"Everyone, Please claps for our Ruhi, who has topped in the graduation with 99% marks, and got a scholarship for her further studies," said the principal.

Everyone Claps for her and they really admire her great hard work...

"I'm so proud of you, Ruhi, you brightened the name of our college once again," he said while giving her certificates and Trophy.

"Thank you, Sir," said Ruhi.

"One more thing, I want to tell you all students, Ruhi has won an art competition too in our college, in which she had made a portrait of the Former Rajasthani queen (means Bade Raja's mother) --Indian traditional canvas oil Painting. So Raja Saheb himself has come to give this certificate and trophy to Ruhi because he liked his mother's portrait very much. so please welcome Bade Raja saheb with big applause."

Everyone claps for Bade Raja saheb when he comes on the stage.

"Ruhi, we are very proud of you, you are such a brilliant student because you are an expert in studies as well as art as you have made a very beautiful portrait of my mother."

"Ruhi leans down to touch his feet to take blessing from Raja saheb and says, thank you so much, Sir."

"Always be happy dear," he gives her certificates and trophy," but I want to keep this painting, so ask dear, what you want after all you have made such a beautiful portrait." Raja saheb said while caressing her head.

"I don't want anything, sir," said Ruhi.

"It's ok, dear, but whenever you want anything, pls come to me in my palace without any hesitation...Ok?"

"Hmm," she nodded her head in yes.

....

"Where is Kavya? Why didn't she come today to college?" thought Ruhi.

"Hello Ruhi," said an unknown man.

she looks towards that voice, and said, "Hello Kartik..."

"Congratulations Ruhi, after all, you topped our college and got scholarships for your further studies, that's too in Delhi...Great..."

"Thank You Kaartik, by the way, Congratulations, after all, you also got 2nd position in our college," said Ruhi as smiling.

"Thank you very much," he said while shaking his hand with her, but Ruhi didn't like his sudden move, but she didn't mind and didn't say anything seeing him so happy.

"By the way, where is your partner, Kavya?... Huh?" He asked still shaking his hand with her.

'She is not feeling well today so she hasn't been able to come," she said while taking her hand back," Ok, now I'll take my leave, Karthik...Bye."

"Bye, See you soon," he said.

Ruhi went from there...

"I love you, Ruhi, and I will propose you soon... Just wait for a while."

Kavya's Home...

Ruhi's pov

After leaving college, I quickly came to Kavya's house and what I saw here, her main door was locked. I think she has gone somewhere. I called her again but she is not even answering my call for a few days...don't know, why she is doing this...I don't know her whereabouts too, as Choti maa had sent me to Nani's house after my last exam when she came to know that Daadi scolded me so I haven't met her for a month and I have come this morning...

I will come again in the evening, maybe she will come till then.

After 20 minutes, I reached my own house and saw Choti maa waa sitting in the drawing-room alone.

I screamed in happiness while showed my trophy and certificates, "Choti maa, Look, I have topped my college"

"I am very proud of you dear, like every time you have topped this time too...Good!" said Choti maa while embraced me.

"Thank you, Choti maa."

"Ruhi, Have you won first prize in the portrait competition?"she asked

"Yes Choti maa, Do you know, Bade Raja Saheb himself has given me this certificate and trophy as he liked my portrait very much and said, whenever I will ask anything from him, I can go to him without any hesitation."

"Great! Ruh, it's really amazing news, now go and get fresh, after that, we will have our lunch, and I made your mong daal halwa which is your favorite," She said.

"Ok, Choti maa, I will come in a while... Choti maa, Had Kavya came when I was not here?"

"No, dear, Why?"

"She is not picking my call For few days and she is not on her Home too, that's why I'm asking you"

"Don't worry, she will be busy with her work.

I nodded and said, "maybe, you are right."

Author's POV

Ernest and Edward are playing the snooker game in their penthouse.

