The Lost Princess

Chapter 7

I was a single child. I never had a sibling. But I saw people who had siblings. Sofia have an elder brother, who is more like a friend or crime partner to her. I used to feel jealous of other girls who had big brother , who protect them and play with them all the time. I had imagined myself having a big brother. And now with so much of God's grace, I have one too. But ,

This
This man

This man as a brother feels like a nightmare. He don't look like he would entertain my games. He doesn't look like he would give me a bear hug whenever i feel low. He doesn't look sweet and comfy big brother types.No, he looks quite opposite . He look scary. He have an aura that screams power and money. Now when he is standing infront of me I couldn't help up squirm in my place.

Gosh Ira way to embrass yourself.

What should I do? Should I introduce myself ?But shouldn't he already know me , now that he is in my house claiming I am his sister ? I was in my thoughts when a deep voice interrupted by a voice .

"Look up"

Huh

"Huh" I look up in his eyes found him staring at me intensely .

Huh, what did I do big brother? Big brother? It feels weird calling him that

"A Rajput should always look into that eyes and talk"

Huh

"Huh" God, how many times did I do that.Its like we are singing popular by weekend

Money on top of me, money on top of her (uh-huh)

Money on top of me, money on top of her (uh-huh)
Uh huh
A giggle left my mouth, when I thought of him singing such song.

"You are also not attentive in a conversation, hmm I see there is alot of space for improvement. "He said looking at Disappointed

Excuse me , how can this person, who is also my self-proclaimed brother judge me this fast, when we just met and when he was saying something I don't understand. I understand i was also not into my best behavior but he had no right to judge me. And bro also had a audacity to pass a comment. Wow

"Look Rudransh You - " Just when I was about to give a piece of mind. This man cut me off.Huh, talk about mannerism

" Bhai or bhaiya,you can call me anything of the two , but don't call me by name, I won't tolerate such disrespect again." He said sternly.

For a minute, I was so scared , that I took a step-back and gulped. I looked at him. I raised an eyebrow at me. I nod in answer but his eyebrow doesn't go down.

"O-Okay" I said gulping

" Okay , what " He said in a low voice

"Okay B-Bhai " I said shuttering , he nod , I take this as my ceaw to leave, Why? Because I can't stand here anymore. This man over here is so scary, he can make anyone shit in their pants , I am no different.

"Go and pack your bags we are leaving "
My heart drops. Leaving already. I know I have to leave but this fast. Yes, I decided to move with them because nobody except them is willing to take me in. My own mother well actually not decided to choose her boyfriend over me. So, I decided to go with the flow. I have no choice anyway. I know if now willingly I have to go with them forcefully and I know my mother won't stop them even.But this fast , I thought I will get some time to cope with the situation but no

"Now? " I ask to confirm

" Now, go and pack your fast. We are leaving in half and hour" He said

"Okay" I move back to my room

Reaching the room , I pack my clothes in a small suitcase well I don't have many clothes, so it's fine and after some time I am done. I look around the room after I pack everything I needed .

I hate goodbyes. They are always sad. All tears and emotions.We always have go leaving behind a part of us. This goodbye is not something I am looking forward to.

Memories of past 16 years come one by one in my head. Tears started forming in my eyes. I had spend 16 years of life at this place, in this house with my mom. I remember every happy and sad moment with her. How she used to tickle me when I don't eat my food. How she just to tell me bedtime stories and tucked me to bed before kissing my forehead. How I used to play with her.

My eyes on a photo frame at my study table of me and my mom, when we went on beach on my 4 th birthday. We both are smiling looking so happy., free from the world.She was holding me looking at the camera

I pick up the photoframe and hug it close to chest , letting the realistion of leaving her forever sink in. Suddenly the door opened and there she was standing with tears in her eyes, looking so deafeted as if she had just lost her world.

She opens her arms and urging me to come. I couldn't hold back anymore and jumped in her arms, seeking Solance in her small arms.

She hugs me tight, close to her chest. I hug her back with the same force or more.

"I am sorry back ,please forgive your mamma" She cried helplessly, I hated seeing her like this. But I also don't know what to say. Why Did she not fight for me ?
Just why?

"I will miss you so much mumma " I tell her what I would really do, I will miss her so much that even i can't tell

"Mumma will miss you too baby and you can call me anytime you want mamma is also here, everytime, you feel alone there just call me .okay ?" she Tell me.

"I will mamma , I will" I said , she broke the hug and looked at me

"Now go" That's the moment I hate

"Mumma please don't let me go " I beg her . One last try. One last time. I beg her ro stop me. To stop me from going away from her.
I don't want to go away from her. I want to stay from her.

"No baby, you have to go, you have to go with them. They are your family. They are here for you. They will love you, I promise " She said

"You are my family, you were there for me when nobody was, you love me "

"Yes, but now you have to go with them and start a new life there" She Said wiping my tears, cupping my cheeks

"Without you? " I ask knowing the answer

She nod, her tears occupying her face.

"Without me" She answers breaking my last
Hope
