DeepthiSajit
Two years later, the palace still remembered her.
It remembered her in the long corridors where her footsteps no longer echoed, in the quiet courtyards where laughter had once broken the rules of silence.
The walls stood taller now, heavier, as if the truth they hid had settled into their stones.
Rimjhim returned not as the girl who had once learned to lower her eyes.
She returned as a woman shaped by absence.
The city beyond the palace gates had moved on.
Seasons had changed. Lives had been rewritten.
But inside, time had stalled, frozen at the moment she left.
Guilt lingered like dust on unopened windows.
Pain slept in corners no one dared to clean.
They believed she would never come back.
They were wrong.
She did not come seeking forgiveness, nor answers wrapped in apologies.
The past had taught her what bowing cost. What silence demanded. What love, when twisted by power, could destroy.
As she stepped into the shadow of the palace once more, Rimjhim knew one thing with painful clarity.
She was not here to reclaim what was lost.
She was here to confront it.
And if the palace had learned to live without her, it would now have to learn how to face her.
SHE IS NOT HERE TO BOW SHE IS HERE TO CONQUER.......
