Aishwarya pov
One thing that i know now is that, I'm stuck in this time and place now. I don't know how to go back or how i came here . But now that I'm here, i need to survive. I know nothing about this place or people here.
It's been almost two days since i came here . I wrote everything on a paper with the so called ink and kalam.
Mza to aaya shi btau to.. the kalam thing was crazy.
The day i came here was the sabe day i died in another world. And i transmigrated while she fell in the water.
" Wait!" I stood up as i realised
" Does this mean i can travel back if i fell into the lake again?" I muttered to myself
Can i risk it? What if I can't go back? These people will actually think I'm crazy... What do i do?
" Ahh ..forget it .. I'll just give it a try ..i want to meet my family"
" Tripti" i called
She came inside and i told her ..i want to visit the lake that i fell into. She hesitates a bit , but i made her take me there.
I walked with her to there... Okay ..ready to die ! Full proof plan h aaj to.
It was a beautiful sight.. a huge lake surrounded by the palace around it. It was late afternoon. There were no clocks here but, one could judge by the positon of sun in the sky and the shadow theory if you know.
I looked around .. there were not many guards in a close distance. I just need to send Tripti away .
I sat down on a couch near there. " Tripti ... I'm hungry , can you bring something to eat here"
She hesitated a bit to leave me alone but then left bowing .
I took the perfect timing and opportunity after looking around and making sure nobody was watching.
I stood on the edge looking down..the water was deep and a bit down from that wall i was standing on. i took a deep breath.
" Bhagwan ji... Apne pass Mt bula lena. Ghar bhej dena please"
I close my eyes tightly and jumped. I heard someone yelling my name but it was a muffled voice as i sank deeper in the water.
The water was deeper than i thought . I was scared it wasn't working . I don't think i will travel back. Will i die in both worlds like this?
I felt water filling my mouth and nose. I can't breath . It feels so helpless and lonely dying like this. I don't want to die . I want to meet my family. Please someone save me.
I closed my eyes as i felt my body going numb. My mind going dizzy and body going weak.
Suddenly, i felt a strong arm snake my waist and pulling me to the light on the surface .
I inhaled deeply gasping and panting holding tightly on the huge and sturdy shoulder of my saviour.
He held me by my waist holding my close to his chest.
I opened my eyes panting heavily to look at who saved me. It was no other than my previous saviour, Ranjeet
" Are you crazyy!" He yelled on the top of his lungs , his grip tightening on my waist like his fingers will dig in my skin .
" What the hell were you thinking ! " He yelled
My eyes teared up.. the thought if dying again...that fear of death , not meeting my family , this mess , the feeling of helplessness and the relief of getting a second chance to live my life again overwhelmed me to blur any rational thoughts at that moment
I wrapped my arms around his neck hiding my face in his neck crying my heart out .
" I don't want to die.. i ...i was so scared...i ...i hate this feeling...i .." i cried more
I felt him freeze for a bit then wrapping his arms tightly around my waist pulling me impossibly closer
I cried in his arms for I don't know how long ...then he helped me get out water and made me sit on the couch where i was sitting before .
Tripti panicked when she saw me all wet and trembling. But i told her not to tell anyone.
Tripti wrapped a shawl around me. As i started to leave with her.
" Wait" a low yet commanding voice stopped me.
I turned to Ranjeet " i need to talk to you . Sit." He ordered
I look at him for a bit then nod and sit down. He had Tripti leave. So now it was just us two siting opposite to each other .
He leaned forward putting his elbows on his knees looking intensely with his cold gaze at me with all due seriousness. His hair wet and a few strands falling over his forehead making him look even more handsome.
" Why did you do it?" He asked in a low yet roaring tone
I lower my head clutching the shawl tightly . Should i tell him? Will he believe me? What if he killed me thinking i killed the previous princess? No... I can't tell him... He'll kill me for sure. He don't even know me ..why would he even care about me..
" I slipped ..." I spoke in a low voice barely above a whisper
" Aishwarya! ...truth!" He commanded
I bite my lower lip .. clenching my fists in my lap..i stay silent
" Answer me dammittt!" I could see he was getting impatient
" I wanted to see how it feels to be a fish...i mean die.. i mean how it feels to die" i made a shitty excuse for god sake
I sighed brushing his hair back in frustration and controlling his anger .
" Last chance." He growled
" Why do you care so much? It's none of your business . And why am i even trying to explain to you?! It's my life .. it's my choice what i do with it!" I yell in frustration and anger. I was already feeling a lot with all this and now he was making things eveb harder for me
I stood up and started walking angrily to my chanber. When suddenly he grabbed my arm and in one swift move swirled me around and pinned me to the nearby wall with his one hand on the wall near my head and other holding my arm tightly almost painfully
I gasped and winced as my back hit the wall a bit hardly . I look up at him, his eyes filled with a dangerous intensity of anger and something I can't really explain.
He moved his face closer to mine looking intensely in my eyes
" Hmari baat ka jawab do , Aishwarya" he spoke in a low tet dangerous tone
I hold his gaze .. with the same intensity " i already did" i spoke in a a low yet fierce voice
His grip on my arm grew tighter " Why the heck you are trying to die dammit! What is wrong with you?! What if you died today! What would i--" he yelled in anger
I thin my eyebrows" what would you?"
He left my hand , turned away and left leaving me there confused..
I watch him leave for a bit . Then walked to my chamber. I took a warm bath and decided to have my dinner in the chamber as i had no energy today to pretend to be the princess.
I already had my share of sh*t for today. I can't deal with anything anymore.
I laid on the bed with darkness in my room. Just the moonlight coming in the room from the window.
Tears slippef my eyes as my family , my friends , their love for me was eating me alive.
It was so lonely here. Nobody to trust or call mine. Everyday i wake with the fear of dying , the disgust of being the culprit of torturing people, taking their blames , the warriness of own family members.
I fell asleep while thinking and crying about my family and this mess....
