----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Bhai, Ab kya kare??" Nakul asked Arjun whispering.
" And what was the need to tell why we ran from there!"
" We should not lie for such pretty reasons, Nakul!"
" Uff, stop being jyeshth now! You know, I am fade up with you both's satyavadita! And what if we need to tell our identity?" And the next moment, what he said, that happened.
" So, Brahmins, from where you both are?"
" Saw? I said na!" Nakul said.
" We..we are from ekchakra nagri. We came to take alm from maharaj drupad. We heard that he has doubled Bhiksha for some time."
" Oh, yes,yes, Pitashri had. But there is a big queue, Bhrahmins. Till then the time will expire. If you want to come, I will arrange it.
" Sure, Rajkumar." But suddenly Arjun's warrior instinct became active. He could sense someone's penetrating gaze on him.
" Now who is this guy who is looking at me??" he thought and line of irritation formed on his forehead. On his warrior instinct, he looked at draupadi's Chariot.
" Shit! He is going to look at me!! Hide! Hide your face Krishnaa! Otherwise you will not be that able to see your face!!"
" No, no one's looking at me! Might be your illusion, parth. Sometimes do keep your warrior sense apart!!" Arjun scolded himself.
"Brahmins, come with us!"
" But rajkumar, we have work to do."
" So where are you going now?"
" We are going behind Kuldevi's mandir."
" So okay na! We are also going. Let's go there. You do your work, we do puja, and then take the Bhiksha!"
" But can we do any service for you?"
" We'll see it later. Now go. And don't forget to take your cart!"
" Yes, rajkumar."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Draupadi was wondering in the whole path.
" What was that feeling? Why am I feeling like this? what happened to me? No, I need to talk with Govind!" And after sometime they arrived at the puja.
" So, Rajkumar, we should do our work now."
" But please come to take the Prasad. And there is also a Bhojanayojana in Mandir. So please attend that."
" Sure rajkumar"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nakul! Start your work!"
" Yes, Bhratashri!" said nakul. but he again started his talks.
"Bhai, wonder, if we find any treasur here! Then what will happen?" and started imagining looking at the sky.
" What? We will take it to home, then potter asks commission, we give it, then someone else know,, then whole kampilya know, then that attendant knows, then that weird rajkumar knows, and then maharaj knows, and put us in jail to take state property without permission; and we stay in jail whole lifetime; i have no dhanush, you have no darpan, and no one to marry, sit kanwara. So, treasure=no mirror and lifetime celibacy! Simple!"
" WHAT! Lifetime celibacy! Then i don't need any treasure!" Nakul said panicking.
" Now Maharaj Bakbak, do your work!" And took his hand together.
" OKay! Doing na!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
" Purohit Mahashay, is the pooja vedi ready?"
" Yes, Rajkumar. you both may sit for pooja. Draupadi on one corner was playing with the curtains of mandir.
"How...how could be anyone's eyes so captivating! Those hazel eyes! What's in those hazel eyes!"
" Krishnaa! Krishnaa!" she came in sense.
" Haan!"
" Come for pooja! It's getting late!" Yelled Nilanjana.
" Yes! Yes! Coming!!!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They both sat for the pooja. there were chant of mantra just like the first day. The whole session was divine. Draupadi was feeling the same heat; the same warmth near the kund; that flame had the same hue, the warmth as her creator. She was feeling thrilled to see her creator again.
" Why the devas created me? For whom am I? What my purpose of life? Am i for that brahmin? What's his name? I don't know!" She was thinking folding her hands.
" Krishnaa! Krishnaa!" Dhrisht shook her.
" Ye..yes!" she needed time to compose herself.
"What? You need to put the ghee!"
" Yeah, yeah..." and she gently put the oil in the kund.
" Hey Mahadev, Give me one sign, only one sign, then I'll know for whom am I! Just one!" She prayed internally. And a flower fell on her lap from vedi. And mabe as approval, the bells jingled together. Draupadi understood.
"Dhanyavaad, mahadev!" And the pooja finished.
" Satyajit, can you please can the Brahmins? I pledged to give them alms. Please call them! said dhrisht.
