Manorama Pov:
What had happened to me? What’s wrong with me? Heyy Ayyappa! why was I behaving like that in the royal court. What If someone saw me staring at him…at Their Imperial Prince. Ohhh no no no they will surely kick me out from their kingdom.
And oh lord wait. What about him? The prince. Even he saw me staring at him and that too with so much intensity. Why did I even had to do that……..but wait I didn’t do that intently, it just happened. And one more thing, even he was staring at me with double intensity. Only if Shalini wasn’t there to pull me out from my world, I would have messed up the entire dance and made fun of myself.
Hmmm…Pranati was right though, the prince of Drupradesh are not that bad in looks…... Okk I agree, he got some looks….. Ok fine he got all the looks but, uffff this isn’t right, is it Ayyappa? My little heartu wasn’t ready for his dominant eyes to stare into my soul which was making me feel the entire zoo of butterflies in my stomach. Whyyyyyy did it had to be mee.!!
I was whining like a small kid while talking to Ayyappa on the palace’s terrace. After the performance, I had lost all my guts to stand there infront of him for anymore seconds so I ran up the hallway here to the terrace. The moon was beautiful up here.
I was blabbering to my ownself when I turned around and “Ohh my god” I was stunned to find him standing right there infront of me again staring into my soul through my eyes. “ Thank-you soo much Ayyappa.. only this was left” I internally said in a sarcastic manner.
“Ahem!” I coughed a little bit and then broked his trance. “Umm sorry Yuvraj. I was just strolling around to get some fresh air after the performance. Now with your permission I take my leave” saying this I bowed a little, ready to take my leave when he took a step closer to me resting his both hands on each side and trapped me between him and the railing. His height was making me feel more petite infront of him. Oh no, Oh no no no no .. I started panicking. What if he had planned on taking revenge from me for looking at him directly. No one in the kingdom even dared to do this and me no no no I literally stared at him. Like ughh Mano what is wrong with you??! But then suddenly...
“Naam kya hai apka?” he asked me in a deep manly voice. “Ji..ji k..kya” and I was there, stuttering like a scaredy cat.
“Apka naam..” “Mano…Humara Matlab hai Kamini. Apne sabha mei suna hoga.” I answered him gathering him all my courage and further said. “Dehkiye Yuvraj, hum jante hai ki hume bhari sabha mei apko aise nazro mei nazre daal kar nhi dekhna chaiye tha, pranatu hume wo jaan kar nhi kiya. Humse bhul hi gayi hume Kripaya shama kare. Hum aapse vada karte hai ki iske baad hum apke nazro ke samne bhi nhi ayenge. Satya mei hum apne kritya ke liye sharminda hai.” In one go tightly closing my eyes I got it all out infront of him with all sincerity. Moments passed but I couldn’t hear anything from his side so I decided to open my eyes. Slowly I opened my eyes only to see him holding his mischievous smile that soon bursted out in laughter.
He looks even more handsome while laughing…. I thought. No no come back to the earth Mano back to the earth.
“Kya aap humesha se hi itni masum aur Dari hui ho ya yeh hume dekhne ke wajha se hua hai. Waise isme koi nayi baat nhi hogi yaadi aap hume dekh kar Mohit hi gayi hogi. Rajya ki saari auratey humse Mohit hai. Haha aap badi hi mazedar cheez ho”
This Mann!!!!! Here my heart was beating in fear that he will make me leave the kingdom due to the offence, but here he is, making a joke of me. What does he even thinks of himself. Can’t he even think about someone who is standing right infront of him, all scared and frightened.
I looked up at him with rage filling me up as I asked him with my lips tight. “Yadi aap aapki adnya ho toh kya mei apne kaksh mei jaa sakti hu? YvRaJ”
“Avashya parantu aapne abhi tak aapka naam nhi bataya Mano…” he again asked in a expecting and knowing tone.
"Hume bataya toh tha Kamini. Kamini naam hai humara." I answered him in a confusing yet done voice.
"Hn hn parantu hume apka sabha naam nhi Janna. Hume apka Asli naam Janna hai."
“Yadi apko humara naam Janne mei itni hi betabi hai toh swayam kasht kare aur pata lagaye. Hume nhi batana apko humara naam. Aapke ke liye hum keval ek rajya nartaki hai jiska naam Kamini hai. Apko Yadi hume bulana hai toh Kamini bulaye. Adnya de.” I said this to him in a little arrogant voice forgetting for a moment who he was.
The regret of talking to him in that way had started to filling in me. Why do I mess up. No, I don’t its just him. He is so chaotic that I also loose my calm and everything goes wrong. Hey Ayyappa please please please I beg you, keep me away from this devil. It will be a lot of help to me. Please Ayyappa, I’m your favourite child, right.
Just hope that atleast today’s night will go peaceful. Thinking about today’s entire day I returned to my chamber. The bed was set it was only me who had to lay there. Changing from my attire I wore a soft cotton loose pants with a soft kurta on top and soon sleep took over me.
