SHERA’S SECRET AND TORMENTED TREK
Shera came running to the village, Wasai, and with his all capabilities of persuasion tried to convince Maruti Dwarkanak’s father to come with him. Maruti was confused about why Shera was restless, shedding tears and pulling his Dhoti (loose white cloth worn below the waist). After many attempts, finally, Maruti understood Shera’s intention that he wanted to take him somewhere.
Maruti picked up his guard stick and unleashed Chitya the horse, mounted it over, and whispered the name of the horse in Marathi, ‘Chitya chaal, ‘Shera Sobaat chaal’ (Chitya, let’s go with Shera).
Then a loud neigh immediately followed by an alarming growl echoed as the furious animal’s leap started to venture as if they were to reach some distant place where their master had a serious business.
It seemed as if Shera led the expedition; his muscles rippled violently as he raced. Perhaps for the first time in history a dog had outraced a horse. It reminds me of the famous race between a rabbit and a turtle. A while later Shera turned his face and looked back as if he wanted to confirm why Chitya is powerless and unable to match him or follow nearer to attend to an emergency.
Maruti rode for a while and understood that Shera is taking him to a mountainous piece of land that he had recently owned. Maruti focused on the path while piercing through the wild wind. His face was not his as some tufts of hair were torn around his face obscuring his vision.
His cheeks struggled. His head throbbed. However, his mind was occupied with the thought of his only son, Dwarkanak, who left the hut as the day dawned with the crimson Sun on the horizon. Excited like the flares of forest fire Dwarkanak developed a strong desire to set his feet on the beautiful piece of land.
However, destiny had something else in store for him. He had not the least clue that he wouldn’t be able to return home to his beautiful wife and his lovely young son whose smiles turned him crazy and he would be ready to give the world for those. Could that love of Dwarkanak be divided? Maybe, maybe not.
“Why is Shera so excited and anxious? Is there anything Shera wants me to witness? Where is he leading me? Is there anything that I must...
