I NO LONGER FEEL LONELY

"Hey veer, that looks like a cotton candy"

"Yes aaranya, it's a cotton candy"

"Buy me that"

"Why? don't you bring any coins with you?"

"No, veer,....don't you buy for me?"

"No"

"You don't even buy me a candy. How sad. Master you are very bad"

"Hey drama queen, stop your drama and let me buy that"

"How sweet of you master"

"Hold my hands aaranya, you may lost the path"

"Hey, I'm older than you, why should I hold your hands"

"Even though you are older than me, you are dumb, so it's better to hold my hands"

I hold my hands with him. We enjoyed the whole day wandering out.

"Hey, veer, I spent the whole day with you"

(veer's inner voice: come to think of it, I and aaranya spent a whole day together. Whenever I was with aaranya, the time went bit faster than usual"

"Hey, veer, why are you too quiet, is your dumb mind filled with thoughts. But, you don't even have a brain then how do you think?"

Veer pinched my hand.

"Ah.. it hurts. Then master veer, I hope from now onwards you won't feel lonelier"

"Yes aaranya, I NO LONGER FEEL LONELY"

"But I need a favour from you"

"What? tell me, I will try my best to fulfil your favour"

"Tell your brother that you wish to become a knight"

Veer stood silent. "Veer, don't hesitate. If you fail to tell him about your choice, you will regret forever". Veer smiled.

"Ok aaranya, I will tell my brother. But accept your failure, you failed to make me call you sister"

"Haha, I won, Now you called me sister"

"No, I don't" "yup, you called me"

"no" "yup" "no" "yup"

"Enough veer, I hope you will become a great knight and save this world from monsters"

"And aaranya, I hope that you will stay besides me forever"

At midnight,

"Brother"

"Veer, what are you doing here. It's midnight. Go and sleep"

"I'm just waiting for you brother"

"Waiting for me, why?"

"Wanna tell you something"

"We can talk at morning, go now"

"No brother, I wanna tell you now"

"So stubborn, then tell me"

"Brother,, I don't wish to continue your position after you. I wish to become a knight"

"How insane, do you how valuable my position is. But you are telling me that you gonna become a mere knight"

"The position of the knight may be lower than the minister but if I threw away my ambition I will spend all my life regretting on my choice. Brother, our parents died when I was too young, the only parent I knew is my brother. You worked hard and cared a lot for me. I hope my brother won't force me to throw away my ambition"

Vidhur stood silent and then he slowly moved away without any words.

At morning,

"Hey veer, did you tell your brother?"

"Yes, aaranya. After listening me, he stood silent and moved away"

"Don't worry veer, be positive."

Suddenly our conversation was disturbed by a voice.

"Veer, what are you doing here?"
