A queen has a history too!!

Reena saw Mallamma and Fathima Amma with other female helpers sitting beside the dining on the ground with some bags of beans.

Turning to the left she saw Rocky busy in his work on some files may be he is working on the town plan and Maya, Kasim chacha, vanaram sitting opposite to him and his men standing around him in maroon. It's Sunday evening and the devil is still busy, neither he takes some rest nor he lets others to take rest.

"What are all these mallamma?" She went to the women.

"They are beans that are to be stringed." She replied opening a bag pouring them into some big plates.

"They are so many."

"Because they are for the meals for workers tomorrow. We thought to string them here as it is easy when done altogether."

"Let me help you." Reena went near them.

"No madam. It's okay." Mallamma spoke.

"I want to help you." Reena is about to sit beside them.

"No, madam. You sit on the chair." One from the group of ladies over there said.

"Why so?" Reena sat on the chair next to them.

"We heard that you are the only daughter of a great business man and was raised up like a princess. You won't be habituated to such things, right?" Another lady spoke.

Reena suddenly has her smile dropping. They don't know, that isn't true for everyone.

Suddenly her eyes got travelled to the sound and she saw shanthi's mother coming with Shanti in her hands.

"Shanthi is here!" Reena uttered with bright smile on her face.

Rocky who can hear the conversation turned his head to see Reena's radiant smile that only Shanti can bring.

His shona is so delighted by the kids.

He thinks that she will want to have them quickly after their marriage. So lot of hardwork to be done in upcoming days, he internally chuckled at his thoughts.

"Oh! She's asleep." Reena is disappointed she thought of playing with this little girl till night.

It is so much fun according to her.

"Nothing madam. She will wake up after a half an hour or so." Shanti's mother smiled at reena and sat near her with Shanti sleeping peacefully on her lap.

Everyone started stringing the beans from their respective plates.

"Your daughter is looking so pretty." Fathima Amma complimented.

"Yes. Her features changed a bit from last time." Reena said admiring those soft chubby cheeks and stringing those beans.

"She is our lucky charm." Ladies starting talking.

"A girl always brings luck."

"It would be more great if it was a son you know because you only have one child."

A woman talked to Laxmi, shanthi's mother.

"I always wanted a sweet little girl for myself. " Laxmi replied.

"That's great." Reena had to appreciate this progressive thought of the lady.

"But now I feel like she is not lucky to have me." Laxmi lowered her gaze to her daughter in her lap.

"Why?" Mallamma asked.

"Look at her, she look like a princess. But I can't make her the princess she deserves to be." Laxmi turned to Reena.

"I want her to lead a life like princesses such as you do, a life of milk and honey."

Reena smiled sadly at the lady who misunderstood blood and guns as milk and honey and it seemed like everybody around her did the same.

"Coming from a small Village near the forests I always wondered how lucky will a royal life feel to lead.

After coming here I'm seeing it through you. I also feel you deserve to be treated this good with your warm heart." She said with alot of adoration towards Reena.

"But it's not always that great to feel."

Reena spoke with sad smile.

"Even a queen has history like the king does.

But the difference is King has it written with the blood and

the queen has it did with tears and blood of her own."

Maya stopped her sketches and looked at Reena.

Rocky stopped reading the file yet his eyes were fixed on it.

"Living a life of princess in between the guns and ruthless men was never a life of riley."

Reena spoke with tears forming in her eyes and still stringing the beans from her plate.

The women around her looked at eachother's faces becoming alert by the newpiece of information given by their empress.

"Everyone only know that I was the only daughter of great business man but they failed to know that everything in my life was a mere business.

It was fixed that I will be married to my father's business partners son for his profits when I was just a ten year old.

And at the age of sixteen I was told that my husband is him and I have to accept it."

Kasim chacha and vanaram too started listening to her.

Their was a pindrop silence in the whole hall way and Reena had everyone's attention on her.

"The groom selected by my father was no different from the men I saw since my childhood.

He was dominating towards me since the age I actually don't know it's meaning.

There were days I used to quit college just because I don't want to be near him.

I used to have pang in my heart at the thought that I have to visit his home at the time of my father's business parties." Maya is now having tears forming in her eyes. She know what she felt back then. She saw it.

"I tried.

I tried to say that I'm not okay with his actions.

But he like any other man I have seen or heard refused to even understand it by just quoting that I'm so Dainty." Reena said transferring the stringed beans into a big bowl.