"I'm proud of you Ernest... You have won the businessman of the year award this year too...I really want to tell this whole country, after all, who is Edward's eldest son and the Crown Prince." said Edward with a broad smile as applying the chalk on the tip of his cue.

"No Dad, this is not the right time, I still have to replace that mastermind who is behind those fucker businessmen," said Ernest while hitting the black ball which directly falls in the pocket hole.

Edward hummed as listening him and leaned towards the snooker table to hit the balls.

"Dad, Are you happy with Roberts' work? ... I mean, he is doing great work for one month," Ernest said as gazed at him.

"Of Course, Ernest, I'm glad with his work...he is loyal to his duty and work...that's why I have given him such a big responsibility of My daughter."

"Right, Dad."

Evening time...

I reached kavya's home again and now the door was not locked, I rang the doorbell and after some seconds door was opened, and I saw Kavya who opened the door and hurriedly embraced her, "Where have you been? why didn't you pick my call and Why didn't you come to college? Huh?" I asked in one breathe.

"Relax Ruh, Calm Down, and gets Inside after that I'll give your all answers," said kavya while holding my hand.

But then I notice her face is Looking paler, and then I asked, "Kavya, Why your face looking paler? please tell me what happens to you when I wasn't her."

She still holding my hand and said, Ruhi, please sit,"

I nodded and sat on the chair and she also sat beside me and said, "Have you remember, you have told me about those farmers who have continuing requesting to chote Raha saheb to help them."

I nodded and looks towards her in confused look.

"My Parents is also one of those farmer, Ruh?"

"WHAT?" I got completely shock to hear her but as far I know they had their own land then why they did go to Sonu landowner? That's why I asked her, "But hadn't you have your own land, Kavya?"

"Yes, we had, but our land is not much fertile as much as him so maa and papa took his fertile land on rent, because of greed, that they will get a lot of profit and they will also return all his money, but due to lack of rain, the farming was not good due to which they did not give him that much money. So he mortgaged our land papers to him and now he has sold that agricultural land too and he is not returning our land papers as well because he wants money in exchange of paper and Chhote Raja Saheb is not listening to any farmer's request, so upset by all this, papa tried to commit suicide and now he is in the hospital, Ruh,"she cried vigorously.

I didn't believe to hear this that uncle tried to commit suicide, Oh God and I never seen her state before,she is my brave girl How can she become this week?, "kavya, calm down, don't cry, you are daring girl so why are you crying and why didn't you tell me before? Huh?"

"Because I came to know from that bitch, Riya that Rima aunt had sent you, your nani house because of your daadi that's why I didn't want to bother you,"

"No kavya, you can never bother me, as I consider you my sister and Rakesh Uncle gave that warmness to me for which I always yearned and I consider him as my own father so don't worry Kavya, we'll both replace a way,"

She hummed.

"Kavya, why did they not went to bade raja sahib as we know, he always listen everybody's request and gives them justice." I said.

"Ruhi, the bade Raja Sahib has come from Delhi only yesterday and that chote raja sahib has made all arrangements that no farmer should dare to go near him, and due to this act, there is a complete doubt that he is also involved with Sonu landowner."

"Yes, you are right Kavya as chote papa had told us that even he didn't listen anyone request when all farmers had gone to request him."

"That's why we are very stressed Ruh,"

"Kavya, I have an idea why don't we go to Bade Raja sahib?"

"Have you gone mad? Well why would he let us meet the bade raja sahib? We can't enter in the palace, Ruh, we are not their guest."said Kavya in disappointed tone.

"Kavya, we can go," then I told her the whole story of my entire day in college.

"Congratulations, Ruhi, you have topped the college, Great news!"she said while hugging me tightly.

"Hmm, that's why, we can go to him, got it."

"Thank you so much Ruh, I will never forget your this favour."

"Don't say like that kavya, you always stands beside me in my difficult situations.so this time I will help you with all my heart,"

She hummed and said," Do you want to meet with papa?"

"Yes,"

"Let's go, I'm going to give them their dinner,"

I nodded.
