22//💕 Mysterious Mystery

After watching one more episode of the cartoon show, Varenya leaves Raghuvendra's room to go find Kiyansh to play with him. However, when she doesn't find him anywhere in downstairs she decides to go to the upstairs in Kavyansh room. Because, she knows that her Kiwi loves to spend time with his father.

But when she comes near the room she hears the sound of breaking things. So, she quickens her pace and arrives in the doorway of the yet she isn't able to walk getting scared of the situation of the room. She looks around the room and her eyes widen when she notices that Kavyansh is going to punch to vanity mirror with his bare hand.

"Mister Prince!" Varenya shouts successfully stopping Kavyansh to punch the mirror.

Kavyansh swiftly turns around and face Varenya who is now looking at his hands which are already filled with various cuts. But what makes the situation more than worse is the blood slipping out of the cuts. Because seeing the blood, Varenya's lips starts trembling while her body starts shaking in fright as she starts walking backward.

"B-B-B-l-l-ood..." Varenya stammers not able to form any sentence because her eyes are getting blurry as tears starts coming out of her eyes.

Seeing the terrified look on his Lotus's face, Kavyansh totally forgets about his own anger and instantly runs towards her. But Varenya backs away instantly looking at his bloodied hands with such raw fear that it's sent chill down Kavyansh's spine.

"Lotus, I am completely alright. Baby, this is not real blood at all." Kavyansh says the first thing that comes in his mind. But Varenya shakes her head still looking at the blood in Kavyansh's hands who is trying to talk to her gently.

"No...no...b-b-blood..." Varenya keeps on saying this just as her face starts turning red as if it's getting hard for her to breathe.

Kavyansh feels helpless because he understands that if he tries to get closer to Varenya she will freak out more. So, he decides to take someone's help. But thankfully Samarth arrives there in time making Kavyansh to take a sigh of relief.

"What's going on here?" Samarth asks looking confused at first but then his eyes widen a little seeing the condition of Varenya who is still looking at Kavyansh's injured hands.

"Varenya, look at me. Come on look at me." Samarth tells Varenya putting his hands on her shoulders making her turn around to divert her mind.

"What happened? Why are you looking so scared?" Samarth asks Varenya while signalling Kavyansh to gets inside the washroom with his hand so that Varenya can't see him.

"S-s-o-o much b-b-blood..." Varenya lets out with very difficulty trying to turn around to see Kavyansh. But Samarth doesn't let her turn around by putting a little pressure on her shoulders.

"It wasn't blood. It was red colour which Kavyansh uses in his paintings." Samarth says softly making Varenya to shake her head in denial.

"Okay, we will talk about it later. But first you need to take some deep breaths. Come on follow my lead and do as I am doing." Samarth says showing how to do breathe in and breathe out which Varenya follows. They do the exercise for a few minutes and when Samarth is sure that Varenya is feeling better, he walks inside the room holding her hand while Varenya looks at the broken things on the floor.

"You keep sitting here, okay? I will go and help Kavyansh to clean his hands." Samarth tells Varenya who is now sitting on the couch.

Varenya doesn't say anything in response just nods her head slowly still busy looking at the broken things with a frown present on her face. Meanwhile, Samarth walks away from there and knocks on the door of the washroom. Soon, Kavyansh opens the door to find Samarth standing outside.

"Where is Lotus?" Kavyansh asks in a low tone.

"She is sitting on the couch. Now, let's get inside and let me clean your cuts or your Lotus will starts getting panicked seeing the blood." Samarth replies hitting Kavyansh in the forehead making his hiss.

"By the way, what happened to you suddenly? I mean I haven't seen you loosing your cool before if I don't count the time when you got the news of Varenya's plane crash." Samarth remarks cleaning the small cuts of Kavyansh's left palm.

"I lost my cool again for that matter but this time the reason is totally different." Kavyansh replies with greeted teeth.

"What do you mean?" Samarth asks giving a confused look at Kavyansh.

"I will tell you everything later. You clean this cut quickly because Varenya is alone." Kavyansh replies to which Samarth nods his head in response.

Soon, both of them walk out of the washroom to find Varenya sitting on the couch with her legs pulled up to her chest with her head resting on the knees. Kavyansh and Samarth looks at each other with concern seeing Varenya being so calm.

"Lotus..." Kavyansh calls out softly making Varenya to lift her head to look in his way. But what makes his worried is the blank look on her face.

"Is Mister Prince okay?" Varenya asks with no emotion in her voice.

"Yes, I am absolutely alright. Actually, I was trying to find my phone because I had to make an important call. So, while searching for the phone I made this mess." Kavyansh says with a smile but Varenya shakes her head in response.

"Lying is bad, Mister Prince. Varu saw that Mister Prince was going to hit the mirror." Varenya remarks making Kavyansh to clear his throat while Samarth looks away to hide his silent laugh. But Varenya notices his shaking shoulders so she throws a cushion towards him which hits him directly on the face.

"Don't laugh, Teacher Uncle." Varenya says glaring at Samarth who quickly nods his head because he knows Varenya's anger perfectly.

"Umm, Lotus why did you get scared earlier?" Kavyansh asks.

"When Varu saw the blood Varu got scared. Also, Varu started to imagine Mister Prince being hurt and when Varu tried to save Mister Prince, Varu couldn't do it." Varenya replies while Kavyansh and Samarth makes eye contact.

"Has this happened before as well that you saw blood and got scared?" Samarth asks to know more.

"Varu doesn't remember." Varenya replies but Samarth has understood something that may help them in Varenya's case.

