They both started walking towards Ashar's chamber with some workers following behind.
"Ashar "
She called him
"Hmm"
"Aapka Mahal bahut sundar hai."
(Your palace is beautiful)
"Shukriya. Lekin ab ye aapka bhi hai Meera."
(Thank you. But this is yours as well)
She looked down and didn't say anything
He took her hand in his and pulled her towards him
They reached his chamber and the helpers arranged all the things and went away.
"Aap aaram farmaiye. Hume kuch kaam hai"
(You should rest. I have some work)
He said and went away. Meera sat on the huge bed sighing. His empire was beautiful, the architecture was amazing.
This was her new life. She felt a little better after meeting his mother. She was so sweet but his aunt surely didn't like her.
She could make that out form her gestures. Maybe because she was from Hindustan, Meera thought.
She was busy in her thoughts when an attendant came inside with a big plate in her hand.
"Malika, aapko bhook lagi hogi na. Liyiye nosh farmaiye."
(Malika you must be hungry. Please have this)
She kept the plate infront of her. Meera looked down and saw chicken.
"Hum ye sab nahi khate"
(I don't eat this food)
"You....oh god I'm sorry Malika I'll bring something else"
She went out to bring something vegetarian.
Just then Niharika came in with slightly red cheeks.
"Kya hua hai tumhe. Aaj kal jab bhi tumhe dekho tum ajeeb sa bartav karti ho."
(What happened to you. You are behaving wierd these days)
"Vo hum...kuch batayenge to gussa toh nahi hongi na tum"
(If I'll tell you something, promise me you'll not get mad"
"Nahi..ab bataogi bhi"
(No, now tell me)
"Vo-"
(I-)
"Ye lijiye Malika aapka khana"
(Here is your food Malika)
The same attendant came inside with some curry and rice.
"Dhanyawaad."
(Thank you)
"Aaye niharika hum aapko aapka kamra dikhate hain"
(Come niharika I'll show you your room)
They both went away while she silently ate her food.
After finishing it she washed her hands and came back to the bed just wanting to rest.
Kabul is really far away form Hindustan. "When I will go back to meet my family it will take me atleast 3 months to come back." She thought.
1 month for going then 1 months of staying there and then 1 month for coming back.
She was busy in her calculations when she heard someone coming inside.
