The Telescope...

Paarya woke up by flipping of pages, of the book, lying nearby on bedside table, she had fallen in a slumber around five evening, the wind blew faster making the book noisy, she got up to check out the setting of gyrometer, it indicated 14 to 89 by one 10th, making her sure of possibility of catching a sight of grey giant cyclone, she had arranged the analog meter readings converting to numerical input in possible display. She delighted in it's design and was later promoted as it's operating officer, as she checked and noted.. the rings and pendulums had delightful trinkling as it made conversion for input signals.. the conversion was made for adjustment and accuracy in position of scope to automatically detect and follow priority wavelengths.. the scope was installed on side floor of her apartment.. and she was allowed to make connecting balcony passage by a door.. hardly any other officer bothered with scope without her permission.. apart from two attendants that mostly always worked on first floor.. she walked back to her desk ..

Vikram: hi..

Paarya: hi..

She felt underdressed suddenly feeling like butter in scorch.. Vikram was his senior.. and occasionally came to check data .. inventory and also sometimes to see her.. she had denied him dating a couple of years back.. but he kept up looking.. seeing her..

Vikram: oh.. you look so tired.. lets go out dinner..

Paarya: no.. i ..

Vikram: you are going to be single forever.. ? Comeon .. you won't find anyone better then me..

Paarya: i.. .. ok.. i will be back in 15 minutes..

Vikram: hurryup..

Paarya: i know..

Vikram: what.. ??

But she had already disappeared in passage.. he repeated on her back.. "what..??" ..

They dined at "spice and straw" .. on way back..

Vikram: how are you with scope. . And meter.. ? Any chance of new settings .. ?

Paarya: slight .. i already updated twice.. in last 18 months.. additional set is ready but it disturbs the galaxy rt7 view..

Vikram: so leave it.. i didn't know you worked on anything else then grey cyclone..

Paarya: i do .. i like..

Vikram: yes.. ok.. i will set it on scope s2 on first floor.. u just focus on setting improvements.. you are an engineer.. don't waste time on night sky scenery. ..

Paarya went still .. and silent. ..

Vikram: i don't think you are interested in dating.. would you like to marry me.. ?

Paarya: excuse me..!!

Vikram: i .. like you very much.. ..

Paarya: i don't want to marry.. but i will think..

Vikram: you should.. ..

They reached back station by 11..

Paarya: come up for a coffee..

Vikram: seriously.. ? I mean.. hell.. ya .. i need a coffee..

Paarya smiled.. he got captivated in her smile .. her merry face alight in fall from a nearby pole.. he grabbed her.. kissing.. she shifted to one of the pillars of parking.. which was totally empty.. easily in his hold..

Vikram: i love you..

Paarya: yes.. i will..

Vikram: soon.. ?

Paarya: yes.. lets go upstairs..

Vikram: well then .. .i think.. maybe.. ..

Paarya: please do come tonight..

Vikram: yes..

He kissed her again before they went up..

Vikram went to check telescope while she made coffee.. and they spent night looking out in to nightsky..

The cliff..

Paarya went to the cliff everyday.. in the hope that she would hear the melodious cadence once more.. just once more.. please.. God.. she prayed.. as she climbed the steep clear trail.. to the top of the hill nearby her house.. she went regularly to see the sunrise or sometimes sunset mostly in the evening.. please as she urged herself forward.. the stiff cotton folds of her paticote flipping by her legs... she hardly payed any attention to the side.. the shrubs looked extremely still as she moved .. appeared yellow sometimes.. she wondered .. if it was flowers or the drop in her false vision.. both sides were flooded with spring blooms... lightly sprinkled.. . shrubs and bushes... somewhere.. right from out the gate of her house to the steep incline.. then a rise.. really was a small span of substantially wide strap to the base of earth rise to hill and then a little awkward steady incline up to the small flat ground atop hill and uneven extension of the hill side in all ways.. the...

Tangle..

Stars shimmered in dark of moonless sky.. Ragbi peered out from under her veil.. it must be about quarter past midnight.. she thought.. a lamp burned bright far away in the wheat field, and numerous other tiny lights twinkling around village .. during the season of winter festival.. appeared as though teaming of stars on full moon of winter night sky.. putting an illusion of moon and stars bright in dark of horizon instead of blank moonless night, only a bit closer.. her veil lifted moving in a gust of wind, and zari border of her drape shone like a tail of a comet, she tugged at it pulling overheard.. then stepped down the porch and went to sit by neem tree in the front yard.. looking out to distant horizon .. her eyes searched for a sign of a horse advancing .. moved about pathway crossing directly across fields from village entrance and faraway to one of a street.. periodically.  She was waiting for her husband moko, to return from jama's village where he had gone to give fes...

The Pyre..

Moori came up to surface out of water.. in a single plunge .. the water was cold.. and the summer night smoggy and humid.. filled with October heat.. sea roared a humm of a lover.. as she surfaced and walked out to sands.. water ran through her form wrapped in white.. fabric.. a light reflected on her as she neared large trees .. forming a dense jungle coastline woods.. her clothes flashed yellow in light from fire near a opening to jungle from seashore.. as she neared the fire she had started before taking a plunge into sea.. nearby.. trees.. a shadow moved out behind her.. and disappeared a little further down the line.. she continued looking ahead .. Yajmi stood beside a large tree looking directly by fire.. his mind in the claws of questions and thoughts of this female .. he trembled as his legs wobbled under the vision in front .. of him.. She neared the pyre and climbed a small step of logs and set on heap.. she always set up as long as the fire burned out in cold black stu...
