The Fateful Evening Part l

Part title

Draupadi  closed her eyes and prayed. "Govind show me the way to withstand the test and do justice to  other Pandavas . I am not able to take away my mind from him. "
As she opened her eyes she felt krishna's voice so nearer. "Sakhi. Don't loose your willpower. You are not an ordinary woman. You are Sri, herself.
Draupadi  asked him desperately ."How can I get through my marital life with Eldest thinking about Arjun?"
Krishna answered firmly. "Did you find any one not in love with Arjun? Pitamah, GuruDron,Gandhari,  ...even Bhanumati,    Every one love him. So why can't you love your own husband all your life?  "
Draupadi listened to the magnetic voice mesmerised . "Sakhi,very few people are there created by God who enjoy universal love. Parth is one among them. Of course apart from me."krishna said mischievously . We both are loved by one and all and you are not an exception. Sakhi,don't restrict your love for Parth to physical plane. Make it spiritual. Then you will never find fault with yourself even if you think of him despite being with another Pandava. "
Draupadi realised the essence of krishna's words."sakhi, Gopikas think about me even when they are with their husbands. They won't incur sin for that. I hope you understood. "
Draupadi felt relieved. Krishna's words gave her immense strength and self confidence. "Yes Govind I understood. Even if I think of Arjun, I'm not at fault. "She thanked her Govind for always being with her though he is not with her physically.                    
Arjun landed in Kamarup desh at the foot of the mountain peaks and looked around. The place was beautiful and prosperous. He immediately met the king not in his palace but in his camp at the foot of the hill. The king was highly delighted to meet the greatest archer of Aryavarth who achieved so much in such a young age. He praised him with superlatives like ,it is really awesome how you hit the fish target with such precision. All my citizens worship you like god. As for my teen age daughter,she dreams one day she will definitely meet you in person. "
Arjun's face changed colours. "Maharaj, it is so nice of you all to honour me with so much love. But I want to deal with my purpose of visit immediately. I hope you will cooperate. "His voice sounded firm making the king stand on his toes. Now he is all attention and answered all the questions of Arjun. He informed him that the demons will come every fortnight to collect their ransome. All the precious jewels,rich food materials what not.They will take whatever they want. And That is why  he is unable to pay the tribute to Hastinapur.  Demon king and his army commander are so adept in all kinds of warfare that includes illusions and magical weapons.
Arjun asked the king. "When is their next due date? "The king said that it is after two days and he is making preparations to meet their demands. Arjun ordered him. "Stop the preparations. You would refuse the ransom this time. Declare before them that you won't pay anything.

Draupadi looked at the blue cloud. Go and tell him his soulmate needs him earnestly.He, whose complexion is more radiant than you. O, chirpy  naughty breeze,go and disturb his  curly locks and tell him his beloved needs to feel his touch ,as soon as possible, O,singing birds,sing your song of love before him that reminds my deep love for my Arjun, the season of love will get lost,with some one else claiming your own Krishnaa as his,Don't you feel like looking back,Don't you see the love in my eyes that happened,flourished only for you? The beautiful fragrant frame made only for you helplessly  awaits the touch of commitment ,love only from your artistic fingers,that wield the bow like no one else do. The caress on my cheek,the peck on my forehead,the incomplete kiss on my lips fiercely wait for you Arjun and no one else. The unbearable moonlit nights, torture me in you separation reminding the cosy night we spent,return at Hastinapur garden..
Come back to me Arjun,claim your Krishnaa,as yours only before the rules,norms hierarchy breaks her heart and suppresses her love that is for you,that will be for you only Arjun and no one else.