"Mister Prince..." Varenya calls out making Kavyansh to hum in response.

"Varu didn't like that bad girl. Mister Prince is only Varu's so only Varu will look at Mister Prince." Varenya says possessively looking at Kavyansh who nods his head with a big smile on his face remembering an incident from the past.

"Of course, I am only yours and will going to be only yours forever." Kavyansh replies making Varenya to smile.

Flashback Starts:

Kavyansh is waiting in the canteen for Varenya to arrive as they are going out for the first time as a couple. It's been only a few weeks since both have expressed their feelings towards each other and now they want to spend some alone time away from their university life.

Suddenly Kavyansh feels a hand over his shoulder making him think that it must be Varenya. So, he turns his head with a smile but next moment the smile leaves his face seeing that it's one of Varenya's female batchmates.

"Hi, Kavyansh. How are you doing?" The girl asks leaning down a little which makes Kavyansh to feel uncomfortable.

"Umm, I am good. How are you?" Kavyansh asks politely not wanting to be rude. Also, this is his girlfriend's batchmate so he doesn't want to create any unnecessary drama.

"I wasn't doing well from the morning. But now after seeing your handsome face, my mood has refreshed instantly." The girl replies caressing Kavyansh's shoulder with her finger tips which makes Kavyansh to feel disgusted.

"Are you going to take off your hand from my boyfriend's shoulder or do you need my help?" Varenya asks arriving there making Kavyansh to feel relieved.

"Oh come on yaar. I am just having a fun conversation with Kavyansh so don't be so possessive." The girl replies still not taking her hand away while Kavyansh face palms inwardly knowing well that the girl is definitely going to lose her hand.

"Oh, I see. Then let me have a conversation with your hand as well." By saying this Varenya holds the girl's hand and bends it in opposite direction making the girl scream which gets everyone's attention. But no one comes to her rescue seeing Varenya who is known for her short-tempered antics.

"It will be better if you stay away from my Kavi. Or next time my Scalpel will be doing the talking with every nerve of your body." Varenya warns the girl who quickly nods her head in agreement.

Flashback Ends

Kavyansh's trance gets broken when he feels harsh tugs at his fingers by Varenya who is now looking at him with a scowl. He gives her a sheepish smile and holds his ears to which she pouts in response.

"She has been calling you for last ten minutes." Samarth remarks with amusement.

"Varu didn't know that Mister Prince can dream without sleeping." Varenya says rolling her eyes and this time Samarth isn't able to control his laugh. Because after so many years he is witnessing the sassy Varenya who is known for her perfect sarcastic remarks.

Meanwhile, Kavyansh shoots a glare towards his best friend feeling betrayed. But then his expression soften when he looks at Varenya and holds her hands.

"Lotus, I want to ask you something but you can't say anything to your Mamoni. I mean whatever we are going to talk will only stay between you, me and Samarth." Kavyansh says in a serious tone.

"Okay, Varu won't say anything to Mamoni. But Varu wants to share something first." Varenya replies playing with Kavyansh's fingers.

"What is it, Varu?" Samarth asks getting curious.

"Mamoni has told Varu to not share this with anyone. But Varu wants to tell everything to Mister Prince. Because Varu believes Mister Prince." Varenya says.

"I am very happy to know that, Baby. Now, come on tell me what your Mamoni told you to not share with anyone." Kavyansh asks in a gentle tone.

"When Varu falls asleep, sometimes Varu sees big fire in her sleep which scares Varu a lot. Varu also sees Maa and Baba in the dream crying for help. Varu tries to help them but when Varu goes to touch them, someone pull away Varu and Varu's Maa-Baba gets vanish." Varenya replies looking down at her and Kavyansh's fingers.

Meanwhile Kavyansh understands that Varenya must be talking about getting nightmares where she sees her parents getting burnt in the house fire. But then a question arises in his mind which is why Meghna has told Varenya to not share about the nightmares. Even Samarth is having the same question too because he remembers asking Meghna if Varenya gets any nightmares to which Meghna has replied saying that Varenya doesn't get any nightmares.

"Varu, listen to me well. If you again gets any nightmare next time then you'll directly come to my room and tell me what happened in the nightmare. But you won't let your Mamoni know that you have told me everything. Because if you do then you'll lose the game." Kavyansh says making Varenya's eyes widen in excitement.

"This is a game, Mister Prince?" Varenya asks.

"Yes, a game of truth and dare where you will have to hide things from your Mamoni as a dare while I will be finding the hidden truth behind your nightmares." Kavyansh replies looking at Samarth who nods his head in response.

"You don't know what's happening here. These people are not what they are showing. They are more than what you have found out about them." Meghna says in the phone pacing back and forth in her room.

"What are you trying to say, Meghna? They are the Royal family of Rajasthan and very well established in the business world as well." Someone replies from the other side of the phone.

"So you're saying that just because they are Royal they can beat anyone or give direct threats to putting the person in mental asylum. You haven't seen the things which I just saw a few times ago. I am telling you that this family is not normal and that's why I am scared that if they get to know exactly what happened six years ago, they will surely kill me for keeping Varenya hidden from everyone." Meghna says wiping the sweats from her forehead.

"See, nothing like this will happen. I have destroyed all the evidence that can provide them any clue. So, if they try to investigate the matter they will come out with empty hands." The other person says trying to assure Meghna.

"You are not understanding anything. I have done a big crime which only deserve death as a punishment. So, I am sure that if Kavyansh or any of his family members somehow find out that I have killed Varenya's parents and also kept her hidden from everyone for all these years, then they won't forgive me at any cost." Meghna replies falling on her knees.
