Anika held Pratap's arm and she walked with him through the third floor and reaching to his room, she left his hand to open the door, and when she left his hand and the door was opened, before she took his hand again, he walked in front of her.
Pratap in low tone: I know my way in my own room
And he reached by his hand to his throne then took support of the chair's hand and ascended the step then sat slowly and pressed on his bell.
Pratap in low tone: I didn't need your help and protection from Prince Hiran; I am not weak Princess Surbhi
Zaheer entered with bowed head and Anika looked at him with wide eyes.
Pratap frowned faintly: take the Princess back to the second floor and be on the Princess side wherever she goes.
Anika: I want to speak to you and have some tea with you first.
Pratap: bring me my tea Zaheer and warm lemon for the Princess, five cubes of sugar
Zaheer bowed his head and walked out closing the door behind as Anika said in low tone
Anika: I never thought that you are weak and I didn't think you were sending me away from Prince Hiran's family because you thought I am weak either, I thought that you did that because you care for me and I did that because ...
Pratap in low tone: you care for me?!
Anika looked at him for a moment then she frowned faintly and sat on the chair opposite to him
Anika: you did hurt me more than anyone ever hurt me in my whole life, and that is coming from a girl who lived almost all her life in an Orphanage and got hit by a car, you can imagine.
Pratap frowned faintly as Anika looked at him and then she nodded
Anika: I mean yes I do care for you and you do care for me too, right?
Pratap in low tone: you are the most impolite Princess this family brought to life, you misbehave and you weren't raised in a proper way, from the first moment I met you I knew that and that coming from a Man who raised Prince Omkara and think Princess Chloe the royal cat is a good Princess, so you can imagine.
Anika frowned as Pratap nodded with faint smile while stroking Mr. Pickles
Pratap in low tone: but yes I care for you, don't frown like that
Anika frown vanished and her eyes widened as he chuckled faintly but soon his chuckles faded and his smile vanished and nodded with faint frown.
Pratap in low tone: it is been too long since I cared for anyone or felt I needed someone's care and kindness (then he shook his head) it should have not happened; now we both can't do what we should do.
Anika in low tone: and what you think my care for you denying me to do?!!!
Pratap in low tone: avenging your right from me like you promised me?
Anika looked at him for a moment then she held his hand and his frown vanished and closed his fingers on her hand.
Anika: then we are fine from my side; I can care for you as much as I feel like it
Pratap smiled faintly and patted on her hand
Anika: now what you think your care for me denying you to do?!!
Pratap smile vanished didn't answer, looked away with faint frown and took his hand from hers
Anika: and why Prince Hiran is here and why you feel you need to protect me from him? you have to tell me, you know very well that not ten Guards or doors will be able to hold me or protect me, but I promise you I will take care of myself and be careful if you made me understand what I am against and I won't tell anyone anything
