Mahal

●This update is for my loyal readers.

Dipankar's house:

Piyali became unconscious.
On waking up she didn't disclosed anything to them intially.
She got fever by the terrific incident.

Dipankar and Prabir are worried about her,
They couldn't decipherwhat happened to her.

" I don't understand dad, I tried so many times, but she is not opening her mouth" Prabir said sadly.

" may be she got reminded about her past incident, where she had went through a torture " Dipankar voiced his assumption knitting his eyebrows in worry.

Prabir nodded in denial, " no dad if it was the matter, she would had shared with us."

" after three days she have to start preparing for the responsibility.
But I think she is not ready, we should postpone it" Dipankar speak concerned.

" no dad, I'm ready" they heard and titled their heads, to find Piyali coming to them, herself engulfed in a shawl.

Prabir immediately held her, as he fear she might fall due to the weakness.
He made her sit on the chair carefully.

" I won't speak any word.
Till I add ghee and wood to Varnika's fire.
I don't want to step back in taking my responsibility" she said her decision.

" but..." Prabir tried to reason.

" please brother, I want to do it.
Let me do" she said and he looked at their father.

" okay dear, we won't stop you but tell me why you became unconscious yesterday" Dipankar asked her.

She felt skeptical to share that or not.
As she herself is having doubts about her past family.
" a spirit and also that officer Ekant are saying they are innocents.
Really my past family is innocent?
I don't know whether to trust them or not.
I'm confused, and that woman confused me even more by saying someone is waiting, and return to mahal etc.,
She didn't harmed me, and I feel she neither lied to me.
As I can feel the helplessness in her voice.
Her pleads are genuine." Her thoughts break when she felt a touch on her hand, it is Prabir.

" okay don't say, i don't force you but remember I'm there for you and no need to panic" he assured her.

" go and take rest Piyali, because you're going to be silent for a month.
Then after that you will navigate yourself into varnika forest and will take your responsibility as matriarch " Dipankar said patting her head.
Piyali smiled in return.

" after that I will solve the mystery about my past family" she resolved within her as she walked to her room.

" I can't swing between whether they are my culprits or innocents, I have to put an end to this confusion" she thought laying on her bed.

" I can't just believe,
For years I was in guilt, but now Piyali came and everything changed for us.
She is going to take her responsibility as matriach too.
Time is running so fast for us.
Isn't it?" Dipankar asked Looking at Prabir.

" indeed dad, With Piyali happiness returned to our lives again" Prabir replied.

Three days latter:

Piyali is fine and her fever is gone.
Now she is not speaking with anyone like she said.
She knows it is hard to no speak for a month, but she understood the underlying concept of this ordeal.
