Rukaiya"! You here"!

"Yes you were so busy lately that you didn't get time for me", thus I decided squeeze time out from my schedule to spend with you"! 

That's so kind of you to do"! So how have you been"! 

"Don't be so formal Jalal even though you don't get to be with me I know", you must be aware about every happening in palace"! 

(A throaty laugh escape from his mouth, while she look toward him with amused smile. Just now he got free by court proceedings and headed towards practice arena but found Rukaiya ,there at corridor standing behind forged Window watching over soldiers practicing. And he went to her to know the reason of her being there now even though he is having light conversation with her he knew better the hidden meaning behind words but he is to into going for practice to get deeper in her words at moment. As after practice he had to visit his meeting chamber for private meeting with Sir Adhgha Sir Shahnawaz and Abdul Zaheer and Aziz).

It's been long Jalal"! I hadn't touch weapon or went for hunting as your partner"! It's been so long the state embrace by some sporty entertainment"! In the form of polo"! Or any weaponry display"! 

"I know after demise of my brother not a single tournament or celebration held in Agra"! But the situation is very critical in empire"! We can't go on for entertainment purpose yet"! More over back then you were just my cousin my friend I didn't had issue in having you as my partner but now"! 

"I am empress thus while fulfilling your subject wishes you should be thoughtful about mine"! 

Alright the idea is to tempting to resist"! Thus I gave in"! Better to go for hunting than organised lavish polo Tournament"! 

(Saying this he walked out from there towards arena for practice. Whereas Rukaiya watch him practicing for while then went back to her palace to make arrangements).

"Your grace don't get to thoughtful you might be getting curious cause of his eyes", which are same as his brother who is at service of chief Queen her highness Rukaiya Sultan"! 

(Jodha look at Bilal he seem to let her know about every person living their either it's about their likes dislikes interest and most importantly personality. Thus even without meeting much people she is familiar with them but just like her elder sister she to seem to make befit opinion after meeting the people herself. Cause their is always more in the scene than the eyes behold their is more in truth then we hear. Right now she wasn't aware her attention was getting back on the knight again and again which made Bilal khan talk about him. She gave nod to him but that didn't stopped him and Bilal khan ended up talking about him more).

"He is brave fierce and loyal but most importantly a human which many knights", lacked when it comes to loyalty "! The scar which you might noticed he didn't got on some war or assignment given by his majesty", he got that at his childhood"! He earn that ugly scar by his own brother"!...

(Jodha wasn't sure she never been this easy with others to trust them with her emotions and actions. Thus here it's wary her to hell to know Bilal khan not only get to predict her thoughts , but little bit action as and it's doesn't help her either knowing he might be torn in case of loyalty if it's ever come to choose between king and her. This happen at every royal household no matter who they work for their loyalty must lies with king. There are very few Royals who get faithful employee just for themselves their loyalty lies with them and they will stick to you no matter who they had to face later on. She shivered at the way Bilal khan tell her the tale of burn Omar Beg got her heart cried for the plight of boy who suffer from immense pain at his head of being forced down on burning coal. Just cause he took the gift come for his elder brother ,worse it's done by his brother itself how heart wrenching and what make it worse if the scar doesn't make that childhood dark memory unforgettable then the sight of his brother must always soar the wound. A warrior always took pride in exposing the scars of injury he got on Battle", but how he can exposed this damn injury which is dark dirty secret of two sibling"! Thus even everyone might be aware of his half burn face he keep it hidden from view of others. Watching over to him she saw him listening something from Ayaz beg she liked even being step brother he come for his aid when Omar was tormented by his elder brother. Or else she was sure she might be not having him at his service cause he must be dead long back. After telling entire story of Omar Beg he noticed Jodha is ready now thus he informed her about arrangements are done for her temple visit).
