Don’t know how Mr Valentine loved. But I know a love story, my mother said as a bedtime story, told by her mother and so on. This story came up from generations together. A love story of a King and Queen, More than their royalty they are Mr He and Mrs She.
Coming to the story, it was Once upon a time, there lived a Mr He and Mrs He. Unfortunately one day his father ordered Him to go to forest for 14 years. Knowing that she came with him. Even though his father didn’t ask her to leave.
He asked him to stay in the castle. She deliberately rejected it.
She couldn’t leave him. She loved him so much.
His brother started with them.
Three of them went to the forest. Her birth was a miraculous one not from the womb. She was adopted by a king. She was brought up in a royal family. Still, l she didn’t get depressed when they went to the forest. Just because he was with her.
Years passed. They were in the forest.
Not a single moment she thought of her kingdom, her luxuries in the castle. Same is the case with him.
Days passed.
He and She were delightful. Because they have each other.
Again on an unfortunate day, a demon took her away when he and his brother was not around.
The demon wanted to marry her.
Demon took her beyond an ocean, to demon’s house and kept her in his backyard
When he came back, she was not there. His heart skipped a beat.
He checked all surrounding. She was not there.
His voice echoed her name. There was no reply.
He didn’t know where she went. His agony was limitless.
Almost he went into a condition, which he asked every tree and animal to show where she went.
In her absence, he didn’t want to eat or sleep. It was too heart-wrenching to look at lotus flowers because it reminded him of her eyes.
He cursed two birds which are cuddling each other. It reminded of her. He didn’t want to live without her. He wanted to fire up the world
Her situation is not even better.
She cried her heart out. No one was there to listen. The demon gave her 1 year to time to marry him.
Every day demon came and pressurized daily and gave her all the luxuries, in fact, more than she had, she simply rejected and chanted his name.
He accumulated some army, fought with Demon, and killed the Demon.
After the war, she is eagerly waiting to meet him. As a King, he doesn’t want to take back his wife who was there in Demon’s custody. He said she was free to go anywhere. (This is story happened million years back. There was no concept of Divorce)
She was devastated.
She doesn’t want to live even after she saw him.
She jumped into the fire in front of him & his whole army. Everyone in the army was crying their heart out. No one cared enough to question their leader. They were devoted to him.
No one was ready to stop her. Her decision was unstoppable.
She jumped into the fire.
Fire God along with her came out, and handed her to him and said “Don’t doubt her! She is as pure as I am”
He cried out of joy “I know!! I know her heart. But as a leader to these millions of army, there should be no solider should question me afterwards. I need to talk like this. It is my duty!! It doesn’t mean I doubt you”.
They lived happily ever after is the last word for every story. But for them, the story continued.
They happily came back to their kingdom after exile.
He crowned as King. She became Queen. He was a brilliant King. People loved him to the core.
Another unfortunate day, a citizen in their kingdom commented on her. As a king, He ordered her to leave the kingdom.
He said this as a king, but as a husband of her, he doesn’t want to lose her again. She was pregnant at that time.
With a heavy heart, she left the kingdom and went into the forest. A sage named Valmiki saved her.
She gave birth to twin baby boys.
As a king, He has an opportunity to marry again. But he didn’t.
She being a rejected wife, she has the right to blame him. But she didn’t.
She loved him until her last breath.
He loved her till his last breath.
When I heard this story tears rolled out of my eyes. They didn’t have a happy ending. Still today, anyone wants to quote about best lovers, they talk about them.
His name is RAM
Her name is SEETHA.
