'' That is true your highness. I can't believe this...thank you so much my Queen. I really appreciate this kind gesture ''.

(Ujani Kingdom=Royal Palace=7pm).
The palace was filled up and beautiful scenes were created. Some royal dancers kept dancing to the tunes of the drums being beaten by the royal drummers. Other maidens threw flowers on the Kings, Queens, Princes and Princesses who made way out of the building to get to their seats among the people. Foods were being shared among the people, and wine as well. Prince Faruk kept on frowning because some people kept walking around because some people kept walking around Lord Krishna's statue and prayed in his head that,no one mistakenly touches it because by then,all his plans would be destroyed.
Queen mother and Queen Sheena also kept starring at the statue and waiting for the final moments of its fall.
Seven strong guards stood at the entrance of the palace, and three of them held a big horn which they would blow out when Prince Majid arrived. Rishi and Kushi arrived at the palace in their beautiful dresses. They were super excited. They got ti the entrance and their smile disappeared when they saw the guards standing at the entrance with their frowning faces.
'' Show your invitation! ''. One of them said in a heavy tone.
(Truly, Rishi and Kushi had no invitation. An they really needed to go to the party to consume all the rich foods that soul be shared).
'' Did you not her him? Where is your invitation? ''. Another guard asked.
'' Do we have to have an invitation before entering the palace? ''. Rishi asked.
'' Yes. Everyone that entered showed their invitation ''.
'' Oh no Rishi, what are we going to do now? ''. Kushi whispered to her.
'' I don't know Kushi... we have to go to the party no matter what,am sure there will be delicious foods there ''. Rishi whispered back.
'' Then do something ''.
(Rishi cleared her throat and looked into her small purse and took out five gold coins and stretched it to the guards).
'' Urrrmmm...please, take this coins and let us enter ''.
'' Are you mad?! Who do you think you are?! Are you trying to bribe us?! ''.
'' Mo no....
'' You are under arrest! ''. One of the guards held Rishi and Kushi and they tried letting go but he was too strong for them. '' I am taking you to the king for your punishment, you dirty commoner ''.
'' Please don't do this,we just wanted to go to the party ''.
.....
....
Suddenly, two cars were driving from afar towards the palace. As the car were drawing nearer,the rest of the guards were alert and the first car stopped then Mr Raul poked his head out of the window, then the three guards holding Rishi and Kushi loosed concentration and turned to the car,Rishi stepped on his feet with all her strength and he let go off them. The two girls dashed into the palace immediately.
The drums became louder as they had realised Prince Majid had arrived. The royal dancers,danced slowly outside with the flower maidens. The palace huge gates were opened and Mr Raul slowly drove into the compound together with the second car. The royalties all got to their frets in all smiles. The guard also entered the palace and started looking for Rishi and Kushi. The thousands of people dashed near the car.
Ten guards quickly paved way to the car and pulled people away from the car and pulled people away from the car. Mr Raul and Jimmy got out of the first car and flowers were being rained on them. The king got closer to Mr Raul with a wide smile and hugged him tightly. They put their hands together as tradition demanded in a form of greeting. Mr Raul gave Jimmy a sign and he quickly bent down and touched the king's feet.
Then finally, Majid got out of the second car with the rest of them and a wild wind blew over them,his wavy hair dashed back by the wind and he gave a wide smile. His family were more than surprised. His father the king,was filled with tea,as Majid looked exactly like his late mother. Cindy quickly dashed to Majid's side with a smile. All the girls were about to faint by his handsomeness. Even the old ladies. Majid bowed down and touched his father's feet the put his hands together. His father brashed his fingers through his son's soft hair with a smile and embraced him tightly. Queen mother and Queen Sheena got closer with Princess Lakshmi and the others.
.....
....
'' Majid ''. Queen mother said in a shaking voice and tears.
'' Grandmother? ''. Majid asked in confusion since he was meeting them for the first time after 20 years away.
'' Oh my God,he recognised me ''. Queen mother said in joy and he bowed down and touched her feet. Receiving a light kiss on his forehead from her.
(Queen Sheena who was smiling and crying at the same time got in front of him with her eyes filled with love for him. She caressed his face and Queen Dorah whimpered. Majid bowed down and touched her feet as well and smiled).
'' Mother? ''.
'' My son,you have been missed, you are finally back home my son. Welcome ''.
(Princess Lakshmi didn't let Majid get to hernaide before she jumped all over him with a tight hug,and Majid who had foreign blood in him now gave her a kiss on her cheeks as he realised it was his little sister. He looked on his left side and bowed down and touched Queen Dorah's feet. She gave out a fake smile when Majid called her aunt. Then finally, the two brothers face up. Majid was surprised, he actually saw his elder brother for he first time. Prince Faruk gave a be wide innocent smile and quickly embraced his brother tightly. Majid innocently hugged him back and layed his he's on his shoulders.