" Sure, Dhrisht."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Phew! The work at last finished!" and Nakul immediately sat down on the pile of soil panting.
" It was hectic, Bhai. I will never come again! Take Bhrata Bheem with you! I did so much, now what will you give me in commission?"
"What do you want?" arjun asked absent minded while working. And then Nakul smirked and said,
" A bhabi!"
" Uff! Again started! When you'll leave that topic?"
" When you'll come with one!"
" Then I'll not marry!"
" Listen, Bhai, those who says this, becomes advanced in it than many others!" and Nakul winked.
" Really? haan, become advanced, na? You stay there!"
" Bhai, leave me!"
" Nakul!" and Arjun was chasing him like cat and mouse. And suddenly a soldier came.
" Brahmins! Please come in mandir. Rajkumar have remembered you."
" Sure, say we're coming, no I am coming, and very quickly!" and side glanced to arjun. Arjun was still looking a him with angry glances.
" You got saved for that soldier and that Rajkumar, thank them! Otherwise I would not spare you today!"
" Now stop acting like another Bhrata Bheem and come quickly!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Draupadi was tolling around the garden of mandir thinking about that coincidence." Was it true! Or mere coincidence?" she didn't gave attention, but a flower decoration was hanging over her head. And suddenly it fell down. And it was looking like a Varmala!
" Wow! Krishnaa!" exclaimed Nilanjana and hugged her tightly. Draupadi stood it confusion.
" So what's so wow about this accident?"
" Uffo, Krishnaa! You don't know! When kumkum, sagun's haldi and mala falls on any virgin unknowingly; that means she is getting married soon! And you also might be!" Draupadi blushed and Nilanjana's description. And stammered,
" Why...why do you believe in such things, Nilanjana! This all are myth!"
" Oh come on, Krishnaa! Do you think it's myth? This happened in Shiv-Shakti mandir! So it must be a sign na!"
" Okay, so challange that it's not a sign!"
" Challenge! Mind it, if you don't get married in next six months, then you'll change my name!" Nilanjana said confidently. Then a daasi came and said,
" Rajkumari, what to do with this kumkum?"
" Umm... You kee..."
" OUCH!" a manly voice came suddenly. And at the next moment, Draupadi was in state of shock.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
" Bhai!" Will you come or not?"
" Coming!"
" Uff! So late! You stay here! I am going!" and Nakul left from there immediately.
" Pagal Ladka! No patience! Left me alone! Let me go now! Otherwise he will take whole Panchal in head!" and went in search of Nakul hurriedly. As he was going quickly, he didn't saw that, there was a cow dung. And as he kept his foot, the next moment... SLIP! He had no balance on his body. He was so busy in saving himself from falling, that he didn't even notice that there was draupadi next to him. The situation was such that even his warrior skills were coming of no use. As he was trying to keep balance with his hands, he didn't notice that someone was in front of him. He was trying to save himself by hands, but at the next moment his hands clashed with something hard. And next moment...SPLASH!!! The whole kumkum fell on Draupadi. Her mouth was open and hands on air with shock." Wha...What was it!!!" And at last Arjun could have grip on himself.
" What is this! Don't you have manner to walk! See now, what happened to Rajkumari!"
" Uffo! Ek ke pashchat ek vipatti! What is happening today! If Nakul knows, he will kill me!" and stammered,
" I... I am really sorry... I...I...I didn't see that..."
" It's okay, Nilanjana. Even I could have slipped. Let him go now!" she said with a smile.
" Wah! Hridayvan ho toh iss prakar ki! Jaane ke lie kahe rahe ho iss mastishkhin manushya ko! Have you lost it!"
" I said na! I said so i said!" Draupadi ordered in a stern voice.
" Okay!!" Said nilanjana irritated.
" Thanks, Rajkumari!" and went towards mandir. He knew his soul's plea, his heart's desire at an instance; that what changed him completely; what he didn't felt before; he knew; he knew that it was love; only love. When they passed each other, their eyes locked wishing to never end it... Satisfaction surronded them... they felt complete... And wind brushed gently the both; with a new aura in it; aura of love...
TBC...
