The Cursed Princess Love story

Begin again

I woke up past 8 AM. I won't be able to go to the office today. Not in the mood at all. After last night's events, I should at least take two days to process it and become normal. I applied for two days sick leave. I had just sent the mail and was sitting on the bed, thinking about last night. It was like a beautiful dream, except it happened for real. Nobody is going to believe it if I say the Angels visited me last night. Even I wouldn't. But it's for real. I can still feel their touch on my arms. I sighed. I'm not going to tell anybody about this. Not even Rocky.

I remembered the last words of the Angels, before they left.

"Just because you have to get redeemed from the curse, doesn't mean you will get him easily with your proposal or by forcing him. You have to put in all your efforts. Fight for your love. Your love should be selfless. Don't try to seek his love, just love him. Your love should benefit him but not burden him. Don't let your past experiences affect the present. Enjoy being in love. Our blessings will always be with you."

What should I do now? How to fight for my love? I don't know that. They said I shouldn't burden him, but benefit him. I will seek Rocky's help.

I called Rocky immediately. He answers after four rings.

"Hello Rocky!"

"Hello madam! What amazing thing did this poor guy do to get your call?!"

Taunting is very well evident in his voice because I failed to call him regularly.

"Sorry Rocky, I thought of calling you so many times but I felt like I shouldn't disturb you so. "

"Oh, yes yes, you shouldn't disturb me, because I'm the PM of this country na! Stop lying. You are so much in love that's why you forgot me."

"Rocky! Leave it yaar. I'm in so much trouble now. I am on the verge of a breakdown. "

"Hey! Mohana! What happened? Is everything okay there? I should have asked about it first. I'm sorry for being a jerk. Tell me know what's bothering you so much? "

Ha-ha. I knew he would forgive me instantly if I showed my weak side. I smirked evilly.

I told him everything happened after I came to Hyderabad, leaving the Angels part. He listened to me patiently. After I completed my ranting, I asked him,

"What should I do now? "

"Just go to your hometown and live there."

"Rocky!! I'm serious. I can't live without him. Not exactly. But I want to live with him forever. I love him."

"He must have done some great deed in his last birth to get a girl like you loving him."

If only he knew the story of our last birth.

"Mohana, your love is genuine. But you don't need to be so pure in making efforts to get his love"

"What are you talking about Rocky? I will never do such things."

"Ohh, you are taking it in the wrong way. I'm saying that, first get to know more about him. From the things you said earlier, it seems you guys never had a good interaction with each other. For any relationship, communication is important."

"But how can I get to know him? We don't even work on the same floor."

I heard a bike horn on the phone.

"Mohana, I have to go to Office, it's time. Though I want to talk more, that shitty job doesn't wait for me. My boss is a monster. Will talk to you in the evening. "

"Hey, at least tell me something about how to get to know him?"

"Stalk him Mohana, on every social media platform. Bye. "

Then he hung up. He hates his job. I should do something about it. I remember that one of my relatives has a software company here. It's Visesh Uncle. If it was any other person, I wouldn't have called, but Visesh uncle had a soft corner for me. I checked the family WhatsApp group which was kept mute for years and searched for his number.

When he received my call, his words were laced with surprise.

He promised to allot a job for Rocky but on one condition. To visit them on the coming Sunday.

The last thing I will ever want to do. Anyways, I agreed. Worth my friend. I sent Rocky's resume and email to Visesh uncle. By evening, he will get the call letter.

My stomach started rumbling with hunger. It's already quarter to ten. I got freshened up and made my 'ready to eat' breakfast, Peppy masala oats.

I decided to try and stalk Dheeraj Ram. First, I opened my WhatsApp, searched for his number. He is in his office attire in the DP. Then I went to Instagram. So many Dheeraj's but I spotted my Ram in a minute. He likes travelling since there are many photos of him in different places. He likes music. There are lyrics here and there as captions and headphones in every pic. Wahhhh...

With the ringing of my phone, I came out from Dheeraj's world. It was already evening. The caller was none other than Rocky, as promised he called me.

"Heyyyy Mohana! I got a job in Hyderabad, in a software company. Salary is 40,000. It fits my educational qualifications. I'm so happy."

"Congrats brother Rocky! Your efforts finally paid off. Your struggles are over. Come here fast and give me a party now! "

"Oh sure. But I don't remember sending a resume to this company. I am thinking that there's somebody's hand in there."

"You might have forgotten about it."

"Don't play coy. Tell me what did you do? Is that your hand? "

"I just sent your resume to some companies around here. I only know that much. Rest all is your talent. Don't give me unnecessary credit."

"Ohho, Thank you sister. Even if you want to stay low key, I know how much you care for me."

"Rocky stop being sentimental now. I don't want to cry."

"OK OK papa. I think there's a hidden motive, with you wanting me to come there so hastily. Am I right? "

" So intelligent. Come and play cupid. Make your Bava (brother-in-law) fall for me."

"Coming soon. But have you done what I told you this morning?"

"I am still in the process. You know what, he likes music a lot and I am listening to just love songs from the morning. Now my mind is full of music notes. "

"Hmm, which song did you get in your mind when you saw him?"

"Tholisari mimmalni choosindi modalu,

Kaldilayi madilona annenno kathalu..."

"Oii, stop it. Which century are you in? Don't be too Sanskari. People of our age don't go with those songs. Update avvamma? (Update dude)"

"OK babu. Songs apart, we don't have any means of communication. There's a lot of gap in our cadre. And to add to that, I'm in his bad books."

"I'm there na, you don't worry about it. I will be coming on Sunday, since I have to join there by Monday."

"Oh, I will book the ticket for the flight. No word about it. Call you later. Bye bye."

I spent another day in my mind and house. Went shopping. Rearranged my wardrobe. Bought a few beauty supplies. Watched the fault in our stars again and cried.
