Meeting with Meenakshi

Rudra had thought that he would call Meenakshi to the temple but how would this happen because he neither knew Meenakshi nor did he have any means to contact her. Now he had only one way which went to the temple inside the village but it was very dangerous.

But Rudra was not going to give up, he was ready to do anything for his wife. Slowly time passed and it became night, Rudra was eagerly waiting for 11:00, it was about 10:00 now, after which Rudra started looking here and there, when he found that there was no one around, he started going inside by crossing the wall.

As soon as he took a few steps forward, he found that some people were roaming at a distance from him, seeing them Rudra hid, now as soon as those people went ahead from there, Rudra also moved forward peacefully.

There was another group of people standing who were talking among themselves, one of them probably saw Rudra. At that time Rudra hid but that man slowly started coming towards Rudra. If he had seen Rudra at that time, it would have been a problem for Rudra. After which Rudra picked up a stick in his hands and got ready. He decided in his mind that as soon as that man comes near him, he will catch his mouth and hit him on the head.

When that man slowly started coming towards him. Rudra also tightened his grip on the stick. Rudra was about to get up and hit him when suddenly a cat ran out from the same place where Rudra was sitting.

"Oh! So this was a cat, I thought who knows who has come" said that man while turning back. That man turned and started going back towards those people. Shortly after this, all those people also went towards the other direction. Now Rudra quickly entered inside the temple and sat down wrapped in a sheet.

Rudra completely mingled with the beggar. Rudra also looked like them. He sat there comfortably and waited for 11:00.

As soon as it was 11:00, he became restless and started looking around. After some time, he saw a girl coming towards him with something in her hands. Even after seeing that girl at such a late hour, no villager stopped her. After this, Rudra became a little suspicious.

On reaching there, Meenakshi started looking around. "You took so long to come. Do you even know how long I have been sitting here? I have faced so much trouble while coming here. If anyone here comes to know who I am, then I will not be able to go back alive from here", Rudra said angrily.

I know, but what could I do, it takes so much time anyway, Meenakshi replied.

"Leave all that, you were going to tell me something, tell me" Rudra asked curiously.

"Look, I feel that my sister did not die in an accident but she was killed under some conspiracy", Meenakshi said nervously. "How can you say that with so much confidence?" Rudra said in surprise.

"Actually, I had talked to him a few months before his death in which he told me that he was feeling scared for a few days and it felt like someone was following him. That day she was coming back home and on the same day she..." While saying this Seema started crying.

Rudra held her and said "Don't cry, it is not your sister's fault, maybe someone who knew Seema and me both has done all this but what could be the motive behind this, I will not keep quiet until I know this and yes I promise you that whoever has killed your sister, I will definitely take revenge from him".

"By the way where did your sister live in the city, do you know anything?" Rudra asked slowly.

Then Meenakshi started telling Rudra about the place, slowly Meenakshi was telling him her address but Rudra was also slowly moving towards his own house, when Meenakshi told him the whole address, Rudra stood surprised.

"By the way Seema used to say on the phone sometimes that her landlady is a little strange".

Meenakshi was stunned to see him so surprised And she said, "What happened to you? Is the address I told you wrong?"

"The address you told me is the same one where I have been living with my wife for the last two years," said Rudra in surprise.

His words surprised Meenakshi and made her think. "Be a little cautious of your landlady, there is definitely something different about her."

"Okay, I will remember, it is already very late and you should go back home," said Rudra softly.

After listening to him, Meenakshi wiped her tears and started leaving from there. Then Rudra said, "If I have to talk to you again, then." After listening to this, Meenakshi stopped and wrote something on a piece of paper and gave it to Rudra.

After some time, Rudra also sneaked out from there. While leaving from there, a thought came to Rudra's mind that how did that beggar know which village he belonged to.

Due to this question, Rudra stopped walking and turned back towards the temple.

Rudra ran towards the temple and again started going upstairs looking at all the beggars. This time no beggar was paying attention to Rudra and neither was the beggar there who had met Rudra earlier.

"Listen, listen, where did the beggar sitting here above go?" said Rudra worriedly. Hearing him, all the beggars started looking at each other, after which the beggar sitting first spoke.

"Hey, only we all sit here, who are you talking about?"

After that Rudra started telling them about the appearance of the beggar, after hearing this all the beggars started looking at each other and started laughing at Rudra. "It seems that he has come after drinking something, that is why he entered the temple at night."

"So you are laughing at me, I look crazy to you, then tell me why were you all staring at me when I was coming, tell me! Tell me, is there any answer?" said Rudra angrily.

Rudra's words calmed down all the beggars, after which one of the oldest beggars said, "When you came here, you did not come alone, he also followed you."

Now Rudra was surprised and started thinking who had come with him. "So now no one has come with me?" said Rudra with surprise.

"By the way you all were so shocked as if you knew him".

Hearing Rudra's words the beggar started looking at Rudra in surprise and then slowly started coming towards him. Now he put a tilak on Rudra's forehead. "It is not nature who has chosen you to protect them all and now it is your responsibility to protect them all. They are in danger not from anyone else but from you only".

"Why should I pay attention to the words of a mad beggar? Do you have any reason?" said Rudra with arrogance.

"When a person starts seeing the lessons of the world and people do not understand his words then people declare him mad. Now I leave it to you whether you believe me or not", said the beggar smiling.

Rudra took his words as a joke and quickly left from there. It was very late in the night but Rudra had to go home right now. He was not getting any rickshaw, auto etc. due to which he started walking on the road.

After all who was the girl living with Rudra, how did Seema die, where is Rudra's wife, who was that beggar, were Meenakshi's words true? Thank you
