3 ~ Devansh likes someone else

I reached my home and changed my clothes as soon as possible as it all felt so heavy suddenly, also because I was hungry since morning too.

I moved towards the bed after switching the lights off, covering myself with the sheet.

Lying in the quiet sanctuary of my home, I found myself lost in a whirlwind of thoughts, each one inevitably leading back to him. His presence lingered in the air like a gentle whisper, filling the room with a warmth that I couldn't shake.

I reminisced about our time together back at the palace, where every interaction with him felt like a fleeting moment of magic. My mind drifted to our first conversation, brief yet infinitely heartwarming, as he greeted me with a kindness that touched me to the core. It was quite surprising for me when he asked me to look up into his eyes and especially when he asked me to call him by his name.

I felt a little bad, because, I had an idea that something more was going to come from his side before my mother approached towards us. I could still feel the goosebumps on my skin, knowing that he had touched me for the first time physically, otherwise, I have experienced his touch way back, his touch on my skin through his eyes. Both feels the same, but the physical touch was much more electrifying.

I replayed the scene in my mind, savoring the memory of his caring gesture as he ensured that a driver accompanied my mother and me home safely. His thoughtfulness spoke volumes, revealing a depth of character that resonated with me on a profound level. He would have paused, when first time I had denied him, but no, he insisted again without any ounce of ego in his voice. The way he acknowledged my mother, is what I liked the most.

It was as if, in that brief exchange, he had unknowingly woven himself into the fabric of my thoughts, becoming a constant presence in the quiet corners.

His gaze upon me when I was leaving from the palace, those gazes surely had something else too, which I'm not clearly able to figure out, what actually was it.

As the gentle embrace of exhaustion enveloped me, I allowed myself to surrender to the tranquility of sleep. The thoughts of Devansh, like a comforting lullaby, wrapped around me, soothing my restless mind and easing me into a state of peaceful slumber.

With each breath, I felt myself drifting further away from the worries of the day, cocooned in the warmth of my dreams. And as darkness descended, carrying me away on its velvety wings, I welcomed its embrace, knowing that in the realm of dreams, I would find solace in the world of my imagination, where Devansh and I reside together as lovers, until the first light of dawn.

As the first rays of dawn gently filtered through the curtains, I stirred from my slumber, the remnants of dreams still lingering in the recesses of my mind. With a yawn, I stretched languidly, feeling the tendrils of sleep gradually release their hold on me.

Today held a special significance, for it was the day I would break my fast for Gangaur. The anticipation tingled in the air, filling me with a sense of excitement as I prepared myself for the day ahead. I was invited by Devishi, for the feast that was going to be held in the palace, only for women.
