Not Samragini Draupadi But Just Krishnaa

Mango Shrikhand

Prativindhya, Satanika, Sutsom and Shrutsena were sitting near their mother in a circle as she was serving them more. Meeting their mother almost after a whole day they can't stop blabbering about the whole day to her sometimes cutting and over speaking on each other. Even the baby Shrutkarma sitting in her lap while she was feeding him, was talking or more likely blabbering in his own alien language to her.

"And then Sutsom-"

"Bhrata Shatanika you are lying!"

"Then Sutsom simply ate all the mangoes that we had managed to bring down the tree," Prativindhya continued as Sutsom pouted.

"I did not!" He protested feebly.

"Acha! So where did all that mangoes go?" Shatanika asked raising his eyebrows as if daring him. Sutsom simply showed all his teeth, one of which had fallen down the previous week. Draupadi remembered Shatanika teasing him that he is going to become the next Shakuni Pitamah who had also lost his teeth during a war. Sutsom had simply cried out loud thinking that he could never eat or the fact that he will look like mamashree sakuni when he will grew up. All this while Bheem and her had to console him about how normal it was and that he would grow it again. He only stopped when he was fed with the laddus, makhan and kheer made by her. Bheem had been quite upset and was pouting like a big baby when he had learned that his son had finished all the laddus and kheer made by her blaming that she didn't made enough. Her Sakha, Vasudeva Krishna was even more dramatic when he learnt that there was no makhan. Though there was no pouting-sorry correction, occasional pouting, she could recall him speaking dramatically here and there in her presence,"My Sakhi no more cares for me!" "My friend forgot me after getting her beloved sons" "No one loves me anymore here!" "This was not expected of you Sakhi."

She was amused to see the king of Dwarka being such a dramatic friend. Even though she was at the moment busy glaring at Arjun who was laughing and at the same time exclaiming like a poor husband deprived of his wife's love.

"She has forgotten her husband also Madhav. Always running behind her sons!"

"She ignores me like this too! Imagine a poor man, after toiling hard day and night in war comes to his beloved only to be pushed out of her chamber!"

In her defence, he didn't brought her oranges and pomegranates when he went to visit Kimripur. Also forgot about his promise to take her shopping. Last but not the least he went to horse riding alone with his Madhav when he promised to take her too. Selfish forgetful man!

Nakul was taking full enjoyment of it. Her mischievous husband! She will see him later. Let him come inside her chamber once!

"She atleast makes something for Bhrata Bheem and you Bhrata Krishna! Ask about me and Sahdev. We are no longer in her list of priorities."

"So who prepared you those diet controlled food you insisted to eat? And who takes out her so called 'precious time' to learn about horses from you? Even though I don't understand anything.And who saves you from Swami Bheem and Swami Arjun when you messed up! The list goes and goes on. See na Swami how they are teasing me," Krishnaa complained to Yuddhisthira who was seeing them with a fond smile on his face.

"Anujo! Don't tease her. She is my beloved Samragi. So what she doesn't give me time like before? So what she loves and adores our son more than me? I love her like before and you have no permission to tease her," Yuddhishthra concluded solemnly but his eyes twinkled in mischief, something rare in samrat's eyes. Everyone burst in laughter while Draupadi turned red in embarrassment at his open declaration of love. Though it wasn't anything new, Yuddhishthra and Bheema were extremely vocal of their love, the former though a bit less than the later.
