PART 2
Bharat went inside with a smile; he guessed who they might be. Bharat said,"bhaiya,some girls r here and they said they want to meet u". Ram said, "who? " I don't know bhaiya, they said they won't tell me they will only tell u,but I guess they maybe bhabi's sisters, the way they were dressed they can't be random girls", said bharat with a smile." let's see if your guess is correct" said Ram with a smile and a pat on bharat's shoulders and went outside.
Ram went outside and saw three girls, dressed like rajkumari, standing with a lot of questions behind those inquisitive eyes and a soft smile." Pranam yuvraj. I am mandavi, this is urmila and that is shrutkriti. We are sita didi's younger sisters", said mandavi pointing at urnila and shrutkriti respectively,with her hands folded for pranam. Ram smiled and said," I recognized u all from your dresses, so did my brother. Now tell me what you want to say. I will be happy to answer all your questions." Urmila said with an unsure smile," woh we wanted to ask whether we would be allowed to visit ayodhya to meet didi once she gets married? We have never been away from her for a long time". "please" said shrutkriti with tears threatening to fall from her eyes any moment.
Ram said with a warm smile,"ofcourse it's your right; you don't need my permission to meet your sister. You can come anytime you want. The gates of ayodhya are always open for you all."..." thank you so much yuvraj, u have lifted a huge burden from our heart, Ma said we won't get to meet didi once she departs for ayodhya, so we need to practice to stay without her" said mandavi wiping the few drops of tears which spilled from her eyes. Shrutkriti said,"ok, now that the confusion is clear we need to run away before anybody spots us here. Please promise ur brother and u won't tell anyone about our meeting". Ram said," I will not tell anyone. But u need to promise something, that you will call me bhaiya not yuvraj as you r like my sisters". "of course I will" ,said urmila still unsure why he said this. And with that the three girls ran away with a contended smile that their sister will marry a person who has a heart of gold.
Ram thought with a smile," these girls a so good and innocent, what if they could be married to my brothers. I will talk to rishi vishamitra and all the elders"...
Note: In ramanyana, I have felt that another relation totally left out was the relation between lord Ram and his sister-in-laws. As all relations in ramanaya are deemed ideal, so I tried to bring out the ideal aspect of this relation as well. Do tell me whether I passed of failed. 😳
