chapter 30

1990's ,

Adarsh : maharani !

Shodasi devi : rastrakuta is the kingdom from which priyamavadha hails. Her father is the former king. Now the capital of that kingdom is fully barren. The villages are under vallabha's control. The whole royal lineage if rastrakuta is dead. Only moksha is alive.

Adarsh : then how come my father hails from that ?

Shodasi devi : for that we need clarity about whom you are. What are you just saying ?

Mahitha : that's a long tale amma.

Mahitha narrated everything to shodasi devi.

Shodasi devi : it's unbelievable. Love is mad.

Vallabha deva : because it's a story.

Vallabha deva took out his sword and kept it against adarsh's throat.

Vallabha deva : tell the truth. Who the hell are you ?

Adarsh sighed.

Mahitha : so, you don't know anything about all these events. Then why i will hate you ?

Adarsh : princess ! I know you love me. And i love you. Please tell your brother to take of this sword.

Mahitha : vallabha !

Vallabha deva backed off.

Shodasi devi : did a guy just accepted your love in my presence mahi ?

Mahitha : yes amma.

Shodasi devi : i always knew that something is cooking between you two. So, are you guys ready for marriage ?

Mahitha : that soon ?

Shodasi devi : then when ? Will you get married after loosing your teeth and getting a walking stick ?

Adarsh : i am ready for the wedding maharani.

Shodasi devi : it's athamma ( mother-in-law )

Adarsh : yes.

Mahitha : did you agree ?

Theera : maharani ! Let's give some space to them . It's really weird this way.

Mahitha : are you spying ?

Theera : yes . Sorry princess !

Adarsh chuckled lightly by looking at mahitha's expression. When mahitha looked at him he stopped.

Everyone left giving some privacy to them.

Mahitha : So ?

Adarsh : So ?

Mahitha : speak something .

Adarsh : why did you fell in live with me ?

Mahitha : because of your determined nature. You never try to be the superior one but you'll try to be the best person. Your good heart made me fall for you.

Adarsh smiled.

Mahitha : why you love me ?

Adarsh : i don't know exactly. When i look at you i feel like the purpose of my life is for your sake.

Mahitha smiled. Mahitha walked towards adarsh. His heart beat raised up. Mahitha hugged him. He hugged her back slowly. The warmth of eachother's embrace is bliss for them. Mahitha looked into his eyes. Adarsh looked into her eyes. She placed her lips on his. Adarsh was taken aback.

6 MONTHS LATER ,

The royal palace of vijayapuri is decorated with flowers. City chitrangadha is celebrated the day like a festival. Every house is decorated with garlands and lights. Citizens are extremely happy. Today it's adarsh and mahitha's wedding. Theera and vallabha deva are completely engrossed in the preparations. Shodasi devi is helping her daughter to get ready. King mahadeva is extremely happy. He is recieving the guests. Many people are asking him about his son-in-law's identity but he said he trusts him and that is what matters for him. He didn't reveal the whole time tale.

Shodasi devi : beautiful ! I never know that i have a daughter who is this beautiful.

Mahitha : amma !!

Shodasi devi : it's a joke darling. Come lets go !

Mahitha : ok.

Mahitha walked towards the dias. She wore an elegant yellow saree with gold embedded as patterns. She is covered with jewels from top to bottom. She lifted her head up and looked at the groom. Their eyes locked for a moment. Adarsh is completely lost in her beauty. She sat beside him and soon they are bound by the holy string of destiny in their case.

Adarsh : namasthey mahitha adarsh.

Mahitha : namsthey my dear husband.

The day passed soon and even the next 1 year of their marital life. Adarsh adapted to the new life completely. He almost forgot his old life. In these 4 years he always tried to be his best as a husband and human.Mahitha is going to get crowned as the new queen on this vijayadasami.

Adarsh walked towards their chamber. He saw mahitha who is staring at the stars. He hugged her from behind. She recognised the familiar touch and held his hands.

Mahitha : how was your day ?

Adarsh : boring ! My boss didn't come to my workplace today.

Mahitha chuckled.

Adarsh : what's that gift about which you have told me ?

Mahitha moved his hands towards her stomach and smiled.

Adarsh : tell ! Why are you silent ?

Mahitha pressed his hands to her stomach slightly.

Adarsh : what's the gift mahi ? Why are you moving my palms across your stomach ?

Adarsh stopped for a second. He turned her around. She is looking at him with a smile.

Adarsh : oh my god ! Am i going to become father soon ?

Mahitha : yes !

Adarsh kissed mahitha's forehead.

Adarsh : thank you for coming into my life mahitha.

Mahitha : small correction and i should tell that. Thank you for coming into my timeline and coming into my life .

Adarsh and mahitha both chuckled.

1990's ,

Raghav rao ( adarsh's father ) : Sir ! My friend is missing. I am roaming around this police station since 4 years but no one is responding. I will take media's help now.

Police : what ? Are you threatening me ? Do you know who i am ? I am a police. I worked hard for being a police.

Raghav rao : even i worked hard to be a doctor sir. But because of you people i almost forgot my way to my clinic. Me and my wife who is pregnant is roaming all over the country to find adarsh. But no use. Even adarsh's brother is no where to be found.

A woman who is sitting in the commisoner's cabin came out.

Woman : excuse me !

Raghav looked at the woman. He is stunned. He wondered what she is doing here.

..............

Hey guys !

How's the chapter ?

Who is that woman ?

So, baby on board. We already know about the baby and her life. Will the grown baby meet her mother again ?

This chapter is a huge lapse and almost we are near to the end of flashback. Only 1 or 2 chapters are left . Most probably i will end the book in this week. Then i'll be offline for few months. Then i will write the second book ' REWRITING THE FUTURE'.

Stay tuned !
