“A soul on a bike,” that’s how Dhanno was described. This resonates with my perception of Dhanno as well. Love knows no bounds; indeed, I am in love with a bike.
Dhanno whispered, “Since childhood, you’ve only seen one side of me as a biker. Aren’t you tired of it?”
Let’s do something new today. The Almighty has blessed me with divine power; I can exit the bike’s body and take on a fairy’s appearance. You don’t need to be scared; we’ll still be together. You can ride the bike, and I’ll walk with you, following like your shadow.
As I was trying to comprehend and imagine, a fairy, aka Dhanno, started walking with me while I pedaled, creating a scene reminiscent of a romantic movie. Dhanno appeared in multiple fairy forms.
I couldn’t resist, “Dhanno, stop this act now; I am genuinely scared.”
“Scared? For what?”
“You know, Dhanno, my good wife. If she finds me here, I’ll be in trouble.”
“Come on, I’m a fairy, not a common girl. Human eyes won’t be able to see me; our love bonding is so strong that only you can see me.”
“Is it so?”
“Then why do I need to ride a bike? I can walk with you now, holding your hands.”
“It seems you are in such a haste; just now, you were scared, but now you can’t control yourself, preferring to leave the bike and walk with me. Remember, we met only because of your love for the bike, and now you want to leave it alone.Yes, that’s true. A man is always a man.”
You might think I’m mischievous, but let me tell you the true story. This is the age of Generative AI, I asked my Bing to create a picture, and my text prompt was:
“A bicycle and a lover, going on a bridge by the lake.”
Computer generated four pictures. Every picture has a bike and a loving couple. I thought Dhanno left the bike’s soul and appeared as a fairy.
“Love is an endless mystery, for it has nothing else to explain it.”
Rabindranath Tagore
Khalique
