The Forgotten Bond

Chapter 6

The wedding was officially completed, Shrutkarma and Aadhya were Husband and wife.....

At night kriti was sitting in his room , it was not like that he was upset with the wedding , he was completely ok but he was worried about Aadhya, she still thought his family members love him, but in real they hurt him alot , he was afraid of the reactions he will be getting , he knew Arjun won't be happy at all , he knew he always messes up when it comes to the relationship of his and his parents...

Aadhya came to her father's room where she was getting ready the reason which was still unknown to her ...

Are maharani, why are you making your daughter ready? Her father spoke teasingly

What you mean Arya? Today is her....

Her what priye? She is a small girl not a grown up lady, it takes time to blossom a friendship in love, they both will be having that feeling in coming years.

Aadhya, go Putri you need to be with Kriti now, because you are going to a complete new place, so listen to him what he says ok?

Ok Pitashree, i will listen to him and she went out

Arya don't you think kriti is hiding something? Maharani asked sitting beside her husband

Yes priye I too think the same, he is such a intelligent boy, calm composite and he have a friendly nature ,still his eyes shows some pain, maybe something realated to his family

Arya, why didn't you asked him? That day his hand was literally burned and he was trying to eat food, when myself fed him by some force , he got tears in his eyes

Priye , he is hiding that pain, how can I just go and ask this? He will be more sad and moreover he is our son too we will give him whatever he needs, anyways Am happy my gudiya got a partner like him, now don't waste time in talking, let's sleep we have alot of work tomorrow

Both slept, but one listened all their conversation, no other than Aadhya
She was a bit sad listening that because her Arya was so good then why someone hurts him? She decided to his bestest friend....

Arya, can I come in? Aadhya asked kriti for permission

Kriti came out from his thoughts as he looked at her, Aadhya what are you doing here? Don't you want to sleep?

Mata said, i need too sleep with you, because now we are married that's why!

Ohh ok come then, I will sleep on that couch, you sleep on bed, ok?

Ummm, nope, You too sleep with me I don't feel awkward as you are thinking and I need someone to hug and sleep, pls Arya *Puppy eyes* sleep with me na ....

Aah umm ok kriti said bit perplexed and laid beside her as Aadhya hugged him like a teddy bear and slept.

Next morning, both set off for their journey to Indraprastha, Aacharya already had informed everyone that Shrutkarma was married and ofcourse no one was that happy , they just assumed that kriti won and by thinking this the king made his daughter married to him....

Aadhya and Shrutkarma were near to Indraprastha when they took a small break from their journey, horses were thirsty too...

Aadhya, listen , we will be reaching Indraprastha soon, pls if someone says wrong don't be sad

Arya, but why they will speak something wrong? They are your family members na...

Aah Aadhya, you don't need to seek these answers now , will tell you later ,just remember what I said now, ok?

Ok She said, as they again started their journey

They reached Indraprastha, not more than 5 minutes ago, as per ritual new bride is welcomed, that's why everyone were standing at the doorway, Panchali did Aarti of both and welcomed them

No one said a word and just blessed them but when they were going to their chamber, Subhadra spoke, married so early? Seems you are grown up too early? What was so special that you came with a wife huh?

Mata, there is nothing left like that , her father wanted us to get married nothing else, he said as he went to his chamber with Aadhya

Aadhya I am coming after changing my clothes, wait here, ok?

She nodded but still she was thinking about what Subhadra spoke, why she wasn't happy, even after kriti was her son? She was puzzled by the behaviour of all

She changed her saree to a light one as she started roaming in his room, it was beautiful indeed and the paintings he made were beautiful too! She saw Mridang there as she sat near it

Arya, you play Mridang?

Yes, he is my best friend from childhood whenever I feel sad or lonely I play Mridang

Will you play it now? She asked

You want to listen? He asked smilingly no one really asked him to do so till now

Yes, she said , he started playing Mridang and ofcourse his music was so soothing that anyone would just stand and listen to it life long

Arya, you play it so brilliantly, I love this now! Can I sit here whenever you play it?

Yes ofcourse Aadhya he said smiling

But he was unknown of a thing coming up too him yes , no other than Arjun, he came in his room and saw Adhya and Shrutkarma sitting and laughing, what's going on prince?, His voice startled them

Pitashree, he spoke as both took his blessings, he blessed them because it was a ritual ofcourse!

So here you are enjoying? Huh, don't you wanna work?

Pitashree I have asked Jyesth bit he said to join after 2 days when new records will come that's why he replied

You only need a excuse, right? And now there is also you have wife now, right? Prati asked you too go and you came here? Didn't even thought to help abhi? Ooh let it be ....

No it's not like that pitashree

Oh let it be i don't wanna say anything , he said and left

Kriti got tears in his eyes, which were wiped by Aadhya, Arya don't be sad I know now your family don't care for you much, but I am there na? She said and hugged him

He hugged her back, Adhya never leave me pls he said emotionally

I will never leave, now see it's already night, let's sleep or else you will be late tomorrow

Hmm he nodded as both drifted to sleep
