Author's POV
( All the conversations are happening in Hindi)
" Aho bhagya hamare Rajkumar ,... I can't believe that you came to our small house. " A woman exclaimed cheerfully." Now can't I come to my best and only friend's house , bhabhishri ?..." Daksh replied a serene smile . Ram , who is appointed as new Rajguru of Mathura by Agni after removing previous Rajguru , felt overwhelmed that Rajkumar considers a normal Brahmin like him , his best friend.
Ram was of same age as Daksh ." No , no ,Rajkumar, I didn't mean to say anything like that..." Ram's wife Chaithra replied in fear.
Daksh chuckled lightly." Don't be scared Bhabhi-shri , I am not gonna punish you or something. Actually I came to your house , because I wanted to come from a long time and also Maharani Agni will be returning back from Hastinapur today and I don't want to see her face..." Daksh said coldly. Chaithra glanced at Ram and Ram sighed but preferred to change the topic.
" Anyways, Rajkumar-"
" It's Daksh for you!.."
" Okay , Daksh...if you don't mind then would you like to come to my house to play Holi tomorrow?...I mean , our whole colony celebrates Holi with great enthusiasm, so-"
" Ye bhi koi puchne ki baat hai !...I am gonna come !...I would like to play Holi with my Mathura's people rather than with so called Maharani !.." Daksh replied happily.
" You are welcome Rajkumar !.."Three of them turned around to see to see Ram's mother standing infront.
" Pranipaat Kaki!.."Daksh greeted and went over to touch her feet but she didn't let him.
" You should know that future Maharaj shouldn't touch anyone's feet !.."She said .
" Even If I become Maharaj , I don't think I will become so great that I will surpass your or your son's wit, Kaki. And this feet touching gesture is out of respect for you..." Daksh replied and Ram's mother smiled.
" You are raised quite well my dear.." She complimented Daksh .
" My mother was murdered when I was 5 , After that I was raised by Dadi Maa and Chandni Chachi !...
Her husband, my Chachu , Pratyush was also murdered and her child was also killed , after that Chachi considers me as her own child and showers so much love that I can't explain my gratitude towards her !.." Daksh said ." Hmm...And what about Maharani?... Doesn't she love you ?.." Ram's mother asked him cautiously and his eyes darkened. Deep down he also knew that Agni was the only who loved him unconditionally , but whenever he tried to accept her love , the scene of Agni murdering his mother flashed infront of his eyes , making him hate Agni , even more.
" No" Daksh replied flatly.
" That's justified!...The woman who abandoned her own child just because that child was a girl can never love someone else's child!.."She said in disgust. The reason why Agni still gets hate from Mathura's people is , a rumour is spread among the people that Agni abandoned her child because of the child's gender.
Daksh was about to say something but halted when he heard noise of anklets which created a melodious music. He never thought that he would like sound of anklets.
" Maa.." A voice came and everyone looked at the source of voice. Daksh's lips parted in awe when a perfectly sculpted face came in his view.
" Who are you ?.."Daksh blurted out unconsciously and she glanced at him and made weird face but straightened her face when the mother gave her a strict look.
" S-She is m-my sister Daksh , h-her name is Y-Yukta..." Ram interrupted with stutter.
" Sister ?...You never told me that you have a sister also !..."Daksh said in disbelief, without taking his eyes off Yukta and Yukta glared at him fearlessly.
