Eye Contact:
Meeting one eyes’ can be more romantic, dangerous scary or peace that can spread
over. It is been belief that truth cannot be hidden when look at someone eyes.
Sita and Rama’s
eyes met. Rama was speechless when he first met Sita’s eye.. Pin-drop silence
between them . Thousands words conveyed. Sita’s sisters were speechless having
Ram dharsan. The world was silent for a moment. The Ramayana born!
Note: In the below story,
just character’s name are inspired from Ramayana, not the story! Perhaps the
mokkai story you are going to read.. And I do not have any intention to spoil the greatness of Ramayana….Hence,please do not compare or set the expectations before reading.. π
********************************
As a routine, after
dinner, Ram writes and sleep in the same cot, once the sleeps takes him. The
cot, the kaithu Kattil (Hand
Knitted Wooden Single Size Cot) which is in the balcony. Ram, after completing his Agriculture
Engineering. settled in his village to bring a change. Along with agriculture, he
share his thoughts by his writing.
Today as usual, he sits to write.. But he is not able to write.
Sita’s glance .. It was just coming in
front of his as though she is just looking at him right now. Disturbed Ram,
looks up.. She is looking at him admiringly with a bright smile. Held up with
the beauty, he could not move his eyes from her. The shining stars are blinked
at him which makes him to feel shy and looks down. He feels that the shining
stars are teasing him for looking at their princess.. Suddenly, the street
light starts blinking as though it gets to know something suspicious is
happening.. Suddenly a dark covers him , as the street light completely stops
blinking.. The darkness covers the entire place expects his and acknowledging that
she is looking at him. He looks up again.. She is still with the same lovely smile..

The mosquitoes
starts filling him with their unique sound.. he looks at the nearby garbage
that lies end of his street.. Umm.. Wish Modi can come look n here to
understand how far swatch bharath’s reached.. Not able to go through the
mosquitoes biting, he steps into his house..
The house is filled
with candle lights. With candle light , he picks the mosquito coil and steps
outside… The mosquito coil helped to get out of the bites. With relief, lying
on the cot , facing her, Sita’s face he can see in the moon. He remembered, Sita
glanced at him when he was passing by field. Her beauty seemed as if Lord
Brahma had presented the whole world’s beauty before his eyes. Analam
nokinaan avalum nokinaal….
The neem tree waves
a breeze.. It makes him drowsy.. With her thoughts and tiredness sleep catches
him ..
He wakes up as the
brightest rays hit him.. The sun rays stared at him. Yesterday, there was another eyes that stared
at these both, Ravana on a envy flame!
Analam
nokinaan avalum nokinaal..villanum nokinaan ( He looked, she looked, villain
looked)..An epic starts..
