I will gooooo!! "Kanha added happily.
His happiness was on ninth cloud but Tarun was not able to digest that Kanha will leave Tamil Nadu alone. For this he has two reason--first, he don't want his brother to have fun alone in Bhubaneshwar. He knows that if Kanha will be completely independent he will do lots of fun things which he also want to and second is yet a moral reason, the fact is that he is now habitual of his brother and live normally without his brother.Its's undoubtely called "brother's love".
" Yes, and then we will go! "said Tarun.
" Yes.. We.. One second 'we'? "said Kanha
At this time Kanha was really shocked and thought that his Grandpa will also join him. It's not like he don't like him. It's just because he now wants some freedom as he is now nearly 18.
" Why 'we'? I am the only one who is leaving. Who else is leaving with me"said Kanha quickly."
"ME" said Tarun with glowing eyes.
Kanha was dumbstruck. Not only him his Dadaji as well as his mother also. Why Tarun will leave with Kanha to his college?
"Bhaiya, take me with you.... I.. I have nothing to do here..... I--"
He was about say that he will feel isolated but Kanha was not at all convinced.
"No. How I will watch you all by my own. Besides, I am gonna live in college's dorm. Where will I keep you?" argued Kanha.
"Bhaiyaa.. I.. I.. just want to accompany you. I can take care of myself. " said Tarun
The statement which he has made just now sound to be sincere but yet Kanha was not ready to take him.
" Tarun.. Don't be like this. Your brother is older than you. It is natural that he will leave before you. When you will come at this age, you can also move.. Will you not feel bad if I or your mother will accompany you..? " Dadaji said gently.
"No.I will feel good. Besides I just want to go with bhaiya..! "
******************
The day duly arrived when Kanha has to move to Bhubaneshwar. But instead Kanha, Tarun was overly joyed. He clutched the hand of the suitcase with one of his hand and clutches his Bhaiya's hand with his other hand.
Kanha was feeling like he is going on a family trip. After so many arguments and discussion it was decided that Kanha will go to Bhubaneshwar with Tarun. And after three to four months Dadaji and his mother will apparently joined them because before few days, Aarvi had received a call that she had to shift her work to another state. She thought it would be best to shift to Bhubaneshwar. It will give her dual advantage. First, her sight is not too far from her home so she will now be able to manage the household and work with ease without mixing them.
Second, she can now keep an eye on his beloved 18 years old son who always call problems to him.
The flight landed to Bhubaneshwar. In the short journey of 1 hour 55 minutes, Kanha was not able to to relax a bit. He was just looking again and again at his small monkey brother who has holded the handle of the seat firmly like a small monkey. Now Kanha has a responsibility with him. He used to have many responsibilities before but he never had been responsible for a person.And now the first person is his own brother he sighed and calm down himself.
Relax Kanha, it's only for 3-4 months he thought.
They got out from the flight. He saw a very big crowd around himself. It was his first time having this experience. The airport was very big and there were some anouncements going on from the mic room. But it seems like Kanha's fate is like the whether at port--no sunlight, black shadowy sky filled with black clouds. It was daytime around afternoon but it was looking like the evening of cold winters.
"It seems like it will rain heavily. Tarun, let's take the taxi fast and--" Kanha was stating his orders but he was not completed half that he saw his brother in front of juice cane machine. Kanha can easily tell that what Tarun will demand next. He looked at Kanha with his eyes full of hope. "Bhaiya.. " He said sweetly. The voice was so sweet that Kanha's spine got a chill.
He stared at Tarun in vexation and said a firm "No". But Tarun was not convinced.
"When we will reach our destination, I will buy you some snacks along with juice. Besides, the whether today is cold. You will catch cold if you will drink that" said Kanha.
"I will not demand at home. Please I want to have one right now.. " he cried and clutched Kanha's favorite black hoody he had worn. He has clutched it so hard that Kanha's body started to show up. Everyone at the airport was glaring at them. Kanha found it too embarrissing and hitted Tarun head hard with his fist. Tarun stopped right at the moment and then they move out of airport.
"Alright, Taxi! " exclaimed Kanha and waved his arm to stop the taxi but none of taxi halted. An hour passed or so but they were not able to get a taxi and it started raining.
