Very good part dear.I'll comment in details later.

'Nandani, Mama ke leye yaha bet ka hilna math aacha'

'Aacha Mama'

'Meri pyari se gorya rani, tum aaj such mein pari dekti ho' Sanyogita said as she kissed her daughter on the head after settling her on the bed.As she gazed at her daughter Sanyogita couldn't help but think that her husband really was great at everything, even when it came to choosing women's clothing because her Nandani looked exactly like the 'pari' that her father called her. The dress and jewlerry Prithvi had brought completing each other and their daughters colouring perfectly making her seem like a little sparkling pink fairy. Making sure that Nandani was sitting safely on the bed and occupied with her dolls, Sanyogita moved over to her dressing table to finish getting her self ready.

Sitting down on the stool Sanyogita separated her hair into two sections and then picked up her hair brush and then holding one section of hair in her hand started to run the brush through it, while her mind drifted off. She was thinking about her sister and even though she was happy that she had met her own rajkumar she was still sad to think about her not being here everyday. She remembered the first time that she had stepped into this Mehel as the new queen and how nervous and scared she had been until Pratha had come over to her and turned to Prithvi and said 'Bhaiya, humari bhabi co gar ana ke shukriya' before hugging her within a inch of her life, and then she remembered Pratha helping her and Prithvi with their anniversary gifts, her excitement at the news of Sanyogitas pregnancy, the smile on her face at being the first one other than her and Prithvi to hold Nandani and Sanyogita thought there were a lots of other memories and in fact it was thanks to her that they were all a family today.There were hundreds of other memories of Pratha that Sanyogita had but she knew that it was time to let Pratha go and find her own happy ending but it was still upsetting for her so she couldn't imagine how it must be for Prithvi who had raised her as is his own daughter.

With a sigh Sanyogita put the comb down and lifted her eyes up into the mirror and saw Prithvi standing on the other side of the room watching her. Smiling in the mirror she called him over to her.

'Sanyogita thum kya soch rahi thi' Prithvi asked her as he came over to her and dropped a kiss on her head.

'Hum Pratha ke soch mei thi' Sanyogita told him as she picked up her sindoor to apply it. Prithvi let her pick up the sindoor but before she could put it on took it out of her hair and standing behind her he bent his body of her head and then with his eyes locked with Sanyos in the mirror he applied the sindoor to her forehead. Feeling butterflys in her stomach as she watched him apply her sindoor, Sannyogita was amazed that even such an ordinary task could still make her feel like a shy girl and because she knew that her and Prithvi tended to get lost in their own world she broke eye contact with him and went to stand up.

When Sanyogita broke eye contact with him and started to push her stool back Prithvi was a little disappointed but knew that today was about Pratha and not him and Sanyogita but tonight it would be just them he thought with a smile. Seeing the look on his face Sanyogita stated to ask him about it but decided against it, and instead went over to Nandani.

They couldn't be real. That was Prithvis first thought as he saw Nandani and Sanyogita standing together in their new outfits for the first time. They looked like angles, the clothes and jewellery making them sparkle even more than normal, the soft curls framing their faces and the glow on their faces sounding them with an ethereal light that made them seem out of this world. Prithvi knew in that moment that he was the luckest man in the world to have these two wonderful women in his life. Seeing his daughter sitting there all dressed up like a little angel next to her mother Prithvi realised that the day would soon come that his daughter would be sitting there next to her mother in a wedding outfit ready to say goodbye to them, feeling a little overwhelmed Prithvi felt a tear slip out but he didn't even try and stop it because he wanted Sanyogita to see how he felt. Watching the tear run down the side of his face Sanyogita smilled and thanked her fates that she had been destined to have such a lovely and caring husband, hugging her daughter she told him

'Jaha bi zindagi mein Nandani or Pratha hai un ka dil tho hamesha yaha Delhi or teri pass mein rahe ge', making him aware that she knew what he was thinking about.

Pleased with her words Prithvi decided that they should go and see the other princess in their lives before she started to worry that they had forgotten about her. Walking over to the bed he picked up his daughter and settled her on his shoulders carefully making sure that her dress was okay. Once she was settled he turned to Sanyogita and asked her if she was ready, and waiting until she had nooded he took her hand and they made there way out of the room hand in hand.

Pratha was pacing in her room and wondering where her family was she was surprised her brother hadn't come by as he was usually the first person she saw on her birthday and not wanting to break that tradition she hadn't left her room all morning and had instead spent it pacing and worrying, so when she turned and saw her brother, sister and neice she was relived.

'Bhaiya thum kaha the; Pratha asked him as she hugged him and took his blessing.

Laughing at the look on her face, the same one that she had used on him when she was younger and he had forgotten a play date with her because he was busy, Prithvi was glad that somethings hadn't changed. Holding his ears he apologised and asked her what his punshiment was. Laughing at her brothers antics Pratha hugged him.

'Aaj ko saza nahi chiye hum ko Bhaiya sirf tere arshivad' Pratha told him seriously.

'Humara arshivad humesh teri saath hai' Prithvi told her in a equally serious tone of voice, and then teasingly said ' Es ka Maathlab tuj ko ye nahi chiye' producing a package from behind his back. Handing the package over to his sister, he watched the joy bloom on her face when she had opened it. Pratha stared down at the package for an age hadly beliving that Prithvi had given it to her. Carefully taking it out of the package and opening it out Pratha saw it was a beautiful lilac and silver lengha, a three tear drop designed diamond necklace and matching bracelets. Pratha looked at her gifts and then at Sanyogita and Nandani and she knew that Prithvi had probably also given them there cloithing and jewlerry as gifts, and she was again surprised, not because she was jealous but because she was surprised yet again that her brother never treated her any different to them.

