"Someone sent you this...", Vikram said placing the box on the table across the sofa and walking to the kitchen only to get back with a bunch of beer cans from the refrigerator...

"Hm... have this, you'll cool down", Vikram threw a can towards Ranveer who opened it in a blink and gulped the whole contents... "woah... looks like your ego is bruised badly... anyways let's see what's in this", Vikram said pulling the package towards him...

Ranveer kept drinking ignoring Vikram, but his sudden screech attracted his attention...

"What is it??", Ranveer asked...

"See it yourself", Vikram said pushing the package to Ranveer...

"What the actual f**k", Ranveer said staring at the huge cartoon toy in it with a note attached to it...

"I'll satisfy all your needs" the note read

"What does it mean??", Vikram asked looking at Ranveer who seemed in deep thoughts himself...

@Ranawat palace

Days passed and it's already a week and Reetu is fully recovered now, she kept pestering Isha every day to make her meet the king and the queen and Isha finally decided to do it that evening...

"Ishu, it's already 6, when will we go to meet the king and queen?? I heard they won't allow people or vehicles to the palace and no cabs would go inside, what will we do??", Reetu asked

"Just wait for some more time, and have some patience Reetu....", Isha said looking at the two designers who are still working... Isha took a deep breath when she saw them packing and leaving the office...

"Isha... only we two are left in the whole office, you never work after 5, why are you doing this today??", Reetu whined...

"Reetu, now we are leaving, but before that, I want to tell you something...", Isha said nervously and Reetu nodded, she didn't notice her friend's anxiety in her excitement... "you cannot disclose this to anyone, not even to Ragini and please don't change, I'm your friend and will always be the same", Isha added and Reetu laughed...

"Ishu... you are saying as if you are the queen, just because you and your husband are a close acquaintance to the king and queen, why would I change my behaviour towards you, don'tworry, you are not gonna get any special treatment, now let's leave", Reetu said pulling Isha outside, Isha sighed deeply...

"Let's call a cab", Reetu said after reaching outside but Isha stopped her...

"The king will be here soon", Isha said shocking Reetu...

"What?? Are you crazy?? You called the king here to meet me?? Why would you do that?? How did his highness agree to such a stupid wish??", Reetu went paranoid

"Reetu, calm down, he had some work here, so he is coming, not just for you", Isha lied

"What work??", Reetu asked, Isha sighed at the number of questions her friend asks...

"I don't know", Isha said, she wanted to get this over with as soon as possible, she is about to call Abhyansh when she spotted her husband's convoy...

"There it is... oh no, Ishu, I'm suddenly so nervous yet very excited... I'm meeting the king and queen, oh my god...", Reetu squealed...

Abhyansh's men got out first and then opened the door for Abhyansh, who got down wearing his customized 3-piece looking like the king he is... Reetu is about to run to him bowing her head but Isha held her hand...

"He'll come here...", Isha said as she didn't want to introduce her husband to her friend in front of all his men... also she is afraid of her friend's reaction...

"What?? Are you crazy Ishu?? By the way, where is the queen??", Reetu asked and Isha sighed... she looked at her husband who is walking towards them and signed him to make it fast... Reetu's eyes widened at how Isha is signing Abhyansh, then Reetu saw a man following the king closely, then she thought that man to be Isha's husband and she is signing towards him...

"Bhairav aap please... (Bhairav, you please)", Isha said showing her hand to the man behind Abhyansh, who stopped after hearing his 'Rani Sa’s first order to him...

"Ji Rani sa", Bhairav said bowing his head... Reetu's eyes widened upon hearing those three words...

"What! how! and Ishu... you....", Reetu fumbled...

Abhyansh looked at his wife’s tired eyes and frowned...

"Isha...are you okay??", Abhyansh asked cupping Isha's pale face...