Tarun and Kanha got under the airport's shade and waited. Kanha did not expected that stopping a taxi would be such an exhausting work. And how his dadaji always managed to get a taxi.
An incense time later, Kanha saw a girl who was waving her one arm to stop a taxi and used her another arm to carry an umbrella along with some shopping bags. She was all dressed in golden white hoody and pants. She had one pony, her brown copper hair was drenched in rain. A taxi stopped and she started to keep her bags in taxi. Meanwhile, Kanha thought it had already been an hour. This girl is alone so she will only have one seat. Maybe I can share the taxi with her. With this thought Kanha and Tarun approached from far because they do not have umbrella.
"Excuse me miss, but can I trouble you with a thing? Can we share this taxi ? " Kanha shouted with both his hand cupping his mouth.
The girl looked at the two handsome boys. And said by cupping her hands around her mouth as well.
"Fine you can but I have a lots of things with me so can you two adjust? " she shouted
"No problem. We are habitual! " Kanha shouted and at the same time the rain slackened. Kanha and Tarun reached the taxi and put their suitcase in back of the car.
Then, the three got into the car and car started. "32 Iguana homes flat" Kanha told the driver of the taxi.
Kanha was sitting on the seat next to driver's while Tarun and the girl were sitting on back seats. The girl seemed to be quite friendly and cheerful so she asked Kanha--
"Hey, why there are so many suitcases with you. Are you two new in this city? "
"Quite correct. We are new. My college has just about to start so I had moved from Ta... my home to here. " said Kanha.
Kanha didn't wanted the girl to know they were from Tamil Nadu.
"Oh.. What a conincidence? I am here for my college too" the girl replied with a steady smile.
"Oh it really is a conincidence. By the way what's your name?"
"Saanvi" the girl replied.
This name is somewhat familiar to Kanha but Kanha was now too exhausted to think and trouble his big brain for this rather smallish name. So he just nodded.
After a brief time, Kanha looked at the mirror of the taxi and found that the girl Saanvi was asleep.Maybe she is too tired Kanha thought.
After an hour or so, the old driver who seem to be of fifty or fifty five called,"Miss we have reached our destination." But no respone came from back. Kanha looked outside the window. The spot where the car had stopped contain a very big building. It seems more like an office from the upper part and a store from downside. On the top of it two alphabet "AS stores". Kanha looked at the back seat, Saanvi was still sleeping.
"Saanvi, you have reached your place."said Kanha. Saanvi did not seem to move alittle bit. "Tarun, wake her up" Kanha said to Tarun.
"Didi, wake up, we have reached." said Tarun. Saanvi opened her dark brown eyes and sat straight,she rubbed her eyes and look outside the window.Â
"Oh...really really sorry. I was having a deep sleep. thanks." she said to Kanha and Tarun and got out of the car, picked up her 7 shopping bags and went to the stair of the store.
The car started to move. Kanha asked Tarun," ah! so my little bhaiya what do you like to eat right now?" He said gently but in a very cheerful manner.
Tarun's eyes lit up. "Ahh..burger,pizza,samosa,chaat,panipuri--" Tarun was not half finished that Kanha interupted him.
"I do not asked for elephant, I asked what you will eat." said Kanha.
The driver commented,"...."
" Why you asked then?" said Tarun awfully.
Kanha brought four samosas and two cokes. After an inense time later,they reached their destination. Kanha and Tarun got out of the car and looked at the multistoreyed buliding.It was huge with glass doors. from one look,one can say that it was before an office and now had turned into a flat.
Kanha and Tarun moved inside. There was a huge table at the corner and a computer was placed in between. There a man was sitting holding a newspaper.
"Excuse me, I.. We are here to rent a room." said Kanha.
"OH.." The man placed his newspaper down and then greeted them. He was looking older than their Dadaji. About ninety or something.
" You are Krishnan Yadav. Your Dadaji have told me on call"
Kanha sneered and corrected him immediately." KRISHNA, well, uncle Dadaji told me that we have to share our room?"
"Yes,yes, there is a pair including brother and sister. You need to share your room with them."
"Fine, uncle here is your advance." said Kanha.
"Hmm. Take your room's key." said uncle.
Kanha took the key and went upstairs with Tarun. They opened the door and entered the room. The room was a quite messed as if there had a fight before. "Bhaiya! Bhaiya! I will sleep on the upper bed." demanded Tarun.Â
" You can sleep on floor also if you wish. I will not stop." said Kanha leisurely.