'Bhaiya in sub ke kya zaroorath thi' she asked her brother

'teri janum din ke Mubarak zarooth thi' Prithvi told her making her cry. Drying the tears in her eyes he said 'Aaj is Mehel mei sirf khushi ke aasu ho gaye, challo hum ko api ki muskaan dekaho' and smiled when she did.

'Aacha hum ko ek chota sa zaroori kam hai, hum thum ko baad mein miltha' Prithvi told her and then walking over to Sanyogita he bent his head and whispered something in her ears and waited until she had nodded before he kissed her on the head.

'Nandani, thum ko papa ke saatha yah mama ke saath raina hai' Prithvi asked his daughter and was pleased when she lifted her arms up to him. Picking her up he settled her on his side but she made it clear that she wasn't happy with that so he again lifted her onto his shoulders. Hearing laughter he turned to see his wife and sister standing arm in arm laughing at him. Shaking his head, making his daughter laugh with pleasure Prithvi looked at them and said

'Hum ko essa nahi hota ke hum Delhi ka Maharaj Hai, lagtha hai ke hum ek senka hai or ye Maharani Nandani hai'

'Bhai thuj jo paatha hai Nandani ke aage hum sub am adami hai' Pratha answered him.

'Wo tho such hai, pur jub bi humari choti see rani hum ko itney pyar se 'papa' ke kar pukarthi hai tho humara munn kartha key us ko puri duniya ke khushi de do' Prithvi told them before he walked out of the room with Nandani'

Waiting until Prithvi had left Sanyogita turned to Pratha and taking her by the hand took her over to the bathroom and told her to get changed and once she had come out she led her over to her dressing table and sat her down.

'Aaj hum apni ke behen ko saajo ge' Sanyogita told her as she picked up a comb and started to comb her hair. As she combed her her hair Sanyogita decided to try Prithvi's plan.

'Pratha hum ko tuj se koi zaroori baath karni hai' Sanyogiita said to Pratha

'Kya hai Bhabi, jo bi hai kedo' Pratha answered

'Pratha ub thum javan ho gaye ho, or tere bhaiya ne teri shaadi ka fezala kar deya hai, or un no ney Rajkumar Arjun ko pasand hai'

Pratha didn't know what to say her first throught was happiness thinking of Samar and becoming his wife but at Sanyogita's next word she felt nothing but sadness but couldn't say anything because she would never go against her brothers decision.

'Pratha thuj ko Rajkuma Arjun pasand hai' Sanyogita asked Pratha pretending not to notice the sadness in her eyes and on her face.

'Bhaiya co pasand hai tu hum ko bi pasand hai' Pratha answered, not surprisingly as Sanyogita knew the bond that existed between brother and sister, but she needed to know how Pratha felt about Samar Singh.

'Pratha thuj ko maloom hai ke chumki ne hum ko sandesh peja tha or us mei lekha tha ke Rajkumari Indravati ko Samar Singh pasand hai or us ka bhai Rajkumar Arjun Chittor mein Samar Singh ko mil aya tha' Sanyogita said and then watched as a tears appeared in Prathas eyes

Pratha couldn't belive that Samar would agree to marry Rajkumari Indravati, she didn't care that her heart was breaking and would shatter having to watch him marry someone else but she would rather it was someone who would appreciate him and love him and Pratha knew that Indravati loved no one but herself. Pratha couldn't belive that her brother and sister hadn't said anything about the marriage, because they both knew what Indravati was like, she decided that she would try and say something and save Samar.

'Bhabi, kyat hum Samar or Indravati ke rishta se khush ho' Pratha asked Sanyogita

'Nay pur thera Bhai hai or hum us ko hilaf nay ja sakthi' Sanyogita told her as she plaited her hair and tied it up into a bun style design.

'Kuy nay Bhabhi ye Samar ke zindagi ka saval hai, hum dona bhai ke saath baath kar ke un ko samaj do ge' Pratha told Sanyogita grabbing her hands

'Pur ku Pratha, Rajkumari Indravati itni bori be nay' Sanyogita told her trying to hide her smile

'Bori hai , woh Samar ko pyar khabbi nah kar pi ge' Pratha told her desperately

'Tum ko kaisa maloom hai' She replied

'Kuy hum un ko Pyar karthi ho or woh hamare tura un ko khabbi nah pyar kar sakti' Pratha said before she could stop herself.

'Aacha , tu yeah baath hai' Sanyogita said with a smile

'Nay Bhahbi, wo hum' Pratha didn't know what to say still unable to belive she had actual said it out aloud but still glad in a way that someone knew how she felt

'Bhabi, jo be Bhaiya ca pasand hai woh bi humara pasand hai, hai hum Samar Singh se pyar karti ho pur humare bhaiya humare liya pita saman hai or hum ap ke pita se kehen mano ge' Pratha told Sanyogita passionately.

Lifting Prathas face up so that she was looking at her Sanyogoita said 'Or tum Prithvi se beti jese hai or Prithvi jesa baap khabbi apni beti ka dil nay sumaga sakha hootha nay, ise liya hum nay theire liya Samar Singh chona hai' and then hugged her.

