She said, lifting a hand out of the water and landing it on his shoulder.
Sumedh : I feel I should not look at the princess of Kingdom this way.
Mallika : this way?
Sumedh : uhm...
Mallika : you need not be uncomfortable, Sumedh. We can simply talk as friends would.
Sumedh : it's an honor, Your Highness.
Mallika : Your Highness? Is that something a friend would say?
Sumedh : No, but you are princess madam.
She laughed and shook his shoulder.
Mallika : Truly, be loose. We are friends now. I am worthy of your friendship.
Sumedh smiled at her smile and nodded.
He wanted to follow her order.
Sumedh : if you called me a friend, Your Highness, may I ask a question?
Mallika : of course.
Sumedh : why have you bathed three days when I was there? Sorry to ask madam.
Mallika : Ah I only wish you won't ask me this but....it's very simple.
Sumedh : what?
Mallika : you think it's easy to be a princess.
Sumedh : of course it is. You can do anything.
Mallika : no I cannot , I can't love someone in my life.
Sumedh : but it make you safe, nobody can come to you without your permission.
Mallika : even with my permission I don't feel anyone dare to come close to me. It's so bad to feel everyone loves someone around me and me.... I have no life.
Sumedh : I didn't thought that way madam.
Mallika : you know I did not plan it, but I saw you here on that first day.
She looked him in the eye.
Mallika : I found you quite attractive to watch just like you are famous for your looks, so I chase such small pleasures as these when I cannot have the greater pleasure. You know the one I mean. I thought God sent you here for me only.
He is shocked and his ears and cheeks turn red.
