Prince pial continue looking at him before he tried to speak.

"Pleej batao bhaee (please tell me bro)" ought prince pial.

"Use ek patr bhejen (send her a letter). And asked of her opinion again. We'll still try to get to her through her friend. I have already arranged with Fanat that I be sending her the letter" explained Lihan.

Prince pial felt in excitement. "Really my friend, you're a wonder. That's the best idea" he uttered.

And lihan laughed before he responded, "that's me, Lihan Fas, the bright and brilliant guy in whole of keswick. The case is closed". 

And they both laughed as they drank two to three sips of a juice.

 Queen Lisha was so pleased with Ixan's appreciations to them. After their meal, the Queen decided to leave.

"I will not be happy to see you leaving your highness" said Ixan, unwilling to let them go.

Queen Lisha smiled and kindly held her hands. "You have done so much for us Ixan. I have no words to thank you. I promise that one day I will repay you" she said again. Then she looked at her people, seeing them all ready to go. "Ab ham jaane ke lie taiyaar hain (we are now ready to leave)".

And Ixan smile cutely. "Aapake ghode bhee taiyaar hain (your horses are also ready). And there's no need to repay us your highness. My only hope is to see that one day l will see you again. Long live your highness" she responded delightfully.

"Be safe. And please send your regards to your friend. She has also done so well for us. Dhanyavaad (thank you)" added the Queen. "Ambassador William!" She called.

As ambassador william came out with a bow and answered, "your esteem highness".

Queen lisha gave him alert. And immediately ambassador william brought out five bags from their stuffs. They were all filled with golden coins and he gave to her respectively. She faced Ixan, trying to take her hands. "Please take this Ixan as one of our least gift to you" she uttered.

Ixan carefully moved her hands back and sounded, "forgive me your highness, but I cannot take it. I will agree for anything but I cannot collect anything for my work. Please do not hesitate your highness".

"But I insist" exclaimed the queen. 

"No your highness, pray for us".

Then queen lisha took a breath silently and utter, "I wish I will do my best next time. Well we take our leave".

And Ixan bow and said, "I bid you farewell your highness. Take care". She escorted them out of the tent. Seeing them getting on their horses. Until they left before she returned to her place, trying to clean it up. That's when she heard fanat's voice from distance, calling her name. Ixan swiftly stood and ran outside to her. "what's wrong fanat?" She asked.

Fanat was still running. And she soon reaches to where Ixan was standing, frazzled. She took some minutes to relax before she talk, "calm! Everything is fine. Wait" and she checked her veil in the pocket of her dress. She brought it out and opened. It's a white sheet of paper wrapped in it and she gave to her "yahaan (here)".

"Vahaan kya hai (what's in there)?" Asked jeisin, looking questionably at the white envelope. 

"Don't ask me too much questions Ixan. Just take it and read" responded fanat.

And Ixan collect it, trying to open. After she opened the envelope, she saw a white paper with a blue ink handwriting. "So it's a letter" she said. And she held it in her hands for a few minutes before she looked at fanat and says, "I believe this comes from your boss".

As fanat pout her mouth and responded, "wrong. Just said from your new guest".

Ixan quickly closed the letter and turned to go.

And fanat held back her hand, "don't do this please Ixan. As l know you're a good and patient lady, please do not change. Prince pial is an honorable man. And not like the common men you know, you can count on my words. He's so serious about this. It was lihan who gave me the letter to pass onto you. Prince pial was so worried about you. Where's the queen, has she gone?" She uttered.

And Ixan answered, "she has gone minutes ago before you return. And she's greeting you. She gave us something but ...".

And Fanat exclaimed. "That's good. We should always humble ourselves. And we should never accept anything from anyone no matter what. Let's go to your house, l know uncle should have return by now. Now see what's inside the letter" said Fanat.

Ixan opened the letter_ it was written in italic format and blue ink. And she start to read,

'Dear graceful lady,

My esteemed greeting to you, your family and your people. With many blessings and respect. 

 The main reason for sending you this letter is so momentous. I have been so worried and in the other hand I am so scared. Not knowing your opinion about the issue we discussed the last time I came made me in tense. I am strangely not a civilian from lady's side because I have never been in love in my life. As this is my first time I wish you will be please with me and my attitudes. Surely l have taken a great risk in sending letter to a lady for the first time. I know you are a respectful, humble and generous lady that's why I called you the best and I will not fatigue. If you feel please in your heart to meet me today at the same place we have met last time, that will be the greatest favor to me ever. 

From prince pial,

Keswick kingdom'.

Ixan smiled as soon as she finished reading the letter. And she looked at Fanat.

"Khair, aap kya kahate hain (well, what do you say)?" Asked fanat.

While Ixan was thinking of the perfect answer to give.

Unheralded, somebody bounce back and collected the letter from Ixan's hand. Both Ixan and Fanat turned back as their stomach growled, seeing Ding standing out of notice. They both kept silence looking at him in stressed.
