Arshia POV

It's unbelievable how one event can change how you live. From that day onwards,me and him have grown a lot closer. His constant checkups after that night warmed my heart,him talking me through the events of his day sparks unknown flames in me and whenever we come closer and something romantic melts my mind. It feels as if my mind has melted and has been shaped how he wants it to be.

But what made me fearful as each day passed,I knew we were getting closer to Krishnaa's swamyvam and there,it will all start. The world's most deadly war will begin. I have said this over a thousand times but when I entered this era,I had never thought how I would face the great war. I still don't know if I will be a part of it but merely thinking of it makes my heartbeats faster. I look at Angraj like it will be my last day with him soon and it hurts,it hurts like hell.

Maybe I have grown a liking towards him.

The epic was now clear in my mind. I thought it was foggy but all of it came in.

"Rajkumari, Vasudev Krishna has arrived in Anga" A dasi informed.

I dropped the brush I was using to paint and looked at the dasi, excitement clearly in my eyes. I stood up and nodded at the dasi, dashing off to meet Govind.

And there he stood,beside Angraj. A huge smile formed on my face as I rushed to them. The sounds of my anklets grabbed their attention as both of them turned to me. A smile took over Govind's face. He spread his arms, expecting me to hug him.

I halted in front of him,tears of joy forming in my eyes. I bent down and sought his blessings before I hugged him. He softly rubbed my back and held me tight. He must know what I am thinking now-a-days,of course he does!

I pulled away from the hug and simply stared at his face. Now I know why he is a God...

"Arshia,how are you?"

Oh,how I have died to hear that voice.

"I am great,shri Krishna. How are you?"

"Happy knowing that you are great"

.

No one POV

"What is the reason you have come here, Vasudev?"

"I am going to Panchal,for some important work. I thought why not visit my dear sakhi"

The smile on Arshia's face never left.

"Panchal?Why?"

Karna questions.

"To greet the two fire twins, Rajkumar Dhristadyum and Rajkumari Krishnaa"

Karna nodded.

Krishna turned to Arshia and passed her a knowing smile. He pulled her closer for a hug and whispered

"I wish I could stay a little while longer but I unfortunately can't.
Arshia,today,from this very moment your purpose to come here will begin. The purpose of you witnessing the Mahabharat will start and whenever in need,just call me out. I will forever be there for you and if I don't respond, remember your mother,okay?"

Krishna pulled back and smiled. Arshia slowly nodded.

"I have to go unfortunately. I will see you two very soon"

He patted Karna's shoulder and walked to his chariot, passing a last glance at Arshia.

"Angrani,we are here to cook. It's fine"
