"Hota hoga kanun mai...but dosti Mai nhi" Alisha said with a ear to ear grin

|•Kabutar•|
1890,
Jaipur,Rajasthan
A lady in her early 20s is seen standing alone on a balcony of a palace...the yellow golden light of sun was just shinning her moderate heavy jewels making her look heavily...the sun kissed face of her was glowing compititing the sun light...a mole beside her lips,her perfect small nose with a traditional nath,her no makeup but makeup like look, her deep brown eyes showing the depth of her emotions but the one and main thing was missing....her smile...the best makeup one could do is just to smile but that was missing from her face
Her beautiful face was covered with unexplainable worries...her restlessness was evident on her face clearly
But suddenly her demon changed as soon as she saw a pigeon or say a Kabutar approach her
The kabutar silently sat near her on the railing as if to know what's the matter of her worries
The exchange of his glances was very well known to her so she sighed before continuing
"Tum toh jante hi ho naa bandhu ki hum iss rajye ki rajkumari hai... bachpan se humne yudh kala sikhi taki jab bhi sankat ka samye ho hum yudh kar sake...parantu aaj bhasa ne fir hume pursho se kaam aaka"
A lone tear escaped from her beautiful eyes...the insult she was gifted from her own father for being a lady is unbearable for her
From the very childhood she is fond of different types of swords and knifes... being the only child in her family and that too a daughter her father made her learn something like dancing, singing,etc but she refused to learn that...she secretly started learning fighting...she studied too as per her father's order but continued her learning of becoming a soldier...but to her bad her learning of sword fighting became known to his father...he even made her lock in the room and didn't even allowed anyone to talk to her....but she requested him to give her a chance to prove her skills...he made a 15 year old girl fight with the bestest of sword fighting team but she didn't bother about and fought gracefully and won....his father also stunned by her guts but still never allowed her to fight in public...he allowed her to learn only
Kabutar just sat beside her as to show his consoling
"Bandhu!!!" The pigeon starled with her sudden exclaim
"Kal humne ek kitaab mai paada tha ki jab bhi hume koi ichchha jld se jld Puri karni ho toh Hume ek khat likhna chahiye" she said smilingly but confusing Mr bird
"Rukko abhi samjhate.....nhi nhi...hum tumhe sidha dikhate hai...yhi rukko khi jaana maat" The quickly ran inside her room leaving the pigeon behind her
Soon She came back with a paper and an ink pot and started writing something on the paper...she rolled up the paper with a thread and make it wear it to the Kabutar (kya likha ye mujhe bhi nhi pta😗)
"Bandhu ye dedo" She said smilingly to the pigeon but the confusion on pigeon's face made her smile fade and clear that he didn't understand anything
"Bandhu ye chithi bass uss shaks ko de do Jo iske sabse jyada layak hai...humne kitab mai pada tha ki kabutar bhot hi samajh dar hote hai aur niyati ke asli sandesh vhaak (post man) bhi... isiliye ye khaat jise bhi milega ho sakta hai vhi humare dil ki khwaish Puri karde" She said smilingly
The pigeon got the idea she is trying to give him and flew away in the world of infinity with a letter unknown from it's correct address to be given on
"Haseena!!!!" The lady shouted making her trance break
"Aayee Bai" Haseena too said in the same voice... she steal a one last glance towards the direction of her bandhu before decending off the tarace

