Third POV 

The weather was strange today, it had suddenly started to rain heavily.
Water mixed with the light blowing wind, made the day seem even more cooler than before.

Ananya took a shuddering breath as she sat there.
The soft wind blowing around her, her arms and legs seemed to have turned in to constant place for goosebumps to reside.

The weather seemed to dis- hearten the young girl's mood even more than before. Water in her hair did nothing to stop her from being overly- annoyed about everything. She felt her head and dress to be much heavier than before.

What annoyed her in the beginning? 
Well, normally she would be happy sitting in a temple but given the circumstance she was scared and stunned. In short, not happy at all.

Why would at all she be? 
Mere minutes before things happened and now her life turned upside down.

What happened, you ask? 

Well, her best friend, Karn filled the partition of her head with Sindoor in front of the temple of Shiva and Parvati.

"Your marriage is the luckiest one." The Priest says. "Marriage here, in front of Devi Parvati, the goddess of marriage, also the temple is guarded by the Banyan tree which is a blessed sign. Plus, marriage today, on the auspicious day of Vat Savitri, is considered the marriage will be the purest and praised upon amongst mankind and gods alike for ages."

Ananya looked at the man with a blank face, it was not that she was hiding her feeling the truth was that she was not feeling anything. She was numb and the void in her heart was growing only bigger.

She turned to look at her best friend- now her husband, who sat there frozen a hand clasping her but seemingly frozen.

Karn was stubbed by his own actions, how could he do that. He has destroyed Ananya's life. His best friend's life. He loves her so much, but still hurt her.
How could he do it? What was going moments ago in his head that he did what he did. She hated him so much and this all would just add on to the fact.

his mind wandering to where and how it all began. 

-- 60 hours ago -- 

"Ananya's mother?" Raj Mata echoes' his words. "Why did you not say that before? What is your name, Lady?"

But both the lady and Prince Karn are silent.
Raj Mata Satyavati could small signs of panic in Prince Karn and so could Maha Mahim Bishma. So, what was he really hide? And why was he doing that?
