Beautiful stories from a beautiful soul.

[ruthdiaries]

Tara : I know the best places for street food. Come

Scene shift

Tara and shaktiman both were eating streetside pav bhaji. Shaktiman took one bit.

Shaktiman : hmmm this is kind of really nice. But we should eat something healthy too. I mean all this is not good for your health

Tara: oh ho what kind of a boring person insults pao bhaji in it's face. Heath is wealth , but if wealth does not comes with good taste and food then what is the use of earning.

As shaktiman opened his mouth to argue more he saw some guards coming in there direction. They both dropped the plate, and ran first in different direction , then shaktiman came back grabbed Tara's and ran.

Tara: where are we going?

Shaktiman: how would I know just run if you love your life or else sir will help us meet our ancestors.

[ruthdiaries]

While shaktiman was unwillingly following tara purely out of helplessness. Shaktiman asked

Shaktiman: Don't you think we should take your brother along with us.

Tara: hmm no no if he comes with us then who will give us updates about grumpy man's mood. There should be someone to get the doors opened for us at night. Got it.

Shaktiman : By judging how confident you are with your escape . I don't think this is your first time escaping your home.

Tara sit first I will tell you something

They both sat down on a bench outside a tea stall.

Tara emotional: A house is a place where we feel safe , loved and cared. And in my house jehu take care of me as if he is not my brother but my father. Do you know I always wanted my father to see me. But he never did so I pull some pranks here and there.

Shaktiman sad : oh that's the case.

Tara : hmm , now don't make me cry remembering all this. Let's first eat something.

[ruthdiaries]

Tara: well hey shaktiman , Are you all muscles or do you also know some magic too?

Shaktiman : I know I know.

Tara : now listen

Shaktiman became serious and listened to her carefully thinking she would say something useful and sensible. And boy he was so wrong about it.

Tara: So listen to the plan. There is no plan , we would spend the night on streets cause I own no property of my own and my friends are highly untrustworthy for the matter of fact.

Shaktiman confused: huh?

Tara: huhhh now listen at night we will sneak back home. And till the morning the matter will be cooled down and then we would pretend nothing like this ever happened. Got it.

Shaktiman shook his head in refusal.

Tara : you got it now follow my lead.

[ruthdiaries]

Then they heard footsteps coming towards there room. And both of them instantly panicked.

Shaktiman joined hands and begged god: oh my god, oh my god please save me. Save me just this once and I promise I will not curse my seniors ever again not even in my dreams.

Tara walked towards him raising one hand like a goddess

Tara : tatha sthu bachhe ( wish granted my child).

Shaktiman looked at her and then back up : oh dear God I wanna die battling in wars and not because of some child's dumbness, heee heee...crying

Tara grabbed his hands and ran towards the back door: If we stand here crying any longer. Dad will send us to God to have a heart to heart conversation with him.

They ran fast and after a while stopped at the mansion's back garden. They were panting heavily.

Tara: huh that was close. We were so close in losing our lives.

Shaktiman lifted one of his eyebrows : oh really I didn't knew that.....

[ruthdiaries]

Tara went towards one of the camera's and then pulled a nearby chair climbed on it.

Tara: Now observe and learn. Now this is how you eleminate your problems smartly.

Then she went on to grabbed one of ekansh's most treasured antique piece and smashed the cctv camera with it

Shaktiman whispered to himself : wow this girl have quite some guts doing that. The antique piece was about 3 million. She is so dead, I should run fast while I have time or I will also be done for.

Tara climbed down

Tara: See problem solved

Shaktiman smiled and clapped while crying inside: Look princess if your father asks you if someone was with you in this plan you would say

Tara cut him off mid Sentence and said casually

Tara : You were with me on it.

Shaktiman head slapped himself

[ruthdiaries]

Shaktiman: hey princess I don't discuss work here and if you still wanna know ask your dad ,if he tells you.

