BORN TO RULE

[Eng] Chapter 12: Husband, Wife & Lover

After dinner, The King was walking to his room. Suddenly he stopped and squeezed the left side of his chest.

"Aaa...rrrjjj... Arjun!" he accomplished calling Arjun even with the chest pain.

Arjun, Tia, Gayatri, Praneet came running from the dining hall. Praneet and Arjun held Maharaja before he fainted.

Immediately they rushed to the hospital. They were all horrified.

"Is father alright?" Arjun asked the doctor as soon as he came out of the cabin.

"Prince, he is fine now. He had an heart attack," the doctor said.

"Heart attack..." Gayatri whispered in shock.

"It was a mild attack. That is why, he is fine now," the doctor assured.

"Can we meet him?" Tia asked.

"Yes," the doctor left.

Then they rushed inside the cabin.

His Majesty was lying on bed looking up at the ceiling. Arjun and Gayatri went on either sides of him holding each of his hands. 

"Father, you scared us!" Gayatri said wiping off a drop of tear from her eyes.

"Arreh, mad girl. Why are you crying? Nothing happened to me," Maharaja said patting on her cheek.

"Father, are you feeling alright now?" Tia asked.

"Yes, dear. I am fine. But who knows how long I will be okay...." Maharaj sighed.

"Father, don't say like this," Arjun pleaded.

"Dear, what I say doesn't really matter because things don't run according to my wishes. I have only one wish. I want to see Arjun become the King with my eyes," His Majesty smiled.

"This is not the time to discuss all these. First, you get well soon," Tia said to which Arjun nodded in agreement.

"No. Arjun's coronation must be held on the day after I get discharged from the hospital! Start the preparation, Praneet," His Majesty ordered strictly.

Praneet nodded reluctantly.

After two days
Maharaja was discharged from the hospital. As per his orders, Praneet arranged for Arjun's coronation. And from then Arjun became King Arjun from Crown Prince Arjun, which automatically made Tia Queen Tia from Princess Consort Tia.

Next day
Tia was strolling around the campus with Gayatri and her friends after the classes ended.

"I seriously never imagined that I would get a chance of hanging out with the Queen of Jaipur!" Yohan squeaked in excitement.

Gayatri smacked his arm playfully, "You never got this much excited even though you have been hanging out with me since childhood," she faked anger keeping her hands on the waist.

"Wait to see how much excitement I show when you become the Queen of Pathancot," Yohan nudged Gayatri teasingly.

"Oooooo!" others also teased.

Gayatri blushed.

"Hey you! Don't forget, you can only hang out with the Queen of Jaipur. So hang out as much as you want. Because the King will soon arrive to take his Queen away," Gayatri whispered in Yohan's ears and winked.

Scratching the back of his neck in embarrassment, Yohan turned at the direction of Tia and gets mesmerized seeing her laugh with the others.
