As the great Maharana came in with a huge smile on his face, all the Royals bent with respect. Even though, some didn't like this rule Manyata perfomed this action with full respect and so did Udayveer. Manyata approached Maharana Pratap and she said " Hello Maharana sahab, I guess in the past 2 years you've lost weight, haven't you? " Manyata asked in the most cheerful manner she could manage. Just when Udayveer came into the scene. He bowed his head with such great poise and elegance, he's a prince afterall. " May I get you a drink? " Udayveer asked gently and Manyata spoke up before Maharansahab could do so " Don't you know Yuvraaj that Maharana sahab gave up drinking a year ago? " Manyata added a firm tone to her voice. Udayveer never felt offended because he knew this was just the outer covering of her feelings. A girl like her would never hate anybody to this extent. " Relax Manyata beta. It's fine Udayveer didn't know about it. " Maharana sahab said in his usual calm tone.
Manyata left from there and went to freshen up in the restroom. She ran inside and did n=some touch up to her makeup and smiled a bit. Two eyes were watching her from behind. Those dark black eyes had a rage in them a fire. Manyata rushed outside. As soon as the meeting started everybody was seated in their respective places. Manyata was just 2-3 seats ahead of Udayveer.
While the meeting was going on Udayveer cared a darn about it. He fixed his gaze at Manyata. He was constantly looking at Manyata. Just when he remembered those precious moments.
~ Flashback ~
Manyata came running toward Udayveer for a big hug. She was flying to London for her further studies. She hugged him and suddenly he realised his shirt was slowly slowly becoming wet. " Stop crying you Idiot. " Udayveer said but she didn't stop. " I'll miss you like hell." Manyata said in a childish manner. " Ohh princess.. It's fine." Udayveer said while putting on that hundred watt smile of his, even though he too was on the urge of crying. " We'll keep in touch with the help of Skype, won't we? Udayveer said to assure her. " But still.." Manyata was getting too emotional now.
She turned to the other side to go and alone a tear came into Udayveer's eyes too. But, he quickly wiped it off. " What if the media watches? " Udayveer said to himself trying to lighten his own mood. He smiled and left from there.
~ Present ~
Everytime Udayveer looked at Manyata, she felt someone gazing at her. She had no idea it must be Udayveer. She looked behind and she saw him. She got in contact with hee deep brown eyes directly and from there she couldn't take her eyes off him. " I hope all of you agree with me? " Maharana said while looking at the duo. But, he meant to say it to everyone.
*********
Manyata woke up at her usual time. She heard a sudden noise. She quickly ran out to check what happend. A maid dropped the tray which was in her hands, She saw Manyata and she quckly started apologizing. " It's okay. But be careful next time " Manyata said politely. The maid actually recieved a shock. Yuvraani Manyata Kumari right now right here ignored a mistake which was a big thing.
Manyata quickly got ready wearing a black and white stripped dress. She was already late for office.
(this was her outift)
****************
Udayveer's mind was spinnig. How could he do that? How could he pay attention to Manyata? He just didn't understand.What sort of affection was he getting for her? Those butterflies were back. He thought a hot shower would let it go.
Meanwhile Manyata was coming back from office. She was on her way home when she noticed a two motor bikes following her. She thought of getting out of the car and asking them if there was a problem but she let it go. She was completely exhausted. Just when her phone rang. The voice was not recognizabl. " I want you to know that someone somewhere is trying to get rid of you " the voice said in a very harsh tone. " Who tthe hell are you speaking? " Manyata said angrily because she hated stupid prank calls. " You'll know very soon darling." the call was cut.
************
Manyata kept on thinking who must be on the phone. Who tried to play a fool with Yuvraani Manyata? Her anger was increasing. When she heard a light knock on her door. Komal entered with some milk for her dearest daughter. " Hey beta, how was your day/ " Komal asked Manyata. ' Good actually very good. We signed a deal with the Batra group of comapanies today" Manyata said happily. " Beta don't you have anything else to talk about? " Komal asked her. " I do have mum. But I'm too tired can I rest my head on your lap? " Manyata asked her childishly. "Ocourse beta." Manyata rested her head on Komals lap. Komal while playing with her hair said " Beta, do you know how happy and proud I feel when somebody praises you? " " I know mum. You're the best mother ever " Manyata said as she was going to sleep any minute.
Precap: " Manyata" that's was the only thing he could say. He hit him as hard as he could. Manyata was lying down there in the heavy down pour.