'Such Bhabi' Pratha asked her afraid to belive incase this was all just a sweet dream

'Such, Prithvi abhi Samar Singh ke pass hai' Sanyogita told her, happy to see the happiness on her sisters face.

'Challo,aaj hum thuj ko dulhan ke roop me sajaye gey' Sanyogita told her sitting her down again.

'Ha, Bhabi ek baath kehna. Hum khush hai ke humare bhaiya ne thuj se shaadi ke hai' Pratha told Sanyogita lovingly and then added on teasingly ' or us Indraveti se nay' making Sanyogita laugh.

Precap: Prithvi teasing Samar, Samar agreeing to marry Pratha.

Sorry Girls only a short update today but will hopefully post the next part tommorow😊

Recap: Sanyogita finds Prithvi to aplogise. Some nice moments together sword fighting and together in the garden on the swing. Pratha called Prithvi and Sanyogita from Bedroom window about Nandani.

Chapter 10

'BHAIYA, BHABI, Nandani..' Pratha stopped realising that her brother and sister in law where no longer there/

Prithvi and Sanyogita didn't wait for Pratha to finish already racing into the palace their hearts tormented about leaving their daughter alone and feeling guilty about taking time out for themselves. As they raced through the halls to their bedroom hand in hand Sanyogita dared to say what was on her mind

'Prithvi, Nandani...' but Prithvi cut her off straight away willing himself to believe that his little girl was fine.

'Humari Nandani ko kuch bi nahi hoga,he told bringing their joined hands up to his lips and kissing her hand.

'Ha tum teek kaha' Sanyogita agreed as they continued to race down the hallways to their bedroom.

Arriving at the entrance to their bedroom all they could see was the palace soliders and maids but Prithvi and Sanyogita could hear Chand, Pundir and Arjun. Coming into the room the crowd parted to let them through and that's when they saw Pratha and Sanjam sitting on the bed with their backs to them and stopped scared to move forward.

Pratha felt the change in the atmosphere and turned around and saw her brother and sister standing near the bed just watching. Jumping off the bed Pratha ran to her brother and sister in law.

'Bhaiya , Bhabi' she shouted as she ran to them 'Humari Nandani teek hai' she continued after taking a breath and then grabbed them in a bear hug.

'Such' Prithvi and Sanyogita said together and when Pratha nodded they grabbed each other with Pratha in the middle and just held on. Realising that they were probably suffocating Pratha they released her and then holding hands moved towards the bed needing to see with their own eyes that their daughter, their Nandani was okay.

'Mama, Papa' Nandani said happily lifting her head up from where it was resting in Sanjum's lap.

'Nandani' Prithvi and Sanyogita cried happily racing to their daughter.

'Meri choti Junglie Billie, Tu ne aaj papa ko such mein dara theya tha' Prithvi told her lovingly as he sat down on the bed and then lifted her out of Sanjum's arms into his own and kissed her on her nose.

'Ha or mama ko bi' Sanyogita said as she tussled her daughters hair and kissed her on the head, the tears in her eyes making it difficult to say or do anything else. Sanyogita was thankful when Prithvi pulled her down on the bed next to him and brought his arm around her, so she could lean into him and take comfort in him.

'Humari beti teek hai Prithvi, tuneh apna waada pora kar diya' Sanyogita whispered to her husband.

'Nay humari beti ne hamare waada ka palan kiya hai; Prithvi told her and then forgetting that anyone else was in the room her bent forward to kiss Sanyogita on the cheek.

Watching her brother kiss his wife Pratha smiled glad that everything was back to normal, her brothers and sister were happy, her niece was okay and the person she loved, she though turning to look to her right, had shown he would be there for her during the bad times.

Coming back to reality Prithvi realised that the sun would be rising in a few hours, meaning people needed to get some sleep as tomorrow was a special day for the Mehel and he needed to speak to Sanyogita in private in order to make sure that it was even more special for them all.

' Clearing his throat to indicate he wanted to speak Prithvi watched and listened as the whole room went quite.

'Hum ko apni Maharani or Rajkumari ke saath kuch waqt akhele chiyye, isi leye thum sub jo or aram kar do, kyu ke kal ka din hum sub ke liye hass Mubarak ka din hai' Prithvi said with a smile looking straight at Pratha when he said the last line.

Pratha was shocked at what her brother had said she couldn't believe that her brother still wanted to celebrate her birthday after everything that had happened today, deciding to wait until everyone had left and then speak to Prithvi she watched them all go.

'Rajkumari Pratha kya hum thum ko tere kumrer thuk chor aw' Samar stopped to ask her. Pratha wanted to go with him just to spend a little extra time with him but she needed to speak to Prithvi more so she shook her head regretfully.

'Nay, hum ko Bhaiya or Bhabi se akhele mei baath karni hai' she told him and then watched as he left to.

Prithvi watched his sister and wondered why she hadn't left he certainly saw the longing on her face after Samar spoke to her even though she shook her head to indicate no to what he had asked, and so Prithvi decided it had to be a serious matter.

'Bhayia' Pratha asked as she came towards her brother and stopped at the foot of the bed. 'Aaj itna sub kuch ho gaya or kal tum Mehel mein jashan, kuy Bhayia' she asked her brother.

Prithvi looked at his sister and felt pride and sadness pride in the way that she had grown up to be a wonderful daughter, sister, aunty and princess but more than that she was a wonderful person both in heart and spirit but he felt sadness that their father wasn't here today to see her. Raising his hand to indicate she come forward he waited until she had come and sat down on the bed and then putting a finger under her chin he raised her face and looking straight into her shimmering eyes, eyes that were identical to his, he spoke.

