Nevertheless, upon entering Rudra's chamber, Rajeev discovered that it was devoid of any occupants.
"Where is my father?" he pondered.
Even the lavatory was unoccupied when he entered, but the entire space was deserted.
Rudra was not to be discovered across the entire residence, despite his exhaustive search. He harbored a mild apprehension towards Rudra. " Did, dad, abandon me once more?" He felt terribly depressed as he thought about Rudra.
"Nevertheless, father had assured me that he would spend a little while with me." He wondered where his father had gone.
Nandini walked into the room while he was deep in thought. Rajeev walked up as soon as he spotted Nandini and inquired, "Nandini, have you seen dad? Where did he go?"
Nand didn't want to reveal his identity to Rajeev because, because he is Rudra's biological son, what use would identity theft serve?
"Take heart Rajeev, he was greeted with an important task and will be returning shortly". This was his initial tone of speech when he spoke to him.
Rajeev was bewildered as he listened to his original voice. He questioned, "Who are you?" in a bewildered tone.
He grinned and said, "You know me, Rajeev. My name is Nand, who goes by A2."
The person who halted them at Gowthami's dwelling was instantly recalled by Rajeev. Rajeev paused in mid-sentence and said, "You are...."
And responded, "Yes, it's me."
Rajeev had a full view of him; he was dressed in feminine attire.
Rajeev truly believed he was a girl, and nobody in the house could have guessed he was a male.
Nand grasped why he was staring at him so intently as he was giving him his whole attention. In a sorrowful tone, he answered, "What to do? This is my destiny. Dad gave me the go-ahead to dress in this manner and issued a warning not to reveal my identity."
Upon seeing him, Rajeev felt awkward. He paused his laughter to say, "You really look terrific in this outfit."
Rajeev is aware of Rudra's little issues, but he refused to provide his name. He may have been ordered to dress this way because he fears that if others around him expose who they are, then too would they, and it would be devastating to him.
But the fact that Rudra had really chosen a girl's outfit for nand made him laugh.
Nand grew a bit agitated when he spotted Rajeev was restraining his laughter." Don't mock me, Rajeev, please."
Regretfully, Rajeev expressed his regret and said he didn't mean to offend him.
Rajeev's memory of Ram snapped back. Rudra introduces nand as the two-headed ram's feature bride and as Nadini.
"Does Ram have knowledge of your identity?" he said right away.
" Indeed, he does. I stated to him as much just a short while ago.
And lastly, would you kindly assist me in hiding my identity? Dad cautioned me that I ought to maintain my true identity shielded from all parties."
Rajeev consented to him after giving it some thought.
Recalling Rudra, Rajeev inquired, "Do you've obtained my father's contact number?"
For the record, Rajeev never got the chance to ask for his number, nor did he even have one.
"I do, indeed" . The Rudra phone number was promptly provided to him by Nand.
Upon obtaining Rudra's number, Rajeev promptly tried to reach him, but Rudra failed to answer.
Rajeev's worry for his father is evident from the look on his visage.
Rajeev's anxious expression caught his attention, as did the way he kept calling Rudra." I assured it not to fret; your father was going to stay safe. Nobody has the audacity to hurt him."
Nand is aware of the combat prowess of Rudra. He has seen firsthand how Rudra battled his adversaries with only one hand.
Rajeev was informed of his father's fighting prowess and abilities, and after giving it some thought, he decided to comply.
..
Since the day they crossed the forest, Ram has been explaining to abhi every detail regarding Gowthami and his pet Vyaaghra, the manner in which they got lost in the forest, how they eventually found the hidden city, and finally, Rudra.
When Abhi heard what Ram had to say, he was shocked.
The fact that Gowthami had a pet astonished him even more.
"What!, Gowthami reportedly owned a tiger as a pet". Abhi's lips widened in dismay.
" What makes you believe that I'm an idiot for always listening to your stories? Would you like to retell the story, Ram? ",Abhi shot him a furious glare.
Ram spoke up right away, saying, "I'm revealing what's true; please have faith in me; I wasn't stating anything."
After spotting the serious demeanor on the ram's visage and his truthfulness style, Abhi concluded that the ram was not bluffing this time.
"Alright, I trust you, nevertheless I am going to shoot you the subsequent time you attempt to trick me." Ram was cautioned by Abhi.
Ram was a bit relieved that Abhi had at last lost his temper and was no longer angry with him.
With a quick embrace, he told Bhi, "You are the best brother."
Pushing him aside, Abhi replied, "Okay, okay, that's enough. You have the knack to soothe me down. Less hidden facts next time, okay."
" Yes, deal", ram cheerfully replied.
While conversing, Abhi's phone rang out of the blue. From his office, there came a call.
He remarked, "I have to take this call," and got up to answer it.
Ram sat silently, not bothering him.
A bit later, Abhi reappeared, his face expressionless.
Ram inquired, "What unfolded brother? Any problem?" as soon as he spotted him.
" Indeed, Ram, there was a crisis; therefore I had to evacuate the vicinity. I have an issue that has to be resolved in my workplace."
" Shall I join you" , ram straight away raised his hand for assistance abhi.
Ram's financial acumen was known to Abhi. "I'm sanguine that I can handle this period, and your assistance may also be needed at this residence at this same moment. I shall be back by tomorrow evening, so avoid stress."
