---------------------part 5--------------------they were returning back to hastinapur today and arjun was feeling...well he couldn't describe the emotions going through him at the moment..one part of him was tired he soo desperately wanted to see his brothers mother subhi and panchali..the other part of him missed the solitude of the mountains ... arguing with angaraaj will definitely be one of them both of them sitting and chatting..it gave him a feeling that the relationship between them wasn't rivalry..not friendship he doubted he and angaraaj could really be friends but it was something deeper...it was like before the king of anga told him something about himself..some part of him would already know..if angaraaj spoke about his amazing skills with the bow...the old arjun would've wanted to bang his head in the nearby wall..but now he could just feel his heart bow in silent acknowledgement...arjun was also surprised by karns protectiveness ... he had one elder overprotective brother in bheem and was sure that no one in the world could be more protective than bheem...his protectiveness was suffocating...but the way ..in the past 10 days they had spent together..karn proved to be not only more protective but in a comforting way..in a way that he dint feel oppressed and desperate for a way out but rather protected and comforted..he dint know the origination of these thought in his mind..the only person who could give him this much tranquility and peace perhaps a bit more was his madhav ... he froze was he comparing his arch rival with his best friend ?? his soul mate ?? what was wrong with him ?? was he trying to establish in his mind that perhaps karn was an better elder brother than bheem and yudhishtir ?? was he actually getting attached his arch rival ?? the faithful sidekick of the man who had been trying to kill him and his family for years ?? is he your arch rival ?? asked a familiar mischievous musical tone...he stood there stunned ...he no longer considered his arch rival his enemy...karn was just inside his tent packing .. but arjun was already feeling lonely he missed the comforting presence beside him.. karn laughing and making him laugh...he was feeling lonely he tried to convince himself ... u never felt lonely when u were sent to a 12 year old exile all alone madhavs voice echoed in his ears...oh my!!!... madhav what have i done he whispered...
karn was frustrated completely frustrated .. he had so much packing to do and it would just never get over...he collapsed on his bed..they were returning back to hastinapur today .. him and dhananjay he had started to address arjun mentally as dhananjay ...because the name arjun reminded too much of his arch rival..in these ten day he had seen the softer side of arjun..the almost submissive side..ALMOST..he was extremely playful and mischievous and kept teasing him..but karn was surprised to find that he really dint seem to mind... arjun being the favourite of everyone had invoked jealousy in his and duryodhans heart many times but spending but 10 days with him karn couldn't help but feel attached to his arch rival..arch rival and arjun even in his head these days the combination of those two words seemed funny... he'd miss a lot from these mountains...arjun had taught him how to love nature how to get lost i her otherworldly divine beauty .. the two had even played a game of snow fight .. and that night it had been freezing cold..he had stunned himself when he had gone and placed his blanket on top of the shivering sleeping arjun..for some reason he hadn't felt that cold..maybe because he was such an adherent devotee of bhagavan suryanarayan...he dint know..but most f all he'd miss arjun sweet melodies which woke him up every morning..he'd miss making him laugh by telling him crazy things..he'd miss trying to cook with him and fail horribly every day and both of them will either have over cooked or undercooked food..but to karn their tasteless food was hundred times more tasty than what the cooks made in the palace..he sighed too many emotions where going through him w\. what did he consider arjun inhis life as ?? a friend ?? an acquaintance ?? he imagined the feeling of killing arjun in the battlefield...usually he'd have a feeling of elation whenever he imagined that .. even though a small part of him would always protest..but now the thought of arjun dieing..the thought of that musical voice never waking him up again..those blue eyes forever put to sleep..made an icy fear grip his heart...
yes karn admits that he likes arjun...but arjun is still in denial cause well he's a kid ..karn is much older than him hence much more mature...
anyway next update : dice game
