The Birth Of The Seventeenth

We meet again

Niel POV

I can hear Ritz crying softly under her pillow.I regret telling her about Sylvia."Ritz?"I say,trying to comfort her."What"she says in a hoarse voice."Sorry"I say.This time she turns to face me.Her nose is red from crying and so are her eyes.Her brown eyes are so beautiful.I hate to see her cry.After all she is my wife."Why are you sorry?"She says,her voice returning."I know it's hard for you to face so much.I regret telling you about Sylvia." I say.She smiles and says'Kabhi tho pata chalta hi na(I would get to know that some day)."Her hindi has improved a lot and she knows most of the words now."Abhi toh soo jao(Please sleep now)."I say.She nods.

Ritz POV

I slept after talking with Neil.He is so comforting.'Get up.We have to go." I say to Niel,who is still sleeping."Where?"he says sleepily.I glare at him,"To Kamal's place."I say impatiently."Gussa mat ho.(don't get angry)Mujhe yaad hai(I remember)."He says.I go out of the room to help Maya.
"Maya,need any help?"she is cooking breakfast in rhe kitchen."Just make your hair."she says,smiling.I look at my self in the mirror in the nearest bathroom.I forgpt to make my hair after I woke up.Rushing up to my room,I wink at Maya who smiles.She is so not the Maya I knew.She is pretty shocked from yesterday's news.Well she has the right to behave like that I guess.I think while going up the stairs and to my r room.Neil is in the bathroom ,where the comb is kept,But luckily I have one in my bag.I comb my hair and go down.

I am sitting on the comfortable couch at Kamal's place,waiting for him to come.Soon he arrives and gestures Maya,Vivian and Niel to go out."I know you are deeply saddened by the news Niel has given you,but this is the truth."He says.I nod."And I know why you have come here.Sylvia was given a boon when she was young,which was hidden from Shehnaya She was destined to die by the hands of her sister.When the King heard about this from the Queen,he was very sad.The King prayed for two years sacrificing all that he had.The angel which had appeared in front of Shehnaya,came in front of the king.The angel blessed Sylvia with sixteen births.The girl,who should know by now is protected by the Pushpatras'.She uet does not know who you are but you both will meet on 12th of August which is 1 month from now.You have to figure out who she is and the smae goes to her.I suggest you start searching for her from now.When you meet her,The Shehnaya inside you will force you to be with her.Sylvia wants Dehradun to be hers.And most important she stays in Dehradun."He says.How does he speak so much without stopping for a second?I wonder."So I should not worry until 16 October,right"I ask."I guess.You should leave now."I turn to leave and just as I am about to open the door,He calls after me"And please take this with you."Je is holding a green necklace in his hand"The girl will also be wearing a necklace similar to this.This will help you recognize the girl."I thank him and head out.

On the way home I explain everything to Niel,Maya and Vivian.
