The next day, the weather was quite calm and the breeze was like none other day. With everyone being joyous, everyone hoped the Kauravas didn't ruin the day. But they all failed at one task, keeping Indu away from Dushasan.

They both were infamously known for not being able to resist arguing the moment they saw each other.

"It's not my fault you're a giraffe!" The four Pandu Putra heard their sister scream. A slightly amused smile lit up on their face and they walked towards the source of the voice.

"It's not my fault either, that you're a small ant!" Replied Dushasan. Yes, of course, the four were angry at him for such words, but they were enjoying the drama.

Duryodhan, on the other hand, wasn't fazed at all. He had gotten used to these both fighting. Karn, standing beside him, was new to all this and he himself didn't realize that seeing these two quarrel like little kids was enjoyable.

"At least I'm hardworking and don't eat leaves all day!"

"Why are they insulting animals, its the fight between them two!" Nakul muttered, grabbing Bheem attention.

"Well, you are such a Dushasan!" Indu told Dushasan, hearing Nakul's words.

"Is that supposed to be an insult?"
"Yeah! You're existence is itself an insult to the world!"

Damn, that was a good one. She thought to herself, proud of her answer. "It didn't offend me!"

"Well, a moth even thinks its as beautiful as a butterfly!"

"Wait, it does?" He asked, relaxing up. She frowned, "I don't know, probably."

"See you're dumb as well as short!"

"Don't you dare tease me for my height, you disgrace of a-"
As she was about to say something terrific, but her Jyestha Bhrata was already there. "Stop arguing, Indu! It's not proper to insult your brothers."
"But he's my age-"

"Does that make him any less of your brother?"
"Well, no. But I wish it did!" She muttered the last sentence, loud enough for Dushasan to hear. While he rolled his eyes at her, Yudisthir asked Indu to apologize.

"Jyestha!"

"Indu!"

"He should be the one apologizing!"
"Bhrata, you cannot make her apologize for such amazing words!"

He sighed, "This should be the last time I see you both fighting." Frowning, she kept a pout on and said, "Fine."

As soon as he left, Indu turned around to Dushasan and growled, "I still hate you, giraffe!"

"The feeling's mutual, ant!"

"Again, stop insulting the poor animals!"

The five children of Pandu walked away to their Jyestha's chamber. Sitting on the seats, while the eldest sat on his bed, they talked about the recent incident. "dOn'T yOu dArE tEaSe mE fOr mY hIeGhT!" Arjun mocked her, earning a smack on his arm. "If you tease me ever again, I'll kill you!"
"You can't even hold a bow properly!" Arjun replied. "W-well, I'm still learning!"
