The Stables

The hideout..

Awww so this is the stable-den!😳 But, who's the third chap, Periyamma... is it Chota Faizan watching them as they spare a thought for him?😳

Akbar had returned only this morning.

'You could've rested... left in the morning... the informer is not going to leave till he meets you...'

'And risk our enemies getting to him first?' exhaled Akbar 'Like what happened to Chota Faizan?'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'Begum Sahiba!'

The skin on his left jaw twitched from a wary confusion.

Parts of the fresh line of kohl outlining her lower lashes, had smudged. And her lips were redder than they would be, if they'd been adorned by red tint. The Sahiba had evidently wept. But, why? And why had she overridden his guard's orders second night in a row - only to be caught stealing a peak of his classified scroll this time around?

'Sahiba...' His confusion slowly morphed into a rising displeasure 'what are you doing?'

Ufff

'Khan Sahib...' Her glances hazed over, brimming with affection. After what felt like an eternity, she'd gotten to behold him. It was the same Khan Sahib she'd known for months. But beholding him in a new light now meant his persona was stronger, nobler and wiser to her gazes than before. And yet as she peeled off those flawless layers of his persona, to read his heart as only a wife could, she saw how vulnerable, withdrawn and hurting her saviour still was. The man had pulled her out of the jaws of that black cave, away from its evil shadows, keeping her in warmth and light - while he was still trapped within its cold walls, languishing in its darkness all alone. He had guarded her from the gates of hell every step of the way, while his own body had been bled, his memories bartered, and his soul betrayed by the many demons in his fate.

The expression in the painting perfectly suits this para, doesn't it?❤️

~~~~~~~~~~

Had she only stopped by his room last night, to lay on his pillow? Or did she have other, not-so-romantic reasons too? Watching his chamber, through the binoculars - was that plain mischief or were there other underlying intentions? After all, her offhand remark about the 'Ustaad' serving an 'undeserving master' showed she didn't trust him fully yet. Could that be why she was still tempted to snoop on his work each chance she got? 'Damn!'

Then again, he couldn't blame her for not trusting him wholly, could he? It was HER right to decide whether the joy that his sacrifices brought, would erase the pain that his betrayal had caused.

Nevertheless, putting aside those dilemmas, he decided to focus on the matter at hand the scroll. 'Begum Sahiba...'

Awww❤️ 🤗

'Yes, Khan Sahib?'

Heera watched his haunting stare - haunting her in a way that made her insides shudder rather than flutter 'I... I don't understand... w... what's happened...' but before she could complete the question, she got her answer when he went on to move the scroll away from her hand.

His haunting stare is what the painting depicts, doesn't it...☺️ it's sizzling the balance between them at this point!

till it ends in...

Their parley unbroken, he let the flames grow. Till they steadily reached the tip of his fingers. And half-an-instant before it got too hot to bear, he dropped the smouldering ash into a pot of water under the desk.

With half-a-nod and an adab, Akbar then withdrew - his first step backwards passive, after which he made a swift turnaround and paced away from her presence.

Ufff the scroll now burnt... but it leads to the phoenix of a new relationship rising from the ashes

Ustaad is awake, able to sit, and now probably even able to walk around and practice a bit for the upcoming duel!! Thanks to Heera and her magic potion that is healing Ustaad's wounds!!!

Wait and watch... that's all I can say for now🤗
