Every day is so long but the nights are so short. It is that much shorter that in a blink of eyes, she see the sun rising from the mountains near her home.
Every day, she wait just for the stars to talk with.
It is already 9 years when everyone left her and Sriti came to this beautiful region that is full of mountains and rivers.
When she first came to this place she was scared of this loneliness. But after passing many years with them. Now she love this place so much. This place is like her previous home, a safe home. These trees, mountains, rivers everything is now like her guardian. She loves to play with the flowers, the trees, the abscission leafs, the fruits, the wind, the clouds, the moon, and every thing that belongs to her dream home.
In one night, a star from the sky came to this earth. It was so beautiful and shiny when she saw it from near. The star started talking with Sriti. It was like she found again that family which she lost 9 years ago. No one was there to haunt her in dark and also in the presence of light. No one is there to snatch away her sleeps. No one can harm her in the protection of nature.
This form of nature helped her, protect her from being hurted.
The Stars said to her in every night that she don't have to worry about anything. She can live there without any intervention.
And again after passing 50 years she was at peace thinking though she never got the chance to interact with the outer world, still she was the happiest person in the world. Though she never got a chance to smell the scents of money, power and fame, still she was the most luckiest person in the world as she got everything in her small world. She was grateful to the nature for giving her everything without any conditions, without any problems... Not like them who tried to snatch her life and make her an orphan for the whole life.
