Udaipur ~ A Path to our Destiny

Part 17 ~ Mr Rathore said What ?

Suhani's pov

As we drove back to the palace , the whole ride went silent as none of us tried to talk more to each other. The atmosphere inside the car became tense, and I could feel the weight of the unspoken words hanging in the air. The events of the day had left me emotionally drained, and it seemed like any words spoken now would only add to the heaviness between us

I leaned back in my seat, gazing out of the window . I couldn't help but replay the events of the day in my head. The tension between us had been building for a week and today it finally reached its breaking point. What had started as a simple disagreement soon escalated into a full-blown argument. Harsh words were exchanged, feelings were hurt, and the rift between us widened. I Knew that I was being a little Insensitive but I didn't have any other option

As we reached the palace, the lingering silence between us remained. None of us dared to break the quietude with conversation. I shifted uncomfortably in my seat, my mind racing with thoughts about what had just transpired. It seemed as though a heavy weight had settled upon us suffocating any notion of casual conversation.

The car came to a stop , The gatekeepers opening the car door for us . We stepped out and walked towards the palace, our footsteps echoing in the empty courtyard. The silence continued to hang heavy around us , but neither of us dared to speak out loud

As we reached the Main hall , I decided to speak up

" Mr Rathore, I hope you won't tell
anyone " I whispered anxiously , In an attempt to break the tension . I finally spoke up , he halted his steps as his gaze fixed upon me. The air grew thick with anticipation as we locked eyes, my plea hanging in the air between us. After a moment of contemplation, he nodded his head slightly

" Pratap ji , Dr Suhani ka luggage unke Room mein le jaaiye aur kisi ko is baare mein pata nahi chalna chahiye " ( Pratap ji , take Dr Suhani's luggage in her room and no body should know about it ) Mr Rathore said as he instructed Mr pratap , a very faithful guard of the palace , he nodded , lifted my luggage and stormed towards my Chamber

" Hmm, by the way , change your clothes or you might get sick " he advised , his voice barely audible . I nodded in acknowledgment . I took my leave and entered my chamber

" Hey Shivji , Mujhe Shakti dijiye " ( hey Shivji , give me strength ) I murmured under my breath and collapsed on the bed , I opened my eyes after a second as the flashbacks of today's event filled my head like a whirlwind , leaving me feeling disoriented and rattled . The sights and sounds collided in my mind overwhelming my senses , As I regained focus . My body felt heavy weighed down by the mixture of emotions that swirled inside me. Fear, confusion and a lingering sense of disbelief all mingled together, threatening to overwhelm me completely

Suddenly , I heard a glass breaking sound making me stand up in complete attentiveness , my heart started pounding as I watched the broke crockery shattered on the floor , as I looked up with my hands holding my chest in shock

" Ahana !!!! " I shouted as I started walking towards her , and there she was smiling cheekily with her pillow in her right hand

" Oops I think I should've knocked first before bursting in here like that " She said as she entered my room with her small steps

" Watch out or you might hurt yourself Ahana " I warned her as she jumped over the shattered pieces of the glass

" Oh God , This Girl " I mumbled as she stopped in front of me
