26. She Forgives and she forgives not.

Arjun ~

I have not prayed in a long time and one of those reasons for me to stop was Vani, the woman who first made me believe that love was all I needed and then she became the very reason for me to stop believing at all in anyone but myself but right now, in this moment, if there is a god listening to me, I want all of Siya's emotions. I want to feel what she is feeling so that I can fix this because she won't talk to me.

Siya, on the other hand makes me want to believe in everything that I have been against for a long time now. She makes me want to look at her and give her everything she wishes for. Her wishes have become mine now and she is unaware about it.

Vani cheated on me with my elder brother, my confidante and I lied to Siya. I did not give her the truth and honesty which she deserved and I will beg for her forgiveness every single day for the rest of my life if I have to, to earn it.

I was going to tell her the whole truth tonight and I was prepared to be hated by her but this is not how I wanted things to turn out. She deserved my moment of honesty, not Vani's taunts.

" Arjun." I heard mom call out for me and I turned around to face her.

" Come with me." She said but before I could ask her to leave me alone for a while, she held my hand and started walking towards the Throne Room.

" Mom what is it?" I asked her as she made me sit on the throne and stood by me.

" You are the King Arjun, our king and Siya is heartbroken and betrayed because of all of us. I know she will not forgive us and ideally, she shouldn't but right now, and if she wishes to be alone, let her be. I am going to go to her and beg her to forgive her parents first and then forgive us because her relationship with her family is about to get ruined because of us. But you, my son, have to be strong like never before right now. I know you loathe Vani but no matter what, don't let her get to Siya's head." She told me as a tear escaped her eye.

" Stop crying, mom. My wife is hurting because of me and there is no way I am going to let her go through it alone despite being the reason for her being here in the very first place. I need you to do one thing. Keep Vani away from Siya when I am not around, not because I don't trust Siya to hold her ground but because I don't think I want to deal with Vani who will be thoroughly humiliated once Siya is done with her." I asked her, standing up and she nodded her head.

" Your Dad is with Siya right now, bringing her dinner. You come with me." She asked, keeping a hand on my head and pulling me in for a hug.

" Everything will turn out to be just fine, Arjun. Trust me." Her words, bringing some amount of comfort to me were the ones I wanted to trust because I was here, barely hanging by a thread.

Siya ~

" Why couldn't I get myself away from him when he leaned in to kiss me?" I asked myself, pulling the comforter back to my face, groaning. I absolutely hated this feeling!

" Why did they all have to hide the truth from me? Not that I could do anything about it! Then why hide?" Was the second question I found myself asking.

" Why am I talking to myself when I could be going home and screaming at my family?" I threw myself out of the bed again and decided to get ready to go back home and honestly just eat their ears off but a knock on the door stopped me.

" It's open." I replied and found Dad walking in with a plate of dinner in his hands.

" I am not hungry Dad." I told him, turning away from him. He betrayed me too! He did not tell me the truth despite of all the ice-cream we steal together from the kitchens.