The women had their expressions changed to a sad one after knowing the sad truth of the fierce lady, they can feel what she was speaking about. Indeed many of the women present there can relate to her situation.

"I don't know whom to complain.

I, as a motherless kid had no one to listen to me.

I actually couldn't say the things I was facing to my father as I thought he will never understand.

Instead I went to my grandmother stating my terrible state only to hear her saying that it was his right to behave like that towards me. I was taught that men have the right to intrude into a women's life.

That's when I came to knew that I am a puppet in the hands of those mighty men in my life.

A puppet that can never have a life for her self, stuck in a place where she can't be empowered."

She her filled plate again and started stringing again.

The women around her had their speed low affected by the heavy words she was speaking.

"But I slowly realized that I can't handle it any further. I tried changing as much as I can. My father didn't oppose me may be he didn't get time to do it."

Their queen looking rude and angry is quite justified now.

"I was never looked down as something precious.

Rather I was just a lifeless object in the great Desai family.

An object that looks pleasant in the eyes to the guests of the business parties held by them.

I was looked like a weakness for my father. Always, they used to frighten him taking my name and speaking some harm." She lowered her head and tears which she was holding came running till her cheeks.

"Even your former king Garuda, I once called him when my father was caught by police that it is his responsibility to get him out as promised by suryavardhan.

And he said that " Reena paused all of a sudden. A soft sob left her mouth.

"That I have to visit his guest house if I want my father to get home soon."

Reena closed her eyes as the tears kept rolling down.

Even Rocky closed his eyes and fisted his hand in rage but that eyes didn't dare to leave the file which he stopped reading long ago, to see her.

Kasim chacha and vanaram lowered their head at what this girl has to go through at such a young age.

Maya, she already have lots of tears falling constantly from her eyes.

"The place we live may be luxurious but It can't be felt that when we are not respected.

I couldn't stop my marriage with that creep.

There was only one wish from my side that I shouldn't be able to give him children. Because I don't want another life suffer like I did, that too brought through me to this hell.

But they had a contract for this too that I have to give him two children in first two years of the marriage and further more if they want.

I asked what about me?

And they laughed." Reena laughed a little at her fate.

Every women present there was having tears.

"Then.." Reena has a genuine subtle smile on her lips as she continued.

"Then I had this drunken man walking towards me in middle of the Road party and announcing his LOVE for me in a brand new style."

All of them present over there got who is that man. They all seemed so much interested in knowing their favourite couple's love story. Their emperor's this new form can only be explained by his queen. No body actually wants to miss it today.

"Love in my life was a far left topic as I understood that I'm not gonna get it. But this guy dared to cross the barricades with his guts and made me cross my own lines I had myself surrounded in. " Rocky had a proud smile.

"At first, I thought he was just some Road side Romeo trying to impress me. But he seemed so different than that.

He made me think about him and smile even in the mess I was dealing with.

And I thought to know what he is. By challenging him that I will be his if he touches me before all the goons of us and the groom my father selected for me.

He created the chance but stopped, Making me fall hard for him.

I saw him beyond the sky for his morals.

Finally, I thought that I will be out of these guns and rivals if I choose him to share my life."

Reena took another plate of beans to string.

"I imagined a cute family with him so far from my traumatic past.

But I got to know that he was not any man from other background rather He was the man appointed by my father to kill the king of KGF." The bean from Reena's hand missed and fell in front of Laxmi which she picked and handed over to Reena but her teary eyes were casted down.

"I thought that's OK.I thought I will lead a peaceful life with him after his return. And still wanted to meet him and have a thorough conversation. But he left me without even saying a proper good bye to a place like KGF.

Then my to-be husband saw that I was liking him and didn't want the marriage when he came to know that he entered my room in the midnight.

I was so happy that I finally got freedom from that creep.

But I didn't get it.

Kamal still came to my house in the name of business talks and poked my father saying he raised me wrong.

But my father just kept quite. I realized that may be I would have got this solution long back If I dared to discuss it with my father.

May be he would have understood me. " Reena saw Fathima Amma opening another bag and got hurt in the process.

"Fathima Amma, be careful." Reena instructed.

"Yes.yes." Fathima replied.

"After all these I had only one thing left to do.

Wait!!

Wait for him to comeback and I had my dream of a simple family with him ready.

I kept waiting for the morning star in my dark sky.

I kept waiting not knowing when it comes to the end, counting each and every second in the separation.

And one day..."

Reena closed her eyes remembering the agony.

"I heard that he is dead." Reena took time to talk again.

