Dhara was lost in her own world. She was trying to entangle the mess of thoughts. She was expressing her grief. These emotions were locked by her in the cage. It bursted out when she started talking. All the pain she treasured wanted to peep out.The tears were shining as if they were eager to kiss her chicks. Her eyes were wet and voice was gloomy. It was hard for her to dig the past, the sorrow she buried deep somewhere.
Radha was patting on her back. She was silent and quite. She didn't found words to comfort her. She knew the grief she exclaimed. Radha was able to feel it but not a word she was able to speak. The atmosphere turned cold and cloudy.
...
"I am sorry!",Dhara rubbing her eyes said to Radha. She finally came to her sense.
"It was fine. You can open up to me. I will listen to you silently like the moon does. And I won't show any emotions."
Dhara with a contented smile hugged Radha.
"Thanks!"
"I promise to be by your side.",said Dhara

"Dhara what are you doing up there? You know na its not allowed to go there. Come down immediately!"Lata was all red by anger. Since half an hour she was searching them both.
Dhara knew that she was going to get earful from Tai
"I am sorry Tai. I will come down but don't shout at me. Afterall I am your obedient girl.", Dhara was trying to apply some butter. Her technique was smooth but old. It didn't got any output. She got earful from Lata. Radha was safe as she was new.
"Look Radha, you will not be spared next time if you break the rules. Dhara will explain you about the rules."
"And you Dhara, you should tell her each and every rule. Don't try to be smart." , Lata's voice was strict. It had sense of discipline and touch of mother's love.
"Ok Tai ", Dhara was acting to be obedient.
As soon as Lata left she started laughing.
"Didn't you felt bad?"
"This happens daily. And love the way she scolds. It feels like I do have mother."
Her face was covered with sour smile.
