"Malika, that woman is really rude. Even after knowing your status she is still so ignorant of your power and position. If she were in Marzban, she would have known what kind of sin she has done" Frida spoke as her face flared in anger. As the maid of Malika, even they had some power among other maids in the palace and other commoners would take them seriously.
"Yes, Malika, she is being too much. What does she thinks of herself? She is just a village woman. She is not even near you yet look at her audacity, it was going beyond any limit" Nahal added.
Parisa sat on chair thinking deeply. Her maids around her started to propose their words one by one. They seemed to be clearly dissatisfied with the situation. It was not only them but Parisa herself was angry. She never lost to anyone, now that this woman seemed to be challenging which made her think differently. She wanted to push that woman down on her knees and beg to her for release. And before leaving she want it to happen.
Seeing the Malika was silent her maids also stopped talking. They looked at each other and gestured themselves to talk.
"Uh... Malika, what are you thinking?" At the Tannaz asked.
Parisa turned her head and looked at her, "didn't Shah brought that black box with him?"
"Black box?" Frida frowned, "yes, I have seen it too. He never goes anywhere without it" she nodded at the end.
"I want you to bring that box to me"
The maids looked at each other with shock. Even though they aren't aware of what kind of thing is there inside the box but they knew that thing is really important to Shah. He never leave that box if he travells outside the city.
"But Malika, the box is kept under strict watch. How can we bring it here?" Nahal asked.
Parisa frowned, "what happened? You can't even do this simple work?" She glared at them, "do you want me to punish you all?"
"Malika" they all fell on their knees, "it's our fault, please have some mercy"
Parisa rolled her eyes, "I don't know anything. By any means, I want that box in my hand by tonight"
Her maids gulped down hardly when they heard the words. They looked at each other sharing a fearful look. If they get caught stealing the box, they will be killed and if they don't do it then Malika will punish them. Their Malika may seems gentle from outside but they knows it well what kind of punishments she stores in her sleeves.
"Yes, we will try our best" they said in unison.
Hearing then Parisa felt light and her expression was calmed a little.

Gangghor Royal palace.... Rajrani Mahal.
"Buashree" Sambhara walked in with an irritated look on her face. She was frowning and pouting. She flopped on the chair heavily.
Shanti was reading a letter when Sambhara walked in. She looked up and saw the expression on her face. Frowning a little she inquired her niece.
"What happened? Why do you look so angry? You are Kunwari, does that kind of expression suits you?"
"Buashree, I am careless about it at this moment. I have more important thing to discuss with you. If this goes on then that day is not far when I will really forget my own identity and create a huge chaos in the palace"
Shanti placed the later at side and focused on her totally. "Will you first tell me what has happened? How would I solve if I don't know what's actually going on?"
