Karna's POV
Aahana's words and questions were still ringing in my head. What she said was blunt but true. For the first time in my life I wished I didn't know the truth, for the first time I wished that I was oblivious. I didn't know what to choose- my friend or my family. My friend was the only one who stood up for me when everyone ignored me, when the whole world was against me. And my family is someone I have yearned for since ages. It's like people have asked me to choose which part of my body should be cut- my legs or my hands. No matter which is cut, I'll have to bear the pain. I sighed as I walked towards the only person who could help me.
"Dasi, can you please inform the future queen that Angraj is here to meet her." I asked the dasi as soon as I reached her chamber.
"My apologies Angraj but my lady is not in her room. She has gone to the study to meet the pandavas." I nodded at her and left. There is no way the pandavas will allow me near their favorite lady. I sighed as I proceeded towards Duryodhan's chamber.
Yesterday after Aahana left, I decided to give my kingdom back to Duryodhan. Giving my kingdom back to him will lift at least more than half of burden.
As I walked into his chamber, I was met with a usual site of Gandhar raj, Duryodhan and Dushasan sitting together. Their attention diverted towards me as I stood before them.
"Angraj Karn, welcome, welcome. We've been waiting for you." Gandhar raj said in his extra sweet voice. I love Duryodhan but I'm not really fond of his uncle. He's the root cause of Duryodhan's sins, he's the reason of the hate between the kauravs and the pandavas.
"Pranam Gandhar raj, Mitr Duryodhan and Dushasan." I greeted them politely.
"Angraj Karna, you are here at the right time. Now you only get bhrata out of his day dreams." Dushasan said confusing me.
"Day dream?" I asked confused.
"He's been dreaming about a girl since long. He even met her today." Dushasan said laughing.
"Which girl mitra?" I asked.
"Aahana!" As soon as he said that I clenched my fists.
"Duryodhan, she is your elder brother's wife. Be respectful." I said angrily. The nerve of him to look at someone's wife, my sister.
"I can't help Karna. She is just so etheral. I don't think she is some normal person, she is definitely some enchantress. The way she walks, the way she smiles, the way her face expressions change from confused to happy. I just wish I could kill that Yudhishthir to claim her."
"DURYODHANN!!" I said angrily.
"Don't forget your limits. She is your sister in law whose place is as sacred as a mother and you are here lusting after her. I stayed quite in all your sins but disrespecting a woman is really going far now." my blood was boiling. If not his favours, I would've killed him right here for eyeing my sister.
