Because of yesterday discussion, Kalo announce a special meeting on the main hall at 11 am. Reason behind that meeting knew only few students and they didn't even tell anything for anyone.

"My pleasure seen you all again after exam."

Kalo started the speech.

"After finishing the exam this is a new term for everyone. We know that no one couldn't fulfil to go to see the Nurki river. So, we gave you another chance. We have chosen 4 of the students from every section who got over 90% from their major subjects. Those 16 students getting part time jobs from the mountain that they could get experience. And they are getting permission to enter the mountain after 3pm to 8 pm."

When they heard from Kalo, students got excited about their new chance and the part time job. Even they are paying for them. Luna announce the result those who got the 2nd chance. She started from the environment section.

Raki was the highest in every section. As a junior she got 1st place and everyone happy about her victory including Kalo also clap for her.

"Excellent Raki."

Everyone congratulates her, but she didn't want to stand up in front of everyone even she felt uncomfortable. After finishing Luna's duty, Kalo get up from the chair again.

"From tomorrow you all can work for the mountain."

The meeting was end. Everyone left the hall. Those who got the chance to work at the mountain became more excited and they try to talk about that every time. However, that happiness didn't have on the few students.

"Why can't they tell the truth?"

Today's meeting creates Raki's angrier. Not only her three of the other students also felt same. On the other day, their lectures started on the morning and in the evening all the 16 students left to do their part time jobs.

Medical students got a new uniform with a name tag that mountain people can identify. Luna took them to the same place that they came before. They saw Kalo is waiting until them arrive.

"Let's start."

Kalo said while giving a smile, but they didn't say a word. 1st they left to the patient room. When they enter the room, they felt like a ghost cave. Everyone became afraid to enter the room.

"Is this the room?"

Chanchala asked surprisingly, because that room not suet to say a room.

"Can we see the patient."

Prabuddhi asked politely and Kalo gave the permission. Chanchala and Prabuddhi went to see the patient and Raki and Aruth check the room everywhere. In the room they couldn't see any furniture or at least a flower vase. Only thing there was a bed that patient is sleeping and a chair and a table. That's the things that room belong. However, there was 3 servants for take care of her.

"Can I know about some information about her."

Raki turn to the Kalo to ask about her. Aruth also got ready with a note book and a pen.

"What you want to know. Her name is Arohi. She became like this, because she fell from the steps 15 years ago. From that day she didn't even talking and lying on this bed."

Raki didn't surprise after hearing Kalo's information.

"Arohi…."

Aruth only wrote that name that Raki said.

"Not those things. I want to know about some private things."

Kalo couldn't give a proper answer for Raki's 2nd question.

"I know little about that, but I know she could draw well. Everyone know she was the most innocent girl in this mountain."

Raki couldn't get much information from him.

"Can I know about something more at least from her parents."

Kalo became mute, because he couldn't give correct answer for that.

"I don't think."

He whispers those words, but Raki heard clearly.

"If you think that we should know something please tell us. I want to know about everything, since childhood. I'm feeling that the situation isn't good."

When he heard that Kalo felt fear.

"What's that mean?"

"Yes, Chuttie is right."

Chanchala explain the situation clearly.

"That treatment happened in the past to this girl is wrong. Those all the treatments now turn into poison. We should be hurry. We must start our treatment quickly. Can you give permission to stay with her whole day tomorrow?"

These students knew that patient is in a serious situation. Whatever they're doing they have to hurry. Since then Kalo thought to help them and he gave the permission.

"I want to know one more thing. Can you tell me anyone that I can know about Arohi? Whole story."

Kalo knew the answer for the last question that Raki asked from him.

"Marnitha knows everything about Arohi. She is the main servant since she was a child. You can ask anything about her. Marnitha you can tell everything to this girl."

Children got surprise after hearing those words from Kalo.

"I'm giving Arohi for you all. Try to treat her as soon."

Before leaving the room that was the request from Kalo. No one replied for his request. After he left the room, everyone became robot. They fast their work and Chanchala and Prabuddhi again check Arohi. Unexpectedly, Prabuddhi check the plate that on the table. There was some meal, she assumes that was Arohi's meal.

"Wait"

"Why?"

"What's this?"

Chanchala surprised after seen that.

"Why?"

Prabuddhi couldn't understood his action.

"Talk to Raki."

He didn't say directly, he just wanted to confirm his confusion. Aruth and Raki ask many questions from Marnitha that they could get an answer what they should do next.

"Can you tell us what Arohi most like to do?"

She opens her memory to answer the question. According to her information she most like to do painting like Kalo master said. And also, they got some new information about her.

• She is extremely tidy girl from every position

• She most loving to gather pretty and sweet-scent flowers (her regular routine)

• When she receives an empty space she most like to remain under the sunlight to love.

• Every kids from the mountain indeed like her, because with them she run via the wind as an entertaining.

• She absolutely love to help innocent people specially below caste.

Raki obtained a clear illustrated about her, but not enough as she demand.

"Why her parents doesn't experience anything about her? They're not alive?"

Raki asked her question without stumble, because she feels a curies that how come her parents doesn't know about her life. After admit to her question, Marnitha' eyes full dressed with tears. Raki identified that undoubtedly.

"No they are still alive, but both of them broken up from each other and wed another one. Both have other marriage children. Arohi is their 1st marriage kid, but…."

Thus, she started Arohi's pathetic life tragedy. When Arohi is young they got divorce. After divorce, within one month each other get into another wedding. Arohi didn't admire about their separate, but she mentioned nothing. And again she was truly unhappy for their second marriage. Still she stood silent and didn't mentioned anything. Both parents doesn't love about their 1st marriage child, because she doesn't have a particular talent. Every mountain child, especially main tribal' children have their own individual talent.

