" I am recently pregnant.... " she said and that's the last thing I wanted to hear from her. Birds who don't deserve little ones are blessed with kids and look at me who is desperate to have a kid with none.
" And I was looking for a nest where I can lay my eggs and than go away freely, after some search I found a nest where I can lay my eggs, The raven mother is pregnant and I have counted the days our due day is same...." she continued, I don't understand which root she is taking but something tells me whatever she is going to suggest is going to be illegal.
" Usually I break the eggs of the mother but this time for you I can bring back one egg and than you can have an heir and your husband wouldn't marry again. " she said , really what else was I expecting from her ? , she wants an reply what should I say ?
" But thats not right....this is cheating and I don't want to cheat my husband. " I told her and she scoffed and told " Than do whatever you want...attended his wedding and see them lie here in this nest enjoying there honeymoon while you will mourn with broken heart. " she said and the old fear of being left alone crept back in me , no I have to do something.
" But what if others knows about it ? And what about the poor mother she will be so devastated when she knows the truth and if she comes to know her kid is with me and come here to take him ? " I asked her many questions at once , its not I entertain the idea its just I want to know what's going on in her mind right now.
" Don't talk like foolish... who will know about it other than you and me ? , and I was going to smash those eggs anyway so it would be better for them as they will get life.....and what life we are talking about ?....they will be prince or princess of their community, And us laying eggs on others nest is so common why would anyone question you about it ? If you have problem raising others kids than...." she didn't finished her sentence but I know what she means by that so I told " Kids are gods gift I am not worried to raise them even if they are not mine. " She nodded like she was expecting the same answer.
" What about your mate ? He knows you are pregnant ? " I asked her , she rolled her eyes and told " He left within a week of our relationship and I have fresh news that yesterday he got another bird , he is not interested in me or this kids at all , but than its so natural in our community " she said but her eyes looks sad like she had enough of the shit that's going on around her.
" I have read a poem once and from that time I never feel sad on such occasions , the poem goes like this , its written by Alexander vasiliu -
' Dear woman ,
if you want to heal your broken heart ,
always remind yourself.
Don't beg for love
Don't beg for love
Don't beg for love
Don't beg for love
Don't beg for love
love comes as a gift." And that has made my heart relaxed , I don't beg for love anymore so doesn't get hurt. Its a sweet feeling , a genuine gift of god not something which can be traded for an heir. " she said , my days are so bad that I am taking love advice's from her. But she is right....its just I still don't want to understand the truth, I don't want to face the fact that in name of heir Asher wants to marry someone else. I so very want to believe that he is doing it for his kingdom and not for himself.
" What's the plan ? " I asked her , she was silent for sometimes than told " You will tell asher that you had a dream where you saw ' lord Saturn ' and he told you too take an early bath with Asher and send three days with you here and if you do as he said than you will be blessed with a kid. you stay on fifth day declare you are pregnant and on seventh day I will deliver the egg to you and you will become mother. " she said well her plan is not that bad but its full of risks.
" There is no ' or ' , ' maybe' or' let me think ' , its decision time ....you decide what you want. For your happiness you are the one who have to take action no one else will do that for you , you have to fight your own wars. " she said , she is not wrong its just I don't want to cheat my Asher and moreover me who is so desperate to have a kid can imagine the condition of the mother who will lose her kids.
" If you start thinking about everyone than you will be the one in loss. If your husband can think of marrying again for kid you can do whatever you want , at least you will not leave him like he is planning to leave you. " she said and for the first time in my life I think she is right , if I want my life than I have to fight for it myself.
" we were known for love , for our togetherness and where life has made me stand Zinna....you should be happy to see me in misery why are you helping me ? " I asked her still curious.
" well , I am happy for your misfortune but I told you I have my intentions ...my aims for helping you is that in return you will help me . Moreover its not fun to fight with weak opponent so I am making you strong so that we can fight equally. " she said .
" Well then I agree , soon we will start the plan and do as you say. " I told her and she nodded , I have to convince Asher but first send priest away or he will create problem in the work . Hope everything goes well and I get my Asher back .
