Chapter 4 - A Cinderella story
The water shimmered just like smiling in the sun as Monya watched the fountain play with the wind. She was sitting in its side wall still stroking the bird. It wasn't a fatal injury just a scratch. She had fed him some water and he would soon fly away. There was a letter in her hand urgently written by someone. But her mind wondered far away.
The look on his eyes was hard to forget. He was so angry with her and yet he had every right to be. She smacked her forehead. Why? Monya Why? Why can't you just think twice before saying or doing something?
"Do you have any solution for burns?" A voice made her jump. She looked up. It was Unnati. "Any scar removers or cold creams or something?"
"Why?" Monya asked unable to read her face. "You haven't got burned?" She checked unnati's hands.
Unnati laughed at her concern.
"It's you who's going to need them." She replied.
Monya looked utterly bewildered.
"Well you won't ask me why if you've seen dada lately." She said sitting beside her and starting to describe the big picture like a director who describes the scene.
"His face is all red and smoke is almost issuing from his ears. He's silent but it feels like he would breathe fire any time now"
"Stop scaring me" Monya who couldn't find it funny said in a small voice.
"Well you've got two options" Unnati said counting down her fingers. "Option one go in to hidingā¦but the angry dragon will find you anywayā¦it'll only delay your death. Option two apologyā¦but that's only if he lets you speak before breathing fireā¦I've already used a life line and eliminated the other two options which included shouting a bit more and crying both aren't going to help you out. So Miss Monya your time starts now"
She laughed and looked up to find a distracted Monya and grabbed the letter in her hand.
"Wow who's been writing to our madam?" She asked as her eyes travelled through the letter's content.
"Monya beta , The journey's been fine. These people are so kind hearted. I think this is the best place for you to settle down. I'll be coming home as soon as I finish my work here. And then we'll fix a date for the engagement." Unnati looked up.
"For the engagement?" She said slowly. "Monya you didn't tell me that Murari kaka went to Mumbai to fix your alliance? "
"I didn't know myself" Monya replied.
"I never thought I'd have to bid you goodbye so soon" Unnati said slowly her eyes filled with fresh tears.
"Don't worry about it now" Monya said putting her arm around Unnati. "Who knows whether I'll be alive when Baba returns" She smiled. "First I'll have to survive that dragon of yours then we'll see a way to send this" She grabbed back the letter. "Dulha to hell"
Unnati's eyes brightened.
"So you don't like him?"
"Nope" Monya shook her head. "I'm not interested in marrying anyone. And he just doesn't feel right"
"Oh ho!" Unnati rolled her eyes. "So madam is waiting for a prince charming"
"I don't know about charming" Monya said getting up. "But not a prince for sureā¦I've seen one and he's more than enough for a one life timeā¦I don't want any more of them in my life! Or I'll have to live my life dodging fires"
Both girls sheared a laugh and went inside hand in hand not worrying about the world a slightest bit.

He was so angry, angry at how he couldn't just slap her, angry at why he couldn't just defend himself, angry that he couldn't do anything for her and finally angry at himself for making the situation even worse.
But underneath that anger there was a note of amusement that how courageous she was. He closed his eyes for a moment and pictured a commoner who was shouting her head off at a royal. She had a fire inside her and when it was lit she was nothing less than a wild lioness.
He always thought there's no one who could impress him. But this girl caught him by surprise. She was wild, violent and strong at the same time. She was a storm which made him loose the track of things. He never found anyone so impossible yet so attractive. He saw his own mirror image in her which made him feel impatient for the first time. He needed her more than anything he desired in his life.
There was no one in his room yet he felt crowded and disturbed. He was so tangled in his thoughts that it took him ages to find the rose laying in his table one word was written in the note underneath it. One word spelled in a familiar writing read 'sorry'
*
"Monya!" Swati the maid walked in to the room. Monya who was laughing for some stupid article Unnati had just read out looked at her wiping the tears in her eyes.
"Yeah that's my name nice for you to remind me" She said still choking.
"Yuvraj ji asked you to see him" She said in the most unemotional tone in the world. Seeing the smile vanishing and a solemn look replacing she added. "Now"
"There you go Monya" Unnati said in a grave tone. "The honorable members of the jury decide the culprit guilty of all charges"
She went to see him or more like her feet dragged her. She knocked and he answered 'come in'
"Oh bagavan ji" She muttered to herself. "Don't let you devotee die just yet"
He was sitting there her note still in his hand he got up when she entered. Where was the flower? She wondered. But does it matters to a person who's just about to die?
"What is this?" He asked in a cold tone. Suddenly her eyes seemed to be weighted a ton that she couldn't lift them up to meet his.
"It's a note yuvraj ji saying that I...I'm sorry"
"No it is a note that says you're too arrogant to apology yourself" She lifted her eyes to look up at him and found that he was looking out of the window. "It is a note which makes it clear that you cannot face the outcome of your actions and that you're not ready for your punishment."
Suddenly anger boiled inside her.
"You have no right to call me weak!" She said in a more firm tone. "Leave the apology if you don't want it!"
She turned to leave.
"I hadn't asked you to leave just yet" Uday said finally turning to face her.
"I'm not a slave to do whatever you ask me to!" She said her voice getting louder with each word. Those words had just escaped her lips when she found herself pinned to the wall. He held tight into her hands and said.
"You told last evening that you're not a princess" She felt his breath on her lips. "That leaves you no option"
"Leave me!" She said in that angry tone of hers. He just laughed.
"I don't take orders from my servants" His voice turned silky and dangerous. "They do what I ask them to"
"You're hurtingā¦"
"Shhh" He said tracing her lips with his finger. She felt so shocked and numb that it took her a while to gain her voice back.