"she could simply produce design performance. That's all"

Marnitha said that. That's developed into a reason for Arohi's condition. From her birth she doesn't carried a certain gift that could get through in the mountain, So that reason she became a worthless for her parents.

"Her mother is awfully harsh to her. Once she scold very awkwardly from that day she became like this. I mean fell down from the stare."

"What are the names she using to blame her?"

"Everything like …. Rotten, you spoil my life, rotten luck"

That became very shocked to accept to her conversations. Both became terribly unsettled after listen to her story. Raki understood her wound isn't in outside it's in-side her soul. They have to first heal in-side. Chanchala stayed silent until their talk end.

"Thank you so much. If I require anything else I'll let you know."

Both thanks for the servant to support them. They learned considerable knowledge about Arohi's history. Raki was delighted about her answers.

"How is Arohi?"

Thus she turn into Chanchala and Prabuddhi, because they're the one who went through the Arohi physically.

"Her nerves slowly getting dry, but we can work out something about that. It's not a big issue.

"Surely she could communicate and walk in the future, but. ..."

"but .... She doesn't need that. aha…."

"Yes."

Chanchala and Prabuddhi explain the position clearly. Without examine Raki gave the answer, no one amazed, because she is professional in these kind of situation. She carries a massive talent for this field.

They realized this since long while ago.

"Chuttie you have to look at something."

Chanchala suddenly call Raki and grabbed her in to the inside of Arohi's room. Aruth and Prabuddhi also accompanied them. Chanchala took the meal plate and handed over it to Raki's hand.

"I notice something awry with this meal, but I'm not clear."

Raki took the supper and sniff it and without explaining anything she call to the helper.

"Marnitha can you please come inside."

Three of them became curies what's going on. Raki didn't point out anything, because she needed to prove about something.

"Yes, madam."

"Marnitha can you please tell me who is making Arohi's lunch?"

"It's getting from mountain. Her mother's house preparing."

"Okay thanks. You can leave now."

"What's going on?"

"This lunch is poison, but not enough. This mushroom called destroying Angels and also Amanita species. This could only found from dark jungle."

Raki explain Chanchala curies.

"How you learn this?"

"From a book."

When the History and Language exam held Raki didn't studied those subjects. She only studied rare books referred to medicine.

"Why they applied only slight amount?"

Aruth got an enormous question referring to talk.

"When you add small amount take sometimes to die. Before the body death sometime there could be liver and kidney failure include vomiting, fever, convulsions, diarrhea,"

"Yes, that other servant mention those symptoms. We couldn't detect."

"That means someone need to kill this girl."

Aruth conclude the discussion. He felt sorry about her.

"Yes her mother. Let's inform this to Kalo principle. And still, don't count on anybody and don't miss any small information since now."

Raki gave the final settlement. To take the report they picked up the lunch to a bag.

"I never felt this will move to an attractive part. "We didn't meet with Arohi yet."

Suddenly Raki remind them and sat on the bed near to her. Aruth also sat behind Raki and put his lap top of Arohi's lap. Prabuddhi and Chanchala also sat near to her.

"OMG …. Arohi don't you have a nose. You didn't even have bath for a few months."

Chanchala stared to joke first.

"That's correct. Tomorrow we have to throw into river to clean her."

Aruth also hook up with him and started to joke. Raki knew that she is in angry after listen to their jokes.

"If you continue like this they'll easily take you as a joke. So better to get well soon okay."

Raki said while keeping her hand. And also she introduce every member to her.

"We are now leaving and also we are arriving tomorrow. Tomorrow will be your turning stage. If you figure out I need not remain and better to die. Those opinions, you have to get off now. Otherwise tomorrow you will endure into a huge issue. Okay"

Raki said those words very toughly, because she noticed her thoughts completely. Arohi felt Raki's cool hand. She couldn't bear her pain anymore. She touched Raki's hand very hard and tears fell from her eyes. Everyone noticed her tears, they seemed sorry about her.

"I know you can hear well, you can see. Problem is in your legs. That's it. Nothing else. From tomorrow you have to learn how live your life cheerfully. If you doesn't know that we'll direct you."

Raki's word create her scream. She never hoped to listen like these words from anyone. Her colleagues also felt glad of her comments. They also went through that they could do this task perfectly.

Everyone came outside. When they ready to go Kalo and Pruthvi came in-front of them. Raki gave a note to him and asked him to arrange tomorrow.

"Could you please help us to change her room and could you please hide that position from others."

"Why is that?"

"I'll take a prove tomorrow. You'll not believe if I said now. At the moment please can you look at that. Please."

Kalo agree with her. He couldn't say no to her, but he didn't asked why, because Raki explanation became quick than his speech.

"And also I want these list and I gave another list to Marnitha. Please tell her to do that."

Raki explain everything clearly and nonstop. So that reason, Kalo couldn't asked anything. They moved the place after leaving behind a note to the Kalo.

"What this girl going to do."

"Let's see what she is doing."

Pruthvi and Kalo read the list that she gave. After seen that they were surprised, because it includes

• Small room that properly sunlight enter inside and it should be secret for outsiders

• Equipment for drawing

• Room should décor according to her like

"Why they want these things."

"Let's see what's happening. No one asked these things before."

Marnitha listen to their discussion and moved in-front of them.

"Beg your pardon my lord."

"Tell me Marnitha."

"I think today' team will treat our Arohi princess, because that doctor she has a small hair. She told something to princess. Now she is crying."

Servant explain the place that took place recently. Both enter the room to see what's happening. After long time, she is crying like she couldn't stop and still whimper.

"It's okay daughter. Don't cry"

Pruthvi try to consulate her, but Marnitha stop him.

"My lord begs your pardon. That doctor said don't stop her. She needs to release her misery."

They turned out side, because they couldn't do anything for her sad.
