Priyam paced in his room. He was worried a lot about his friend's wellbeing. After Aman returned from Annot he was withdrawn from life again.
A servant knocked on the door and drew his attention, "Young Master Valik is requesting permission to enter, my lord."
"Granted," Priyam replied and waved at the servant.
He sat on one of the sofas, still in deep thought. He heard Valik's steps approaching him as the young man took a seat beside him without saying anything.
"Is he still the same?" Priyam asked Valik.
The other one nodded, "unfortunately yes. I visited the palace and met the Crown Prince. He told me that Prince Aman still talks less. And he always seems sad and zoned out."
Priyam sighed, "I don't know what we should do! It feels like the time has reversed and once again we are struck in that same place. This reminds me of…..of…"
"..... those thirteen days of Prince Dev's mourning period," Valik completed his sentence.