"Wh...What are you doing?"
"Observing" He said slowly as his finger wondered down her chin. "Trying to figure out the mystery inside you"
For the first time in her life she was afraid of someone who she considered to be her friend. Her heart was paining her now as it was beating faster every passing second. His eyes paralyzed her that she felt it was his mind which controlled her body now. No one⦠No one in her whole life came so close to her, No one made her so helplessā¦speechlessā¦motionlessā¦or lifeless
Let someone come! She wished wildly. Let someone call himā¦or let me just drown in to the depths of those eyesā¦
He loosened his grip as she had given up fighting. She just stood there her eyes closed breathing deeply. Watching her he wondered how someone can look so innocentā¦yet so beautiful at the same time. His mind still unfocused he lowered his lips to her ear touching her earlobe with them as he spoke.
"That's what happens to those who dare to challenge yuvraj Udayveer"
Her eyes filled up with fresh tears as she opened them.
"Let me go your highness" She muttered in a small voice knowing that the battle was lost and that for the first time in her life she was at his mercy. He was taken aback by her sudden surrender.
She looked into his eyes. "I sorry" Her anger and pride was shattered, shattered in to pieces that she couldn't even count. As he freed her she hugged him like she wanted to do the first time they met. He hugged her back surprised at the sudden change of the tide. He looked into her eyes as though they were back to those childhood times and said.
"That wasn't your punishmentā¦and I haven't forgiven you yet" Her eyes widened.
"I'll only forgive Princess" he said in that mocking tone of his. "If she'll do something or me"
"What?" She asked wiping her eyes from the back of her hand finally taking a breath of relief.
"Well your punishment is that you'll have to act like a royal for a one whole evening"
She couldn't understand where the wind was blowing that she just looked at him in puzzlement.
"Will you be my partner for the royal ball?"

"I think dada's loosing it too" Unnati shook her head while arranging Monya's hair, she who was lost in her own world of thoughts didn't hear the remark.
"You do realize that Jay's going to bite your head off once you arrive in his arm don't you?" She asked in a worried voice.
"I know" Monya said in a serious tone looking at the reflection she was making in the mirror. She looked nothing like her own self. The girl who looked back at her looked more sophisticated and elegant than ever. Her peach color skin joined with the sky blue tone of her dress seamlessly.
"Maybe someone who had the same problem invented the mask" She said taking hers and showing it to Unnati. "I'm going to wear this until I can vanish myself away from the crowd."
"I wish there's no clock that'll chime twelve down there" Unnati said giving one last look at her friends profile while they slowly made their way downstairs.
Monya smiled in reply as they reached the hall. It was dimly lit with blue lights and every decoration had a slight touch of blue in it.
"From when did Jay and dada swap their favorite colors?" Unnati whispered as they entered. She was not the only one to whisper. So many others whispered and turned their heads towards them, some eagerly watching just to recognize who the new comer was while the others wondering what on earth she was doing there.
Monya felt a knot in her throat as she searched for Uday. Those people were making her feel so nervous that she was making her mind of running away. At the moment Jay came down in her father's arm. Brijraj who was the only person visiting from that royal family looked somehow familiar to her.
Jay had that toothy smile back on. Oh how much does she hate it! She shook hands with the guests and was slowly making her way towards them. Her eyes too seemed to be looking for the same person.
At the moment when Jay was a foot away from them Monya felt someone pulling her close. A hand was wrapped around her waist.
"Thanks choti, for escorting my partner"
He had that smirk back on. "You were looking for me princess" he said slowly. It wasn't a question it was a statement.
"No I was looking for a hole to hide"
"That's not a royal way if you ask me"
"I won't"
"Oh yes you will" He said leading her to the dance floor. Jay made some odd twist to her neck to get a better look at the girl who just went pass her and so did many others.
"I just wish they stop staring" She muttered as they reached the dance floor.
"Forget them" was his reply.
She never found it was so easy to forget something let along hundred people looking at her. Her eyes found that look in his eyes once again as he twirled her around. They matched every step they took. She was as much a royal as he claimed to be. In his arms she forgot the world, forgot that she was nervous that she had decided to stay away from him, her existence and every other silly thing that mattered to her till this moment.
"She's a eye catching piece" Brijraj said to his friend as they watched the two dance. "You'll have to be careful my friendā¦young hearts are blind"
"Yes" Giriraj replied. "Let them be blindā¦because my son doesn't have a heart to be blind after all"
As soon as they finished dancing Unnati dragged Monya to a corner.
"I need your help" She said.
"Why⦠what�" Before she could ask her what the matter was they heard Giriraj making an announcement.
"Thank you friends for joining us on a short notice to shear our happiness" Unnati's eyes widened and she looked utterly shocked. "Yes.." He was saying. "I would like to shear on a happy tone the fact that in the upcoming week my son yuvraj Udayveer Singh" He clapped uday's shoulder. "ā¦will be engaging to princess Jaynandini!"
A cold breeze entwined with her soul. She turned and left before Unnati's hand could stop her. She left in a mild run until she reached the fountain by which she had sat earlier.
She kept forgetting that she was no princess. It was these kind hearted people who addressed her so. It was a mare name when it comes to her. A name that was used to address a nobody. Then in that cold dark night she realized that he had punished her in a way she couldn't even imagine. It was her punishment to realize that she had no place in their lives.
In the clear water of the pond beneath her she saw the shadow of a falling star. She closed her eyes as tears in them tickled down her cheeks and asked for the first and last time in her life to make her a princess in reality too.
On the same moment inside the busy hall Brijraj received a phone call from his mother. And the massage was simple.
"We found where Murari isā¦"
