Since the incident yesterday Siva has been distant with everyone and decided to go to her Mahadev for complaining. So she woke up early in the morning and did her morning routine before doing pooja in the palace and went to temple alone.

Seeing Siva everyone greeted her politely as she walked inside the temple after washing her feet and went to the small pond praying to it before she dipped herself three times and came out taking the pooja basket into garbha gudi without changing. She handed the pooja basket to poojari gaaru who asked "Sivamma how are you legs now?"

"I'm fine poojari gaaru please do archana on my husband's name" Siva politely said making poojari gaaru nod chanting mantras as she joined her palms and closed her eyes praying to her god.

When she opened her eyes she felt a presence beside her and turned to see Narsimha Raayala as poojari gaaru came out and handed her the prasaadam along with pooja basket and nodded at the ex-king out of politeness.

She took the pooja basket as Narsimha Raayala asked "How is he?"

"How do you think he'll be once he achieved what he wanted for years?" Siva countered back the question and started walking away not waiting for his reply.

"Siva, you've to help me. Mahi is not in his right mind his head is filled with misunderstandings right now and only you can show him the truth" Narsimha Raayala tried to convince her.

"There is nothing more he wants to know and I don't want him to suffer again by trusting you. If you really think there are misunderstandings then prove them and I'll be the first one to stop him from doing anything to you or your family" Siva simply said and walked towards the entrance to see Deva waiting outside the temple leaning onto the side of the car.

He straitened seeing her along with the ex-king and chose not to comment as Siva smiled and walked towards him as Narsimha Raayala slowly walked to them observing Deva closely.

"You should've come inside" Siva said and put vibhuti between Deva's brows and put the prasaadam in his mouth making him narrow his eyes and took off his jacket and put it around her.

"Mahi I-" before Narsimha Raayala could say anything Deva said "There is an event in my palace tomorrow and we're closing rocketry deal which needs your involvement. But don't expect to come close to me" before putting his arm around Siva and made her sit in the passenger side seat before getting into the driver's seat and drove off leaving the ex-king on the road.

"Why didn't you take someone with you?" Deva asked.

"It was instantaneous decision and... I wanted to be alone" Siva said.

"You are never alone" Deva seriously said making her narrow her eyes.

"I was for three years" Siva reminded him.

"Were you?" Deva smirked at her making her nod "Yes. I wa..." Siva trailed of suddenly as if she remembered something.
