Chapter 3 part 2
Jalal was made to come back to his senses by hameeda who did not miss jalal staring at jodha.she smiled to herself and said
Hameeda-jalal agar apka hukm ho to hum kuch nazrane prastut karna chahte hain.
Jalal-beshak ammi jaan.hum bhi yahi soch rahe the.
Jalal (to servant)-ammijaan ke chune huye nazrano ko prastut kiya jaye.
The servant nodded his head in approval and went out
All this while jalal kept stealing looks at jodha.jodha too looked at jalal a few times but for a different purpose altogether .she was observing jalal very well.she had to start thinking about a plan before it was too late.
The servant re- entered the court with several other servants.all of them had thalis in their hands with gifts sitting atop.
Seeing this Hameeda stood up and asked jalal to give everyone their gifts.
The rajvanshis stood up one by one,collected their gifts and thanked both Hameeda and jalal.now it was jodha's turn for receiving her gift.she walked up to jalal and put her hands forward.jalal took the thali from hameeda and put it in jodha's hand.it was a green outfit with a heavy neck piece..he did not move his eyes from her face.jodha could see jalal looking at her and felt a bit uncomfortable.she looked down ,avoiding jalals face.jalal deliberately touched jodha's hand while giving her gift.jodha was puzzled and looked up meeting his eyes.her eyes grew double in size as she looked at jalal.jalal laughed in his head,quite happy to see jodha's reaction.jodha snatched the thali from his hand and moved back to her seat.
Raja bharmal also presented some gifts to the Mughals.after a good one hour of exchanging gifts ,hammeda asked everyone to rest for a while.
Hameeda-Hume lagta hain ki ab sabko thodi der aaram karna chahiye.aur khaas kar shivani ko.(shivani was not paying attention to hameeda.she was in her own world,looking here and there for mirza.
Jalal- zaroor. Jaane se pehle hum aapko yah batana chahte hain ki aaj sham ek jashn manaya jayege,mirza aur shivani ke nigah ki khushi mein jisme sabhi ko shamil hona hain.
Everyone agreed and took jalals leave .hameeda asked a servant to escort everyone to their rooms.the court was dismissed and jalal decided to follow jodha.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Everybody had descended to their respective rooms except jodha.she could not rest knowing that she had a big duty to perform.she was moving back and forth,thinking what to do when jalal appeared.this left jodha surprised.
Jalal-adab raj kumari.apne hojre ko chod aap bahar kya kar rahi hain.
