Aadhya woke up early that day, to see herself in the same position as the day before. Entangled with Eklavya and with her head comfortably on his chest. Looking up, she almost got a heart attack. Eklavya was looking down at her through his sleepy eyes. He looked so cute then, with some strands of his long hair falling on his forehead, and his almost drooping eyes, he just looked so unlike "the Eklavya Ved Rathore".   "Good morning, love. I was about to wake you up seeing that you have to get ready. Even I have to get going for the gym."


Aadhya went a little up, and kissing Eklavya's forehead, "Good morning Ved. And you won't be going anywhere! You are sleepy, so quietly sleep. Anyways, you are too fit to hit the gym."Eklavya lightly kissed Aadhya's cheeks and said, "I am flattered baby, but I will have to go, lets get up?" Aadhya nodded with a red face, an effect of both his action and his word. She mentally thought, 'leave it up to him to make me red early in the morning and he will never fail a chance, and she got up with Eklavya on the toe. Aadhya then proceeded to take out her outfit of the day and Eklavya went off somewhere, most probably to the gym she thought.

Aadhya took a bath and was dressed in a lavender salwar-kameez. She applied lipstick, put up some mascara, and was done. She was feeling ecstatic, after all, she was returning to the place where she had created her position by herself. Her makeup, her Henna-filled hands, and those royal bangles all added up to her beauty and she was looking no less than a happy new bride. After all, she was one. Eklavya returned back to the room after his shower just to see Aadhya applying her mascara. He saw the way she checked her appearance, adjusted her mangalsutra and her bangles, and then she took up the vermillion container and was about to come to search for him when he entered the room. He filled up her hairline and gently kissed her forehead. She shyly looked up at him when suddenly her face lit up, "Ved, you know! Yesterday, maa gave me these bangles. She said that these bangles are our lineage and that she saw all the good qualities of a queen in me. She also told that I should be wearing these bangles at all times to make people know that I am now a Rathore. Also, you know? She also told me to call her maa. I felt so happy at that time. Thank you, Ved, for giving me such a beautiful family." And then she looked up gratefully at him with her big doe-like eyes.


"Do not thank me Aadhya. I did nothing, all these were the result of your deservings. And as for your being a queen, you are already a queen, love. Queen of my heart."Aadhya blushed a deep red at that and then lightly hit his chest grumbling "Shut up."

Aadhya then took note of his attire and asked him, "You are going to the office?"Eklavya nodded and said, "Yes, you see, if my beautiful wife isn't there at home till the evening, what will I do without her? So, better, I'll just get going to the ...

".......Aadhya, beta, you took your tiffin, right? Eat it at the time, and do not overwork yourself. Drink water at intervals and keep yourself hydrated." Maa had just completed lecturing Aadhya. Aadhya felt her eyes welling up at this, "Thank you, maa. I'll keep all that in mind." Maa looked at her and frowned, "Why the tears?" Aadhya frantically shook her head and said, "No maa, it's just that no one earlier cared about my health, I just got overwhelmed." Maa patted her cheek lovingly to this and said, "Beta, get used to it now. Anyways, go and settle down in the car before that husband of yours coming all the way inside wondering whether I ate you up." Aadhya just chuckled at that. She bent down to touch Maa's feet to seek her blessings and went off.

".......Staffing refers to the process of finding the right employee with appropriate qualifications or experience and recruiting them to fill a position, role, or job. Through this process, organizations acquire, deploy, and retain a workforce of sufficient quantity and quality to create positive impacts on the organization's effectiveness." Aadhya had just completed her last lecture when the bell rang, signaling the end of the day. The students shuffled around and one by one left the room when Veer Shekhawat approached her. "Hello, Mam." Aadhya looked up at the one who approached her and saw Veer looking towards her, playfully. She immediately glared at him. "Veer, how many times have I told you not to call me ma'am. In fact, I should be the one addressing you as you are elder to me." Veer then gave her a pointed look and said, "Shut up, Aadhya."


Together they proceeded to go out of the campus. Aadhya wasn't quite sure whether Eklavya would be here or not and so she had not bothered to part ways with Veer.Eklavya on the other hand wanted to surprise his love, and therefore, he had been waiting for the last fifteen minutes in front of her college campus. He saw the faculty leaving one by one. Soon Aadhya came in his line of sight, he went out and was about to approach her when he noticed who was she laughing and talking with - the bastard Veer Shekhawat.



Ohho! The weather is quite tense here! Another cliffhanger after quite a long time. Also, Maa and Maharani Laxmi and Baba and Maharaj Vanraj will be used interchangeably as per convenience. Sorry for the trouble.
