28 ~ Shattered

"na chhedo hume
Hum sataye hue hai"

"Mrinal"

hearing her name Her wet eyelashes slowly looked up  meeting her beautiful vision in mirror , she is looking extremely beautiful in bridal look , her beautiful eyes which have no emotions except pain and tears which has denied to leak out who is gathered in her corner of eyes.

She is looking beautiful but thinner too as she stopped taking care of herself , people have noticed her being locked inside of room not uttering  a word , sadness on her face. No one know the reason they think it's all because she is getting married and it's normal to get sad.

Maids was adoring her beauty talking  How lucky is Mrinal she is going to be the queen of such a big and powerful kingdom.

"You all can go" they all heard and saw saima entering the room , they nodded and walked out of the room.

Mrinal stood from her seat seeing saima as after that incident fatima didn't allowed saima to meet mrinal , saima hugged mrinal tightly.

"forgive me i was not there for you when you needed me most" she cried , "shh its not your fault" saima broke the hug and cupped mrinal face "you have to run from there my mother did this because she never loved you my Princess she did this because she think because of queen she lost her brother but i will not let it happen "

"You run from there I have sent a letter to the prince, he will be here at any time , we only have half hour took out all of this i will take your place " she was blabbering non Stop , leaving her saima took out some simple cloth and coins for mrinal and started packing them.

"You are already married what if they caught you my father will kill you" saima wiped her tears "i don't care about my life"

"Your husband?"
"he will marry again" saima spoke

"Soldiers are standing in the window so that I do not run away father don't trust me like he used to do" she spoke making saima to stop.

" Father's name will be tarnished by running away, people will abuse the prince and talk about my character they will kill your small lovely family my love is only going to give pain to thousand lives saima then nothing but if i stopped today i can save something "

"And what about you? Huh!? Can't you see yourself? What you have done with yourself? How you will survive? My mother did a sin let me correct it please run away from there" mrinal smiled seeing saima love for her she hugged her.

"Like you want to correct your mother mistake like that only i want to win my father trust again. I love father a lot and today not any lover not Mrinal not but i am a princes of mand kingdom whose reputation is on my hand i am a daughter of my father "

"Your father didn't even call Princess Chandni and Radha " saima cried

"Radha will kill me after knowing this that how much i cried in my marriage and spoilt my makeup" she chuckled

As he filled the sindoor (vermilion) on her hair tear dropped from her eyes falling on her bangles). Her eyes was silent but who knows what's going inside. She screamed , cried inside but didn't let to know about it to anyone , her body became numb , cold she was able to feel her body Shivering and a pain on her chest. Her heart beat beating fast making every voice to block except the sound of her heart.

"Vivaah sampan hua"

Her decision saved the lives , fatima blood was boiling as she was expecting something else that's why only she sent saima to mrinal and this time she didn't stopped saima letter to abhiman too but he didn't came nor mrinal ran.

The feeling that she is married to someone else not to him , she is someone wife now it's a sin to think about prince is painful which she want to share with someone but that someone is now a stranger for her.

Tears leaks down from her eyes her veil helped her to hide her tears.

They took the blessings of everyone , her father kept hand on her head. "Its good you didn't did any stupidity now remember you are not my daughter but someone's wife , not a princess of mandrajya but a queen of ajanta kingdom you are pride of ajanta kingdom don't do something like your mother which will take your life as well as make your new family to look down with Shame" she didn't expect this but what she was expecting? To hear some good words!? his words was painful like a arrow on her heart which is killing her slowly. She nodded making him to look at her with warning look.

She buried her dreams with her own hands only to save the honor of her kingdom today her father made her  the honor of some other state, so from now she have to do this again and again for respect of her kingdom

She saved the lives , honour everything by shattering her own dreams , she buried her love her hope her fantasy with her own hand , she completed the duty as a princess but now she is a queen she have to bury her wishes again and again.

She was sitting on bed fiddling her lehnga , room was completely decorated as its there wedding night. The memory of her leaving her kingdom was torturing her , her father words , saima , radha , chandni prince abhiman every one thought was running in head giving her headache. Her eyes have became red , swollen , puffy due to crying. Her eyes looked around and the maids words echoed on her Ears.

"She is princess of such a small kingdom but see her luck she will rule on most powerful kingdom"

" Her beauty made King to fall for her "

And a lot! Her thoughts broke when she felt a touch on her hands which was wrapped around his knees , she quickly jerked her hand and she shifted little back .

"Ghabraiye nahi"

"don't panic"

But she didn't heard , he noticed her chest going up and down breathing heavily her hand fisting her dress and her uncomfort.
Rajvendra weakly smiled "you don't need to be afraid i will not harm you , you can sleep here i can't go to other room as people will take it wrong so can we share bed?" He asked.

She didn't answered not knowing what to do , when he didn't got any answer he smiled understanding
"We have to go to ram temple at morning sleep well" saying this he walked toward the couch.