Mewar, Rajasthan
A man in his late 20s...his white complexion,his black orbs,his height as 6'1 is just perfect to make any girl woo on him...he was actually looking like a Greek god due to his features but his forehead was having crease of tension....one more thing was missing...his smile....the biggest beauty of anyone's face was missing on his face
he was having a hard time of trying hard to hold a sword in his hand...he tried tried and tried...but the result - he won't able to
Tiredly he sat on floor with a frown on his face... throwing the sword aside he picked up the rabbit from the floor who was watching him continuously practicing...he too was sad as of him about the unsuccessfulness of his friend
"Mitr dekho naa hum kitna pryas kar rhe hai parantu ek lekhak ko toh sirf Kalam pakadna ata hai naa aur bhasa hume talwar pakad wane par tule hai...arre agar humse kisi yudh par pustak likhne ko kha hota toh hum abhi ek pher(3hours) mai likh dete...parantu swayam yudh karna asambhav hai humare liye" He said to his friend with a frown who was carefully listening to his blabbering
"Vhi toh dikkat hai tumhari Anubhav...ki tum yuvraj ho kar bhi apne riyasat ke liye kuch kar nhi sakte" A loud stern voice came from his behind making Anubhav and his rabbit Shiver to their core
"Margye..." Anubhav mumered under his breath
He got up from the floor and left the little rabbit indicating him to run away from there right now as now his father's anger would be on him too...but the little rabbit just stayed there knowing his presence for his friend
"Haste hai hum par log ki Mewar rajya ke Maharajao ke Maharaj Digvijaya Singh ka beta... Yuvraj Anubhav Singh ko yudh kala ka 'y' bhi nhi aata...jante ho galti tumhari nhi humari hi hai jo humne tumhe bachpan Mai talwar ki jagah kalam di...tumhe vo karne Diya jisme tumhari dilchaspi thi....arre yuvraj ho tum Anubhav kuch toh sharam karo...udhar humari Puri sena Jaipur Rajya ke Maharaj Shekhawat Mallik se laad rhi hai aur tum yha talwar pakadne mai bhi vifal ho rhe ho" Digvijaya said angrily to him
"Bhasa hum yudh kala sikhne ki koshish kar rhe hai...par nhi hai hum ek yodha... bhagwan ne hume yudh mai haathi godho par baithkar yudh karne ki kala nhi balki Shanti se kisi samundar kinare baithne ki kala di hai...aur aap humari kala ka tilaskar karke humara nhi swayam bhagwan ka tilaskar kar rhe hai" Anubhav argued
"BSS!!!!! ANUBHAV AAB EK SHABD NHI...NHI TOH HUM BHUL JAYENGE KI TUM HUMARE PUTR HO" Digvijaya shouted on top of his lungs making him stubble backwards
"Ek pher hai tumhare paas ya toh iss yudh ko jitne ka samadhan nikalo yaa fir yudh mai dushman rajya ko parast karne ke liye tayar ho jao... aur agar tumne inn dono mai se kisi ek chiz ko nhi chuna toh apne iss khargosh aur likhne ki kala ko bhul jana" with this he walked out of the sword practicing room leaving a shocked Anubhav
He was now in a great deliema to choose what...he couldn't able to practice and become a fighter or soldier neither has any plan surrounding his mind...he was just blank...not knowing what to do...but he was sure for one thing that he has to save his little friend and his passion of writing and became a writer in any of the situation
From the very childhood when he studied by a guru ji of his Rajya,he was really fond of books and literature...he started writing some essays for the things surrounding him...as he grew up then he wrote some poetries...he even made them sell in neighbouring countries without coming his name in between...but God knows how his name went out and because of that his father has listen the worst things...from that day his father make him went to go for practicing sword fighting but he always end up bunking and ignoring that
His chain of thoughts were broken as the sound entered in his ears...he looked down to find his friend but couldn't...a sudden fear of losing his friend took place in his heart...he followed the source of sound...he went out with that near a small lake which is not far from the sword practicing room
As he went there he saw the rabbit running after a pigeon continuously to catch him...he was jumping and running all around while the pigeon got scared and flying as fast as possible
He chuckled seeing them but then noticed something hanging on pigeon's neck...he assumed it as a letter but couldn't sure
He towards them and stopped the rabbit from running...he picked him up in his hands but the rabbit wiggled from his grip...he keep saying his little friend to stay calm and not to catch the bird
Seeing the rabbit not following him,the pigeon sat on a distance to relax due to continueous flying...the rabbit still giving him a angry glare doesn't bother him
Anubhav ordered his friend to stay away from the pigeon and left him in the other direction as of pigeon...he then went towards pigeon and firmly hold it his hands
He untie the letter from his neck and as soon as he left the pigeon he again flew in the world of infinity
He untie the thread around the letter and unrolled it carefully...he knew it is not correct to read someone's letter but his excitement of reading made him do
He read the letter and a smile wrapped his lips in them....

If someone is feeling bad after reading about the dishonour of the skill of writing then it was in India in ancient times....still in many places it is believed that writing, dancing, singing, drawing,etc skills is not made for men's...so it was normal at that time