Tara: ah leave it. So what are we studying today

Shaktiman : We will be starting by maths.

Tara made a disappointing face

Tara: Can we start with something fun.

Shaktiman: haa ha ha fun. Yeah , turn to your right and your left . Do you see those CCTv camera's.

Tara: oh so you are afraid of some camera's.

Shaktiman smiled sarcastically: No I am afraid of the eyes who are right now seeing what we are doing. And you don't need me to explain more right?

Tara: such a small matter , I can fix it in minutes

[ruthdiaries]

Scene shift Tara and shaktiman were in study room.

Shaktiman in a friendly tone : hello princess still lost in thoughts. See, if your father catches me teaching you nothing he will skin both of us alive. And after such a hearty breakfast there should be some energy.

Tara expression became serious and in a harsh tone she said: So was the money given enough for you or not.

Shaktiman narrowed his eyes : oh so you know.

Tara : that is not the answer

Shaktiman: hey kiddo I am not going to lie , even my underwears are more costly than the money she gave me.

Tara was now in shock by that reply but recovered quickly

Tara now calm: so how much do you earn

[ruthdiaries]

As shaktiman was coming inside when ekansh cornered him

Ekansh: So what are you going to do with the little pocket money you got?

Shaktiman ( dramatically): no your majesty, I am not giving my harddd earned money to you, so stop eyeing it.

Ekansh laughed a little: good

Then he looked around to check if anyone was there or not , then said

Ekansh voice got colder: I want you to take revenge from her for hurting my daughter. Make her pay with her blood.

Shaktiman looked ekansh in his eyes: Trust me she is not walking out alive. And about tara she is a very nice kid.

Ekansh : yeah we will see about that. I am warning you she is a little devil with an angel's face.

Shaktiman: oh come on.

[ruthdiaries]

Shaktiman agreed and went outside with amara

Outside

Amara toned shifted from sweet to cold : I want you to get her well behaved so she would never dare think of freedom again. Here take this money and train her to gain her powers and reach her maximum limit.

Shaktiman : If I train her to reach her maximum power it will drain her energy and can even lead her to be seriously ill. Would you like her in that state?.

Amara smirked: who cares about whether she lives or dies. All I care about is getting her powers in my hand and to rule all nations.

Anyway you do your work and I have paid you enough so don't you dare run away like the others. You know what I mean right.

Then she went inside.

Shaktiman was still standing outside amused

Shaktiman: what does she think , I am broke or what? This much money won't even be enough to buy me a pair of clothes. And well well I am not here to train tara but to protect her from vicious people like you. Let's see who will win...

[ruthdiaries]

As they seperated

Tara gulped hard and forced a smile but her eyes remained hollow with fear.

Tara's mom : hey , I am queen of imaria , Amara.

Shaktiman was suspicious of her , cause ekansh has once asked him to go through her background and what he found was not some pure good personality.

He knew exactly what all she have done, who all she have killed. And all this act he have seen this his entire life , but he played along.

With a bright smile and killing instinct inside, shaktiman greeted her.

Shaktiman: hello mam , I am Tara's new teacher.

Amara with a fake smile: I want to talk to you about tara can we go somewhere else to talk about her.

Shaktiman raised an eyebrow and then looked at tara who have closed her eyes shut in fear.

[ruthdiaries]

Then shaktiman said in a dramatic tone

Shaktiman: oh so princess you , Are you a man eating monster.

Tara said while going with the flow : absolutely right , now give me my pasta.

That's when a beautiful lady walked in she was in her fortis, with kind eyes and sweet voice .

But other than that nothing was sweet about her.

As soon as tara saw her face tara's heart started beating fast, her eyes started to fill with tears.

Lady: oh baby , Did you miss your mother. She hugged her

Tara didn't reply and didn't hug her back. She was shaking violently in her arms.

Her mother whispered : don't do that or if anyone suspects me here , you won't be able to walk or talk for the rest of the month. Choice is all your my baby.

