Found You, Netyakali.
"Pranam Chhoto Mahip, it's a pleasure to finally have you here." The Maharaja descends down the stairs with folded hands and the brightest smile he has ever shown.
Vidur stands up from the couch and nods his head in acknowledgment. He spent the last few days contemplating on what he should do and searching for a particular obsidian eyed beauty throughout the village. He couldn't find her anywhere but he is not ready to give up. Hence he decided, while there is still time, he should inform the Maharaja about what he has decided. He cannot marry his daughter, he has his eyes set on someone else.
"I have informed my men. Mrinalini will be coming down within a few minutes sir." The Maharaja informs taking a seat opposite to Vidur's.
"I am here to talk about something important Maharaja. You didn't need to call your daughter." Vidur says.
"No no. That's not an issue. You'll get time to think about your decision and about her, she has no choice. My decision is all that matters. She has to see you either way, she wants it or not. She is going to belong to you after all." Maharaja explains. Vidur furrows his eyebrows and decides he can never like this man even if he wants to.
"Whatever. That's not what I was here for. I am here to talk to you about the opposite of it. See, I have been here for a few days now and I...." Vidur's word gets interrupted by a voice, a voice he could now recognize anywhere.
"Babamoshai, you asked for my presence?" The hypnotizing voice utters and Vidur's heart skips a beat. He stands up instinctively and his mind immediately goes back to that day,
"Is that so? Okay. My name is.... Netyakali."
His back is facing the stairs, hence he knows the woman cannot see him yet. But it's not possible, how is this voice so similar to hers? He furrows his eyebrows and stands still.
"Come Mrinalini, here, meet the Chhoto Mahip, Vidur Acharya. He is the only son of our Mahipal." The Maharaja utters but Vidur could hardly process his words anymore, his heart is beating faster than usual. Taking a deep breath he clenches his fists and turns around. The very moment his eyes land on the woman standing there he sees her obsidian eyes widening in recognition. A huge mischievous smile spreads across his face.
She truly is one of a kind, he thinks to himself.
He very knowingly moves forward and stands right infront of her, then looking straight into her eyes he says,
"Nice to meet you.....Mrinalini."
The irritation on her face becomes visible as she silently mumbles things to herself. He just caught her red handed. Her mischief has been uncovered, she certainly isn't happy about it and seeing her this miserable Vidur tries really hard to stifle his laughter but that's when the Maharaja's words ring a different kind of bell in his mind and they don't seem as disgusting as he found it earlier,
"She is going to belong to you after all."
Vidur takes a deep breath looking at her face and decides she ceratainly will belong to him, he'll make sure of that. He keeps looking at Mrinalini as he utters the inevitable,
"Finalize everything Maharaja, I am marrying your daughter by the end of this month."
And then he inclines his face to hers, whispering,
"Found you, Netyakali."
She looks at him with her eyes so wide that people will think she has seen something horrifying but Vidur mistakes it as one of her childish antics. Unaware of the fact that his one sudden decision has just thrown the world upside down for her.
