Pratap: I have decided that we will no longer belong to the royal community, I will leave it and we live like commoners
Malika and Lakshmi gasped, Omkara and Arnav smiled, Jhanvi and Arjun stood shocked and so did Shivaay as Anika stared shocked at Pratap for a moment then ran and hugged him
Anika: thank you, thank you so much
Pratap smiled and patted on her back but his smile lessened when Anika cried on his shoulder, he felt her tears flow on it and didn't feel her smile that was under her tears
Pratap: my child, don't cry, please
Anika smiled: I am crying because I am happy, you don't know what you have gifted me today, you don't know.
Shivaay looked at Anika sadly then he looked down with a faint frown as Pratap pulled Anika to his arms and made her sit on his lap and hugged her to his chest and patted on her back, faintly and nonstop
Arjun: uncle, how can...how can you take such a decision?
Malika: NO, No this can't happen
Pratap's smile vanished and he frowned faintly as Anika looked at Malika
Malika: you can't do this to us Prince, you can't, we can't live out of the royal community, I can't be but a Princess
Hrithik looked at Malika with wide eyes as Pratap took a deep breath and calmly
Pratap: you can my dear, you already did today and it was fine
Malika: no no, it won't be fine, the royal community is our protection, the community makes us feel safe, it is our safety.
Pratap: the community is also our greatest danger, Malika
Malika shook her head: I don't accept this decision I don't
Pratap smiled: it is alright I don't expect from you to accept it right away
Malika cried: please prince, please think again, don't do this to me
Arnav: Malika...
Pratap: my decision is final Malika
Malika sobbed: NO, no I can't accept it, I will stand in front of it, I will do anything to make this doesn't happen
Pratap frowned: Malika, you have crossed your limits
Lakshmi: Malika...
Arjun angrily: Malika is right, this decision can't be accepted (then he said in kinder tone) whatever made you take such a decision we can change it, we can do anything but we can't leave the community
Anika looked at Pratap terrified and he felt this in the squeeze of her hand on his arm, he said with a frown
Pratap frowned: my decision is final
Malika with teary eyes: prince please, if you don't want to sit on the throne, Surbhi can sit or me
Pratap frowned: DON'T SPEAK ANYMORE MALIKA, I AM LOSING MY TEMPER
Malika sobbed: I have to speak, even if you throw me in the dungeon it won't be worse than being a commoner, why you want to do this to me Prince, I have the right to know why you sentenced me with such fate, why?
Pratap: MALIKA SHUT UP
Malika sobbed: I won't shut up; I need to know, what is the great reason that made you choose to make us all suffer?
Pratap: TO SAVE MY SON, I CAN'T TAKE THIS PAIN AGAIN, I CAN'T, I LOST ONE SON AND I WONT LOSE THE OTHER
Shivaay flinched and looked at Pratap shocked and Anika covered her lips then hugged Pratap