'Tuj ko kya lagtha hai ke hum ap ke Pratha se kum pyar katha ho kuy ke hum ko apni Nandani hai. Nay Pratha hum ko do beti hai or hum ap ke beti ka janam fin ka jashan banao ga' Prithvi said watching the tears in his sisters eyes spill over at his word, but he continued on 'Aaj is mehel mein aasu sewiy kuch be nay tha, or hum is Mehel ki kushi lotana chatha hai, isi leye tum ja kea aram kar do' he told her as he wiped her tears away.

Throwing her arms around her brothers neck making sure she didn't hurt Nandani Pratha said 'Bbagwan kare tho hum ko thuj jese Bhaiya hur janem me mileh' and then saying bye to Sanyogita left the room so that Prithvi and Sanyogita could be alone. Walking out of their room Pratha was trying to stop the tears that had started at her brothers lovely words but was having a hard time.

'Pratha sub teek tho hai' Samar asked worriedly wondering what his friend at said to upset her so much.

'Samar hum ko is duniya mein sub se aacha bhaiya hai' she told him happily .'Lekehen thum yaha kaise' she wondered.

'Woh hum ko neend nahi...he trailed off and then decided to change direction challo, 'tuj ko neend ke zarorth hai, he said taking her hand to take her to her room. Arriving at her room Samar released her hand and saying goodnight turned and left and whislt she was getting ready for bed Pratha again thought about the man her heart had chosen for her and was glad, she just hoped that her brother would approve.

Waiting until the soldiers had shut the bedroom door after Pratha left Prithvi looked down at his daughter and was glad that she had been able to fall asleep.

'Sanyogita , tum so rahe ho' Prithvi asked needing to discuss the Samar and Pratha situation

'Nay Prithvi kya baath hai' Sanyogita asked sensing that he had something important to say.

'Hum ko maloom nahi tha kab humari choti se bena itni bari ho gaye the, lekhen aaj hum ko maloom howa, or hum ko essas howa ko hum ko usi ley ek jeeven saathi chon na' He Prithvi told her.

Sanyogita sat up straight at Prithvi's words, for she knew where her little sisters heart lay and she didn't want Pratha to feel she had to accept her brothers decision, because she knew that as much as it would break her heart Pratha would never say anything to her brother and neither would Samar Singh because they both loved her husband to much to ever go against his wishes, but Sanyogita also knew that Prithvi would never force his decision on his sister, she thought thinking of her own father and all he had done to split her and Prithvi up.

'Kya Samar Singh humari Pratha ke liyak hai' Prithvi asked her as casually as he could manage. Sanyogita was pulled out of her thoughts when Prithvi spoke, and when she heard what he said she leaned forward and kissed him on the lips she was so happy.

'Kya hum sumje key humari jungliee billie humare feslie pur khush hai' Prithvi asked her with a laugh.

'Ha both khush, pur hum ko Pratha or Samar ko bi pooch na hai or maa se be' she told him seriously.

'Aacha meri pyari billie hum Samar or tum Pratha se baath kar dena,Khush'

'Ha, itna bora din hone ke baad hum khush hai or sub tere leye hai, mere pyare Bigara raess' she said snuggling up to him.

'Teek hai tho pir tum ap ke ankhen bund kare ke saw jo' Prithvi said kissing the top of her head and pulling her tighter into his arms and only when he was sure she was asleep did he close his eyes but not before praying that nothing should happen during the remaining few hours of the night.

Guys i am so sorry but i could not post the chapter on time due to some problems with my net at home.

Chapter 11

It was to quite Sanyogita throught as she awoke the following morning, but refused to open her eyes wanting to savour the peacfullness but when she raised her arms to stretch her arms and her fists smacked into something she sat up and her eyes flew open in alarm to see what it was and the first thing she saw that morning was the sight of her lovely husband and his now very split lip.

Sanyogita watched as Prithvi opened one eye and then removed his arm from around her to raise it to touch his lips, and she continued to watch as his other eye opened when he realised that there was blood on his bottom lip.

'Prithvi thum yaha is waqt' Sanyogota asked finding it hard to believe that he was still in the same spot he had been in when she closed her eyes yesterday.

'Hum yaha nay hote, to kaun yaha hota?' Prithvi asked his wife teasingly as he wiped the blood of his lip.

'Humara yeh kena nay tha, humara kena tha key thum aaj ap ke Sena ke pass kuy nay hai' Sanyogita asked him.

'Kuy ke hum ne soocha tha ke aaj hum ap key dosri suraj se puja karo ga..'

'Dosri suraj, yeah dosri suraj kya hai' Sanyogita asked him but Prithvi continued on as if she hadn't spoken

'Lekhen hum ko kya maloom tha ke humare suraj ko dekhen mein itni hatrat hai' Prithvi said looking straight at Sanyogita and touching his swollen lip to make his point, causing her to blush.

Prithvi watched as Sanyogita's cheeks turned a lovely pink colour, making her seem even more beautiful. As he sat there admiring his wife he thought he must surely be the luckest man on earth to have such a beautiful wife, who even first thing in the morning could brighten his day with the natural glow in her cheeks which was as bright as the suns rays.

As her husband was just sitting there watching her skin turn darker and darker with her blush Sanyogita decided enough was enough.

'Prithvi, she said embarrassedly while lighting punching him on the arm to get his attention.

'Yeh kya hai Maharani, kya hum ko apni sena humari raksha sai bolan poga' Prithvi said to her.

