Aadhya Agrawal has always known to give up her dreams. Her grandparents do not like her - she is fine with it. Her uncle hates her - she is fine with that. Her parents always force her to give up on her dreams - she is fine with that. She always bel...
Aadhya was welcome by the Maharani in her bedroom. The latter made her sit on the bed, while she went towards her closet to bring something. Aadhya looked around the room. The room was just the proof of the undying love between the couple. On the wall there hung a huge picture of the Royal couple of Rajasthan, smiling and looking so in love. Just then, Maharani Laxmi entered the room and sat beside Aadhya. "Aadhya, beta, I know how the Agrawal's treated you. I am sorry if you find this intrusive but I had to do this to make sure that my future daughter-in-law and the wife of my Eklavya was capable enough to be so and what I found was nothing less than I expected. Thank you Aadhya, thank yo-" Aadhya interrupted her, "No, Maharani sa, don't than me please. In fact, I should thank you for making Eklavya, my husband." Maharani Laxmi then gave her a soft yet genuine smile and took her hands in her own wrinkled ones.
"These are our family bangles, Aadhya. I never gave them to Aadhya's mother because she was never of my consent and frankly I did not see a single trait of a future Queen in her. But you, my dear, you are so different. Do you know beta? You remind me so much of me. I was just like you, even I belonged to a middle-class family. My family always abused me. But then one-day Vanraj came and from then, he has ensured that I always smile, always! I know, Eklavya loves you. I have seen in his eyes, the same passion that I see in Vanraj's eyes for me. But if any day he mistreats you, which I know he won't, don't hesitate to come to me, please?" Aadhya gave her a firm nod. She then continued, "Women are real Queens and they should never be given anything less than they deserve, nor do they should comprise for others. Alright, enough of these talks, wear and show me these bangles."

"They look like they have again found their rightful owners once again. I know they look heavy, but you'll have to wear these always. They are a sign of you being a part of the Rathore's." Aadhya looked at her between her tears, "Thank you, Maharani sa. Thank you for accepting me into this family and Thank you for these bangles. They are so beautiful!" "You're welcome beta. I have one more request to make of you. Please call me Maa like Eklaya does. I know I have requested it of you before also, please?" "Surely Mahar- Maa." And then with a bittersweet memory, they finally went back again to join the family again.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"Fucking Finally!" Eklavya mumbled seeing Aadhya return. "Thank God you came back, bhabhi. This man here had returned back to his original cold demeanor once you departed. God knows, how you will manage your whole life with this lemon!" Kritika exclaimed. "Bhabhi, do remember me if you ever plan on leaving him here, I am always there for you." Randhir had just completed saying this when he earned a smack on his head by Eklavya. "Shut up!"
"Alright, kids! Let's have breakfast." Maharaj Vanraj exclaimed. Just on the mention of food, the Ranawat sibling duo vanished off to the dining table making others chuckle loudly. The others also proceeded towards the dining room. Everyone settled down on the table, and Aadhya was about to serve everyone when Maharaj Vanraj stopped her. "You are family, child. Sit with us and eat." Aadhya was about to convince him when she was suddenly pulled up by her wrist by Eklavya. He got up from his own chair and made Aadhya sit on his chair and proceeded to take a seat beside her. He then set up her plate and motioned her to eat. This caused the younger generation to hoot loudly and red blush to creep back again on Aadhya's cheeks. The elderly couple just sat back and smiled knowingly.The Breakfast was going smoothly when the Maharaj interrupted the table. "Aadhya, child, I want you to continue your job as usual. I have already talked with your college about the same. And they have agreed that tomorrow will be the best day for you to rejoin the faculty."Aadhya looked up thankfully at him and said, "Thank you so much, Maharaj.""Beta, it will be baba for you.""Thank you baba"
Aadhya looked towards Eklavya and he smiled softly blinking his eyes and then asked her to eat. The table again started eating, laughing and talking amongst themselves."
The entire day passed between them making memories, laughing, reminiscing, and all. Aadhya would thank the almighty every second for blessing her with such a loving family. Earlier, she always used to ask God that why was it her that her family, did not love her, but now, she was ever so grateful to Him to bless her with everyone.
And as for Eklavya, he was the happiest seeing Aadhya so joyful and merry.
This can be considered a filler chapter. I know I did not end this chapter as it should have been ended but I, unfortunately, ran out of ideas.