.....
....
'' Glory to Prince Majid! ''. One guard shouted.
'' Glory to him! ''. All the subjects present shouted back.
'' Glory to Prince Majid! ''.
'' Glory to him! ''.
'' Glory to Prince Majid! ''.
'' Glory to him! ''.
(And it went on and on and on as they all walked to the royal chair. Prince Faruk, who walked besides his brother had his facial expression changed. He wasn't smiling. He started thinking of a way to get Majid closer to the statue. The party then officially started).
.....
....
Rishi and Kushi were busily chewing a big roasted chicken at the food side. The maidens were still dancing widely and the drums were loud. They ate so much that they felt like vomiting. And Rishi started dancing, followed by Kushi, while the both of them held roasted chicken tights in their hands and danced among the people. Some few hours later,after instructions were made,the king decided to give the announcement of the marriage alliance between Prince Majid and Princess Ragah.
The spokesperson for the king gave a sign to one of the hornguards,and he blew his horn so loud and got everyone's attention. The king got to his feet. Rishi and Kushi saw the guard who caught them at the entrance was getting nearer and they both quickly rashes behind lord Krishna's statue. The king was on his feet with the royal family. Majid and his friends had no idea on what was about to go down.
.....
....
'' Thank you all,my supportive subjects for gathering here to honour your crowned Prince with this warm welcome. And there is another good news(the king stretched his hand at the direction of Princess Ragah and nodded his head. Sle slowly climbed up to him with a smile). Meet Princess Ragah, she is the Princess of Jhansi. Princess Ragah and Prince Majid are allied together to get married ''.
(Majid is shocked. Cindy is blown away and their friends are amazed. But the subjects shouted with joy. Cindy turned her face to look at Majid who was shockingly starring at his family who was busily jubilating about the news).
'' Stop!!! ''. He shouted and got a distance away from them. '' What the fuck is going on here? ''.
(The Queen mother and Queen Sheena quickly got closer and held him still).
'' Majid, calm down ''. Queen Sheena whispered.
'' No! What do you people think you are doing? How the hell have you found a bride for me without my consent? ''.
(Cindy was shaking in fright, the royal families were thrown into confusion).
.....
'' Oh my oh mine..I think the gods are working in my favour already, just imagine Majid,now refusing to accept the alliance between he and Princess Ragah, and that will also means,disobeying his father's orders and embarrassing him in front of his fellow kings. Wow Dorah,this is your chance to add fuel to the fire and put your long awaited plan into action ''. Queen Dorah thought.
(Prince Faruk hypocritically got to Prince Majid's side and pleaded with all the kings and royal families to forgive his brother's behaviour. He then asked to take Majid aside to speak to him. They were given the permission and he took Majid right o lord Krishna's statue. They stood in front of the statue, far away from the crowd. The party was still going on high)...
....
'' Majid, what do you think you are doing? ''.
'' What do you mean by that? You saw everything yourself, come on! Do you know the things I got packed in my head? ''.
'' Well...in fact,you are absolutely right brother. If I were you,I would have done the same thing... I mean,how can father set a marriage for you without your permission? ''.
'' Thank goodness someone finally understands me. Thanks bro ''.
(Faruk gave a fake smile).
.....
'' Just relax Majid. This thing is not force okay? It is evening time and neighbouring kings have gathered with us. Let morning come,and everything will settled down...do you need a drink? ''.
'' Sure sure ''.
'' Stand right here brother. Don't move an inch,I will be back with drinks for both of us ''.
(Prince Faruk turned to leave and saw his friend Shiv,standing from afar. He gave Shiv a sign and left. Shiv cunningly sneaked behind lord Krishna's statue with one of his trusted guards who served Prince Faruk. Prince Majid stood in front of the statue in anger. He took out his phone and switched it on. Shiv and the other guard pushed the statue. Cindy saw the statue first and screamed Majid's name,the Princess saw the statue too and shouted for Majid to watch out,Rishi stood in the crowd and the elephant necklace she wore burn she wore burnt her chest and she moaned in pain,as she raised her head,she saw the statue coming down on Prince Majid. She shouted and started running towards Prince Majid. The entire party was quiet now. People were screaming, that was when Prince Majid realised the statue was coming down to crush him,he was so shocked and was watching the statue which was coming down to kill him. Rishi got to his side and pushed him down and caught the huge statue, her forehead hit the stone and she got a cut. The elephant necklace lighted and Majid also felt a burn by his necklace too. Rishi screamed in pain as her hands slipped off the statue and ten guards quickly arrived and held the statue with all their strength. Rishi slipped on her legs an fell over Prince Majid. Their necklace lighted together and they were both shocked. The light bright on their faces and the looked into each other's eyes. Queen mother and Queen Sheena are shocked. The wild wind blows on both Majid and Rishi....