Deciding she wasn't going to get a straight answer from him when he was in this mood Sanyogita gave up asking and made her self comfortable in his arms again.

'Jo v wajaah hai Prithvi hum thuj ke dekh kar booth khush hai' Sanyogita told him turning in his arms to hug him.

'Hum ko bi khushi hai Sanyogita jub bi hum thomari baho mein hai tub to hum ko booth kushi hai' he replied and then went to kiss her on the head and instead winced in pain. Seeing the look on Prithvi's face Sanyogita felt guilty

'Booth dard ho raha hai' She asked Prithvi.

'Nay' Prithvi answered her not wanting to see the happiness disappear from her eyes.

'Jewta' Sanyogita answered learning forward to lightly kiss him on the lips.

Not wanting her to move away Prithvi said

' tum such hai hum ko yaha bi daard hai' pointing to his right cheek. Laughing Sanyogita bent to place a kiss on his cheek.

'Or yaha bi' he said pointing to the other cheek making Sanyogita laugh even as she bent to kiss his other cheek, and so it went until she had kissed both his cheeks, his forehead, his hands and then his lips again.

'Bass Prithvi' Sanyogita said when they were both blushing bright red and her cheeks hurt from laughing so much.

'Pur Sany' Sanyogita looked up to see what had made Prithvi stop speaking and when he raised his eyebrows and moved his eyes to the right Sanyogita turned to have a look at what Prithvi was watching and saw that while her and Prithvi had been lost in their game, their daughter had woken up and was watching them.

'Papa, Mama' Nandani said trying to lift her arms out to them before realising she could only lift one arm. Seeing the look on their daughters face all the happiness from a moment again had disappeared to be replaced by sadness for their daughter. Seeing the sadness in Sanyogita's and Nandani's eyes Prithvi decided enough was enough and that this as yet unknown person had snatched enough of his families happiness and it was time that stopped letting him.

Removing his arms from around Sanyogita, he kissed her on the head and winked at her before reaching for his daughter and lifting her into his arms.

'Dekho Sanyogita, humari pari ke ankh kol gaye; sena ko hathrey ka alan kar do' Prithvi said making Sanyogita laugh and then tugged her hand and pulled her into his other arm. Then kissing first Nandani and then Sanyogita he said 'Humareya raniya pur odasi nay muskann aachi lagti hai' and then he turned and ticked in turn his wife and daughter making them both laugh and when they both turned and ticked him he joined them in laughing. Seeing the happiness in his wife and daughters eyes and hearing their laughter was like a gift from heaven for Prithvi and he knew no matter what happened in life as long as his girls were laughing that would be enough for him.

Scooting along the bed Sanyogita stopped to watch her husband and daughter together. She loved watching Prithvi with Nandani because no matter what they were doing, be it playing hide and seek or having a pillow flight like now, she knew that Prithvi would always protect Nandani from harm, but more than that he was teaching her to have no fear and was letting her be a normal little girl just like he had done with Pratha. Sometimes she wished that she had had the same releationship with her father that Nandani and Prithvi had. Thinking of her father Sanyogita wondered how her mother and father were, it had been two weeks since she had received her mothers last letter, which she thought was strange as she sould have received a new one two days ago but the decieded in all the panic yesterday it must have been misplaced and she made a mental note to speak to one of the maids later.

'Sanyogita, Kon ko gaye thi thum' Prithvi asked, bringing her out of her thoughts. Laughing embarrassedly Sanyogita shook her said and 'Hum tho yaha e hey'. Prithvi knew that she had been thinking of Maharaj Jaichand because although she didn't no it everytime she thought of her parents a auro of such sadness radiated from her that even when there was a smile on her face the pain hidden deep in her heart always should through the slight dimming of light in her eyes. Prithvi thought about how true it was that the way to the soul is through the eyes.

'Kuch kena tha' Sanyogita asked him while playing with Nandani. 'Ha kuch Kanne ko mille ga. Nandani ko pook lagi hai' he answered her

'Aacha, Nandani ko pook lagi hai yah such mein Prithvi ko pook lagi hai' Sanyogita asked her husband with raised eyebrows.

'Nandani ko' Prithvi answered her and tried not to laugh when both his and Nandani's stomachs made a rumbling noise.

'To such mein app ke bab ke beti hain' Sanyogita told her daughter laughingly kissing her on her upturned nose.

'Aacha tum Nandani ke pass beto or hum nashte ka intazam karti ho' she told Prithvi.

After calling for the maids and arranging for breakfast to be brought to their bedroom, Sanyogita decided to freshen up.Looking over at the bed she saw Prithvi and Nandani were occupied and so picked up her towel and robe and headed to the bathroom.Patting her face with the towel as she came out of the bathroom Sanyogita felt herself fall in love with her husband all over again.

Their daughter was sitting up in the middle of the bed like a queen propped up with the pillows and her darling husband was sitting next to her and he had a glass of juice in one hand and was using the other one to raise Nandani's neck so that she could drink the juice and she continued to watch as her daughter decided that she had had enough and closed her mouth turning her head from side to side making the curls in her hair fly as she did so. Sanyogita saw the danger and she tried to warn Prithvi but wasn't quick enough and instead she watched in amusement as the juice remaining in the glass landed all over her husbands clothes and her daughters hair. Seeing the identical look of horror on Prithvi and Nandani's face Sanyogita couldn't stop herself from smiling which somehow turned into a full blown laugh.

