The entire room fell into deep silence and the King Chanukya observed the overflowing emotion in his both granddaughters' eyes. So he wanted to stop the conversation.
But before he spoke, someone started saying, "Yashu ma and Grandpa.. Do you know that my mom was abducted before?" Ashmita asked with trembling her voice.
"Yes dear.. But the difference is that I just know she went missing and apart from that your father didn't disclose anything to me. Your grandfather doesn't know anything about this, only your father, aunt and me knew that she went missing" Yashoda explained hurriedly.
"The answers for your questions can be given only by your father or Oak, Ashmitha", Yashoda said while looking at the Oak.
Before Ashmita asked Oak anything again, her grandfather Chanukya interrupted.
"Dear, I know we all want to know the truth but let us give Oak some rest because he just recovered and also Maira too is tired from a long journey", King chanukya said. And he was also overwhelmed with sadness by the information he just heard today. He never thought that his daughter suffered so much and she didn't even inform him about any of her problems.
Everyone understood his words and they also knew about the king's weakened health so they reluctantly nodded their heads off and left the room one after the other.
Ashmita was the last one to exit the room leaving Oak lost in his thoughts. Maira waiting outside for Ashmita walked towards her and hugged her tightly.
Maira knew how her sister is feeling right now because of the same pain they're facing. At this moment she takes an oath to destroy the person who caused so much pain to her family.
Next day everyone gathered for breakfast but none of them were in a good mood. Also Prathap tried to lighten their mood but none of them cheered up.
That day they didn't meet Oak and everyone seemed to be lost in their thoughts.The King went to court as usual for addressing the problems in the kingdom and all other formalities.
In the evening someone came to the King and informed him about a problem they are facing in their village. The problem is, some wild animals and thieves are attacking their village and they also started abducting children.
King wanted to send some of the soldiers to save them and guard them but later he decided to give this task to Ashmita. He knew her well enough that she is stubborn outside but she is sensitive when it comes to her bottom line which is her family. She has been suffering a lot inside after knowing about her mother, so he wants her to distract herself from this turmoil.
Hence after careful consideration, he sent a message to Ashmita to take up this task.
When she got the message, she agreed without any hesitation because it is her responsibility to save her people from any kind of danger. So she decided to go on this mission along with Prathap and Shilpa. Because she doesn't need all of her team for this small thing in fact she doesn't even need the backup she selected but for the safer side, she is taking them.
But little did she know her life is going to take a huge turn in this mission.
Ashmita went to Maira and informed her about the mission. Maira insists on coming along but Ashmita simply rejects her by saying that there is no need and that she will be returning in no time.
Maira reluctantly agreed and nodded her head.
Next day Ashmita left the palace with Pratap and Shilpa by bidding goodbye to all.
After Ashmita left, one guard came towards and bowed down to the king and informed him of something.
"Greetings!! Your Majesty.. There is a message from a guest", the guard said politely.
"Ask him to meet me in the evening," the King said before leaving but stopped when he heard the guard continuing.
"Apologies, your Majesty! but the guest wants to speak with Princess Maira" guard said.
"What??" King asked in confusion.
"Yes Majesty he wants to meet Princess Maira and he said he was a princess' childhood friend.
And he said that the princess will know him. He asked me to inform the princess that he came to meet his beauty" when the guard finished his words, Maira's eyes widened with shock.
"Really??" Maira asked with joy in her eyes.
Everyone looked at Maira and noticed how happy she was and thought that maybe this person is someone close to Maira. Before anyone opened their words, she asked the guard, "Where is he now?"
"Princess, he is resting in the visiting room" He replied politely.
Maira dashed out towards the visiting room leaving everyone shocked and surprised. Everyone's curiosity increased to know about this person and everyone looked at Raghu and Raji.
King asked, "Raghu do you know this person?"
"I have no idea about this person.." Raghu said while looking at Raji.
"Me too. I don't know anything about him. Maira didn't mention any childhood friends and in fact she doesn't have any friends." Raji said.
Everyone was surprised by listening to their words and everyone decided to wait for Maira to come back and reveal them about this person.
In the visitor room a person is sitting in the chair. He had tousled dark brown hair, which was thick and lustrous. His eyes were a mesmerising deep ocean blue, flecks of silvery light performed ballets throughout. His face was strong and defined, his features molded from granite. He had dark eyebrows, which sloped downwards in a serious expression. One look towards him made everyone freeze and they just look at him throughout their life.
He is patiently waiting for her and pouring himself a glass of water, took a sip of it and placed it down. Every action of his is elegant and manly. He is paying attention to the entrance every second, for her arrival.
Suddenly his eyes shone like a stars and his lips curled up by seeing the most dear person to him running down to the room he's waiting in.
"Abhi…" Maira called him with a smile, panting.