He placed his suitcase in the corner and moved to bathroom. As he entered he smelled a very good scent. It is lanvender thought Kanha.
Kanha took a bath and then ready all the papers and documents of Tarun.
" Tarun, let"s go to your new school."
At evening, Kanha and Tarun came back at the room 'IG32' and opened the door. They were very tired. At school, Tarun had given too many straightforward answers that it had made Kanha embarrassed to the next level. He had also hitted his brother twice in this mist. Besides, Tarun was very tired and had gone to take a bath. So Kanha went to the balcony to get some fresh air. At last, he was the one who had to cook today becuse Tarun is angry with him for he had hitted him twice. Kanha's phone ranged and he picked up the call with a smile.
"Oh..now you remembering me..its very on time, right. KN Nanda" Kanha said sharply.
"Bhai, I was not able to pick up the call because of my dearest mother,you know it very well too. Well, how are you? " said the deep voice.
"Better than you" Kanha said softly.
"You are always, well are you in Bhubaneshwar? " the voice asked.
"Yeah, when are you coming, all your work is settled or not? "
" Oh.. I will be very soon meeting you just in a month or two. " the voice said leisurely.
"Fine.I will be waiting, I--" Kanha was just about to say that his eyes got stuck downside on the road. A bullet had stopped in front of the building and a boy who seemed to be in racer's uniform had sticked his long legs on the road and a girl who was behind him was descending from the bullet. She was in white hoody with black jeans and indeed Kanha knew this girl. Saanvi, why Saanvi is with a boy. Probably, it's kind of a relationship Kanha thought.
"Kanha?? What happened? " the voice from the phone called.
"Nothing.... I gotta go.....to cook. See you soon bye. " Kanha hanged up the call and looked down. The two figures were descended and had gone inside the flat.
Kanha sighed and went back inside the room and standed in front the door to look close at room. Why the other two roomates are not back yet? he thought. Meanwhile, Tarun emerged from the bathroom. He was not dressed and had wrapped only a towel at his lower body.
"Oho, Tarun nowadays you are so frank. Getting out without clothes. Are you trying to be a man? Well, can I remind you that there will soon be a girl living with us" Kanha said and laughed.
"Bhaiya! Don't make fun of me. I forgot to take my clothes, that's all! " Tarun said with a hmph.
"Forget? How can you forget such---" Kanha was not half finished that suddenly the door opened viloently and striked Kanha's back hard. Kanha croched and tilted left. At the door were two figures, one heighted tall with brown eyes, with hairs toching her eyes slightly and the other with one pony, fair skin and dark brown eyes, they resembled each other. But at last both were girls.
"Ahhhhhhh! " Tarun shouted.
Likewise, both the girls shouted " Ahhhhhh"
Kanha was crouched with one hand at his back and raised his head slightly.
"What the hell are you shouting for? " Kanha shouted but with a voice of pain and standed again. Tarun instantly ran inside the bathroom and closed the door with a thud.
The heighted girl came inside the room and God knows where she was looking or was really looking at all steppher with her big shoe on Kanha's bare toe.
"Ahhhhh! Are you blind or what! " Kanha shrieked and was about to fell when a pair of fair hands catched him. Her hands were very warm and beautiful with white sleeves. Her dark brown eyes were looking at him anxiously.
"Are you okay"
Kanha looked up. His black inky eyes stopped on girl's face. He stared for moment and said---"Saanvi? "
True enough it was Saanvi. Kanha thought he was with a boy but he was wrong. He immediately holded him and standed upright with one arm supporting his back.
"Bahin, do you know him? " said the another
girl.
"Why you are here? " Kanha asked.
"It should be us who should ask this" said the other girl.
"We are here because it is our room.... Oh probably you are the two boys who has rented this room too. " Saanvi said.
"Ohh.. So they are the two boys, I didn't know they will be here so soon" said the another girl.
"No way, uncle told me that we have to share our room with a pair including sister and bro---" Kanha stopped midway and stared the other girl hardly. She has short hairs, black boots, black jacket with a white T-shirt inside. Indeed, she looked very pretty and really like a boy and Kanha has also once mistaken her at the balcony for being a boy.
