Anu : Unhone nahi kaaya hai pitashree.(He didn't eat Dad!)(I said and bit my lip realizing I said it out loud.)

Karna smiled at her reply and said.

Karna: Chalo bacha. Unhe kuch kilake lao. Ye to apna khayal nahi rakhne wala hain. (Go, child. Make him eat and bring him back. He's not gonna take care of himself.)(He said sweetly making her nod immediately.)

She stood up and was going towards the door giving a look towards Ram indicating him to follow her.

Ram

I smiled at Dad who was doing things so that we could get some alone time.

I stood up and immediately locked my fingers with hers. She looked at our hands and bit her lips. Oh gosh, why does she have to do that every time? Damn, that's sexy.

I heard Abhi and the kids hooting making me glare at them. I silently went with her to the dining room. The silence between us was utterly comfortable. The only sound I could hear was her anklets and her clinking bangles which she can't remove till 16 days from yesterday. It's a ritual as well.

After we reached the dining room she arranged the plate that dasis bought along from the kitchen. She sat beside me after helping them to settle the plate on the table. I observed her keenly when she was doing all this. She indicated with her hands and told me to have it.

Ram: Ekanth. (Privacy) (I said indicating the dasis who immediately left the room giving us privacy.)

Anu: Kya hua? Aapne unhe kyun jaane ko kaha hain. (What happened? Why did you tell them to leave?)(She said confused.)

Soon her expression changed to shock and she gasped. I pulled her in my lap knowing exactly how nervous she was feeling right now.

Ram : Hame khilayiye na. Bhook lagi hain. (Feed me. I'm hungry.)(Eww did I just pout while saying this.)

Please I need some treatment I was behaving childish these days.

Anu: A-ap ye. (She stuttered not forming any words at my sudden action.)

What can I do? I was lovesick for like so many days. Of course, I'll be desperate for some love.

Ram : Aap hame nahi khilayenge tho ham nahi kayenge. (If you don't feed me then I'll not eat.)(I said turning my head from her.)

After some seconds I felt her nudging my shoulder making me turn towards her. She was forwarding her hand towards me with a piece of poori dipped in dal. I ate it happily. I inwardly celebrate my little victory.

She was immersed in feeding me while I was busy playing with her golden chains which were placed neatly on her chest.

I was keenly observing her choice of ornaments so that I could help her choose when required.

My peaceful time was interrupted by someone clearing their throat. I turned around clearly irritated. They don't even let me do some romance with my wife.

It was that naughty Vanar Sena again.

Abhi: Bhai! Aap bache ho kya? Aap bhabhi ki chains se khel rahe hain bilkul bacchon ki tarah. (Bhai! Are you a kid? You are playing with Bhabhi's ornaments similar to kids.)(He said making Anu struggle in my hold as she was trying to get up from my lap. )

I didn't let her get up as I knew he would tease her anyway.

Ram: If I get to know you teased your Bhabhi then I'll make sure you get a nice punishment from Maatha Subhadra. So, be a good boy and get lost. (I said making the other 6 giggle.)

Divya: Waise Bhai! Aap dono bahut ache lag rahe hain ek saath. I miss my mobile these days. If it was working properly I would have taken a lot of photos. (Anyhow, bhai! You both are looking good together....)(She said pouting.)

Ulmukh: Waise ey photo kya hota ha-(by the way what this photo means...)(He said entering inside but his voice trailed off looking at the scene.)

I was enjoying the sudden shock on Anu's face. She is pleading me with her eyes to let her go. But I was not in the mood to leave her anyway.

Ulmukh turned around not saying anything making Anu immediately get up from my lap. I left her hands with a small smile on my face. I love teasing her.

Anu: Bhai! Aap yaha? Aap ko kuch chahiye. (Bhai! You here? Do you need something?)(She said timidly going towards him.)

They both were immersed in their brother-sister talk. But My eyes got struck on Divya who was blushing looking at Ulmukh. My mouth opened wide digesting the fact that she likes Ulmukh. Is this true?

Divya

I was so immersed in the conversation with Nithya that I didn't notice someone sitting beside me.

My attention shifted towards the person beside me when I heard his heartwarming laugh. It was so melodious. Maybe I was the only one who felt it. I looked at the face of the person only to find Prince Ulmukh sitting beside me in all his glory.



I was having this weird crush on this guy from the day we landed in Dwarka after the accident.

I was so lost in his beauty that I didn't realize When Abhi started calling me. I came out of a trance when Abhi started dragging me out of the room.

We came to Bhabhi and Bhai to call them to the lounge room as Dwarka royals would leave anytime soon. I pouted at the thought Prince Ulmukh wouldn't be present.

Arey wah! They both are busy romancing. Abhi informed him of our arrival getting an irritated look from Ram Bhaiyya. I chuckled at that followed by others as well.

I was telling Bhai how much I missed my mobile when he entered taking my breath away. I never had crushes on guys in my teenage days. I was confused to even think if this was just a crush or not.

He was busy talking with his sister while I was busy checking him out. Gosh! Is he a magnet, he is attracting me towards him just like it does.

I didn't notice how crazily I was smiling towards him till I saw Ram bhaiyya giving me a shocked look.

I closed my teeth which were showing out due to my smiling widely and left for the lounge room.

Ram

Is she serious now? How can she leave just like that? I will definitely get to know if they both were having any secret relationship.

I thought and moved towards Anu who looked at me now as her brother left just now.

I came towards her and tried to hold her hand again when she moved away and said.

Anu : Aap bahut bure hain. Sabke samne hame tang kar rahe hain. Hamein jaane de. (You are so bad. You tease me in front of everyone. Let me go.)(She said and moved away.)

I stood there for a few seconds to process her reason and moved to the room door.

I was going towards the lounge room when someone bumped into me making me hold the person's waist. Only to realize it was a woman.

I left her immediately when I realized it was a woman.

Ram : kshama kijiyega. Vaise Aap kon hain devi? (I'm sorry. Who are you by the way lady?)(I asked confused as I hadn't seen her in the palace till today.)

??? : Ham Gandhar ki Rajkumari hain. Your relative Shakuni's granddaughter. Hamara naam Nisha hain. (I'm the princess of Gandhar. Your relative Shakuni's granddaughter. My name's Nisha.)(She said smirking while her hands did pranam to me.)

I just nodded at her and said pranam back as I was not at all getting any good vibes from her. Who even names their children Nisha which literally means night.

I was about to walk away from her but turned back to look at her but regretted it when I saw her smirk. Is she evil just like her grandfather? . . . . . . . . This chapter is for one of my buddies who asked me to update soon. So here it is.
