Hopeless Battle

Chapter 18

Lavanya tried to open her eyes and the sunlight was giving her trouble. She won at last and opened her eyes but was also accompanied by a head throbbing headache . She looked around her surroundings and she understood it was Harsh' room . She then remembered the day before' incidents .
" o god " she muttered under her breathe
She looked around her and saw a mirror infront . Her face had the marks of her tears , her lips were red and had some cuts here and there . She kept her messy looking hair to a side and saw love bites , bruises and teeth marks all over her neck . She then realized that her skirt tie was not tied and her blouse knots were opened.

"No no" she whispered to herself
She could still not believe he could do a such a crime , she could not look at herself anymore . She felt tears coming from her eyes but her mental pain was more , She couldn't believe he stole her biggest treasure, her virginity. She felt a rush if different emotions. She tied all the knots and started walking towards her room
" can you make things ready for bathing " asked Lavanya
"Yes princess Lavanya " said Kabya
" thank you " said Lavanya
Kabya bowed and left . Lavanya broke down again and when she heard Kabya' s foot steps she wiped her tears .
" it's ready my princess " said Ashie

She entered the bath and she felt the water soothe her . She felt a bit better but the thoughts of the heinous thing didn't leave her mind . She was in the verge of crying again , the maids helped take bath.
" could you leave me for a little while" said Lavanya
" yes princess" said Kabya
The maids bowed and left . Lavanya in was alone there sobbing . She tried to let out all her pain but she still had a lot of pain left . She couldn't stop thinking about the incidents . She felt lonelier than ever . After what she did she knew her only friendly figure , Piara won't even visit her.
" Kabya Ashie" called out Lavanya
" yes princess " said Ashie

Lavanya got out of the bath. She dressed into comfortable clothes with the help of the maids. The maids came with some food and she ate them fast .
" please leave me alone for a while " said Lavanya
"Ok princess " says Kabya
They both leave, Lavanya sits in the bed and cries her eyes eyes out . The maids could hear her cries . The maids decide to say to Queen Piara.
"Piara you are the one who is giving her freedom and she thinks she can do anything " said Harsh
" I didn't think she would do anything like this " said Piara helplessly
" you are with her most of the time " said Harsh still burning in anger
"What could I do , tie her to a pillar " Piara said and regretted the second she said it
" if the jeweler didn't feel the doubt she wouldn't have been here " said Harsh
"Harsh , I'm and was helpless" said Piara
"Any way thanks for giving an idea , the girl could not stay here let us see how she reacts when she can't even get out of her room" said Harsh
"Harsh don't do that" said Piara
"Too late" said Harsh
Harsh left and Piara went to her chamber . She was walking here and there trying to think of an idea, she regrets her words more than ever . She hears a knock .
" come in " Said Piara
"Queen ,the princess have been crying for a while" said Ashie
" let her get a medicine of what she caused, it's my fault itself " said Piara
" but Queen she has been crying uncontrollably, she made us leave several times to hide her cries " said Kabya
"Let me look then " said Piara
Piara decided to meet her , she had a guilt that it was her fault . She didn't want to meet because there is her mistake and Lavanya didn't hear what she said . Piara stood outside Lavanya's room and heard her sobbing. She went inside and saw Lavanya . She was shocked by seeing what a mess Lavanya was.
"Lavanya what a mess have you made to yourself " asked Piara
"Piara" said Lavanya surprised
"Go and wash your face" said Piara
Lavanya washed her face and came near Piara. Piara made Lavanya sit and started combing her hair . Lavanya felt she hasn't lost much for a second . But when the old thoughts came back she was in the verge of tears . Piara noticed it .
"Both of you leave " said Piara
"Yes my queen " said Kabya and they both left.
"Stop crying and tell me what happened " said Piara
"Sorry " said Lavanya
" for what" asked Piara, Lavanya didn't do much to Piara by her works , some scold isn't anything to her
" I don't want you to hate me , you are the only reason I'm surviving here" said Lavanya
" I don't , now stop crying and tell me what happened " said Piara.

Piara and Lavanya sat in the bed to talk . Piara wiped the tears in Lavanya's face and hugged her tight. Piara knew not to handle the situation in anger but instead comfort , some scolding is not going to hurt Piara.
" what happened tell me" said Piara
" yesterday do you have any idea what happened " asked Lavanya because she was embarrassed to explain
" no , to tell the truth. Yesterday I followed you guys till the room but I knew I was helpless, I know that he wouldn't have even heard my words when he turned deaf to my voice in anger" said Piara
" it's not your fault , you know that I don't like being around him" said Lavanya
"Weirdly yes" said Piara
" yesterday, I started to stay away from me  and he pulled me towards him" said Lavanya
" don't tell me if you can't " said Piara
" I have to , then he kissed me in my lips and my neck" said Lavanya and tears started to come
" calm down and don't tell " said Piara
" I will, I lost my virginity " said Lavanya
" no , never " said Piara
" it's the truth" said Lavanya
" I promise on my life he won't do that" said Piara and she drank Some water
" tell me what happened " said Piara
" yesterday's incident and morning my dress ties were opened" said Lavanya
" did you faint yesterday " asked Piara
" yes , I didn't witness the incidents so" said Lavanya
" my naive princess " said Piara and started laughing.....
