Mahal

..♡28♡..

Sakshi is looking at her mom who is walking completely engaged in deep thoughts.
" maa" she said but no answer came, after meeting guruji so many thoughts are eating her brain, so she said a bit louder,
" maa..!" Which made Roopali came back to reality.
She stared at her, " maa, I have so many doubts, you thought to get Piyali married!
Have you spoken with her?" Sakshi enquired, but Roopali nodded in no and kept walking.
" maa, please stop" Sakshi stopped her mom and made her turn to face her.
" are you hiding something maa?" She asked straightly looking into her mom's eyes.
Roopali also stared back with same confidence.
" I need to know, what guruji is talking, I don't understand anything.
What you know about Piyali? What danger? And especially whats the bond you both were talking? I want my answers, please maa tell me, otherwise I can't handle the pressure building up inside me!" Sakshi said everything in one go and sighed deeply.

" Piyali is like my daughter and I have her responsibility, I always want her good.
And regarding guruji's words it's none of your concern, first we have to send Piyali away from Mahal, and have to save her" Roopali said sternly and walked further.

Sakshi who is very determined to get answer from her mom, stopped her again coming in her way, which Irritated her, " what had gotten into you girl!", Roopali scoffed.
" why you suddenly decided her to get marry? And I know you are hiding something, what is it?"Sakshi questioned.
Roopali huffed and sat on a massive broken tree branch, which is laying beside.
She signed her daughter to come near which she did immediately.
" what is it maa, tell me please" she requested.
" Piyali need to move on, she have her life, she can't stay with us her entire life.
It is my responsibility to ensure her happiness and safety" Roopali said emphasizing the word safety.
" but maa, that spirit in the Mahal?
Guruji said it is no harm for us, but it can be danger to Piyali, also why he said Piyali is bought to mahal for a purpose, what is it, why you didnt asked him further?" She expressed her doubt, Roopali replied massaging her knees, " if he meant to say he would had said it before, but guruji didn't revealed the purpose, he just asked us to send Piyali away, for her safety which is more important now."
" but why guruji said you know some truth, when you mentioned about Piyali's marriage, and you said something which I totally not understand? Some bond like that"

Roopali stopped her work and stared at Sakshi.
" I think we have to go, it's getting late" she said and stood up to escape situation.
Sakshi stooped her again, " maa, please maa you've to answer me, don't hide I want to know please.
If Piyali is your daughter she is my friend, I have the right to know everything tell me otherwise, I won't come home" She warned her mom stubbornly.

Roopali understood Her daughter is not gonna listen to her, so she decided to say.
" listen, but you should not share it with anyone, anyone means anyone, promise me" she asked, Sakshi held her maa hand and said,
" promise, I won't say anything to anyone"
Roopali felt relieved and said,
" Piyali knows everything "
" what everything?" Sakshi frowned in confusion.

Mahal:

Mrinali Shrieked at top of her lungs, she find Piyali stood there like a statue.
" are you mad, who asked you to come here?
I was scared, you mad girl!" She yelled at Piyali who is staring at her without blinking.

" I'm talking with you can't you hear?" She yelled snapping her fingers infront of her face.
But Piyali didn't budged,
" darling, go and break it, set me free "
Those words echoed in her ears.
Piyali not moving her head just titled her eyeballs from one end to other in search of something.
She scanned the entire room like that, which caused Mrinali confused.
" what are you looking, come let's go." She scoffed and limped but find Piyali stood there like that.
