"Brother Mothers and Gurudev have came too ". said Bharat with heavy heart.
"Mothers have came" said Ram sobbing .
"Gurudev have came" said Lakshman crying.
"Yes brother they have come " said an emotional Bharat.

"Bharat for God's sake please don't become stubborn this cannot happen " said Ram as he was trying to calm Bharat .
"No brother you have to return to Ayodhya with me and accept the throne " . said Bharat requesting.
"How can I break father's promise I cannot break the rule of the Raghukul.
" said Ram .
"The boon that destroyed a happy family and a peaceful kingdom cannot be a boon but it can only be a curse I repent the time when Queen Kaikeyi asked father for this boon ". Said Bharat angrily.
"I repent the time when I and Mandavi went to Kekaya if we were in Ayodhya at that time , father would be alive today ".
"I repent why I took birth from Queen Kaikeyi 's womb if I would not be here then you would be the king of Ayodhya " . said Bharat emotionally.
"No Bharat don't blame yourself you are innocent whatever happened is just a game of destiny ". Ram said consoling Bharat.
"Brother please return back and accept your kingdom " said Bharat requesting.
Bharat found Mandavi 's hand on his shoulder as if trying to give him the strength needed at the point of time.
"Brother I can never look my reflection everytime I will look at myself I will feel that I am the reason for this tragedy and this condition " .
"Bharat calm down please Bharat calm down." said Ram trying his best to console Bharat .
