ONE WORD - CHANGED THE FATE (COMPLETED ✔✔)

Back To Indraprasth

"Why didn't you make me the King Of Gandhar, Mamashree Shakuni?" Duryodhan growled

"My child, how could I,when my sons have the right to the throne?" Shakuni said and continued

"I give rights to my sons but Maharaj Dridhrashtr does not give the right to his son," Shakuni said

Duryodhan muttered " You are right Mamashree,"

Karna went back to Indraprasth to meet Kunti. He went into the palace and reached the courtroom.  He was not very happy to see Draupadi and his mother bitterly crying at the outcome of the events. The Pandavas were standing next to them with lowered heads and Krishna smiled at Karna,

"Glad to see you back again, Angraaj, oh sorry! My dear brother," Krishna smiled

Draupadi and Kunti looked at Karna who was standing at the door of the courtroom

"For God's sake! Do not call me your elder brother," Karna snapped at Krishna and stormed towards Kunti.

"For my sake?" Krishna asked him chuckling.

Karna gave a sign of disapproval and turned to Draupadi.

 "Listen! Stop Crying.....I can't see you crying," Karna said and Draupadi looked at him

"Because you look exactly like a monkey, with your nose red in colour, I do not think you were born out of fire, " Karna said with irritation

Draupadi's tears vanished immediately and it turned into anger,

"Angraaj! Am I looking like a monkey?,I am Yagnyaseni, I am the daughter of fire, mind your words," Draupadi angrily told him

"No actually, you look like a skeleton, the one who has not eaten anything for dacades," Karna frowned at her,

"Angraaj,I am..." Draupadi glared at Karna

"Correction, Aarya," Karna corrected Draupadi

"Which husband insults his wife like this?" She asked angrily

"Exactly, which husband insults his wife like this," Karna looked at his five stupid brothers who were standing quiet

Draupadi looked in Karna's direction and saw the five Pandavas and she knew what Karna was trying to do. She wiped her tears.

"Brother, you deserve the throne of Hastinapur," Yudhistir suddenly said

"No thank you, I am not interested in becoming the king. I was born before our mother's marriage. I do not belong to the Kuru dynasty..." Karna paused for a few moments

"Luckily," He added making Krishna smile

Karna turned to Draupadi and asked

"Why the hell did you marry all the five of them?" He asked

"All the six of you, brother," Krishna said

"Because it was mata Kunti's order," Yudhistir said

"It is our Dharm, to obey Mata's order," Nakul said

"If your mother asks you misbehave with a woman, will you do that?" Karna asked the five Pandavas

Krishna pressed his lips with admiration for Karna.

"Our mother will not say such a thing," Yudhistir said

"Really? If she asks all the five of you to marry a woman, that too by mistake, is that fine?" Karna asked Yudhistir

"And you stupid girl! Just because you promised that you would marry all the sons of Mata Kunti, you had to marry me. The marriage is worthless when the bride or the bridegroom is not interested," 

"How would a woman feel when she has to get married to five.... I mean, six men? Did anyone think about it?" Karna asked

For the first time, Draupadi felt that someone was able to understand her. 

"I've got a bunch of five idiotic brothers. The Kingdom of Hastinapur has got a hundred and five stupid princes among which hundred live in ignorance and the other five pretend know Dharma but they do not, how pathetic!" Karna thought

"Wow, Angraaj! You have summarised the whole story in a few lines," Krishna smiled

"I hold you responsible for everything," Karna told Krishna and turned back to the Pandavas.

Krishna refused innocently,

"But what did Vasudev do, brother?" Arjun asked 

"First and foremost, do not call me your brother. Vasudev doesn't do anything but does everything," Karna looked at a smiling Krishna.

"Thank You, Aarya, for saving my honor," Draupadi told Karna

"Your honour? No. I was saving my dignity there. I am not a cowered and an incompetent man who does nothing to protect his wife," Karna looked at the Pandavas angrily and gently touched Kunti's feet.

"I am sorry, Mata, I was shocked when I learnt that you had given birth to me, I had no intention of hurting your feelings. I am sorry if I..." Kunti pressed Karna's lips with her hands

"Please do not be sorry...I am sorry for my deeds, son. Just call me Mata... once again...just once," Kunti said with gentle tears forming in her eyes

"Mata...please stop crying... else you will look like your Putravadhu... and I do not want my mother to look like a..." Karna chuckled in between,

"I look like what?...Complete the sentence, Aarya," Draupadi shouted

"A skeleton who does not know how to eat," Karna raised his eyebrow

"I know how to eat!" Draupadi shouted back,

"I don't believe you," Karna said

Draupadi's frustration increased

"I will show you how to eat...." Draupadi stormed to the Palace's kitchen, took many fruits and went back to the courtroom and began eating in front of Karna and other Pandavas.

"I don't think you would be able to finish this....skeleton!" Karna said

"Stop calling me that!," Draupadi shouted and finished the bowl of fruits within a few moments

"See! I've won the challenge.." She proudly showed the empty bowl

"Well, that is fine.... I hope you will not eat up your husbands in hunger and anger..." Karna said and turned to Kunti,

Draupadi was surprised. How did Karna know that she was hungry?

"I am still unable to understand what Dharma is....I mean... I am talking about the Dharma of Hastinapur, which is completely different from humanity...or it is completely the opposite of humanity. I will have to think a lot about this and to think, I need some peace. To get peace, I need to go back to Angdesh. So, may I? Mata?" Karna asked

Kunti placed her hand on Karna's head and nodded. Karna immediately left the palace without wasting time and began his journey towards Angdesh, unaware of what was happening in Hastinapur.
