Mainawati- you are right we understand but we had had our reasons,.
Hira- reasons , you kept me away from my real Identity , if had to sent me away, you would have at least told me the truth, I am not complaining about sending me in someonelse's house , they are the most loving people one can ask for but you would have told me atleast that you wrer my real parents.
Mainawati- Our royal Atrologer told us that we gave to send you away because you had life risk.
Hira- But did he told you to hide my identity. Bharmal tried to say something.
Hira- Maha raj plese give me the permission to leave , I can not take it anymore. Bharmal gave her the permission to leave the room and mainawati bokw down in tears . When Hira came out of Bharma's room Vishkah met her and told her that Panchan wants to meet her , Hira said something in her ears and Vishakha left after she heard that.
Hira was very upset she wanted to be alone she wanted to speak to her another family as well why they did not told her the truth? Everybody betrayed her .to her , The person she trusted and loved Sehensha has also lied . hira was very Angry she thought she will go the temple , she use to go everyday , but she got inturuptd by a Dasi of shivani , she told her that Shivani wants her to join in the music and dance ceremony . One week is left for her marriage so everyday in her mahal theses muci and dance functions are arranged , she insisted hira many times to tak part in theses , but she refused , but today she has told her dasi that if Hira does not come she will not talk to her in her whole life . Hira did not wanted to heart her lttle sister , so she decided to join the function .
On the other side Jalal was missing Hira very badly . he wanted to see her , but he did not knew where she is , he thought he will ask a Dasi about her where abouts , but then as a king this kind of behaviour is not expected from him. He was thinking of What he should do when lalita( another dasi of Hira ) came to him.
Lalita- Pranam Sehensha she did a pranam to Jalal. Jalal did not pay attention to her as he was thinking about Hira. Lalita cleared her throat and said- forgive me sehensha , but I think that Sehensha is thinking about his Queen Hira Bai. Jalal turned around Lalita knew she was in the right path so she couninued. If Sehensha wants I can mae his wish come true.
Jalal- if you can do that with out informing anyone , I will give you anything you want.
Lalaita- If Sehensha can trust this humble Dasi please come with me . lalita took Jalal through secret roots , Jalal reached o a Baloney , which was built in a way that Jalal can see Hira from here but Hira can not see him, It had a Jharokha . Jala was very happy he was about to give a ring to Lalita .Lalita said-
Lalita- Forgive me sehesha I don't need anything now, I am glad that an ordinary person like me can bring smile on your face. But I will ask for something when the actual time will come . lalita left Jalal alone so that he can admire Hira's beauty .
By now Hira was on the stageHerself , Hira was crying few hours before and now she have to dance because her sister wants her to dance , Jalal was amazed by two things
1 He did not knew Hira was such a great Dancer ,and she looks so beautiful when she dances
2 Hira have so much control on her emotions, he felt proud that Hira is part of his life. She is a very strong women . Jalal decided that he will explain everything to Hira tonight.
At night jalal as waiting for Hira, Hira came in her room , she was very tired , she was so tired that she orgot that she has to share the room with Jalal , when she saw Jala in her room, she remembered that Jalal is also here, she went to Jalal and touched his feet , jalap u his hand on her head
Jalal- Hira Begum you look very tired I think you had a eventful day . Hira did not say anything she went to the mirrior and she was removing her Jewelleries oJalal cleared his throat and went to her-
Hira begum I must say dancing makes a person really tired ,but it is really tough . Hira looked at Jalal she was clueless how Jala knew that she was dancing .
Hira- Sehensha how do you know that I was dancing . Jalal said-
Jalal- I runahuge administration Hira Begum I know everything. Jalal thought Hira will ask how he came to know about it, but Hira did not say anything, and she went to the bed and took her pillow and she was making her bed on the floor.
Jalal- Hira begum I know you are angry with me , you have evry right to be angry with me , but what you have done is also not right, you shold have aske for my permission before you left Agra.
Hira- She sat on the mat ,I am sorry if I broke your rules Sehensha , but I was not in a state of mind to inform anyone, I just wanted to get out of Agra.
Jalal- Hira Begum I understand what you have gone through, In your place any other person would have committed Jala could not say.
Hira- Looked at jalal and Said- suicide . I also wanted to do that, but before that I wanted to know why it was done to me .
Jalal Hira begum forget everything and let's go back to Agra I promise I will never hide anything from you .
Hira- I don't wish to go back, rather I think I will become a Nun. Jalal got shocked when she said this
Jalal- Hira Begum do you even know what you are saying? Hira lied on the mat
Hira- I know Sehensha what I am saying .
Jalal- If I tell you the real reason will you reconsider your decision ? Hira turned to Jalal
Hira- I promise If you can tell me the real reason I will rethink about my decision .
Hira turned around and closed her ees, jalal went to his own bed he was thinking how he can handel this matter in a calm and composed way , Jalal was really tired so he flln asleep, In midnight Jalal woke up from his sleep . It took him a while to adjust his eyes in this new room . After he adjusted himself he heard the sound of Hira's Payel jala followed her . He was worried about Hira's safety, though she was in her own kingdom , but still she is a women, and sh did not carry a wappen with her, after flowing her for few munites jalal saw that Vishakha accompanied her. This thing got into Jalal's nerves he followed hem both like a shadow and he reached a place where Hira was going to meet Panchanan.
Jalal could not se Panchana but he can see that Hira was talking to someone. Panchanan's face was covered with a cloth. Jalal thought that someone may be has came to hira to ask for charity , as she has done theses kind of charity before Jalal did not say anything, but he thought he will ask vishakha tomorrow about this. Jalal went back to his room.
Hira was talking to Panchana . Vishakha was keeping an eye so that no one can come here-
Panchanan- I herad that sehensha E- hind has came to Amber.
Hira- yes he is here to attend primcess Shivani's wedding.
