WHEN LOVE BATTLES WITH DEATH [#Missiondesi]

#14 WILL YOU CROSS YOUR CONFINES FOR ME?

Amitis received the medicine from Cyrus and he sensed something in her smile which created confusion in his mind.

He tried to figure out the message which her eyes tried to convey him.

At that Instant she bowed down and went away swiftly towards her palace.

While walking towards her palace Amitis (in her mind)"Now I'm running away from the person whom I love the most. I'm running away from him because just now I went to him without my knowledge. Just then I realized the thing which I had done then. I got afraid since I knew that if I look at him for some more time I'm sure that I will lose my control and I would be confessing my love to him so I left him getting the medicine which he preserved for me. 

I love him not because he was a prince but because of what he is in his heart. He just took away my heart with him with his care and protection. But I'm aware of who am I and who he was. A girl of warrior clan was not supposed to even get attracted towards the Royal blood. We are meant to protect them. We are meant to sacrifice our life for them but we are not supposed to share our life with them. Even after knowing these entire things I'm losing myself in him. I don't want to look back because I knew that he had left that place. He was Cyrus, the future king of Menidian Empire. I know that he will be forgetting me soon. I'm not beautiful as a princess and more than that I didn't belong to the royal blood. I don't know anything about my next chance to see his face but I knew the fact he didn't belong to me." Tears started to roll from her eyes.

Cyrus felt the vacant space again in his heart. He stood there for some more time and he told Arsama, "She left. Let's go" saying he started to Perspolis in Arsama.

Cyrus the nature admirer hated the cool breeze and the beautiful nature which reminded him that he has been missing her.

When Amitis entered the palace she saw Artunis standing with Bessus beside the garden.

It seemed that they were seriously discussing about something.

On seeing Amitis, Artunis rushed towards her and from that very instant he started to inquire about the Yudush war.

Amitis knew that her brother would be asking everything about Cyrus and the war except her wellness and the situations she faced in the battle.

Amitis missed the care of Cyrus she wished that she could have stayed more days with him.

Amitis told everything about the war but she never opened up anything about Cyrus and about the days which she had spent with him.

Artunis became happy and Amitis left to her room.

Everything in the palace seemed strange to her.

She preserved the medicine as well as the attire of Cyrus. It seemed like holy things for her.

Sleep refused to enter her eyes. She used to sit near the window of her room watching the woods where Cyrus left her. Her mind was filled with his thoughts  every day and night.

The breeze of Pairidaeza which she used to admire the most seemed irritating her.

Days passed. Even after the arrival of Amitis, the palace was left without her sweet singing, the pots of the palace remained without their charming flowers, the incense pot sat idle, she disappointed the threads and the painting brush which has been waiting for being used by her. Her garden kept on waiting for her to water them.

But every evening, Amitis used to take Pirus to the woods and she used to stay sometime at the place where Cyrus left her before.

She used to eat on time with Artunis and she tried her best to hide everything from him since she didn't wanted Artunis to find out the change in her. But Artunis in turn noticed some changes in her but he didn't inquire anything to her since he felt that it was because of the weariness in her.
