The Warrior

Part 42

Momentous globules of emotions bounded her so much that Lachi didn't care about her own life and was all ready to walk in the night to advise Lotiya of the army's attack. Her mind repetitively fighting with the fact that what so ever happens she just needs to save him. This attack won't be lesser, undoubtedly taking his life...

Apparently she needs to watch out for her every move out of the house, taking extra careful steps to reach him as fast as she could. Covering herself with an old black sheet and taking off the jewelry to avoid the sounds she stepped out of the house.

Only at a little feet away she saw some shadows just on the other side of a small hut, these were none other than the army officers who guarded the outskirts of the village.

Lachi knew another way out that would lead her straight to the hill...though she didn't inform Lotiya this time but she had no other way of meeting

Lotiya was sometimes harsh with her, but she knew at the end it was their love. He loved her more than anything in the world and that was enough for the dusky girl to move her feet quickly towards the sand dunes.

Bare feet she pulled herself almost dragging towards the rocks located on the top of the hill...pleasant breeze with cold sand under her feet she clocked herself with a big black sheet so her clothes don't come in sight with the outside eyes.

Somehow stopping just outside the rocks, her eyes fell on Bigha who was deep in sleep. No one had an inkling of her standing just outside. Lachi shook her head in anger, what if their enemy comes and attacks all in the middle of the night. She wanted to hit the security guard sleeping outside. Without making any noise she sneaked inside towards the left corner that was only for Lotiya.

The smile on her lips disappeared the moment she saw him. With small tears casing her vision she stepped back. Lachi couldn't believe Lotiya and Kasturi were making physical relation, she couldn't see them anymore and rushed out of the place....

She couldn't recall when she tiredly sat on the cold sand dunes after running from the scene she saw right in front of her eyes. Lotiya never loved her, and she was going mad for him. How could he have a physical relation with another woman when he was committed to her? She cried out at her fate recalling how she fought with her own Father and thought he was wrong in accepting Lotiya. She fought with every other person in the village and helped Lotiya with food and shelter by going against her Father.

Wiping her tears she pondered all those harsh moments when he irately slapped her, physically abused her and rudely answered her back. She thought herself as the biggest fool on the earth who believed a criminal. She now understood everything...

"Saab"

Veer turned around at the edgy figure standing just two feet away. For the first time Lachi feared no one. She knew she was doing the right thing and finally saving the villages from the thug "I can take you where he is hiding"

"What makes you think I need your help?" Veer least concerned to even look at her started walking towards the other side of the bunker...

Lachi felt shattered with the cold response but she knew it was she who proudly wanted to save a criminal, someone who was responsible for the those villagers who died last month, she realized she was the culprit as well who was nourishing the bandits while they were attacking the innocent people.