[ruthdiaries]

Ekansh trying to save face from further embarrassment said

Ekansh : I have some work to do , I won't be accompanying you for the breakfast.

Tara clapped her hands with a wide smile on her face : good

Shaktiman stopped her : calm down my mother or you wanna take us both down with you. He was now begging

Scene shift

They were all sitting on the dinning table.

When the servants served the food, pasta with garlic bread.

Then shaktiman stood up disappointed lecturing tara about her wrong food choices and how these food can upset her stomach.

Tara shouted : stooop, and now you say I speak too much.

Shaktiman: In my watch you are not eating this junk princess, or best you will skip breakfast. It helps in digestion. (Saying for the matter of fact).

Jehu joined his hand in front of him: please don't do this brother, let her eat anything she want or she will eat us alive with zero mercy.

[ruthdiaries]

Then tara and jehu laughed and then they all went to sleep in their rooms

Next day

Tara came downstairs still sleepy and ready to roast anyone in sight. And as always ekansh was her first victim

Tara: grumpy man , you drink that bitter gourd juice daily ,no wonder your tongue is always sharp and bitter.

Ekansh spilled the juice right out of his mouth, and started coughing

Ekansh: excuse me

Tara : you are excused

Shaktiman rushed to her side,

Shaktiman said (with a pleading smile) :have some decency he is our king, say good morning atleast.

Tara : oh yeah good morning, good morning, now where is my breakfast I am hungry.

Shaktiman: you cut your nose as much as you want but don't drag me with you, princess.

[ruthdiaries]

Jehu didn't reply to that and continued with his sleep.

Then when he woke up the next time shaktiman was also sleeping, then he looked up at the watch and said in a sleepy tone

Jehu: tara go to sleep beta , or else dark circles will cover your eyes. And also kids who don't sleep on time never grows tall in height.

Tara thought for a few seconds and then

Tara: okey , but you will have to listen the full story first thing tomorrow morning

Jehu: yes yes

Tara: meow wala promise ( cat promise)

Jehu : cat promise.

Then he got up and woked shaktiman,

Shaktiman woke up scared wohhoo , then said

Shaktiman: is it morning already.

[ruthdiaries]

Tara my stomach is soo full.

Ekansh: I don't care but, you will not be leaving the dinning room until everything in your plate is finished.

So ofcourse Tara started walking round the table

Tara: jehu do you know what happened today

Jehu: hmm what?

As those words left his mouth ,he immediately regretted saying it.

Then Tara started telling him everything about her day.

After 1 and half hour tara was still talking and jehu was half sleeping occasionally waking and say ohh really that's great.

Then shaktiman said to jehu in a low tone how do you stop her , it is as if she has a recording tape in her mouth. Do you tape her mouth or tie her up.

Jehu: none , nothing in this world can stop her from talking

Shaktiman: is she naturally like this or have you conducted some experiment on her which failed turning her into this.

[ruthdiaries]

Shaktiman: oh ,that great.

Ekansh then said if you are all done with you conversation come for the dinner.

They all sat at the dinner table.

Shaktiman: your highness I am actually full. I won't be able to join the dinner.

Ekansh: still sit where you are.

Shaktiman nodded

Then he leaned towards tara you just had food , you must be full too.

Tara: Who said that? I am really hungry I did so much walking after that , the food is all digested.

Shaktiman mouth fell open: what?

As ekansh finished his food tara was still on her first roti.

[ruthdiaries]

Tara : aah aah it hurt slow it down or you will year my ear off.

Shaktiman gently put her down

Tara: so how do you both know each other?

Jehu: he was my teacher, I learned alot from him.

Before any of them can say more ekansh entered the room.

Ekansh: so how do you like the new teacher I prepared for you.

Tara: okayish, tolerable.

Shaktiman looked at her with wide eyes as she insulted him.

Just then jehu whispered to him in his ear if she says tolerable that means good.
