I was sitting all alone in the cell thinking about it again and again. Rewinding the same thing inside the mind. The cell have become so dark.
Also, the eerie silence was killing me slowly. I was afraid of that place and hugged my chest sitting in the farthest corner of the cell.
I was sniffing silently which was the only sound in the entire basement. I wish someone would come and save me.
I haven't done any mistake. Though, here I am. Getting punishment for the things I didn't commit. I never ever thought of hurting someone on purpose. But, I was the one who ends up hurt.
That's when I heard footsteps towards my cell and the whole basement lit up. I looked at the figure and it was Arjun's father.
I could feel how angry his father was. Because, it was his wife who died.
"Why did you do that?", He asked in a broken voice.
"I didn't do that. Actually, it was Aarthi. It was Aarthi who killed her infront of my own eyes.."
"The fire accident was also your plan, isn't it?", He asked further and I shook my head.
"I didn't. It was Aarthi. I'm sure about that. She was wearing a black dress hiding her face from others."
A man was dragged into the basement by two soldiers. They came towards my cell and I was able to get a clear view of that man.
His face was bloodied because of all the thrashings, his nose was bleeding and he looked so weak like he could die anytime.
"Tell her!", The emperor growled.
"Yeah! It's her who gave me money and asked me to fire the whole palace.", He said pointing his hand towards me where I was shocked.
"No! He's lying. I'm not-"
"All the evidence are against you! How can you deny that! You're going to get the punishment you deserve.", He said angrily and walked outside where the lights were turned off.
I heard punishments in ancient times would be brutal. I couldn't help but wish that I don't get any of the brutal punishments.
I started crying again in the dark. No one could hear what's happening in the basement. Even if there's any emergency, there's no better way than death.