Hearing Sanyogita's laugh Prithvi looked up in time to see his wife put her hand in front of her mouth to try and stop her self from laughing even harder. Prithvi wanted to get upset after all he was all wet and sticky but the truth was that it was the first time since yesterday that he had heard Sanyogita laugh properly and he was more than happy to be the reason for her laughter, and he had to admit that when he looked down at his beautiful daughters lovely but now very wet and sticky hair and saw the pout on her lips he wanted to laugh as well. Deciding that one of them would have to be the grown up Prithvi picked his sticky daughter up and carried her over to her mother and carefully deposited her in Sanyogitas arms

'Thum Nandani ko naha do or hum app ko' Prithvi told her and then feeling naughty he grabbed hold of Sanyogita and hugged her to him so that their daughter was at her front and he was behind her and he only let go once Sanyogita was as sticky as him and Nandani and then he ran out the room as fast as his legs could carry him laughing when she shouted 'Bigraa raess', but unable to resist he said 'is bar hum jeeth gaya mere junglie billie'

Sanyogita looked down at her daughter and grabbing her nose playfully said 'tere papa bi' and laughed when her daughter grabbed her nose back and said 'tere papa' to Sanyogita on her way back to the bathroom.

Coming out of the bathroom a short while later with her daughter following behind her Sanyogita wasn't surprised to see Prithvi already waiting there for them and looking handsome in his sky blue outfit, the sleeveless top helping to display his muscles, and the wet hair falling over his eye making him looking devastatingly handsome.

Seeing her father Nandani went running pass Sanyogita to Prithvi, her wet hair leaving water droplets across the floor. Prithvi picked up his daughter and set her safely on the bed and then bending his head to one side he pretended to study her before reaching out to touch her her curly hair which was in a wild mess and said 'Sanyogita humari beti aag such mein Jungliee Billie dikthe bi hai' making Sanyogita laughed as she made her way over to the bed, and taking a towel used it to pat Nandani's hair down before brushing her hair through. When she had finished she moved out of the way so that Prithvi could see his daughter. Smiling Prithvi hugged his daughter 'Humari pari wapas agaye'.

Taking advantage of her daughter preoccupation with her father Sanyogita moved over to her dressing table and bending her head to the side she sat down to dry her hair. When she had finished and was sitting straight back up in her chair she looked into the Mirror and realised that Prithvi had been watching her, similing shyly she picked up the brush and started to run it through her hair,both of them watching each other in the mirror. When she was finished she turned away from the table and got up to select an outfit for her daughter. Going over to her daughters clothes chest she opened it and let out a gasp as she saw the lovely baby pink and white lengha, with matching bangels and jewellery. 'Prithvi, yeah sub kya hai' she asked turning to Prithvi.

'Sirf ek chota sa thofa ek bab se un key beti ke leye' Prithvi said and then moved from one foot to the other before shyly handing Sanyogita a package from behind his back 'or yeah hai thofa ek patni ko us ke Pati se'. Taking the package from Prithvi, Sanyogita unwrapped it slowly and then nearly dropped it when she saw what was inside it.

It was lovely, a turquoise blue coloured lengha with silver embrodiary and diamond adornments, the bangels were an eye catching mixture of blue and silver in colour with 6 diamons set in each one,the ring a large turquoise diamond sourrounded by 12 small diamonds set in a heart shape, but even that wasn't what had made her gasp that was the last time, a diamond necklace but not just any necklace. There were three interlinking heart shaped large turquoise diamonds , each with three hanging tear drop white diamonds while the earings each had one turquoise and one white heart shaped diamonds. With tears in her eyes Sanyogita said ' yeah chota sa tufa nay hai Prithvi'

'Sanyogita jo khushi tho ney hum ko de us ke samney yeah tho booth chota hai'

'Lekhen Prithvi aaj Pratha ka din hai, hum yeah pano ge tho Pratha kya soche gey'

'Humari bena waise nahi hai, pur pir hum ne humari Pratha ke leye bi ek thofa hai' he told her smiling. 'Aacha ye sub choro or hum ko batha humare thofe kaise lage'

Hugging him Sanyogita kissed him on the cheek 'booth, booth pyare, bilkol humare pati jese' she told him making him laugh.

'Aacha Maharaja p both ye pyar war ho gaya, hum ko batho key thu ne kuch soch hai Pratha or Samar ke baar me' Sanyogita asked him seriously

'Hum ko ek yogna hai' Prithvi informed her and then went on to explain further.

'Wah Maharaj, kya yogna hai' Sanyogita told him once again impressed with her husbands skilful brain.

Glad that Sanyogita had agreed to his plan Prithvi decided that it was time that they put it into action.'Sanyogita, tum or Nandani thayare ho kar oa' he told her before moving to leave the room.

'Humare Maharaj ne addash diya tu hum kaise na us ka palan karo' she told him cheekly making him laugh.

Watching Prithvi go Sanyogita looked down at her and Nandani's new dresses and smilled in happiness.

Chapter 12

'Nandani, Mama ke leye yaha bet ka hilna math aacha'

'Aacha Mama'

'Meri pyari se gorya rani, tum aaj such mein pari dekti ho' Sanyogita said as she kissed her daughter on the head after settling her on the bed.As she gazed at her daughter Sanyogita couldn't help but think that her husband really was great at everything, even when it came to choosing women's clothing because her Nandani looked exactly like the 'pari' that her father called her. The dress and jewlerry Prithvi had brought completing each other and their daughters colouring perfectly making her seem like a little sparkling pink fairy. Making sure that Nandani was sitting safely on the bed and occupied with her dolls, Sanyogita moved over to her dressing table to finish getting her self ready.

