"Dude! Let's finish here and return back. Mom and dad will be searching for us", Jai told Ram after hiking for more than two hours to find that SECRET WATERFALLS told by a shirtless long bearded guy who seems to be living there for his whole life. The brothers were on their weekend picnic with their family to Thalakona, a place in Andhrapradesh. "It should be somewhere near, Jai" said Ram trying to encourage him. "We are here again" Jai expressed his frustration as they ended up at the same place again. "I told you that isn't a correct way", Ram said with the confident tone as he now took a turn different from the one Jai suggested last time. The hike became harder for their little knees as it gets steeper confirming that they were getting higher altitude. On taking few more steps, they saw a small gorge which descends towards a cliff forming a cataract. They were rushing towards the cliff like the puppies running to hug their brother whom they haven't met for long days. But their speed replaced by a fear on nearing the cliff. "Watch out!", Jai said by grabbing one hand of Ram, "This one is higher than our school terrace". They stopped walking and decided to crawl to the edge. On reaching the edge, they had a different feeling of immense pleasure over fear which they never ever felt before. They saw people gathered near the water like ants gathering food and birds flying below them all of which made them feel like they were at the highest point of earth. Once they got up to return, they saw the brook getting denser with woods on the other side. "Secret waterfall should be inside this" said Ram as he walked towards the woods. "No Ram! It's already too late we have to go back", told Jai trying to stop Ram from going inside. "Come on, Jai. Don't you want to find that less known waterfalls?", Ram asked and resumed to go further without expecting a reply. As they went deep, they could feel the invading darkness. Taking few more steps further inside the woods, they heard a sound of rushing water which made them enthused and they started moving faster in the direction of sound. When they passed a cascade, they spotted the HIDDEN waterfall surrounded by woods which are so dense making the light rays struggle to enter. The two little souls then took their place near the pond made by the incoming water, spoke no words and felt a deep silence amid the chirping of birds and croaking of frog which they couldn't find anywhere yet.
