✨A Tensed Breakfast ✨
**Chapter -3 A Tense Breakfast**
Siyat, Priyat, and Kriyat prepare the princess and take her downstairs to the dining hall for breakfast, where the entire family is already seated.
Seeing Siyat bring a girl into his lap, Shivya, Dhanushi, and Krishi are shocked. Dhanushi, concerned, asks, "Son, has your disease been cured?" (referring to the illness the brothers had before).
The brothers ignore them, and Siyat, still holding the girl in his lap, sits down at the table.
Surya, softening his voice, asks, "Son, who is this girl? If she's with you, does that mean your disease is cured?"
Priyat replies sharply, "No."
Shivansh, raising his voice, demands, "How did this girl end up with you? Who is she?"
Hearing the loud voice, the small girl gets scared and hides her face in Kriyat's chest. Seeing her frightened, the three brothers' eyes turn red with anger.
Siyat, with a furious expression, responds, "Mr. Shekhawat, mind your tone. The girl you're talking about is our princess."
Shivya, in a softer tone, scolds, "Son, is this how you talk to your father? Have some respect."
Siyat retorts coldly, "Mrs. Shekhawat, don't talk about respect."
Shivya raises her voice, "Shut up! Your dad is right. You can't just bring any random girl into the Shekhawat mansion. We have a standard!"
Meanwhile, Dhanush, who had been quietly observing, speaks up with anger. "You all are crazy! This is our home, not a shelter. You can't just bring any girl here."
Krishi, supporting Dhanush, adds, "Dhanush is right. We don't even know who this girl is. Who are her parents?"
Shivansh looks at the girl and asks coldly, "What are your parents' names? Who are they, to hand you over to my sons? It seems like they've been sending you to trap rich boys from a young age."
Before he can say more, Siyat's furious voice fills the room. "Mr. Shekhawat, don't you dare talk about the girl in that way. She is our princess."
Shivya, now in a raised voice, scolds, "This is how you talk to your father? Do you even have any respect left?"
Siyat snaps, "Mrs. Shekhawat, don't preach to me about respect."
Seeing all this, Dhanish glares at the girl with hate and jealousy, as though she wants to kill her with just a stare. Dhanish, who had always been the center of attention in the Shekhawat family, now felt angry seeing the princess with her brothers. She had always craved the same affection from her brothers but had been rejected, and now the attention was on this girl.
Dhanish, though just 7 years old, had grown up spoiled and arrogant, often bullying kids from lower classes in school. When the principal would complain about her behavior, Dhanush, being a trustee at the school, would scold the principal into silence.
Now, seeing the princess with her brothers, Dhanish thought, *For now, you're safe, but when my brothers aren't around, I'll teach you a lesson.* A sly smile formed on her face as she thought about her plan.

**The Decision**
On the other side, Siyat, feeling the tension, quietly says to himself, "Dadu, we think our staying here is causing trouble for everyone."
Surya, looking displeased, responds, "What are you talking about? Why would we have a problem with you staying here? It's the girl's presence that is bothering us."
Priyat adds, "If our princess' presence is causing trouble, then we won't stay here either."
Surya, signaling his sons with a glance to remain silent, sighs and looks at the three of them. He finally relents, "Alright, you can keep the girl here."