"My breathe stopped.

I was like asking my own self that it was just this early morning I dreamt of him teasing me like he always do but what has happened now.

I had nothing to do. It was that four days of my life, I just took oxygen staring into nothing.

Then I came to know that he is not dead and will complete his mission soon.

That fake news made a strong feeling in me that he is not safe wherever he is and that made my wait more dreadful.

That even today whenever I see him going far from me I have a sharp pain in my heart.

Now that I know he is always in the jaws of death my soul begs him to..

To take me along with him when the death arrives.

I can't live without him. "

Reena's voice was breaking due to her sobs.

Kasim chacha and vanaram turned their heads to see Reena. The men around Rocky got their grip around the guns loosen.

Rocky had tears forming in his eyes.

"That nine months he spent here as a worker, I felt like a mother with constant labour pains waiting for the apple of her eye."

Rocky never thought his shona would wait this hard for him.

"After so much of wait he completed his mission." Reena wiped off her tears.

"And I had to wait for him to come to me.

That never happened.

I thought he will come to me as soon as his work gets complete.

He didn't.

People around mocked me that he was just doing some timepass with me and I was the only one to take it serious."

Rocky closed the file and sat straight with head turning towards her but gaze still at the floor.

"That wasn't correct.

After some three long days we did meet.

But the difference was that he didn't come to meet me instead he sent HIS GUARDS to bring me to his place."

She looked at Rocky from the corner of her eyes.

"After coming here I got to know that the shooter I fell in love with, has become a king now. I didn't had a good opinion on these kings and rulers because I was hacked off knowing their true shades.

A simple and sweet family I imagined will never come true. And I was called the same thing I'm tired of hearing all my life by him too."

Entertainment!!

Rocky got some flashes from that day.

" I thought atleast he noticed me as a human as everybody around me failed to do that.

No.

Even he too saw me like a lifeless object.

I thought that I will be finally living with him but my world collapsed when I came to know that He is similar to all those who killed my soul for being a women.

He just tried to made me taste life before killing me unlike everyother man.

Or may be the throne made him this.

I didn't know.

Today I know HE IS DIFFERENT.

I know I'm not any entertainment but the only family he have." Reena's eyes travelled to him and cameback to her plate.

"But still from all the past incidents I don't want anyone to come into my life.

Especially not a man.

My whole life I just got nothing but hurt from men.

That hurt got so deep that now a man comes like a knight in shining armour and makes me his queen with a lot of respect towards me.

But I'm still scared to proceed a further step with him.

Not like I don't trust him.

I do.

Now I feel completely free from all the quandary and I don't want it back in my life at any cost.

We can't know how bad a man can turn up after having the rights as a husband." Reena touched her mother's chain.

"May be you all also wanted to say me that

Give a name to this relationship.

But I'm afraid of it.

I'm afraid of giving a man some authority in my life.

Because I know how much worse they can make it.

I believe that being in a nameless relationship is better than being in disrespectful one." Reena poured all the stringed beannein a bag near mallamma.

"It's not like I'm going to lead the same life.

I will confess him when I feel like.

When I'm not scared of starting a new life living all my past behind.

I will confess him ." She smiled.

The women around too passed a weak smile to her. They all didn't know the truth behind this aggressive empress of them. They all just saw her life from a far long distance and judged it as EASYGOING.

Where as the truth is now out that the life of a queen is the most terrible thing.

Laxmi now know that no matter which house a girl is born if she is wanted to be a princess she should be TREATED like a princess.

Kasim chacha now know that he shouldn't force his bahu to confess.

Just then Shanti started crying in her mother's lap.

"She's awake!!" Reena said wiping off her tears and pasting a smile on her lips.

Laxmi made her silent.

Reena then went to her and took Shanti into her arms.

"I'm taking her to my room. Don't worry. I will bring her to you if she is hungry. " Reena passed a bright smile to Laxmi who is still busy in wiping tears.

"Now!!

Shall we go my little angel?"

She asked Shanti with ear to ear wide smile.

Shanti replied it with her soft giggles seeing Reena. This made Reena's heart flutter. She kissed those cute chubby cheeks and left the place.

Reena was smiling like nothing actually happened.

All of them present were awestruck at how this lady can still keep smiling after all the mess she had to face.

They till now thought that she is most fierce lady they have ever seen. Now, they understood she is most strong human they ever known.

Rocky made his mind that,

This glass doll he had got should be handled with utmost care.

He will do that...