Sitting down on the stool Sanyogita separated her hair into two sections and then picked up her hair brush and then holding one section of hair in her hand started to run the brush through it, while her mind drifted off. She was thinking about her sister and even though she was happy that she had met her own rajkumar she was still sad to think about her not being here everyday. She remembered the first time that she had stepped into this Mehel as the new queen and how nervous and scared she had been until Pratha had come over to her and turned to Prithvi and said 'Bhaiya, humari bhabi co gar ana ke shukriya' before hugging her within a inch of her life, and then she remembered Pratha helping her and Prithvi with their anniversary gifts, her excitement at the news of Sanyogitas pregnancy, the smile on her face at being the first one other than her and Prithvi to hold Nandani and Sanyogita thought there were a lots of other memories and in fact it was thanks to her that they were all a family today.There were hundreds of other memories of Pratha that Sanyogita had but she knew that it was time to let Pratha go and find her own happy ending but it was still upsetting for her so she couldn't imagine how it must be for Prithvi who had raised her as is his own daughter.

With a sigh Sanyogita put the comb down and lifted her eyes up into the mirror and saw Prithvi standing on the other side of the room watching her. Smiling in the mirror she called him over to her.

'Sanyogita thum kya soch rahi thi' Prithvi asked her as he came over to her and dropped a kiss on her head.

'Hum Pratha ke soch mei thi' Sanyogita told him as she picked up her sindoor to apply it. Prithvi let her pick up the sindoor but before she could put it on took it out of her hair and standing behind her he bent his body of her head and then with his eyes locked with Sanyos in the mirror he applied the sindoor to her forehead. Feeling butterflys in her stomach as she watched him apply her sindoor, Sannyogita was amazed that even such an ordinary task could still make her feel like a shy girl and because she knew that her and Prithvi tended to get lost in their own world she broke eye contact with him and went to stand up.

When Sanyogita broke eye contact with him and started to push her stool back Prithvi was a little disappointed but knew that today was about Pratha and not him and Sanyogita but tonight it would be just them he thought with a smile. Seeing the look on his face Sanyogita stated to ask him about it but decided against it, and instead went over to Nandani.

They couldn't be real. That was Prithvis first thought as he saw Nandani and Sanyogita standing together in their new outfits for the first time. They looked like angles, the clothes and jewellery making them sparkle even more than normal, the soft curls framing their faces and the glow on their faces sounding them with an ethereal light that made them seem out of this world. Prithvi knew in that moment that he was the luckest man in the world to have these two wonderful women in his life. Seeing his daughter sitting there all dressed up like a little angel next to her mother Prithvi realised that the day would soon come that his daughter would be sitting there next to her mother in a wedding outfit ready to say goodbye to them, feeling a little overwhelmed Prithvi felt a tear slip out but he didn't even try and stop it because he wanted Sanyogita to see how he felt. Watching the tear run down the side of his face Sanyogita smilled and thanked her fates that she had been destined to have such a lovely and caring husband, hugging her daughter she told him

'Jaha bi zindagi mein Nandani or Pratha hai un ka dil tho hamesha yaha Delhi or teri pass mein rahe ge', making him aware that she knew what he was thinking about.

Pleased with her words Prithvi decided that they should go and see the other princess in their lives before she started to worry that they had forgotten about her. Walking over to the bed he picked up his daughter and settled her on his shoulders carefully making sure that her dress was okay. Once she was settled he turned to Sanyogita and asked her if she was ready, and waiting until she had nooded he took her hand and they made there way out of the room hand in hand.

Pratha was pacing in her room and wondering where her family was she was surprised her brother hadn't come by as he was usually the first person she saw on her birthday and not wanting to break that tradition she hadn't left her room all morning and had instead spent it pacing and worrying, so when she turned and saw her brother, sister and neice she was relived.

'Bhaiya thum kaha the; Pratha asked him as she hugged him and took his blessing.

Laughing at the look on her face, the same one that she had used on him when she was younger and he had forgotten a play date with her because he was busy, Prithvi was glad that somethings hadn't changed. Holding his ears he apologised and asked her what his punshiment was. Laughing at her brothers antics Pratha hugged him.

'Aaj ko saza nahi chiye hum ko Bhaiya sirf tere arshivad' Pratha told him seriously.

'Humara arshivad humesh teri saath hai' Prithvi told her in a equally serious tone of voice, and then teasingly said ' Es ka Maathlab tuj ko ye nahi chiye' producing a package from behind his back. Handing the package over to his sister, he watched the joy bloom on her face when she had opened it. Pratha stared down at the package for an age hadly beliving that Prithvi had given it to her. Carefully taking it out of the package and opening it out Pratha saw it was a beautiful lilac and silver lengha, a three tear drop designed diamond necklace and matching bracelets. Pratha looked at her gifts and then at Sanyogita and Nandani and she knew that Prithvi had probably also given them there cloithing and jewlerry as gifts, and she was again surprised, not because she was jealous but because she was surprised yet again that her brother never treated her any different to them.

'Bhaiya in sub ke kya zaroorath thi' she asked her brother

'teri janum din ke Mubarak zarooth thi' Prithvi told her making her cry. Drying the tears in her eyes he said 'Aaj is Mehel mei sirf khushi ke aasu ho gaye, challo hum ko api ki muskaan dekaho' and smiled when she did.

