Jai POV

"Veer?" mumured Allegra.

My Sanju were the first thoughts that went through my head.

Allegra opened her eyes and just grabbed me tight. Vikram and Eadlyn blushed. Naina was just looking suspiciously. Piyali looked ...I don't know...Jealous. But why? It's not like she loved me. Did she? As I was hugging Allegra, I felt like hugging a stranger and not my Sanju.

Allegra started crying.

"What happened Allegra?" Asked Vikram.

"Who is Allegra? Vikram Bhaiya where was I? I remember them taking me away."

Who?

"I don't know Veer. It is a blank. There were masked. They took me away to a lab. They poked and prodded. That's all I remember." Sanju started whimpering.

Aunt America and Mom rushed into the room.

"Where is Sanju? My princess? Call May immediately" asked Aunt.

"Aunt Am, I thought I was your star?" asked Naina with a smirk."

There is my little girl. Aunt went and hugged her. Sanju hugged back. At that time, Piyali rushed out of the door. I think she felt like she was intruding in on something. I followed her out leaving my Sanju with everyone else.

Piyali

She ran faster. I ran behind her. I caught her hand and turned her towards me. She had tears in her eyes. Then she hugged me. I felt at home.

"Jai, I love you." She said. I was shocked.

Piyali POV

Jai, I love you.

Did I just say that? Oh no! Shit!

I am so sorry your highness. I wish to leave the selection and go home.

"Piyali, you will not be able to leave till we get back to the palace. Enjoy the wedding and then you can go." replied the prince stoically and left my hand and went away. Far away.

"Miss Piyali shall I guide you to your room?" asked a maid in a pink palace attire. I agreed.

She took me to a room. It was well-furnished.

"Ma'am, this is your room for the stay. Your neighbour is Princess Naina. You share a balcony with her."

Okay thank you.

My heart was breaking. How did I lose my heart to the wrong prince? Why?

Naina POV

After all the drama of Sanjana returning. We all returned to our rooms.

Karti hai har gaane pe mom meri kuchipudi...kuchipudi sang my phone

Oh no! Mom calling.

Yes mom.

"Naina we are coming tommorow. Me, your father and Amrit-Nimrit. I am so happy we found your sister. Just imagine. She will hug me...blah...blah..."

K bye mom. I am going to sleep.

"Okay sweety. Good night."

Why did I not feel so excited on seeing Sanju, the way I thought I would.

I went to the balcony. There was already someone there.

Oh isn't that the girl, Piyali...the one Pia was talking about.

Hey balcony mate. I am Naina.

She turned to me crying.

Hey hey what happened?

"Naina, I love him."

Who?

"Jai" She came and hugged. I immediately felt like I should protect her. We sat like that for some moments till she realised that it was time for her to go.

"Princess, I am so sorry for burdening you."

It's okay.

I went back into the room. I asked Rose, my maid to go and call Jai.

After a few moments Jai walked in.

"Yes Naina, you called."

I told him what he had to do.

"What? I love her. I told you before about it."

You trust me right, everything will be okay.

"Okay. I trust you Naina. That's why, if not I would have never agreed to this,"

Good boy. Now go and get a ring ready.

Allegra POV

I am sleeping on a bed in a silk nightgown. How soft it is. My very first silk nightgown.

"Princess, it's time for you to get ready." A maid came and told me.

They brushed me. Helped me wear yellow saree. Apparently Eadlyn was going to have an Indian themed wedding and today morning would be the Haldi ceremony. I went down for breakfast. All the selected had reached including the two new ones except Piyali.

"Hey sis. Today mom and all are coming." said Naina. I just smiled.

We all sat on the big table for breakfast. I spotted Jai coming down with a box in his hand. I think he is going to propose. Judging by Pia and Vikram's snickering faces that seemed likely.

I looked at my hands. They were cleaned and manicured. Perfect.

Jai went and sat in his place while all the others settled down. Piyali came rushing into the room. She was the last to enter. Namita glared at her. She quickly went and sat at her place next tom me.

We began having breakfast.

"I have an announcement to make. I am going to propose today."

I beamed. Jai came walking towards me. Then passed me...
