30. INTENTIONS.

Siya ~

About a week went by without anything major happening around but tonight, I stumbled upon Vani and Amar talking right where they thought no one could listen to them but there I was, standing right behind the pillar to eavesdrop on their conversation.

" Arjun was never supposed to be King Amar. You were and just because we decided that we wanted to be together doesn't mean that we get deprived of our rights. You are the elder son of the family and you deserve this Kingdom and I deserve to be Queen and our son, the heir." She said with an extraordinary amount of venom in her voice that I flinched for a second.

Wait, what son?

Shit. The child. That unborn child Arjun had told me about.

But where was he? Why wasn't he here with them?

" Vani all we need is the inheritance money. Being the King is a position of huge responsibility and accountability. I would rather live with you and Yash peacefully than worry about this place which does not even want us in the first place." Was his response.

" Amar, think big. Imagine being the King and the power which comes with it. We can easily kick Arjun and his annoying wife out of here. What could be better?" The pure sound of evilness in her voice wanted me to throw up.

" No Vani. All this is not worth it. We are here for the money and nothing else. I want to give a good future to Yash and this is not the place for that. After we get the money, we will go abroad and settle peacefully. Yash will attend a good college and we will live away from this for the rest of our lives. All I need is my son and my wife by my side. That's it." Amar, despite having no character or backbone was now, at least on the right path unlike his witch wife.

" No Amar. I want you to be King and I want to be Queen. I want our son to be king someday and I will stop at nothing. You will help me in this if you love me even a little bit." She said, trying to manipulate him and all I wanted to do was go and slap this woman before dragging her out of my home.

" I have to tell this to someone who is not Arjun. He is already so busy with work and I cannot dump this on him too." I muttered to myself before slowly leaving and the only people who came in my mind for help were three.

I slowly sneaked into the bedroom where on one side, there was a huge pile of gifts from Papa, Rohit bhai and Karan bhai along with my mumma and bhabhis and on the other side was a sleeping Arjun on the bed.

I juggled my gaze between those two before walking to the pile of gifts.

'I guess it's time to forgive you all. After all, I do need your help." I muttered to myself, opening the box of chocolates and eating two before going to the bed and lying down next to Arjun.

Thankfully, my footsteps didn't wake him up and I covered myself with the duvet, muttering a small goodnight to him and closing my eyes but I knew that sleep was going to be miles away from me tonight.

The next morning when Arjun was about the wake up, I quickly closed my eyes, pretending to be asleep and I turned on the other side so that he doesn't see me up, covering myself till the face with the duvet.

I had to tell someone what I heard last night and that someone couldn't be him right now and I knew the minute he asks what happened, I will blabber everything out to him if i don't tell this to anyone as soon as possible.