'Aacha hum ko ek chota sa zaroori kam hai, hum thum ko baad mein miltha' Prithvi told her and then walking over to Sanyogita he bent his head and whispered something in her ears and waited until she had nodded before he kissed her on the head.

'Nandani, thum ko papa ke saatha yah mama ke saath raina hai' Prithvi asked his daughter and was pleased when she lifted her arms up to him. Picking her up he settled her on his side but she made it clear that she wasn't happy with that so he again lifted her onto his shoulders. Hearing laughter he turned to see his wife and sister standing arm in arm laughing at him. Shaking his head, making his daughter laugh with pleasure Prithvi looked at them and said

'Hum ko essa nahi hota ke hum Delhi ka Maharaj Hai, lagtha hai ke hum ek senka hai or ye Maharani Nandani hai'

'Bhai thuj jo paatha hai Nandani ke aage hum sub am adami hai' Pratha answered him.

'Wo tho such hai, pur jub bi humari choti see rani hum ko itney pyar se 'papa' ke kar pukarthi hai tho humara munn kartha key us ko puri duniya ke khushi de do' Prithvi told them before he walked out of the room with Nandani'

Waiting until Prithvi had left Sanyogita turned to Pratha and taking her by the hand took her over to the bathroom and told her to get changed and once she had come out she led her over to her dressing table and sat her down.

'Aaj hum apni ke behen ko saajo ge' Sanyogita told her as she picked up a comb and started to comb her hair. As she combed her her hair Sanyogita decided to try Prithvi's plan.

'Pratha hum ko tuj se koi zaroori baath karni hai' Sanyogiita said to Pratha

'Kya hai Bhabi, jo bi hai kedo' Pratha answered

'Pratha ub thum javan ho gaye ho, or tere bhaiya ne teri shaadi ka fezala kar deya hai, or un no ney Rajkumar Arjun ko pasand hai'

Pratha didn't know what to say her first throught was happiness thinking of Samar and becoming his wife but at Sanyogita's next word she felt nothing but sadness but couldn't say anything because she would never go against her brothers decision.

'Pratha thuj ko Rajkuma Arjun pasand hai' Sanyogita asked Pratha pretending not to notice the sadness in her eyes and on her face.

'Bhaiya co pasand hai tu hum ko bi pasand hai' Pratha answered, not surprisingly as Sanyogita knew the bond that existed between brother and sister, but she needed to know how Pratha felt about Samar Singh.

'Pratha thuj ko maloom hai ke chumki ne hum ko sandesh peja tha or us mei lekha tha ke Rajkumari Indravati ko Samar Singh pasand hai or us ka bhai Rajkumar Arjun Chittor mein Samar Singh ko mil aya tha' Sanyogita said and then watched as a tears appeared in Prathas eyes

Pratha couldn't belive that Samar would agree to marry Rajkumari Indravati, she didn't care that her heart was breaking and would shatter having to watch him marry someone else but she would rather it was someone who would appreciate him and love him and Pratha knew that Indravati loved no one but herself. Pratha couldn't belive that her brother and sister hadn't said anything about the marriage, because they both knew what Indravati was like, she decided that she would try and say something and save Samar.

'Bhabi, kyat hum Samar or Indravati ke rishta se khush ho' Pratha asked Sanyogita

'Nay pur thera Bhai hai or hum us ko hilaf nay ja sakthi' Sanyogita told her as she plaited her hair and tied it up into a bun style design.

'Kuy nay Bhabhi ye Samar ke zindagi ka saval hai, hum dona bhai ke saath baath kar ke un ko samaj do ge' Pratha told Sanyogita grabbing her hands

'Pur ku Pratha, Rajkumari Indravati itni bori be nay' Sanyogita told her trying to hide her smile

'Bori hai , woh Samar ko pyar khabbi nah kar pi ge' Pratha told her desperately

'Tum ko kaisa maloom hai' She replied

'Kuy hum un ko Pyar karthi ho or woh hamare tura un ko khabbi nah pyar kar sakti' Pratha said before she could stop herself.

'Aacha , tu yeah baath hai' Sanyogita said with a smile

'Nay Bhahbi, wo hum' Pratha didn't know what to say still unable to belive she had actual said it out aloud but still glad in a way that someone knew how she felt

'Bhabi, jo be Bhaiya ca pasand hai woh bi humara pasand hai, hai hum Samar Singh se pyar karti ho pur humare bhaiya humare liya pita saman hai or hum ap ke pita se kehen mano ge' Pratha told Sanyogita passionately.

Lifting Prathas face up so that she was looking at her Sanyogoita said 'Or tum Prithvi se beti jese hai or Prithvi jesa baap khabbi apni beti ka dil nay sumaga sakha hootha nay, ise liya hum nay theire liya Samar Singh chona hai' and then hugged her.

'Such Bhabi' Pratha asked her afraid to belive incase this was all just a sweet dream

'Such, Prithvi abhi Samar Singh ke pass hai' Sanyogita told her, happy to see the happiness on her sisters face.

'Challo,aaj hum thuj ko dulhan ke roop me sajaye gey' Sanyogita told her sitting her down again.

'Ha, Bhabi ek baath kehna. Hum khush hai ke humare bhaiya ne thuj se shaadi ke hai' Pratha told Sanyogita lovingly and then added on teasingly ' or us Indraveti se nay' making Sanyogita laugh.

Precap: Prithvi teasing Samar, Samar agreeing to marry Pratha.
