Prince Rishabh was searching for Madhu but it was not a easy task but suddenly he heard a loud voice of barking , Prince Rishabh started for looking for the animal and suddenly a big hound stiriked him. Prince Rishabh started struggling for his life. Then there was a shout ,"Tara , Stop it !!". The hound stopped and moved back . Prince Rishabh got up and looked in surprise . "Madhu!" He shouted. "Rishab what are you doing here !! " she asked."I came in search of you Madhu , how could i live you after knowing your life was in danger bcoz of saving my life". Madhu dint know what to say she just nod her head. Then Rishabh asked "Do you know this hound?" "She is my pet Tara , I heard you were locked up by the king?" . "Yeah ! I escaped my mom helped me"."So you are going to come with me now i guess, as it is very dangerous to wander in the forest . Rishabh looked at her and smiled , this girl always surprised him "You always help dont you ", "I don't think so"."But I do ".
Later they started for Madhus cottage. On the way to cottage they talked about many things about there lives. Rishab said about his life in the palace. Madhu said about her life also she used to grow vegetables and sell them for the leaving , she had a younger brother named Sikander whom she calls sikky , rishab could understand form her talks that she is very protective about him . Madhus parents died when she was very small. They reached madhus cottage it was small but a very beautiful , Rishabh met Sikky and they become friends instantly.
Madhu, Rishabh and Sikky were living happily in the cottage . Rishabh was finding it very hard to adjust but he was trying . Rishabh wanted to send message to his mother but he had no idea whom to trust with the message but Rishabh was enjoying his stay here . He had made a very nice bond with Sikky. Madhu and Rishabh spended most of the time together, there favorite spot was sitting near the river . Rishabh enjoyed the natural beauty very much as when in palace he was not allowed to go out of the palace. Rishabh was falling hard for Madhu but was scared to tell , he was new to this feelings and he feared rejection.
A week passed by everything was going smoothly. The next day Rishabh woke up a little early. He freshened himself and went to madhu , she was not there in the house .He went to search for her only to find madhu practicing with sword in the backyard.
"Madhubala... Ahaan! practicing early in the morning" he said a bit loudly so madhu could hear her. Madhu gave him a quick nod and continued . Rishabh took a sword from the stand and went to her . She dint notice him coming and rishabh suddenly blocked her sword "Want to fight ?" he asked. "Sure", she replied .Madhu gave him a tough battle that for once he thought he needed more practice. But he did not give yield to his thoughts and grabbed the hand which she held the sword and went to her back and pulled her in this process madhus sword dropped from here hand. Rishabh pulled madhu more closer to him. he dropped the sword down and and moved her hair and kissed her neck. Madhu started breathing heavily in mean while Rishabh set her hand a bit lose, Madhu took the oppurtunity and pushed him and ran a little away and said "Not so easily , Rishabh" she ran into the forest . Rishabh shouted "Madhu! Wait" he ran after her. At last madhu got tired and stopped near a tree. "Tired" rishabh asked coming nearer to her ."rishabh stop" she said. He started coming nearer to her and madhu started moving back until her back touched the tree. Rishabh put his hand on her sides . "Rishabh! What are ..." but before she could tell any other word Rishabh kissed her . After the kiss madhu ran to the cottage .
Sikky was waiting for them at the breakfast ,"Where were you ?" he asked . "We went for a walk!!", "How long ? I took Tara for a walk and came back, lets hurry i am very hungry!! " They started the breakfast only sikky and rishabh were talking , madhus was silent but the smile and the blush never left Madhus face.
That day in afternoon SIkky said he will go to sell the vegetables but madhu declined his offer and went to sell the vegetables in disguise .Sikky was in a very bad mood , rishab saw this and tried to cheer him up . He brought two cups of tea with him and sat with sikky and asked "Why are you upset ?" "Madhu di always behaves with me as if i am a kid , why doesn't she understand I also want to live my own life." Rishab was shocked he never thought that sikky was feeling suffocated with madhu's care. .Sikky again said "Dont you think Madhu di should let me free now? I have grown up!!" "She wouldnt Sikky because she cares for you, You are her only family." "I know that , But why does sound as if you care for my sister more than i do .Have you fallen in love with her?" "Yes ,I have fallen in love who wouldn't love her , she is such a pure soul ." Then Sikky replied "Thats good because after hearing your confession , i have stooped feeling bad about my decision. She wouldn't be left alone now." "Which decision Sikky?" Rishab asked. "I have decided to leave this kingdom and go to a different kingdom and start living there next month , if Madhu decides to come with me , it is good or else I am leaving her !!" Rishab was shocked,"Why Sikky why do you want to leave this kingdom?" "Because I am married and I want to live my life with the girl." "What!!When??" rishab asked. " 3 months ago i met her in the neighboring kingdom and i fell in love with her , i was scared to tell madhu di and she was scared to tell her family. So we decided to get married secretly, later her parents fixed her marriage somewhere which is going to happen next month so , she is going to run away from her home and come to me with in a week from now ". Just then madhu came back."Rishab came inside i have to talk to you something very important." Then she said something to sikky and went inside to rishab.
Rishab came inside the cottage. Madhu was looking very worried , Rishab asked "What is the matter Madhu you look very worried?" "Rishab , i came to know that the king was attacked yesterday!! you need to go back rishab your father needs you." Rishab was shocked and worried for his father."Rishab i think it is same person who tried to kill you that day . He was saying about taking revenge from your dad as he killed his son. You need to go back Rishab." "Yes , I will go back but what if something happens with you !!" "Nothing will happen with me rishabh, this place is very well hidden . Nothing happened till now , we will be safe !!" "Ohk , i will leave tonight" rishab moved forward and cupped madhus face and said "Madhu please be safe don't go out of the cottage always keep Tara with you .Let Sikky do the work,I cannot bear if something happens to you". Madhu looked in Rishabhs eyes they were full of love but this couldn't happen he was prince who will soon be a king and she was just a ordinary girl. "Your Majesty , you should go back as soon as possible , let me remind you that you are going to be engaged Prince Rishabh." "No Madhu , How can i marry someone whom I haven't ever met?" "So ,whatever you are going to marry arent you?"."No , I am not going to marry anyone except you , UNDERSTAND" Rishabh shouted in anger . "Your Majesty you shouldn't disobey the kings order and get married to the Princess!" madhu said with tears in her eyes."How can i marry someone else when I love you madhu!!" Rishab said.
At that moment Sikky entered and said"Madhu di , I have brought a horse for rishabs journey as you said." "Prince Rishab, you need to start your journey to get to the palace before sunrise". All the preparations for rishabs journey were done .Sikky came to Rishabh and said,"I never knew you were Prince Rishab."Come on sikky you are my friend , A best friend i have ever found." Then rishabh turned to madhu and hugged her, " I Love You madhu and i will surely come back for you." Madhu dint say anything nor respond to the hug. Rishab left , madhu kept starring in the direction where Rishab went with continuous tears flowing from her eyes.
