Long time ago, there was a king and a queen living in a forest. One day, the queen wanted to go for a vacation outside the forest. So the queen asked the king - "O King! I have been wanting to ask you something - can we go somewhere outside this forest? Like a trip?" The king replies - "To where, my queen?" "Anywhere is fine, my King! I cannot stay here no more"  "Well, my dear queen, to be honest, it will be the same - the same mountains, same waterfalls - you can't feel any difference." Disappointed, the queen walks away and reaches the nearby lake. There, she saw her reflection - not only that, she saw the sky! The Queen runs back to the King and asks - "Can we visit the sky?" "my dear queen, to be honest, the sky is very plain, what will be there to see in sky, my queen?" "Till we reach there, we can't tell for sure right?" replies the queen.  "But how can we travel in sky? We don't have any floo...

  It's Janaki.  Ram saw her for the first time when she came to his room.

Why did you come to my house yesterday then? You did not have any other work?" "When I have come?" "Yes, yes, right. You did not come up. Go and get freshened up."  But it is easier said than done for Ram to freshen up. He takes time these days to do even the tiniest things. His mind is left alone to take decisions as his heart is not available. The poor, broken heart is still trying to recover and reorganize.  Ram walks slowly and picks up the towel from the pile of clothes in the brown wooden chair beside his single bed.
