All this is so new to them but what amused them more than anything is looking at the king and queen. He never asked for anything, she observed the way he ate, understood what he needed, and served him with that. The silent love and understanding between them is so good to see and especially of the man like The Beast being a normal husband is very surprising. It's an obvious thing but it's human tendency to appreciate the similarities with us in the far away world from us.
After lunch, they sat in the hall, Abhyansh left to his study after sitting there for 5 minutes which is a huge thing in itself, Isha is more than satisfied with the way he behaved with her friends and decided to reward him for his good behavior. She mentally giggled at her words. She was brought back by Amruta's voice.
"Isha... Why didn't your brother join this lunch ? I haven't seen him in the past 2-3 weeks, is everything okay?", Amruta asked as Ranveer used to visit Ranawat palace at least twice a week and have food there as he missed his sister and her handmade food a lot.
"Not sure ma, the last time I called him, he said he was very busy, so I thought not to disturb him", she said with a small smile though inside she was burning with the amount of lies he told her.
Amruta frowned at it, Isha could never stay without talking to her brother but this is very new.
"Ma, Avyan go and take some rest, while I'll take them to the front palace", Isha said, they nodded and left from there. Reetu squealed in excitement after they left.
"I can't believe I am in a palace, that too Ranawat palace... God... This is a dream come true... Thank you Ishuuuu", Reetu squealed followed by Aashna and a few others.
"Okay let's go", Isha said with a smile leading them to the front palace. Since the baby is sleeping, they left her there asking a female servant to take care of the baby.
They enjoyed the tour but couldn't cover the whole palace even after hours, so they thought of retiring back to the main palace. Isha clicked her friends pictures, and then asked a servant to click their picture with her as they requested.
After seeing the Royal Palace, Ragini again started doubting if what she and Ranveer are doing is right or not. She clearly didn't belong anywhere near them, but Ranveer convinced her. She wondered how is it even possible for the Rajput siblings to stay so down to earth after coming from such a famous and wealthy background. Isha was clicking pictures for all of them as if it's a common thing for her to do. On seeing how the servants are looking at them when Isha was clicking their pictures, Ragini tried to stop Isha but she didn't budge.
They all settled in the hall of the main palace. The servants brought snacks, and coffee/tea or she asked for any shake if they wanted to have, some ordered milkshakes and the servants returned with their customized drinks.
The baby started crying and Isha instantly got up to take care of the baby, putting her plate down, asking her friend i.e the baby's mother to have the snacks.
Avyan who came there helped Isha in handling the baby. After the snacks, her mother took the baby and then Isha and Avyan had theirs.
"Take coffee and snacks to Rajmata's chamber, tea for Sasur sa and juice for ma, I air-fried some pakora for ma separately, serve her only those", Isha instructed, the maid bowed and walked away.
"I'll be back in 5", she said to her friends, she had to serve snacks and coffee to her husband.
"Bhabhi ma... Look at your feet, they are swollen with all the running you did today", Avyan said concerned for her.
"I am alright Avyan", she gave him a smile and turned to Ragini and Reetu. "Make them comfortable, let Avyan know if anyone needs anything, I'll just be back", Isha said to her best friends and left.
After some time, Ragini pinged her, that they were leaving, So both the king and queen came down. They gave a gift pack to everyone that was given to the guests. For the women, it's a saree, flowers, all the basic things representing women along with a piece of jewelry, while for men, it's clothes, gold coin, perfume, and other things while the baby received a 100% scholarship for her education, whatever she wanted to become, The Ranawat education trust would bear the responsibility of the finances and if it's in any other city or country, they also provide with all the necessities there.
The mother couldn't stop her tears and then Isha jokingly told her...
"It's not a gift from us, your daughter earned it with her courage, she looked directly into Rana sa's eyes and even tried to pluck them out", Isha whispered in her friend's ears chuckling thatmade her smile too, though she was shocked at first knowing the king let her do it.
They bid bye and left to their respective homes. After that, Abhyansh took Isha to their chamber and massaged her swollen feet.
"I told you not to exhaust yourself, didn't I ?", he asked sternly
"I should look after the arrangements when we are expecting guests Rana sa, this is a once in a once-in-a-while requirement", she said in her defense
"You did the arrangements, not looked after, if you actually did supervise, your feet wouldn't have been like this", he said pressing her feet and sole and she huffed in annoyance.
"Don't you have any other work or maybe go out ?", Isha asked and he shook his head making her sigh...
"Today my only job is to teach you what is actually called supervising", he said
"Matlab aaj pura din aap humare sir pe naachenge (that means you will dance on my head the whole day)", she said annoyed and he glared at her sternly.
"You were at fault and instead of apologizing and trying not to repeat it, you are annoyed ? Why ?? I should be the one annoyed because of your immature acts", he scolded her and she looked down, she could argue with him in normal times but she wouldn't dare to do it when he was angry or worried for her, and now he is both.
He sighed seeing her head down.
"Are you crying ?", he asked, and she shook her head still looking down. "Then show me your face", he said and she again shook her head.
